President knocks ont Big Army
Athlete.

Big and athletic, with the reputa
ton Of being one OF the best boxers
in the army, and noted for a street
combat at San Francisco in which
he bested a cab driver, Lieutenant
Granville X. Fortescue, a nephew of
the president, accepted an invitation
to put on the gloves with his dis
~tinguished uncle at the White House
on Thanksgiving day.
Mr.. Roosevelt came out Of the
encounter without a scratch, but
Fortescue had a blackened cheek,
which testified to the force of the
presidents right jab. Mr.. Roose-
welt was in need Of exercise and he
kept things going from the tap of
the gong. Fortescue was game and
began pushing the president SO
vigorously that Mr.. Roosevelt drove
in a punch SO stiff that the young
lieutenant went down and out. The
match ended there.

Deserters sho aid Not Vote.

Lieut.. Gen. Chaffee, chief Of staff
Of the United States army, in his
annual report suggests the enact
ment of state laws DISTINGUISHING
deser.ers from the army, adding;
III rall states and territories
should by law withhold from deser-
tiers the right to vote at national
state and municipal elections, unless
the act Of desertion be atoned for by
lawful discharge, subsequently
earned by service, it seems probable
that the most healthful remedy
practicable would be applied to the
evil and the effect would be great"
The general says that inquiry Of
men in guardhouses on his tour of
inspection elected no special reason
for desertion, the general reply
being that army life was not what
had been anticipated.

rebuked Captain Richmond p. Hob
son for abuse of President Roose-
welt, has received a note from Presi-

which he asked her to accept as an
evidence of bis appreciation of her
words in his behalf. Captain Hob
son spoke in Columbia City in the
closing days of the campaign, and
in his speech referred to President
Roosevelt as a man who assumed the
role Of a dictator and one who, il
allowed, would bring untold miseries
on the people.

them. Hobson replied that he was

CURRENT EVENTS.
America Better Than Gold.

Rather than go back to live in
Sweden, his old home, and have a
fortune, August Schneider, a young
mill workman of Butler, Pa, has
given up his patriomony and willed
it to his sisters.
The papers were executed before
Judge Galbraith, of Butler, which
involved about $500 in Sweden.
One Of the conditions of his fathers
will was that Schneider should live
on the old home, but the Swede, who
has been in the United States two
years, refused to return.

"America. and "Americans.o

l"Americav and "Americans."
A we'll known st. Paul business
man has been in the habit, when
addressing friends in remote little
known places, of adding to the
address, as a joke, the word 'Usofa"
thus; "John Smith, Hay Point,
Minnesota, Usofa." Noting the sug
g~estion of Sir Edward Clarke, at the
American tt anksgiving banquet in
London, that the name "Usona"
should be given to our country
instead of America" our citizen
asks if the word really sent over the
cable was not "Usofa." If SO hasn't
Sir Edward been stealing some St.
Paul wit? No: the word was cor
rectly printed "Usora." But it's
suggestion is by no means original
with Sir Edward. The word has
bobbed up every now and then for
forty years or more. And it is no
nearer adoption than it was at the
beginning. The claim of the terri
tory Of the United States to the
name America" has by long use
become superior to that Of the con-
%tinent, all British criticism to the
contrary Notwithstanding. We
know a North American a South

but the only unadjeotived America
is the broad domain Of our Uncle

The Savings Bank Habit.

The savings bank habit is more
extensive and confirmed among
Americans than in any other country
of the world. The statistical bureau
of the government has just published
a very interesting compilation of
savings bank deposits in all coun-
tries. From this it appears that the
United States banks are now carry
ing nearly 30 per cent, three billions
out of ten billions, of the total bank
savings of the world.
The population of the United
States is less than 10 per cent of
that of the other countries included.
Our showing in the number of
depositors is less striking. We have
only a little more than seven million
out of a little more than eighty mil
lion of depositors. That is to say
American depositors in savings
banks are a little more prosperous
than those in others countries. Their
average deposits are nearly four
hundred and twenty; those o&rthe
whole number opiS-1'ove one
bundreds1HfSYr~
Nevertheless many countries show
a larger average deposit per capita
than the United States. Ours is
only eleven dollars. Denmark leads
with an average of S96.41, Switzer-
land is second with 1922 and New
leland lis third with $49.61. In
Australia the average per inhabitant
is $43.47, in Prussia S43.10 in Ger
many $29.9S in Norway $30'94.
Germany has more depositors than
any other nation, it's total being 10,
1924. United Kingdom is third
with 1908, 469, Japan has 7,467, ASP
depositors, as compared with 1906
443 in the United States and 1885,
707 in Russia, including Asiatic
Russia.
1t will be een that these statistics
have little relation to either national
wealth or thrift. The low deposits
in France and Great Britain, both
rich and saving peoples, are pro-
badly to be accounted for by the
fact that the English and French are
large investors in securities. Even
people with small savings in these
countries buy domestic and foreign
stocks and bonds. In Germany and
the United States, apparently, peo-
pie have less confidence in CONNER
cial securities and prefer to let a v
ings banks take the responsibility of
lending and investing their savings.
We are not sure that this is the
most healthy condition, or that con-
ditions in France and England do
not represent a higher commercial
civilization.
