GOOD EFFECTS OF
SAVINGS BANKS
Small saIaried People are Giver
the Chance to Save Their Mites
for Hard Times.

Tn to a few years ago the savings pank,
5esiyne1 especially for small deposits, was
practically unknown in Richmond
At that time, however. when working
men were busy and getting good salarles'
enough to provide for themselves and their
families. with a surplus. and the STARRED
clerks we're looking around for some place
to put their money, the savings banks
hogan to appear. with sound. substantial
business men behind them
In northern and eastern cities the saw
ines bank has been an institution tor
years. and, as a consequence, the people
whose salaries are moderate have IN those
localities been enabled to save their extra
dollars. and thus to accumulate little
fortunes, which in the course of a fe"
years were sufficient to place out i'll loans
while other bank accounts were started
In the South the small-salarled people
are now beginning to realize what soou
the savings bank accompishes. Sma4i
sums in many cases as small as III cents
are taken at these banks, and interest IS
paid on them as long as the money Is on
deposit.
The expenses of running the savings
hanks are small There are not as many
clerks to be paid off The president
receives no salary, and about the only
salaried officer is the cashier, who does
the work of teller and clerk, ard thus
gives the depositor the benefit of the dlVl-
bends.
Already in Richmond the saving fever
is becoming epidemic There are now
six savings banks here-the Provldent'
United Banking and Loan. Savings Bank
of Richmond. Union, Prudential, Loan and
Trust, and the Dime.
These banks are doing a large amount
of business, and many thousands OF COL
lars have been entrusted to them by the
working people. who are realizing the good
thu. is being done them.
Within the past six months the business
done by the savings banks has increased
about % per cent, and the limit mas not
vet been reached.
AS a result of the establishment OF these
savings banks the smal-salaried men ana
women who are now saving Their extra
mites will within a few years reap tAe
benefits that are bound to come.
