In these doubtful times of financial
Investments when savings banks and
institutions of investment are dropping
with a dull thud all about us, it is re-
freshing indeed to glance at the con-
dition of these institutions in our own
State. We submit few facts from
the report of the Inspector OF Finance:
The aggregate deposits of the savings
institutions is 1872, ITO, 742.SS. which is an
increase for the year of 81, 767, 47o.45,
and for the two years ending June ~,
1896, of $4, 2O3. S87.42. There are 9l,lS4
resident depositors, an increase IN one
year of 1852 and an increase IN two
wears of 9,1O4. The depositors resident
In this state have deposits of $26 1876
D5,63 an increase in one year OF $l,lS,-
SS5, 90 and an increase in the past two
wears of $3.167 1919. The depositors IN
savings banks have been credited with
the amount of 1919, 760.44. an increase
over last year of S45,946o7
OF the Bradford Bank the report

Banks are looking with more caution
to their loans as well as to the parties
with whom loans are negotiated. The
people, the Lord help us. have paid
we'll for our experience, and we are
not rushing with mad haste to dump
orr cash into southern and western
schemes as much as we were, and for
two reasons, first we know better now,
second, we have not got the cash to
dump. Increase of deposits in local
banks show us that we have finally
learned the expensive lesson, that
money deposited in an Institution
equipped with conservative common
sense men, at moderate rate OF III
terest is safer than the other kind so
literally patronized by us in the fifteen
years just passed.
On account of the continued illness
of the pastor there was no preaching
service at the Congregational church
last Sunday morning, consequently
a large congregational gathered at the
Methodist church and listened to an
eloquent sermon by Mr.. Lewis, pastor
of Grace NJ. L. church; Bradford, from
the text Romans i, Is, For | am not
ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.
