BARD for the thirty-eighth consecutive year heads the Gowanda (N. bank as president of that institution. This is a record for good-i service in official capacity 1 that is hard to find duplicated. Bank President Bard has seen fortunes made and lost; has seen children come into his'baak with their small savings; has watched those young people get their right start in lif'e; has seen them ripen into useful manhood and womanhood; has seen them buy homes, invest in business and attain a comfortable station in mature age. And he has seen the other kind, homes broken up nd families separated through lack of the inclination to save.

All through thesevjhirty-eight years President Bard has attended to the business of running his bank and assisting his townsmen, proving himself the right man for a big job-Few today can come near to that mark. We make' a science of entertain-' ment- sending out music from the throat of the ten thousand dollar a night opera singer direct to the wire that stretches i from the little barn to the smaller farmhouse far away.

Thus in seven seconds, with that gun, one good marksman might kill eighty men even more, if they stood one behind the other, in which case ons bullet would do for several. It's a convenient little killing machine, weighing only fifteen pounds. The fighter can use it like an ordinary gun firing from the shoulder, or he can spray the enemy with bullets, firing from the hip. The process can be made as Interesting as quail shooting, and much more exciting. If a soldier sees one enemy he fires one shot, which is enough.

If the shot flushes and sets Running a whole covey of the enemy1, he can pick them off one at a time while his forty bullets last. What more could you ask of a gun?

Picture a family group, the youngest babe of less than two years, sitting about a table in the dingy room of a tenement and stringing tags in the daily struggle to keep the wolf from the door. Grandma is very eld and almost blind. She works by instinct, through the mechanism of repetition.

Baby is very young, it is true, but, like grandma, likewise -works in 'a mechanical way, not by instinct but in imitation of the mother. There are other dramas and tragedies high up or down low in the teeming tenements of Manhattan, the Bronx or Brooklyn, but they are unknown to those who are too busy or too happy.

AY (Utility Bulletin.) William Murdock firet made gas from coal in 1792, the slimy black coal' tar that remained was merely an objectionable by-product.

Because it was an unavoidable, part of gas manufacture, phemists have been experimenting with it for a hundred years Thus far more than 200. compounds have been discovered in; it, and a history of its products is in large part a history of modern chemistry. In 1823 naphthaline was produced from coal tar, and two yeaFs later benzine. Aniline, originally distilled from indigo, ani the base of a thousand and one coal tar dyes, was discovered In.

Public gratitude went out to men who would take a chance on building railroads. The public was even willing to help build them and to let investors get and keep-all they could make out of them. Now we have railroads. The country would not be what it is and could not get along without them.

Now that we have them and along with them considerable feeling that they cannot be killed offr much public thought and effort of statesmen are working on. the line that they may be subjected to any restrictions. Railroads are to be held to requirements which forbid any but the profits of our best' securities and endanger any. profits at all. i The best of them are making On Spitting on Sidewalks.

Editor, Buffalo According to the highest medical authority, the habit of spitting is a distinct menace to the health of the community. Who does not-remember that during the influenza epidemic in 1918 the papers carried daily cautions against the habit? Warning placards were displayed in all public places and street cars bore a huge poster reminding people generally that spitting is, a -Sure way to spread the disease and that arrest and fines are the legal penalty for every offender. A public opinion that tolerates such a' disease-breeding habit could scarcely be expected to protest because it is unesthetic; otherwise, indeed, not only would the habit in question have vanished from public places long ago, but billboards would have'become a memory, leaking ash-r carts and cans a bad dream and dirty streets merely a haunting nightmare.

S. More About Flappers. Editor Buffalo Enquirer: Mrs. wants the public to stop picking on the "flappers." Well, we haven't said a boo for a long time. She tells us how comfortable the "flapper etyie" is.

By the "way, which style does she mean? For1 a year ago skirts -were four and three-quarter inches above the knee; today one and three-eight inches below the foot. One year ago, one yard and two Inches of goods made a pretty nice dress for an ordinary flapper, today six yards will hartlly be enough for the smallest flapper iri.Erie county. May I ask: Are all these styles equally Mrs. "Emancipated" says she is a happy married flapper. Life is too short, and so were the skirts a year ago, but they were prettief than the skirts used today.

And then I saw The congregation gathered there, Anch watched in solitary awe The tiger lilies bowed in prayer, Each tall fern raised a leafy frond In benediction.
