that no employee may leave the
bank for luncheon between the
hours of reporting in the morning
and departing when duties are
finished in the evening.
In no better way could the
Washington Loan and Trust Com
pany spend part of their profits
than by giving it back to their pat
rons in the shape of better service
in more accommodating quarters.
The Washington Loan and Trust
Company was organized little less
than a quarter of a century ago.
Its present handsome bIue-hill
granite structure was built in 1882
1890. The beginning of the COM
pany was comparatively small, but
along right lines, as evidenced by
the fact that it has continued to
grow, until today it has nearly
$4,000 depositors and more than
Sc, 100000 in deposits. The capital
stock is ST 100000, and the last an
nual report showed $950,OOO sur
plus and over 100000 in undi-
vided profits.
The service of such an institu-
ton should be considered by every
citizen of the District of Columbia
from the standpoint of interest
paying deposits subject to check,
loans on real estate and approved
collateral security. The company
also issues travellers checks and
letters of credit payable every,

Special observance has been arranged
In practically every State of Sunday,
February II, as Child Welfare Day."
ard the District Commissioners will be
asked today to similarly designate next
Sunday in the District of Columbia
Tho devotion of this day to the subject
Of child welfare is at once a memorial
to Mrs. Theodore Rirney, a founder of
the National Congress of Mothers,
which is supporting the child welfare
campaign and the beginning of three
months of steady propaganda for the
conservation of child life.
Copies of proclamationS by governors
of the various States designating next
Sunday as Child Welfare Day" have
quarters of the National Congress of
Mothers, and every clergyman in the
District has been asked to devote a part
Of next Sundays services to the child
welfare subject.
The purpose of the campaign is to
arouse greater interest in child welfare,
to stimulate the interest of those now
Indifferent to~the question, to enlist men
and women who will devote a part of
their time to an attempt to remedy eX-
listing conditions against which the con-
greSS rebels and to obtain funds to car
ry on the work.

the children, parental schools are
planned, with military discipline" Mrs.
Schoff said, "and parents are brought

be a joy to go to school and he would

an accident with an army aeroplane in

member of Company II, Signal Corps,
U. S. A., stationed at Fort Omaha, has

The stranger who steps into the
newly remodeled building of the
Washington Loan and Trust Com
pany will now feel as much at
home as the oldest depositor. Each
department is arranged in the most
systematic manner imaginable and
every one so plainly marked that
there can be no confusion what
soever. There is the main bank
ing room with its various depart
ments. The safe deposit branch
shows the greatest Improvement
over former conditions. Where
formerly there was little more than
barren, unfinished cellar, there
is now great, brilliantly lighted
room with tiled floor, a series OF
twelve coupon booths, two COM
mittee rooms, resting and consul
tation rooms for men and for
women, a trunk and silver storage
room and, finally, the safety de-
post vault with its 2,224 boxes fol-
safe renters. An unique feature
of the whole vault lies in its com.
plete protection on all sides from
the possibility of entry by burglars
All four sides and the top are Wis
ible always to the watchmen, while
an ingenious arrangement of mir
rors and lights under the big safe
constitutes absolute protection. En-
trance to the safety deposit depart
ment is afforded by broad marble
stairs descending directly from th'
bank floor, and for patrons It
whom travelling up and dow
stairs is a hardship there is pro
vided a suitable elevator.
The basement also contains
lunch room for employees and
completely equipped kitchen, whicj
takes the place of the old luncl
room and kitchen which for fftee
years has been maintained by tn
company. Luncheon is served t
all members of the clerical force

LONDON STOCK MARKET
UnfavorabIe Feeling Caused
by Failure to End Dispute
With Coal Miners. ),

LONDON. March 2.-The supply OF
money was short today and discount rates
| were firm.
The stock market ended the week with
heavy tone. due to the outlook IN the
coal trade. Consols fell "a and home rails
from !. to IL points. but copper and Nj
gerian tin shares received support and
closed steady.
American securities were quiet and
steady throughout the short session. The
market opened steady and about un-
changed from yesterdays New York clos
ing Later prices advanced on light COW
ering and closed from unchanged to n
above parity.
The stock market during the week was
naturally quietcr i'm the face of the crisis
In the coal trade, but the tone was re-
markably steady until Friday and today.
when the failure of the negotiations to end
closing in home securities: but the other
sections remain comparatively steady.
Dealers held to the opinion that the trou-
bic would be settled in a few days. and
British securities hardened accordingly,
until the failure Of the governments pro-
posals and the determined attitude of the
miners impaired q more pessimistic feel
ing, and made the closing irregular and
nervous.
Home rails finished from to ! points
lower than last Saturday and consois lost
"a, partly on account of a number of al
tractive new issues offered. The feature
Of the week end was the strength of I'M
foreground rails on rumors of buying for
control. Metropolitan traction shares
jumped 8 points and Central London stock
4.
Several Central American bonds adj
vanced on the assumption that Secre-
tary of State Knox's visit will lead to
favorable developments. The feature
in the mining section was the out
burst of speculation and sharp rise
N the price Of Nigerian tin shares, while
copper stocks continued to attract steady
support.
The American section was practical
ly lifeless. The market follows Wall
street closely and closed from UNI
changed to 3 points higher on the
week.
Lombard street is looking up credits
in view of the uncertainties of the
coal situation, and with revenue col
lections proceeding steadily the mar
ket continues bare of cash. There is,
therefore, no chance of reduction i'm
the bank rate until the coal strike is
settled, despite the fact that the banks
reserve amounts To more than $780,
