ABOUT THE ORIGIN OF THE POSTER BED In medevial times castles were poorly ventilated structures, with huge barny rooms, partially filled openings and lacked central heating systems. , To escape the resulting draughts and chilly atmosphere the beds were set up on a railed platform. A low ceiling was supported by a post at each ofthe four corners of the bed and a curtain was hung from the top. The occupant by drawing the curtains around his bed could thus escape the draughts and shut out disturbances. During colonial days this bed gave way to the tester bed type. The bed still had the corner posts and a roof but the draw curtains were replaced by a shallow valance of chintz or linen. Further changes modified the bed to its present poster design.

For eiample, an Improved variety of oats developed by the Kansas station, and known as Knnota, yielding from five to ten bushels per acre more than commonly grown varieties. Is now the leading variety of oats grown In that state. Seed of this variety was first distributed by the station to a few farmers In 1021.

The favorable reaction of the public toward trust department service is not accidental. It may be traced jointly to the growing intelligence of the American people In financial affairs and to advertising to the world at large the merits of trust services. Advertising used in a sensible, judicious way is necessary, a power that has accomplished much good for humanity. Among the detailed services, rendered by a trust department the one that seems to be winning favor the fastest is the life insurance truet. Life Insurance is the quickest knowu way of creating an estate. In reality it affords the possessor the opportui.it of setting up a positive monetary safeguard for his fanv'y and then paying for it on the installment plan.

"In the schoolroom of former days we often heard such phrases as, Be still, Learn by heart, Dont do that, What does the book say?
