I have neyer voted for a protective tariff on any article. I have never} ed for any other subsidy in that class of legis-| lation, and I don’t believe in it.

He contends that banks themselves ought to act like good fellows. He points out that any good fellow nowadays is Iable to vary his signa- ture a bit, according tw the prevailing qua'ity of ‘the beverages ‘obtainable under the restrictions of the Volstead law, and he argues that a fellow's bank ought to make allowances for that fact. Even a dull fellow sometimes exper- jences a certain mystical thrill in signing his name. As a gesture, the operation might be more dramatic if it could be done by ptessing one’s thumb print at the foot of the check or document. That would have some thing of the theatric value of the tyrant signing a death warrant ‘with his signet ring. Monarchs of the Middle Ages couldn't write and their signatures were made with monograms devised for them by their cclerkly scribes.
