The Southern Automobile College,
Oak Ridge, offers a special Jnne
proposition to students from the
schools and colleges, and automobile
owners "> fit them for pleasant

iffeurs and garage bills.
Noth. ng that has occurred In Gull-ford
county in many years has
created more intense excitement
than the mysterious death of»Mrs.
Ida Ragsdal* Hill, who was found
dead In her room at the home of her
mother, Mrs. J. 8. Ragsdale, at
James own. last Thursday morning.
Tho lirat impression was that a foul
murder had been committed, and this
belief only intensified the excitement.
There were signs Which caused those
first on the scene to believe that
burglars had entered the horse-
There w<re what were thought'to
be eviden es of the presence of in-truders,
and it rwas easy to reach
the conclusion that the unfortunate
woman had been killed. Her body
was tound reclining on the floor
by the aide of the bed she
had occupied during the night, a
strap from a suitcase in the room
wrapped around her neck and fasten-ed
to the bed. A stocking and a
black cambric mask had also been
partially s'uffed into her mouth.
The horrifying discovery was made
shortly after 7 o'clock, and immedi-ately
Dr. J. R. Gordon, the family
physician, was summoned. The phy-sician
found that life had not been
extinct for a great wh'le, as the body
was still warm. Sheriff Jones was
notified and went to Jamestown by
automobile at once, being accom-panied
by Deputies Weatherly and
Crutchfleld and Coroner Wood.
Upon arriving upon the scene Cor- j and Mrs. Taft at the White House

A Differential Rate of Interest.
Many savings banks are in the
habit of classifying their depositors
into two classes, paying one a lesser
rate than the other. The difference
is usually one-half, or one per cent.
Some make three classifications, and
pay three, three and one-half and
four per cent. The theory Is that
the sm. 11 depositor will be encour-aged
thereby, for the higher rate us-ually
applies to deposits under $1,000.
although In some instances running
as high as $2,000. The rule usually
is, the higher rate up to a certain
sum and the lesser rate on sums
above. Some banks pay, say, four
per cent, on $500, and three and
one-half on all sums if in excess, ob-viously,
unfair; for a deposit of $500
will get ten dollars for six months,
while $501 will get but $8.77.
The usual result is either with-drawals
of the oversurplus, or a
general scheming, by opening joint,
trust, or fictitious name accounts, to
get the higher rate, which obviously
defeats the purpose in view. As
Keyes reminds us, if the Institution
can afford to pay a uniform rate it
is much better, for to label a $500
depositor "poor'' and a $501 deposi-tor
a man of "affluence," makes a
class distinction—again without a
material ditference, and often de-prives
those who need and are just-ly
entitled to as high an income
as is possible, as, for instance, a
widow who. e only income is her sav-ings
bank deposit.

The Benefits of a

Tho benefits accruing from a
savings account are manifold.

smallest benefit produced. To
lay aside a "snug little sum
for a rainy day" is a com-mendable
undertaking, and
certainly worth all the effort
any savings account ever re-quired,
when the "rainy day"
comes. Bat satisfying ae
these benefits are, they have
not the merit that comes of
the training acquired in suc-cessfully
conducting a savings
account. To have learned the
principles of economy is to
have your Independence and
happiness assured. Such are
some of the great values of a
