~ LIAMS report to Congress shows that the more
than five billions of dollars which are on deposit in
the savings banks Of the United States are owned by
.l48 392 deposors. The same report also shows that
in 1915 the $500 building and loan associations in the
country had total membership of 3,334899 And this
gives US the impressive total of fourteen and half million
savings accounts in population Of I00.000,000
There duplicates in these figures of course
but is pretty good showing of thrift at that AS these
statistics do not reach into the best of the war prosperity

FAIRMoNr STATE NORMAL


From the School Journal and Educa,
tor.
FThe Fairmont State Normal school
eelehrated the New Year by moving
nut of the old house and into the new.
fhe event was one of importance not
only in the history Of the school but
IN the history OF normal school educa.
ton m West Virginia. The old build.
ing was wholly inadequate; the new
building, with its spacious grounds,
will soon be one of the best normal
school plants in the country. Good
work was done In the old building;
better work will be done in the new.
The Fairmont State Normal school
has had q career Of very great useful
ness. For many years its work was
largely academic, for the needs were
academic needs. Young men and young
women were fitted for college or were
sent ont into life equipped with the
equivalent of q good strong school
course. Hundreds of these young PEG.
pie have become men and women of
great usefulness, and some of them OF
much prominence. The influence OF
the Fairnont Normal is widely felt,
AZ high schools increased in numbers
and efficiency, the work of the Fair.
mont Normal turned more and more
toward the. professional training OF
teachers. The school has always striv.
,gn to meet the real needs Of its con,

stituency. The only excuse for the ex.
istence of a school Of any sort is to
do good-practical good, rather than
theoretical good. For long time
the CONTINGENCY OF the Fairmont school
were not ready for professional train
ing-they needed instruction in the
academic subjects, and they got what
they needed most. Now, however, the
conditions Is ready, for professional
education. The evolution OF the school
has been in harmony with the chang.
ing needs of the people.
The school is not only fortunate in
having a splendid new building, but it
is fortunate in having q president Of
fine administrative ability, breath Of
view, and sanity Of professional judg.
ment to lead it from the, old into the
new. President Roster has no freakish
streaks; he Is a man of wisdom, and
the friends of the Fairmont Normal
know that 1t is in safe as we'll as
strong hands. The writer has seen
PRESIDENT Roster tested In all kinds
OF situations, from the days when, as
a teacher, he was moved about from
the Fairmont Normal to the Glenyille
Normal and back again, and through
HIS career as city superintendent OF
the Fafrmont schools, and IN the trying
days Of his appointment to his present
position, and knows that he is made Of
the stuff that you make men OF.

Col. Beall has been visitor in

making no secret about his ambition

impressed all who talked with him as
