Nation’s Financial Resources ~ Mobilized for General Good When Need Comes. » There aré more than thirty thounsand banks in the United sStates, largely owned by residents of the cities, towns and villages in which they operate. 'l'h,by receive deposits of coin, currency or credits for the: current use of business and for safekeeping, and they loan out these funds at interest to proper and profitable business enterprises, agricultural, industrial or commercial, always bearing in mind the necessity of having on hand, or quickly available, sufficient funds to meet the demands of such customers as desire to make withdrawals. . ' : To meet the demands of such customers and others upon the funds in their care bankers must maintain reserves—in their vaults, on deposit with other banks, invested in securi-: ties which command a ready market, or it may be in the form of call loans, payment of which they can demand at will.

Before the establishment of the Federal Reserve System—in 1907, in 1896, in" 1873 and many times before—the banks of the nation were unable to assist each other when panic threatened. There was no provision for effective leadership, and co-opera-tive action was out of the question. Bank reserves, carried with other banks which were no less embarrassed, were least available when they were needed most. .

'Every country bank had reserves in one or more of the larger cities in its section as.well as in the great centers of population, and since the correspondent banks paid interest on such deposits they were compelled to loan them out, usually at call. Whenever panic or the growing fear.of it led any bank to draw upon its reserves—and panic usually led every bank to do so—the correspondent, in order to meet such demands, was compelled to withdraw the money from active service and-the thousands of such withdrawals, aggregating many millions of dollars, only made the general situation worse by restricting essential business operations and in many cases compelling the sale of securities, perhaps at grievous loss.

The direct result in more than one instance was a complete breakdown of the country’s banking machinery and a prolonged period of resultant depression in industry and commerce. The great achievement of the Federal Reserve System has been the massing of the nation’s monetary armies. By this means it has rendered financial panic impossible in America and has eliminated the worst features of business depression. :

STRAIGHT TALKS . WITH AUNT EMMY

ON BEING A SMALL INVESTOR

. “It seems to me, Aunt Emmy,” said Jane, “that it is rather silly for us to be talking about investments when all we can save is about $5OO a year after all our expenses and life insurance are paid.” ‘ “You're wrong there. If you save $5OO a year you are doing very well indeed, and remember that the insurance you speak of is in the natare of an investment itself.” . “Well, I know, Aunty, but somehow investments always seem to mean dealing in lots of money, thousands and thousands of dollars. There certainly can’t be many good securities which people with so little money as we have could buy.” : © “Indeed, there are a number of good investments for the small investor said Aunt Emmy. “Even if you could only set aside five or ten' dollars a month you can be sure of one investment that you can safely make on your own Iresponsibility and that is putting your money in a savings bank, the safest and most conservative way of making it work for you. Even though the interest will be moderate, you will' feel safe. Then there are other securities you can buy, but don't buy any before getting mound advice from some trust company or bank. These investments are real estate mortgages, industrial corporation securities, public utility corporation seecurities, government securities—any one of these securities may be bought on the installment plan. You may pay as little as five dollars a month for them or as much as you want to invest.

“Of course you can never be actually positive that an investment will turn out well. Human affairs are uncertain at best. When you imvest money, what you really do is entrust your money to business men to use in a paying business. If your bank gives a good account of the corporation whose securities you desire to buy you are comparatively safe. But never use a cent of your capital for speculation. No matter who comes to you and teys you that a certain stock is going up, that it is a sure thing, don’t speculate on it. Speculating in stocks is not for our kind. You'd never believe it, but some people who are supposed to have common sensé will mortgage their homes and ruin themselves in wild speculations. The best thing for you is. to buy securities on monthly paymentg.”. :

“Can you do that, Aunt Emmy?” “Certainly, and if you start to do it you’ll soon find that you’ll be willing to do without lots of little catch-penny things for the sake of owning a nice comfortable bond.”—Anne B. Aymes.

