Show t ff S1w. THE SUMMIT COUNTY BEE ,v.Vi Busy green Friday, October thumbere ...SWwi 531. rasr BMR,. the Fish t In the good old days children learned early about the virtues of thrift and saving. They would stash all their cash in little glass banks until they got enough to make a deposit in the big commercial bank downtown, where a bespectacled clerk wearing a green eyeshade would take the money and record the transaction. Nowadays, despite the emphasis on economic education for our children, things dont work that smoothly. In the first place, inexpensive coin banks dont seem to be around much anymore. An expedition to a nearby shopping center recently showed that the cheapest coin bank to be found there cost $1.37. It was a tin globe map with a slot in the top for coins. Other kinds of children's banks found there were piggy banks ranging from $1.75 to $25.00; a $2.49 "coffin" .bank which features a skeletal hand reaching from behind a shroud to rake in the coins; a for $1.69; and a plastic gumball machine-ban- k $12.50 number which has Santa Claus dropping coins down a chimney. . All of this leads to the question: By the time a child saves up to buy one of these banks, won't he or she lose some interest in saving? Of course, youngsters can squirrel their coins away in mayonnaise jars, but these containers don't present much of an obstacle to "withdrawals. There's another thing. All banks and savings and loan companies dont offer the same interest package. Some-othese institutions wont pay interest on savings accounts with balances less than $10.00. This might mean that a youngster would have to save that much if he or she wanted to get the experience of putting their money to work for themselves. On the other hand, some of the commercial firms encourage savings accounts for children and will pay interest on balances as small as one dollar. So when your youngster starts a savings account, "shopping" for the best deal could be educational experience. As for savings coins, what this country needs is a good five-cepiggy bank. Hatchery.
