March winds have a strong tendency

A Protector Of Money

We are all obliged TO carry with uf
a certain amount Of money--the dai-
ly necessities OF life require cash.
How much you should carry LIS for
you to say. AS rule. not more
than you will need from day to day,
for the man who carries great wads
Of money with him Is not only TAX
ing the risks Of theft and loss. but
is doing himself, tho bank and the
community an injustice: himself ir
the risk he assumes and the loss OF
interest the bank would gladly pay;
the bank in the use Of money to its
profit and the community in the loss
Of the money as the foundation OF
credit.
In a bankless community the indi-
vldual must protect his own money.
And to protect Il he hides 1t, often to
his sorrow. II there we're no banks
we would gravitate to q state Of bar
barism where strength was the only
safeguard. But to the individual
who has moro money In hand than
the daily needs require, the bank says
ut is our business to protect. For
this we have strong vaults, burglar
alarms and watchmen. We spend
money to protect money. We know
how-that is our function as bank.
You will frequently read Of losses
running into large figures because
someone has mistrusted the bank.
and assumed to be his own money
protector. Merchants in bankless
towns are frequently robbed--so fire.
Quently that some who have learned
their lesson will no longer trust the
frail iron safe that looks so formida-
BILE, hut is n mere toy under the
crackgman's skill, and prefer to sleep
on their money.
II every man to his trade" Is a
good motto, then the banker to his
trade. which Is, first of all. to safe
guard money. True, he does not
keep all he receives on deposit in
cash-that would be useless and
prontless task-he keeps only enough
to do business with and loans the
rest, which constitutes the second
function Of the banker, and that Is
to lend, which will be treated In No.
8 Of the Centennial Series; but re-
member this: that the place for the
money you can't use today is in the
bank, for this Is what banks are for
and you had better find 1t out. You
will sleep better and your money will
grow while you sleep.
