The Lexington progress. (Lexington, Tenn.) 1884-current, 1916-10-20

October 7th and 21st were set
apart as Federal Amendment days
to be celebrated all over the coun-
try in the states where equal suf-
frage does not prevail In Nash
vile an elaborate program was
arranged OH the steps Of the capt.
itol, as the contribution of the Nash
vile League to the observance of
the first date. Speaking upon that
occasion DR.. Gus Dyer, Of Wander
bin University made a number Of
observations worthy Of thoughtful
consideration by both pros and an
It's DR.. Dyer began with the state
ment that woman suffrage may be
regarded as practically an accom-
plished fact, its ultimate use being
but aquestiOn of time and method
He then spoke of the duties which
the ballot would place upon women
and Of the evil effects Of the activ-
ity of the women who are making
an effort to shirk the responsible
ties Of citizenship, and to cause 9TH
ers to shirk it by opposing votes for
women. He pointed out what
would be the feelings of men il
any movement should be set on
foot to deprive them Of the ballot
and spent the rest Of his ten min
utes in a discussion of the inherent
qualities Of women by which they
would be able to make their citizen.

statement: Women are far better

right and they won't surrender or
compromise. This quality is pow
erful asset in politics. Women
give much larger place to divine
influence in their movements.
Faith in God and faith in the power
of doing right are powerful factors
in successful political reform, and
in this women are superior to men.

Get the Habit of Drinking Hot Water
 Before Breakfast
Says we can't look or feel right with the system full

Millions of folks bathe internally now instead of loading their system with drugs. Whats an inside bath P you say. We'll, it is guaranteed to per form miracles if you could believe these hot water enthusiasts
 There are vast numbers of men and women who. immediately upon arising sn the morning. drink a glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it. This is a very excellent health measure. It is in tended to flush the stomach, liver, kid Aeys and the thirty feet of intestines and indigestible material left over in the body which if not eliminated every day, becomes food for the millions of bacteria which infest the bowels, the quick result is poisons and toxins which are then absorbed into the blood causing headache, bilious attacks, foul breath. bad taste, colds, stomach trou- ble. kidney misery, sleeplessness, im- pure blood and all sorts of ailments.
 People who feel good one day and badly the next, but. who simply can not get feeling right are urged to obFain & quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to Haake anyone real crank on the subject of internal sanitation.
 Just as soap and hot water act on che skin, cleansing, sweetsning and kEeshening, so limestone phosphate and Aot water act on the stomach, liver, <-idneys and bowels.

steady source of revenue, and finds it in lending the money of it's stockholders and depositors to those who can use pay for the accommodation. And only as it loans its funds and gets them back with interest can it long operate as a going concern.
 The peculiar fact of the matter is that uoiiar m the bank will do as much work as from four to five dollars else where. In technical sense tha banrer ooes not want your money to loan. but to use as basis of credit, and one doIIar to hlm IS as good as four for business purposes. This may seem an impossible proposition. Let us prove it.
 Experience has proven that eyerybodv uoes not want all their money at the same time. If 100 people were each to deposit $10O in a bank, the banker could sa1ely assume that not over one-quarter or them would call for their money at one time. As 8 matter of fact, less than To per cent would do so; therefore, if out or every dollar deposited, the banker keeps 10 cents in money, he can meet every ordinary demand for cash. When an unusual call arises, it is called a
 bank run," which merely means that more than the usual number of people are demanding their money at one time
 working on this theory, the banker does not' out of the $100 you deposit, lend, let us say. $9O; he puts the hundred in his vault Gin his reserve) and discounts the notes Of his customers, placing the pro- ceeds to their credit, against which they can check, the same as if they had de- posted cash. The banker works on the law or averages, and seldom does this law rail him, for as long as he has a certain percentage of his obligations in cash, or quickly available he is safe (The amount of reserve money varies, in no case being legally required to be more than IS per cent of the deposits).
 If. therefore, the banker with $1 in money can lend $10 in credit when you hold back the $10, you deprive the com munity of the hundred in credit. The banker is credit alchemist making one dollar do the work of many, and you owe it to him, to yourself and to your com munity to make the credit structure as big and as strong as possible.
 The place for every dollar that you do not need for your daily necessities is in the bank, for the bank will not only pro- tect it against fire and thieves, pay it back on demand. but by the alchemistic process known only to banking. turn 1t into 10 credit dollars, which are as effec- tive in the business world as money doI- lars and cheaper This is the bank s greatest service to the community and to you.

TALKS ON THRIFT
Lending the Banks Money

If the bank confined itself to receiving money offered for deposit and paying it out again on checks, 1t would render a very great and necessary service to the individual and the community, but il would soon cease to exist. because the life blood of all business (profits) would be lacking. The operation of bank Is expensive, and to hire clerks, pay rent. buy stationery and build vaults, merely to protect money and handle checking accounts, without some source of in. come, would prove costly undertaking.

one of which sets forth the earnings of tn six leading banks of New York and their net profits and the other puts into type the earnings of the six leading banks of London and their net profits it will be found that the earnings of the New York city banks compare favorably with the earnings of the leading London banks.
 A few years ago it would have been regarded as impossible that any bank in New York city could earn nearly $6,000, GOO in a year and could show net profits a little in excess of $2,OO0OO0. That, how ever, is now the record which the First National bank has made and it differs in a comparatively trifling amount from the record made by the National City bank
 The greatest trust institution in the world and the second greatest-the first being the Guaranty and the second the Bankers'-reported almost identical earn ings, somewhat in excess of $4000, ,009 While the earnings of the six London banks, as whole, are somewhat in ex- cess of the earnings of six leading New York banks nevertheless there is an ex- traordinary difference in net profits, and that difference is in favor of New York.
 What formerly was called the money power and was the object of severe crit icism is now looked upon with compos- ure, no one, excepting possibly men of ignorance or demagogic disposition, hav- ing any longer apprehension lest the con-
 oentration of resources and money at New York lead to a monopoly which
 would be disastrous.
 Every one of the six banks of New York has deposits in excess of $200, ,O00, 900, and curiously enough, the bank which has the smallest line of deposits is the one
 which reported the largest earnings namely. the First National Two of the New York banks carry deposits which are matched by only three banks of Lon don. The National Citys deposits are | $544, 100000, and the Guaranty Trusts S, $4S0,OOO,OO0. One London bank has de- posits little in excess of $70O,0O0,OO0 and another little over S6O0,0O0,0O0. But at the rate of growth in the deposits of New York institutions one of them, at least, and possibly two. should within a few years carry deposits in excess of those in any London bank. Much of this increase in the resources and deposits of New York banks has come since the war in Europe began, and for this reason the ! figures furnish possibly, the best con- crete illustration of the change which has taken place in less than two years.
