NEWS

THE KANGAROO The kangaroo is the only animal in the world that never educated its feet. It can't walk. And it can only half fly. So it sits up on its hind legs and gets where it's going in leaps. There are many criticisms like this we might make of the kangaroo. It travels by jerks, like a local train. And if it lived in an icy country it could leap ten feet and slide a mile and have it on all of us. But there is this to be said for the brute: It certainly goes in for convenience. It jumps its rivers and ditches and obviates bridges. And as for the mothers of the kangaroo race well, show us the American woman who can put her baby in her pocket and go shopping.

The day'B work is done an 3 Doe is warm and tired. He leaves the great Gary steel mills. He must convert his pay check Into money to buy things that he needs for his family. He can go either to the Binzenhof. the banks (which keep open during pay periods) or stop at certain store or any saloon. Steel company checks arc as good us gold. Joe Doe reaches tho FUnzonhof. It is a warm day and the place is crowded. He gets in line by the door and advances in his turn to the cashier's counter. In the meantime a couple of Gary detectives are on watch to see that pickpockets !o not operate and a couple of armed watchmen stand guard over the thousands of dollars In coin and currency loaned from the bank to cash the checks. In a brief time John Doe reacne the. cash counter and shoves his check for $46.8:) to the cashier. He gets back $4o.S."i the "bank" keeps no pennies on hand. Then. John Doe can either step out, or if not he may go behind the partition where a squad of courteous bartenders, busy ringing cash registers and handling drinkables, will give him service. If it is Sunday or a holiday that John Doe comes out of the steel plant and is thirsty be gets no refreshing aids at the Binzenhof, but 'first must proceed at least as far as Xinth avenue. The Binzcn brothers, who are said to be one of the largest clients of any Gary bank, each month handle vast sums of money, more so it is said than a cashier at another place, who boasted he had ?10. 000.000 paps through his hands during the past few years. Before the pay day rush begins a member of the firm proceeds to the Gary State Bank,, negotiates for a temporary loan and then a negro porter or two. guarded by policemen, moves the money from the bank to the saloon. When 'the pay day rush is over the management reurns to the bank a huge piie of checks, and these are handled expeditiously because of the use of adding machines at the saloon. The saloon's cash checking work takes a li.ad off all Gary banks. Loth the Binzt-ns attend strictly to business and neither touches a drop.

prosperous real estate magnate, comes to his business in his motor Ted has a hobby for getting a new car every year. Each brother owns an spartmen building. Michael is also interested in orchard lands, and Ted with well known steel officials and a couple of business men .is one of the owners of the flvestory Gary theatre, seating 1,400 persons and exceeded in size by only one theatre in Chicago. The theatre is. regarded ss a credit to the town. Ted is also said to be interested in the laundry business. Both brothers, who are rated among the rising moneyed group of Gary, are said to have a high business rating with bankers, authorities have never had theleast occasion to call their attention to any violations of tho law on the contrary they have praised their methods. Counsel for the Binzenhof find their uuties concerned solely with business affairs. The trade is accorded courteous and prompt service, the check cashing accomodations being one of the best in the state, and the high-class methods of saloon management, which the Binzens have worked out are said to be regarded as models. So smoothly do things run in Gary that elsewhere, where steel companies have been bothered by Inability to solve the saloon problem. It Is declared not to be the case here. This condition probably contributes in no little measure in giving local and out of town steel and subsidiary officials more time to work out plans for the workman's welfare, a social science that Is being highly developed at Gary.
