BANKS AS COMMUNITY SERVANTS

From bankers for local, state
and general government, the
banks became bankers for the
people over the war period.
They helped float the liberty
loans, helped the people buy them
and now are helping them collect
their interest from the govern
ment.
Many holders of liberty bonds
are not collecting the interest
when it falls due, perhaps it does
not seem to the holder worth
bothering with, and the banks
attend to it for him, however,
small the amount.
Some bondholders fail to clip
coupons with the idea that by let
ting the governmentkeep the in
terest money they were helping
pay the war debt.
But when interest falls due the
treasurer must hold in readiness
a sum sufficient to pay it all.
The banks attend to these mat
ters cheerfully, accommodating
ly, and without charge, merely as
part of modern banking meth
DDS.
Legitimate competition and
progressive methods in banking
bring benefits to the banker and
the public just as much as in any
business. That is why American
banks lead the world in the mat
ter of courtesy and accommoda-
tion to customers.

decided that Jemima Walker and Alex
ander Walker each took an undivided
one-half interest in the real estate SO
devised, and held the same as tenants
IN common and not as tenants by the
fntircties. and, therefore. the heirs at
law Of Alexander Walker are entitled
to an undivided one-half share thereof.
The court refused 20 enter q decree for
partition until Alexander Walkers heirs
at law are made parties 20 the cause.
The long established rule OF law was
that where land was conveyed or de-
Nised by viii to man and his wife,
they took the estate together, and the
survivor took the whole estate. The
estate created by a conveyance to
man and his wife was called an estate
by the entireties; that Is TO say, each
owned il all. and not each an undivided
one-half part thereof. This was based
on the theory Of martial unity, the hus-
band and wife being in the eyes Of the
law but one person, for the wife had
no separate standing In the law during
her husbands lifetime, even as to her
own property. OF late years the rights
of married women have been so much
ENLARGED both in Delaware and else
where. that the reason Of the ancient
rule no longer exists. She now has an
identity separate from that OF her hus-
band. and may take, hold, use and dis
pose Of her own property and enforce
in her own name her rights respecting
her own property Therefore, as she
has a legal personality and Identity
separate from that OF her husband, she
may take as tenant in common with
him land devised 10 them as such.
This decision Is an Illustration Of the
Influence Of liberal laws on artificial
rules Of law Of long standing.

1t will be realized that Ardmore came
