In the same way the State OF
Washington, Colorado, Nebraska,
and others show similar results.
The net bonded debt of the City
of New York, approximating about
$500, 900, 600, is less than the re-
sources of this company, and the
entire valuation of the City OF
Pittsburg, Pa the greatest manu-
featuring center in America, is
only SIG. 100000 in excess of the
MutuaPs assets.
The outstanding common and
preferred stock of the Atchison,
Topeka & Santa Fe system is S216,-
900, 900, and of the Baltimore 4
Ohio road s1O1, 100000. At the
selling price today the Mutual
could buy these systems, thus con-
trolling nearly 10, 900 miles of rail-
way, completing a line from the
Atlantic to the Pacific. After
making the purchase, the Mutual
would have money enough remain
ing to add to the system any one OF
several lines reaching from the
lakes to the Gulf. These compare
sons may sound grand-eloquent,
but they are based ON facts, and
serve to reveal the wonderful
strength of the Mutual. Lest any
one should be alarmed at this dis
play of wealth concentrated into
one corporation, it may be said
that the assets are owned by
thousands and thousands of policy
holders, scattered in every state
and territory in the Union. TO say
that the aggregation is dangerous,
is the same as saying that tn Getty
of New York is a menace to society
because it's people are possessed o
over one thousand billions of prop
erty, or that any state is a danger
spot because of its prosperity.
j. d. Caldwell, special agen
for The MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE
COMPANY Of New York, is tenn
porarily located in Grangeville.

School Notes.

Frank and Lulu Richardson
have left school.
The football eleven is practicing
daily in preparation for the. game
with Denver, next Saturday. This
will be the first game of college
football ever played in Grange
Vile and will be a treat for those
who enjoy the college game. The
pupils are manifesting considerable
spirit and enthusiasm. and will be
out in full force to encourage the
players.
We are trying to make arrange
ments with the Denver school for
joint debate, and it is quite proba-
BILE that several of our young deba-
ters will 60 to Denver in the near
future to meet the contestants
chosen from the Denver schools.
We would like to arrange for a
joint debate or an Oratorical con-
test with the Mt. Idaho or Cotton
wood schools.
The G. l.. S. furnished an inter-
esting program last Friday evening,
and number of patrons and friends
of the school encouraged the men,
bers of the society by their presence.
We appreciate the interest taken
in our school by the people OF
Grangeville but we wish they would
visit us oftener.
From the report of the U. S.
Commissioner of Education, we
learn that fifty per cent Of all child
rem who enter the first grade leave
before the close of the fifth, nine
ty six per cent do not even enter
the high school, and only one out
ola hundred graduates from col
lege. In some respects it is appar-
ent that this report can be fully
verified in our own school. There
are few people in every commu.
nifty who have no interest what
ever in schools and education,
many whose ideals in this respecr
are far below that standard which
every parent should encourag,
and insist should be carried out il
the schools, while there are other
who are always ready and willin,
to make any reasonable sacrific,
for the promotion of school inter
ests, yet when we are placed fac
to face with the plain facts connect
eb with these matters, few, w
dare to say are ready and willin,
to believe that such condition
exist. One of the greatest evil
that the teachers of our schoo
have to contend with is that man,
of the pupils leave school befor
the end of the school year and conse
quently are not present to tax
the final examinations for promo
, ton. Many times it is absolutel
: necessary for some of the pupil
from the country districts to leay
} school to work on the farm, bu
We can see no reason for. pupils
living in town, stopping school
The teachers are making specia
effort to keep all pupils in schoc
to the end of the year aud we earn
} estly desire the cooperation of tn
) patrons.

STUPENDOUS ACGRE-
CATION OF CAPITAL
Owned and Controlled by
Nearly 100000
individuals.

Nearly 100000
Individuals.
From the New York Fipancier
The annual report Of the Mutual
Life Insurance Company, just
issued, does not convey to the mind
the enormous aggregation of capt.
tai which this vast corporation now
represents. The figures, $780,
900, 900, show that the company is
without doubt the largest corporate
power in the world, but the tangi-
BILE possibility of its assets can only
be arrived at by comparisons and
also by more familiar processes OF
analysis. TO make the bold state
ment that the Mutual Life
Insurance Company is more pow
erful in assets than all the
financial institutions in New York
City, considered from the stand
point of capital, may invoke sur
prise. but the assertion does not
convey the whole truth. The cap
ital and surplus of all the Clearing
House banks in New York City is
$40, 402, 700, and of the ''non-
member banks of New York,
Brooklyn, Richmond, Jersey City
and Hoboken, $500, 900 more.
The capital and profits Of all the
trust companies of New York and
Brooklyn and STA 200, 900, to this
total, making in round numbers
1919, 100000, or 500, O00,OO0 less
than the assets of the Mutual Life
Company. Thus t. IS one corpora
ton could absorb at the book value
all the capital stock of the $50
banking institutions of Greater
New York and surrounding cities
and have left 800, 900, 900, which
would more than cover the capital
stock of the thirty-three National
banks Of Philadelphia.
This of itself seems startling, but
il does not afford a real idea of the
/ potentiality of $500, 900, 900. The
entire surplus and undivided profits
! Of the 3 800 National banks in the
United States, according to the
\ most recent report of the comptrol-
! Ter of the currency, amounted to
y $3.50, 900, 900, or only $50, 900, 900
4 more than represented by the
& assets of this one company. To
carry the comparison further, it
may be said that the Mutual Life S
'assets are about one-half of the
.entire National banking capital of
1.-THE United States. In the six New
iEngland states, there were in ope-
cation on October 3lst, last, 56e
National banks with capital Of
is142 ,455, 40, and in the thirteen
Southern states, 544 National
banks with s64,17S, 45O capital.
iChe fourteen Western and Pacific
',tates reported 900 National banks
with S2S 1854, 900 capital. In Ohio
VOC National banks with $40, 2O1,.
J 400 capital are in operation, and
NE statistics show that the 1915
! sanks of Texas and the 16 banks
! 4 South Carolina employ about
2l 100000 additional. The assets