Business English Is . Growing Much Better Business English 18 growing better. So says Mrs, Alta Gunn Saunders, director of business English work at the University of Illinois. She believes the English of sales letters has reached a standard as high as the general standard in advertising and in jour nalism. - ' To her way of thinking awkwafdness and crudities of style are disappearing.- She sees greater consideration for the artistic quality of the descriptive and narrative parts of letters. Slang, colloquialisms or slouchy English she would not have—she likes her English “moral, social and artistic” ' Evolving {8 “a free, plain, trandesmanlike style becoming to the nature of its subject matter.” But where shall we tap the source of that style? Famlliar is the sign “Tradesman’s Entrance.” Under that slgn I 8 a portal to give admittance to the crisp speeches of butchers, bakers and candlestick makers—men of lmportance with scant time to dress words lin ceremonies of speech. From them come no “stereotyped and inflated diction,” condemned'by Mrs. Saunders. Their words get up and walk around In our ears. Thelr words carry the tang and savor of their business. Possibly it might be desirable to denature the raw material -of their conversations before drawing upon them for letters, but if ‘men’s minds are to be spaded for a crop of sales, success wiil be no nearer for calling the spade an “oblong instrument of manual hus-bandry.”-—Nation’s Business.

New York Woman Acts as Surgeon for Birds Acting as a surgeon for birds is the occupation of a New York woman who performs operations upon her feathered charges and cares for their various ills. Rheumatism, indigestion and fevers are ‘some of the allments she has treated. = Surgleal operalons are performed in a completely equipped room on the third floor of the hospital she majntains. With several assistants, she is called upon to minister to the needs of more than 2,000 birds in the summer months when families leave for vacations and bring their pets to be *“boarded” in the wards of the hospital while they are gone. The birds like to be amused and show interesting characteristics, their keeper declares. Balls, beads and ribbons hung from the cages keep them from pulling out their plumage and music from a phonograph seems to cheer them when their own songs are silenced.—Popular Mechanics,

Albino Partridge Bagged

An Albino partridge, mounted, is exhibited here by George Suggs and Albert Rountree. Shot some miles from this city, it was one of a covey, conventionally covered, but was the only white bird in the flock, says a Kingston (N. C.) dispatch to the New York World. It is almost entirely®white, a few feather tips only showing the familiar brown of the species. The bird has aroused keen interest on the part of Eugene Wood, the coroner and noted sportsman, who last vear claimed to have discovered a flock of white crows near Grifton.

Chickens Dig Gold

Using her chickens as gold diggers, Mrs. Robert Rankin of Yreka, Cal., has a collection of gold nuggets ranging in size from that of a pinhead to a buckshot which she has taken from the craws of the chickens. The Rankin home is northwest ‘o_t Yreka, where placer gold is often found on the surface of the ground, and where ambitlous boys and girls can sometimes pan out enough “dust” to supply them with pocket money.

Same Knife and Fork In every meal but three in the last thirty-two years A. E. Flinn of Luray, Va., has used the same knife and fork. Both the knife and fork were found by Mr. Flinn, one in the east end of Luray and the other {n the west end of the town. The knife and fork have almost been worn out of all semblance of themselves, but it would require a fabulous price for the owner to part with them. ’ Tribute to College Girl Dr. Katherine Bement Davis, who has had long official connection with the penal {institutions of New York city, says that in her twenty-five years’ experience with penology sshe bhas never known a college girl graduate serving time for criminal offense in a penal institution.

Arouses Great Sympathy. In the picturesque setting of an old fashion barbecue John W. Davis democratic presidential candidate made an old fashioned speech to the Missouri democrats at Bunceton. Davis first stirred the enthusiasm of his monster audience of 40,000 gathered trom all parts of central Missouri a democratic stronghold by calling the roll of Missouri statesmen bygone days Benton, Vest Cockrell, Stone and Champ Clark. It was a new method of campaigning for Davis and the effect on the crowd was magical. The mere mention of revered democratic names brought storms of applause from the crowd and revels from bent be whisered men who smoked corncob pipes and. nodded approval at every word the candidate spoke,
