In commenting recently upon the stability of a great majority of the banks In the United States, Pr. Harold Stonier, Educational Director of the American Bankers Association, said: "The fact that we have so many banks that have been In existence a long period of years Is an eloquent tribute to the genius of American managerial ability, for no other country has experienced such wild gambling eras and resultant periods of business stagnailon as tboe through which our country tits passed at frequent Intervals during the past century" five NEW WEALTH FROM SOIL New wealth which tomes from the toil Is of special Interest to those to falls the responsibility of maintaining our credit structure. t'nlcss agriculture Is successful Urm borrowers cannot ultimately succeed, neither can the t anks they serve.

Can you call, or shall I or one of the other men bring them around?" "I ll call," smiled Elsie brightly, and Bob found himself smiling rather eagerly back at her. After she had gone he explained and likewise assured the brothers, one and all, that It was their duty to produce something or other for the bundle for the Industrial mis sion. Ronald Price was responsible for the package that followed, but he never would have thought of It If it had not been that Bob Williams Insisted that Ronald should donate his old raincoat and his second pair of shoes, not to mention al! the neckties he owned but two. and all his winter underclothes to the cause. "You're a senior," Bob told him. "You'll soon be earning money and you ran buy some more by the time winter comes around." So the bundle was assembled. Ronald took upon his shoulders the task of packing It up. and the next afternoon Bob waited to be able to give It to Miss Dresden when she called. He asked If he could not go with her to the mission so he could help carry the bundle and before he had left her he had dated her up for the next Saturday night house dance. That night Bob discovered that his spring suit that only suit he owned beside the one he was wearing and his tuxedo btd disappeared from bis closet Ronald Price said that It seemed only fair. He had sent Bob's suit Bob Williams made no comment, but the next morning early he found his way to the Industrial mission. A brisk looking whltehalred lady, apparently rather nearsighted In spite of thlrklensed glasses, was at the desk In the reception room. "Is there something I csn do for yon. young manT she said, and right assy Bob knew she was Elsle'i grandmother. "We have some nice things this morning This was an opportunity, thought Bob, It would be easier getting hit suit back this way than by explaining the prank and making himself out as an Indian giver. "I was looking for a suit, ao'a I could go to work," said Bob with assumed wistfulntsa. The on Vm wearing Is borrowed." Bob hated to He to a lady, but the situation seemed to wsrrsnt the falsehood. With a little maneuvering he picked out his own suit and retired to another room to try It on. The kind old lady Insisted that a dollar was quit ample to pay for It and threw a half doicn rather good second hand ties and some shirts Into the bargain. Later when Els! Dresden knew Bob much better she told hlra how she had first begun really to admire him when he gave an almost new ault to the Industrial mission. Her grandmother had told her that she let very poor young man hare It a poor down and wit fellow who was trying to get Job. And ven after they were engaged Bob did Dot tell Els!

That pronouncement came out at the recent meeting of the National Committee for Mental Hygiene. Dr. James S. I'lant, director of the Newark (N. J.) Juvenile Clinic, told the assembled doctors psychiatry has Jus-- t learned that the child mind is no simpler to understand than the adult mind, and that their failure to realize this may be responsible for the appalling number of delinquent and maladjusted children. Well we shouldn't be surprised. Only, what a pity that the experts in this field didn't long ago consult a few ordinary mothers, or some teachers who knew their Jobs. Had they even paged enough Imagination to recall their own childhood, they need not have been so late In discovering what to all who understand children is an obvious fact The child mind as complex as the adult's?

It must be said, after some adult who doesn't know where he Is going, but doesn't care so much as the child! For the child's very world depends on the answer to these thoughts. The adult's world Is formed and however well or badly he may be adjusted to It he at least knows what he ts up against. Far be it from me to paint adults as sure of life or ourselves.

The mission, she said, needed all the old clothes they could get. They sold the garments at a very small price to men who applied for help and shelter. Sometimes, she said, all the men needed to get back on their feet again was a decent suit of clothes. It was hard to get old clothes. And It had occurred to her that the men at the fraternity houses would have lots of clothes to discard before they were really at all badly worn. No one thought enough more about it to get together anything for the industrial mission. Then one afternoon at about five, when Bob Williams was reclining very comfortably before the open fire. Miss Dresden drew up in her flivver and with Jaunty walked to the front door of the fraternity house and rang the bell As was the custom, Bob Williams, being nearest the front door, opened It, and straightway he knew that this Elsie Dresden was a very welcome number.

Plans for stimulat Ing wider use of informative newspaper advertising by banks in promoting public understanding and contidence in regard to exslting banking conditions and methods have been announced by R. S. Hecht. President of the American Bankers Association, as a part of his organ izatlon's activities In aid of recovery A general groundwork was prepared through a nationwide survey of advertising by banks relative to their willingness to extend justifiable loans to industry and trade. This, he said, revealed that a large number In all parts of the country are pursuing aggressive policies along this line and encouraging their customers to develop forward-lookinbusiness plans. "It is our aim to aid in fostering this constructive attitude wherever possible," he said. The association's Advertising Department, under the direct supervision of the general executive officers, has prepared, at the headquar ters in New York City, an informative advertising series for the use of member banks in the association to aid them in developing in their own communities better general public understanding regarding banking, Mr. Hecht said. based on helpful human relations and that it has a unity of interest with the people of its community which binds them together with a common purpose," he said. "We are confident that if a clear understanding of this is brought home to the people In all our banking communities, it will go far in restoring the public confidence which good banking deserves. A bank In which people deservedly believe Is doubly safe. It la to the public inter est for the people to have confidence in their banks. "We feel that bauk advertising has a special public duty to perform in this connection under existing conditions. The copy which will be supplied in the service we have developed will not only aid the Individ ual bank in promoting the use of Its own facilities but is also aimed to bring about with the aid of newspaper advertising a clearer public viewpoint regarding its essential place in the life of its community." Mr. Hecht emphasized in regard to the new advertising facilities being offered to the members of the association that they are not a profit making venture and that there Is no intention to disturb existing advertising arrangements, the idea being that these institutional services shall supplement rather than replace present plans, or that they will give assistance to member banks lacking satisfactory arrangements.
