IN a little stone cottage in RuthweIl,
Scotland, in 1910 the Rev. Henry
Duncan established the first saw
ings bank which was organized
and operated on the recognized savings
bank principle which is: that from the
deposits received, the bank should, by
Judicious investment, earn enough to
pay the expenses of management, pay
interest to the depositors and establish
a guaranty fund to protect them from
losses incident to all business.
DR.. Duncan was by no means the
first to see the need of a safe deposit
DRY for the savings of the people, for
several others as high minded, but not
so practical, had heretofore attempted
to establish savings banks, but in their
zeal to make the proposition attractive,
combined features that smacked of
charity, and therefore failed as bust
ness ventures. AS early as 1898 the
A"Wendover Bank" was instituted by
the Rev. Joseph Smith, who with two
rich p~arishioners agreed to receive
sums on deposit and repay the same at
Christmas with a bonus of one-third
the amount deposited. 1t was in sub

These figures do not include the
stock savings banks, of which there
are upwards of 1900 in various parts
OF the country, nor banks of discount
operating savings departments. Nor
is it to be inferred that one is better
than the other; but the Centennial cele-
bratlon which commentaries a CEN
tury of savings banking is to do honor
to the mutual savings bank with no
dlsparagement to other types, whose
history is not so clearly defined, al
though their operation may have done
as great a good. In his first message
to the Legislature in 1920, Governor
Clinton of New York characterized the
savings bank as al institution to
cherish m%eritorious industry, encour-
age frugality, and to promote the vel
fare of families, the cause of morality
and the good order of society,"" And
he was right 1t has done all this in
thousands of instances for a hundred
years and well merits all the honor
and credit that may come to it after
a century of honorable conduct.
