FAIRBANKS RECEIVER
IS AFTER MONEY
. Fairbanks.--After considering
the petition of Receiver F<. 0.
Noyes, inf the Washingtoir-Alaska
Bank, to Judge Fuller, asking for
permission to make a demand on
R. G. Wood for the return of the
sum of $13,000, the court s'igned
an order yesterday authorizing
the receiver of the defunct Wasli
ingtmi-Alaska bank to make the
demand through bis attorney and
institute suit in the district court
if deemed necessary.
The petition recites that K. T.
Barnette, J. W. Hill and R. G.
Wood originally formed tin- co
partnership known as the Fair
banks Banking; Co., which was
later absorbed by the Washing
ton-Alaska Bank. The. latter in
stitution, the petition says, is
now in a state of insolvency, and
has been so for a period of over
two years. The assets of the in
stitution at this time are insuffi
cient to pay the debts by the sum
of about $200,000.
The petition recites that on
June 30, 1908, the certificate id'
R. G. Wood in the banking com
pany was cancelled, the certificate
of deposit issued to him in the
sum of $13,000. The' number of
shares held by Mr. Wood was
130. This sum, the receiver goes
on to say in the petition, has all
been drawn out. Permission is
asked of the court to demand that
R. G. Wood return the $13,000,
which, the petitioner claims, be-j
longs to the banking company’s
successors.
The petition and order wore
drawn up by O. I.. Rider, the new
attorney for the receive'!', and
represent the first steps taken by
him to bring an end to the re
ceivership.

ESSENTIALS.
(By George Matthew Adams)..
Do you want to Double your
Efficiency, your Influence, your
Results—your very life? Here’s
a Secret—cut out the non-essen
tials.
Give your Time to Things lhaL
Count.
Half the “Faithful” Employes,
the “Always-to-be-dependcd-up
oii” people that till the Offices
and Shops of the land, are noth
ing mo.e nor loss ' than just
“Spulferers,” and their Employ
ers are too blind to see it. They
do their work from day to day_I
but they take twice the Time nee. j
essary and thus Waste for their j
Employers one-half.
Give your Time to Things that
Count.
Did you eVer watch the Doer,
the Executive, the Leader—at his
job? He instantly sees the Big
things in his Correspondence;
immediately lie sees the Large
side of an Employe or of a Prob
lem. Then he dismisses the non
essentials, and sees that the Es
sentials are Done—carried out t
according to his orders. Such a i
man is usually the one, too, that]
does the most and yet always has
Time—for things Worth While.
Give your Time to Tilings that
Count.
Try to pick out the things in
your Work Today that really look
Essential. Then push aside and
away, the useless details. Con
centrate on Essentials. For you
will never Count in this world un
less you—
Give, your Time to Tilings that
Count.
