a public reception, at which ice cream
cake, lemonade, and cigars were served.
Chief Musician Weber, in a statement

Rural Credits Aid India
The effort in every country, includ-
ing India, in the introduction Of rural
credit system has not been in the di-
rectiOn of aiding men who already are
able TO command credit on favorable
terms. The aim has been, rather, to
obtain credit for those who heretofore
have been without the pale of credit.
and it is pointed out by the friends OF
rural credits that it is not to be sup
posed that the adoption OF such a sys-
TEN viii appreciably diminish the rate
of interest at which a person now can
borrow money who can offer substan-
tial security and has direct access to
present day banks
It is pointed out that there are many
inquiries TO be answered before it Will
be safe to declare Just what sort OF q.
rural credit system country demands,
inquiries such as the following: Who
are the people for whom the credit
facilities are intended Are they large
farmers or small cu.IvatOrS2 Do they
own the land they till, OF are they
the same social and financial level OF
are there wide differences between
them2 Do they mainly require loans
for long terms for buying land. or are
their needs principally met by short
loans for working capital2 Do they
borrow mostly to stop the gaps Of bad
management or to add to their powers
Of production
The sum of the whole situation seems
to be that the best kind of rural credit
that could come TO the United States
would be that OF the German land
schaften, plus that of the Raiffeisen
banks Whether the two ought to be
tied up in one system, or whether they
ought to be maintained as separate ac-
tivities is the principal question, prob
ably, that viii confront the men upon
whom viii devolve the burden OF de-
Gliding the problems OF establishing a
system Of rural credits in this cOun-
try.

City Halls
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author of AT Good Old SIwnsh-s

IT HE American city hall is a bar
ometer of municipal honesty.
Every American city is equipped
with a city hall 1t may not have
parks, hospitals, Fairgrounds or boards
of health, but it always has city hall,
and 1t usually owes money on it.
The casual stranger can tell whether
to button up his money in an inside
pocket when arriving in an unknown
town by inspecting its city hall and in
quiring its cost. If it appears to have
been built of ordinary material and only
cost as much as it looks he can linger
with safety IN that city. But if its
cost indicates that sheet gold and pow
dered diamonds were employed in its
construction he had better travel down
the middle of the street and secrete
himself in a manhole at the approach
of a policeman or city official

ture that cost $1,000 a ton and looks
ike 81 cents is a favorite pastime with
city hall builders in those towns who
hold their noses at municiual elections
and their pocket books forever after
ward. Many crowds of earnest, impair
tial safeblowers have built grand city
halls in American cities and have re-
tired for life to live on the income
thereof. And the worst of it is the
city halls remain, and the citizens have
to view them every day with humility
and deep crimson bluhes.
Chicago Is not a phenomenally virtuous
town, but it built a city hall recently
for less money than was appropriated
for the purpose and has been proud
about it ever since. On the other hand,
Philadelphia has a city hall which
reached 537 feet toward Heaven and
smells several thousand miles higher
than that. 1t is impossible for q
Philadelphia to become naughty and
noisy about his town, because whenever
he attempts it some ribald citizen of
elsewhere asks him about his city hall.
