Maine Man starts One for Every
Child Born In HE Town.

J The financial world has surely mol
hitherto had much startling news to
chronicle OF Thomas Dinsmore, Of Pal
ermo. Kennebec county, Maine. says
the American Banker. That gentle
man has not surprised the commu
nifty into throes OF admiration by the
establishment of hero funds nor the
foundation Of any libraries. He has
not been identified with any huge cor
poration engaged In cornering the
earth. for the earth's good. no doubt.
nor has he purchased highly priced
works of art and presented them to
an ungrateful country that insists
upon his paying duty on the gifts.
But in way Mr.. Dinsmore seems
to have cornered all the praise and
gratitude in his locality and he GER
tainly has a monopoly in his particu-
lar industry.
At present he is engaged busily In
presenting new bankbooks showing a
five dollar deposit TO each new baby
which arrives In his community. II
will be seen at once that this is not
only excellent for the banks and fine

lihood prevent any appreciable tend
ency toward race suicide.
Some time ago Mr.. Dinsmore be-
gan the practice of presenting every
school graduate with new handbook
and one dollar. The good work OF this
gentleman is necessarily limited, but
he has sounded the depths of the coun-
try's need. Not by railing against
capital and capitalists nor preaching
equality and the equal distribution of
property will the evil OF huge
money concentration be remedied. BY
teaching foresight and judicious saw.
ing to the children and inculcating a
spirit OF desire OF possession in the
beginning of their education he will
do more toward increasing the aver.
age wealth of the people than any
other project yet put forth,
Massachusetts, fairly conservative
state, calculates that its people save
on an average 80 cents a week
each. The absurdity OF such figure
in the face of the extremely high rate
OF wages is patent 10 every sensible
person. 1t is high time that the cit
izens OF the country began to realize
that more economy. thrift and indus
try on their part would change the
which they consider dan.

tion OF the subject will show that
these qualities are what made the
