State Banking Associations aud at the

In the preface it is stated:
1.-THE substantial increase of nearly
four hundred and fifty million dollars,
shown In Trust company resources, as
compared with the figures Of a year
ago, together with the larger number
of companies recorded, is IN impressive
reminder that the scope of useful activi-
ty occupied by these institutions is
continually broadening and enlarging.
Considerable attention has been given
by banking associations and legislative
bodies during the past year to a revi-
sion of the. various State laws govern
ing the operation of financial institu-
lions within their respective jurisdic-
tons. This in turn has led to more
general recognition of the ~desirability
of bringing Trust company legislation.

practicable, into line with the laws
now governing those institutions whose
operations are subject to the provisions
of the Federal Reserve Act. By this
means 1t is hoped that progress may be
made toward insuring that greater de-
gree of harmony and more effective
concert of action between State and
National institutions SO necessary to
the advancement of both and to the
fullest development Of the nations

For a Great Bird Preserve

Charles G. Worthington, of East
Orange, has made a magnificent offel
to the State of New Jersey, Ia his prop
osition to give eight thousand acres OF
wild land in the New Jersey mountains
bordering on the Delaware River, for a
bird refuge and preserve. The plan he
outlines for the use of this vast area Ii
not unlike that suggested by Mrs. Sage,
when she set aside an island in the
Mississippi for the same purpose. Mr.
Worthington has had for many years
ten thousand acres at Shawnee, Monroe
County, Pa, which he has used as a
private bird preserve, and the Worth
ington Society for the Investigation OF
Bird Life has been In existence for
twenty years.
Mr.. Worthington was a close friend
OF William Earl Dodge Scott, a native
of Brooklyn, who gave his life to bird
study. Professor Scott, after special
izing on the subject at Cornell and at
Harvard, made large collections In
Florida, Colorado and Virginia. Later
he joined the Princeton faculty, and
was deputed to study birds In other
parts Of the United States and In ia.
maica. In 1897 he was made curator
of the pathological department Of
Princeton, a place that he held for the
rest of his life. He was a director In
the Worthington Society. He died In
August, 1910.
1t is interesting to note that Henry
Ford, the most conspicuous captain Of
industry Of our times, is, like Charles
q. Worthington and Mrs Russell Sage,
a lover OF birds and their ways, having
on his large estate near Detroit a col
lection that has greatly interested John
Burroughs, and a plan for electrically
warmed drinking cups In cold weather,
that is his wi device for the comfort
of his feathered guests. Every indica.
ton Of a renaissance Of bird study ia
to be applauded. Bird life has been
recklessly sacrificed in the past OF
America. Perhaps an era Of reform is
at hand.-Brookiyn Eagle.

WAR HAS HURT NEWSPAPERS
Calculations Of Big City Dailies
Have Increased, But at Heavy
Financial cost

New York.-Frank P. Noyes, presi-
dent of the Associated Press, in a sign
ed article in the New York Sun, points
out the burden carried by newspapers
as a result of the present war. The fol-
lowing extracts are especially interest
ing:
'4he newspaper is probably a heav-
Ter financial sufferer in the business
world through Val than any save those
whose property is physically destroyed
by it.
ION this side of the water the burden
of the present European war Is laid
heaviest on newspaper publishers of
| all u business men.
"The newspapers of large circulation
in this country are almost without ex-
ception one cent newspapers. The
white paper for these papers costs more
than the wholesale selling price. There
Is a loss on every copy sold and the
greater the excitement, the more sex-
tras' issued, the greater the loss.
I'm ordinary times this loss is made
up by advertising receipts. It is obvi-
GUS, however, shat nothing is received
for the advertising In this additional
and temporary circulation The sad
reverse of this Is true. In all times of
excitement advertising diminishes;
there are individual exceptions of
course, but they are sporadic and only
prove the rule.
IF this measured the extent of the
disaster to the newspapers that war
brings they would even then be some-
what worse off than the average BUSH
ness concern, for with diminished ad-
vertising earnings they would have in
creased circulation loss es.
1.-THE tale of woe of the newspapers
has only begun, however. The usual
business concern when trade is bad,
whether from war or whatever the
cause of the depression may be, trims
its sails for the storm, curtails the
working force, reduces the output.
War means to the newspaper an im-
mediate and tremendous increase to
its cost of production. Exchange.
