impressive style. The capital and
surplus employed in the banking bush
ness In Detroit have more than dou-
bled during the past ten years. and
Detroit bankers have met the difficult
situation brought about by the rapid
growth OF business with consummate
skill, steering a safe course between
too much conservatism. such as might
have held back the growth without
warrant, and the danger OF being car
ried away by the wave OF speculation
into risks that could not realize the
optimism OF the enthusiastic promot-
erS.
In the recent critical period In the
automobile industry Detroit banks
were found absolutely unframed and
performed a great service to the coun-
try In helping to avert panicky
state OF mind despite the pessimism
that emanated from eastern banking
centers. Detroit banking institutions
are rapidly coming TO rank among the
big factors In the financial AFFAIRS OF
the country.

The great increase in the use OF
candy is not attributed altogether
to the boost In population. The
manufacturers say that they are
nowadays working along three lines,
namely, TO please the eye. the palate
and the pocketbook OF the patrons.
At the present time there Is a bet
ter grade OF candies being made than
in times gone by. The candy Is also
being sold in a more sanitary con-
dition than formerly.
For instance. much OF the best

Better workmanship is also being

WONDERS WORKED
! IN CITY's STATUS
IN DECADE
Detroit Called "0vergrcwn Village"
Ten Years Ago, Now Recognized as
Commercial Center, With Rapid
ly Expanding Population.
Automobile Leading Factor in Great
Industrial Growth-Gateway To
B Canada.

II was a very general opinion
throughout the country that the De
,froit OF 1900 was nothing more than
h somewhat overgrown village, a
slow conservative unprogressive city
with little ambition and less business,
II city OF retired lumbermen and min
lers who built their homes In Detroit
after spending their active careers In
more wide-awake fields.
Whatever measure Of truth there
was In this criticism In 1900 there Is
mo one who would venture TO make IT
to-day. The facts about Detroit are
known In every corner or the country
jwhere a Detroit-made automobile has
.,stuck its hood, and would be too
!strong against any such assertion. In
1890 Detroit was thirteenth among
the cities OF the United States. While
Ht was ono OF the substantial manu-
!facturing cities IL was regarded as a
city rather out OF the line OF Industrial
sprogress. No one could deny It's
great natural advantages, as to situa-
ton, both from the standpoint OF the
manufacturer and from the standpoint
OF the man who was to make the city
his home, but somehow the business
did not seem to be here.
X Then in the short space or ten
years there came the awakening, the
slow conservative city put on seven
league boots and made such rapid
strides that II made up for all the OPP
portunities that had been lost in the
past in the short period between two
census enumerations. Today Detroit
s. recognized as one Of the half dozen
cities OF the United States that have
q metropolitan future before them
and are taking advantage OF the OPP
portunities for progress in every line.
S. The census of 1910 showed Detroit
TO be ninth in population among the
cities or the United States and one
Of the fifty great cities of the world.
The astounding record OF growth OF
So per cent In population in ten years,
q larger portion of Il within FIVE years,
established its position In the eyes
or the country.
At the present rate OF growth the
population will be more than 100000
BY the time the next census is taken.
and Detroit will be established as the
sixth city In the United States follow
