only so or so a year. In other
words it provides the state

teachers needed.

country, was put in operation.
At that time it was said that
the Inauguration of the new
system marked a day in our
history which might we'll be
called the financial Fourth Of
July. 1t is instructive and in
teresting at this first anniver-
sary to review briefly what
the new system has made pos
sible in the way of expansion
of business activity and the
upbuilding of the general vel
fare of the nation.
A year ago, owing to the
breakdown of the information
al financial machine as a re,
suit of the European war, bus
mess in this country suffered a
severe setback. The stock ex-
changes were closed, money
was lending at usurious rates,
and bankers were unable to
extend credit to even their best
customers, Perfectly solvent
business houses were paying
the highest interest rates on
record for the use of money.
Today, after many months
of remarkable business expan-
sion, money is practically a
drug on the market, and last
week the rate for six months
accommodations fell to the
lowest point on record. A
year ago the banks at New
York, the country's money
center, had loans outstanding
amounting to 2157 millions,
and every effort was being
made to curtail. Today the
same banks have increased
their loans by about 1000 mil
lions and still report the larg-
est surplus of idle funds inI
their history. A year ago,
these banks had roughly 24I
cents of cash against every
dollar of deposits, and they
were facing a money crisis.
Today they only have about
16 cents of cash for every dol
lar of deposits, and yet they
have more money on hand
than they can find borrowers
for.
The purpose of the new re-
serve system was to make a |
dollar do more work, to allow
greater business expansion
and facility of commercial ac-
tivity with the country's money
resources. AS shown by this
comparison of cash to reserve
ratios, under the new system
two dollars are now doing the
work formerly done by three
and there is still supera-
bundance.
The federal reserve system
has permitted the greatest ex-
pansion of business in one year
in the history of the country
and as indicated by the pres
ent abnormally low money
rates further practically un-
limited increases appears pos
sible.-BostOn Post.

THE FOLLY OF WORRY

40 HEN a man is angry, is
@ worried or otherwise
out of sort mentally the
trouble is in his mind. 1t is not
in his feet or his stomach. The
thing to do is forget it and fol
low your normal line of action.
There is sane advice in the
following:
Worry does no good. 1t
does not make the burden any
lighter, the road shorter, the
duty easier. The sensible
thing to do is to face the fact
that is discouraging or hard,
and 60 right on. He was a
wise traveller who, when his
horse dies, said, Il must walk
