BANK DEPOSITS SHOW BIG GAIN People Have Nearly Nineteen Million Dollars in Sioux Falls Banks Prosperity of Community Reflected i Big Increase of Past Year It was not war but in spite of it that Sioux Falls continued to grow last year. No munition plants or other wartime industries were here to swell the volume of the business that crowded all the year, but the South Dakota farm crops, the prosperity of the state that in proportion to its population is not equalled in the union, resulted in a big increase of bank deposits in Sioux Falls.

Figures obtained from the nine banks this morning show that on December 31, 1918, the date of the last government call, there was on deposit in the different banks a total of 802.507. Comparing this with the total of deposits December 31, 1917 shows that there was then $14,632,981, the year 1918 making a gain of $4,169,526, or 22 per cent. Every one of the nine institutions showed a gratifying increase of deposits, one of them of over $1.000,000, one of over $750,000, and two others of over $500,000, At the same rate of increase and there is no reason to expect otherwise -by June Sioux Falls will have over $20.000.000 on deposit in its banks. Based on a population of 30.000, the present bank deposits it makes an average for every man, and child in the city of $628 on deposit. I.

(T. Johnson, 102nd field artillery, and one of the most popular South Dakota boys in service, who returned this morning from Camp Kearney, Calif, where he has been instructor since he returned from overseas last September, Radiant with health and good humor, Captain Johnson is as modest as a schoolgirl and fidgets and forgets when it comes to telling his experiences in France.

But he wears on his breast the French croix de guerre and South Dakota months ago thrilled with the story of how he caught in his hands at Chateau Thierry a German hand gernade and threw it with all his vigor back at the foe resulting in killing a crew of them. T. R. is spending a few days here with Mr. a and Mrs.

J. A. Jensen and sister, Miss. Hanna Johnson, having just been discharged from service, and expects to return shortly to Vermillion where he will resume his law course at the state university. It was there that his prowess as a football star first made his name known to South Dakotans.

Captain Johnson last saw action at the second battle of the Marne and was severely wounded in the leg by a bit of shrapnel which fortunately went through the fleshy part. He was one of 6.000 American casualties in that battle, one company having only 14 men left. Captain Johnson saw seven months of service on the French front with the 26th or "Yankee' division from New England, in one period of which he went 33 days without removing his clothes. was not afflicted with a single said Captain Johnson this afternoon, "for which ram duly thankful, although I slept between men who were not so lucky. There is mighty little danger of cooties coming over here for before you leave France you go through the delousing process.

"Charging a line of Germans was a bit different from bucking the of an oposing football team but just the same a football player in battle has a big advantage for he plunges into the fight with the courage he learned in football games and figures if he gets hurt here goes Captain Johnson went to the Washington High: school this morning to see some old chums and Principal Early at once seized him and the students were privileged to hear a few words that lacked any note of personality but were intensely interesting, after which each march by and shook the returned hero's hand.
