School Savings Bank.
Mrs. II. W. Rietow, superintendent
o! school savings banks, reported as
follows:
Your superintendent has not been
able to do justice to this department

her time, but Mrs. Brown, her assist
ant, has done good work; visited many
schools and felt much encouraged by
the Interest taken, but owing to i'll
health was Obliged to retire
Since the opening of the fall schools
have had the pleasure of visiting the
Royal School, and found the Rev MIR
Macintosh, the principal, much inter
ested in the Banking System. 1t has
been carried ON in this school for u
number of years and though not using
our system the results have been the
same, and he finds that 1t requires but
very little OF his school time. At pres
ent he has about fifty (jO) boys who
are depositing in the bank. Some OF
his old pupils now have homes of their
own, and attribute their success to the
early teachings received at the Royal
School. But a few weeks ago. one of
his old pupils stopped him on the
street to say that he had made the last
payment Oh his home. We have now
placed n few supplies in this school
and hereafter the boys will use our
Scholars Copyright Cards.
