SOME FACTS ABOUT THE
PULLMAN SAVINGS AND LOAN
ASSOCIATION

To provide a systematic and abso-
lutely safe plan for the investment
of savings, and to aid it's members
to acquire homes of their own is the
object of the Pullman Savings and
Loan Association. The Association
is in every sense a HOME institution.
Who It's For
1t is for the Practical Man, who
realizing the uncertainties of bust
ness and health, and of the folly
of spending all his money as fast as
he gets it, provides for an emer-
gency.
1t is for the Prudent Woman, who
out OF her earnings or allowance, de-
sires to put away little money,
monthly, where it will be securely
and profitably invested, and give her
the least trouble and where she can
get it wnen needed.
Ii is for the Young Man possessing
the manhood and determination to
save something every month from
his earnings as a reserve fund, to
draw on when sick or out of a posi-
ton, for providing a home or for a
start in business.
1t is for Boys and Girls, to help
them to be economical and industri-
Gus and to encourage them to ac-
quire the habit of saving, provide a
fund to educate them and to make
them independent.
1t is for Societies, Fraternal and
Other Organizations wishing to in
vest thiar income for the purpose of
creating a reserve fund, or for build
ing.
Ii is for all Seeking "A Home or
who want to improve their property,
or pay off a mortgage or to provide
a fund for any other worthy purpose.

The Chicago Tribune says that Ger
many has a grievance in our Monroe
doctrine and Japan in our discrimina-
ton against Japanese citizens. Else
where it declares: Congress did we'll
to cheer Dodd. 1t would do better to
listen to him and men like him. 1t is
to be hoped his service, not merely the
feat of yesterday, but the long years
which prepared it, will be generously
acknowledged and rewarded. But the
best acknowledgment by congress Of
the merits of the American army off
GERS which Colonel Dodd so admirably
represents is to give them an army
and an organization adequate to meet
the responsibilities we ignorantly place
upon their shoulders"
The Ronan pioneer. [volume] (Ronan, Mont.) 1910-1970, 1916-06-09

Investigation of our military pre-
paredness resources shows that there
are 1O1 educational institutions now
giving military instruction. In 1915
there were 80, 1913 students under mill
tary training. 1t is assumed that all
of the military graduates will be fit
for commissions in the volunteers.
Good officers are not easily made, but
training which can be had in a school
camp goes a long way toward inspir-
ing confidence in men wholly un-
trained.

America is the land for tourists!"
exclaims writer in Leslie's Weekly.
Mountains, caverns and rivers galore,
north, south, east and west, are listed
among the attractions, and the writer
closes with this summary of the vari-
GUS charms and advantages:
This country is so vast and its
range Of climate and attractions so
varied no one should he at loss to
suit his taste at any season. If you
want winter in summer you can find
it in the high mountain ranges. where
the snow never vanishes. If you want
Texas and California, the beautiful
isles of Hawaii or the West Indies.
The hunter can enjoy summer shoot
ing in winter along the south Atlantic,
or he can hunt big game in the north
in June. The disciple of Isaak Walton
can satisfy every longing when the
st. Lawrence lures thousands or in
midwinter can find northern camp
and angle through the ice. Any time
of the year the sportsman can indulge
in his particular hobby in some sec
ton of our land. There is seashore for
those who like it, mountains for the
climbers. dry attitudes or the lowlands,
winter and summer the whole year
through. rustic charm for those of sim
pie taste and splendid appointments in
hotels. steamers and railroads for those
who prefer the luXuries of life. Be
cause of all these attractions America
is the land for tourists"

crawled on her hands and knees along
secret passages, and in several in
stances rescued at the point of the
pistol the miserable slave girl who
had appealed to her.
In her rescue work Miss Cameron
does not go after the girls who are
content to live such lives. but to
those who appeal to her or who she
learns wish to get away from 1t. She
has taken more than one girl as they
were passing along the streets and
forced the Chinese owner" to 90 to
court. On several occasions she has
been followed and threatened by mobs
of Chinese and their friends.
OF Scotch parentage, Miss Cameron
was born in New Zealand. She came
to America as young girl and for
twenty years has been employed by
the board of foreign missions of the
Presbyterian church for rescue work
among the Chinese of San Francisco.
She is paid only $50 month. and in
sists that she thinks it quite enough.
Once she gets a girl she does not
try to Americanize her or keep her
away from reputable people of her
own nationality. On the contrary, the
girls study Chinese books along with
English and are encouraged to hold
to their own religion.
Since Miss Cameron has learned
that all Chinese girls wish to be mar
ried she does her best for them as a
matchmaker. She sees that they meet
| reputable men who are able and will
ing to give them good homes and
proper treatment. Nor does her in
terest cease with their marriage. Her
short vacations are usually spent
visiting girls who have been under her
care and who have married. She is
entertained as an honored guest and
husbands are said to be careful to
put their best foot forward.

"Pone,s Size"

A curious item in the trade slang of
hosiers is the term "pope's size" ap-
piled to vests. They classify the scale
Of chest measurements for these as:
Small mems. 32 inches; slender mems.
"a inches; mems. SO inches; pope's. SO
inches; out size, AZ inches
The origin OF this term. which has
been current for nearly century, was
discussed some years ago in Notes
and Queries. when it was stated on
good authority that 1t had no connec-
ton with the successors OF St Peter.
1t appears that the head Of an old
firm of West end hosiers. Messrs.
Pope & Plante. ordered this size to be
made specially for his own personal
use, and the manufacturer called IL
after him for want of better name
