WHAT THt BANK IS DOING.

worcester, Mass, bank mas taken
very practical way Of discouraging
the building Of tenernents intended for
the occupancy OF several families and
to encourage building Of real homes
The Worcester bank president says
that the three decker tenement house
has injured real estate values in Wor-
cester by hundreds Of thousands Of
dollars. That he gives as The main
reason for the decision Of The bank to
refuse loans on these houses and the
new plan which il IS putting into oper-
alton.
1t is a large savings bank and loans
a great deal Of money on real estate
mortgages. II has had an extensive
collection Of plans and drawings Of
reasonably priced single ard detached
houses made costing between $500
and 8, 900. Persons who are hoping or
intending 10 build are Invited to make
use Of these plans. The use Of the
plans imposes no obligation toward the
bank but are offered freely 70 the pub
lie with the purpose Of bettering con-
ditions for the benefit IF the whole
community. The bank hopes to make
more loans of the money it has for thai
purpose, but il assures the public il al
advertisement that all are welcome TO
avail themselves Of the drawings and
the plans wherever they borrow the
money to build the homes with.
Now this is business and a great deal
more; it is public service without a
string to it. The Worcester bank is not
unselfsh but its seIfshress IS leglti-
mate and helpful to others as well as
itself 1t is building up homes. That
It shall profit by it is only part Of the
plan. The whole community must
profit. And when the community profits
the bank must and will profit. This is
real business. Not the big business"
we have learned to fear. Generally
speaking the result should DE what the
bank hopes it to be, an increase Of
building inexpensive detached houses
wherein a man can bring up his family
in attractive surroundings and in de-
cent privacy" 1t looks like good work
In civics as in finance.

When Essex was condemned he en-
trusted the ring to his relative, the
Countess Of Nottingham. to convey to

prevented his wife from fulfilling her

she believed the earfs haughtiness IN
not appealing to her mercy. refused TO
exercise her sovereign preprogative in

PRESERVING A HOLIDAY.


What is to be the future of Decora-
ton Day? Is it to be preserved as its
originators intended. or is it to become
a day OF sports and recreationo These
questions are coming into mems minds
and so far remain unanswered.
To the thoughtful ones, it Is only too
apparent that the day has already lost
much Of its former sacredness. At the
present time, those who are directly
connected by blood ties with those for
whom the day was originally dedicat-
ed. form too small a per cent Of the
total population to hold the balance in
line. Already there are many places
where the day is passed by with only
a slight regard to its true Significance.
AS time passes, it looks as If the day
would become a mere holiday. day

The question naturally comes, what
can be done TO save It?

that the day be changed from the

Under What Flas?

That is a pertinent and timely ques-
ton which. according to our Paris cor
respondent. American business men
abroad are asking about the Panama
canai-wnetner 1t VIII prove beneficial
or detrimental to American commercial
interests. BY American" We here mean
those Of the United States. But 1t is
necessary to remember that there Is
another America to the south OF US,
only less great than this, to which the
waterway at Panama will be OF the
most direct interest and the inter-
course OF which with the rest OF the
world is likely to De materially affected
by the opening Of that highway Of trade
and travel
1t has long been notorious that the
commerce of the United States witf
most South American countries is nos
nearly so large as it ought to be, III
comparison with that Of Great Britain
and Germany, and the reasons for the
deficiency have been much discussed.
Conspicuous among them is the lack OF
an American mercantile marine plying
to South American ports. 1t may be
that other investments of capital pay
better than ships and that this Is why
more American ships are not built, but
is a grave handicap to the extension of
trade. Those nations whose merchant
flags are oftenest seen are likely to be
regarded with greatest favor as the ma
tions with which 1t is best to trade.
The opening OF the Panama canal
may not greatly affect trade with the
eastern countries of the South Ameri-
can continent, but 1t will mark an
epoch in the history of trade with the
rich west coast. and the question Of
dominance in the new era is of much
importance. Practically all the COM
merce to and from Chilli, Peru and
Ecuadar will pass thru the canal But
under what flag? Already we hear Of
the preparation of steamship lines Of
other nations for that service-British,
German, French, Austrian, Italian. Jap
anese, Peruvian. Announcements Of
American lines are lacking. And yet
such lines must be established II we
are to enjoy the proper benefits OF the
work which we are executing at SO
great an expense.
1t would be an unfortunate reflection
upon our sagacity and enterprise to
have it recorded that we built q canal
for the use OF others and made no use
Of it ourselves. and that spent hun
dreds of millions to facilitate the sue
cess OF our rivals and competitors. We
have emphasized the principle Of IAN
An ericen canal under American con-
troll" and 1t is proper and salutary
principle. which should be maintained.
But it Is not to be maintained by per-
mitting the canal, thru default, to be
used chiefly by non-American coun-
tries for increasing their commerce
with and their influence in American
states. we can not, Of course, exclude
their commerce. But we can and we
should send our own commerce there 20
make, it.-Eev York Tribune.
