IT WILL GROW.

Children, sometimes after planting seed,
dig it up to see if it has commenced to grow
The seed by being disturbed never sprouts,
and all gain from it is lost. Depositors
sometimes take their money from the Saw
ings Bank to see if they cannot make more
of it by some other means, and failing to do
SO they return it. By withdrawing it they
lose the interest for six months.
A tree grows very slowly. You cannot
see it grow. Still it does grow. So with
your deposits. The increase seems at first
very small. But it is great deal more
rapid than you suppose. Any sum at COM
pound interest will double itself within
twelve years.
BE patient then. Let what you have al
ready deposited remain, if possible, and
add as many small sums to it as you can.
National savings bank., 1868-06-01
THE NEED OF EDUCATION.

In settling up their contracts last winter
the colored people, in many instances, were
surprised that so large an amount had
been charged against them by the planters
for provisions and wearing apparel fur
nished them. This surprise has been occa-
stoned by their inability to keep their own
accounts, or to read the accounts kept by
their employers. In some cases. We fear,
the laborer has been defrauded. Some en-
ployers have been base enough to take ad-
vantage of the ignorance Of the laborer to
cheat him. But even when the account has
been correctly kept, the amount has run up
faster than the poor laborer supposed.
Now, were he able to read and write, and
keep his own accounts, he would have
known all along just how his account stood,
and there would have been no disappoint-
ment.
From this you see the need of education,
and the Importance of attending the schools
which are now open, especially the night
schools for those who cannot attend during
the day. You also see the necessity for
educating the children, so that they will
be able, when grown, to manage their own
business matters. And to do this properly
you need to save your money. Education
is worth to your children more than money.

TERMS
OUR REPORT.

Our patrons will observe that for the
month of April, the drafts on our bank were
greater, by over $1,000, than the deposits.
When We remember that for March the
deposits, On the other hand, were greater
than the drafts by nearly SIS, 900, so sudden
a change may appear strange and need an
explanation.
The facts are that the heavy drafts of
April were made for use in farming and
mechanical operations for purposes of
trade, etc. The Cashiers at most of the
branches keep an account of the purposes
for which deposits are withdrawn and re-
port the same to the principal Office. An
extract from. the Cashiers letter from Mo-
bile covering the drafts for one week, reads
as follows: For building, 1923; transfer of
funds to New OrleaLs, $780, to Oberlin,
Ohio, (for tuition of students there $40
travelling expenses, Sl6o; purchase live
stock, 1925; for trade, $1,000; for use,
speculation, and other causes, l.9l9 o.
Our readers may learn from the above
the general movement Of the daily life of
the colored people who deposit with us.
They are going forward in their various
avocations; looking out for the main chance;
observing how an honest penny may be
turned by taking note of the market-just
as other men are doing from day to day and
from year to year.
1t is therefore for purposes of legitimate
business that so heavy drafts have been
made in April, falling upon that month
because it is the natural season of opening
activity, when the various crops are being
sown and planted and the industries Of man
called in to cooperate with the renewed
vigor of nature. We see in this proper
use of money, pledge of large deposits in
the coming season Of reaping and harvest
ing, when the liberal percentage which
the bountiful earth always yields to the
hand of thrift shall overflow into the vaults
of this Bank, and the deposits which now
count by hundreds of thousands of dollars
shall be, as we trust, increased to million.

SAVINGS BANKS.

In the State of New York, in January,
1867, there were sc Savings Banks, having
4s8,5o2 depositors and $l3l, 769,o73 in de-
pcsits. This is vast sum. Suppose there
are thirty millions of people in the United
States-that sum of money would give
every man, woman, and child 1925. One
person in every eight in the great State of
New York, is a depositor in its Savings
Banks.
Il the State OF Massachusetts, very small
