FUND, ITS GROWTH
 AT INTEREST

How the dollar invested works for the individual himself has been best illustrated by that first great Ameri- can teacher of thrift, Benjamin Franklin. In 1791, he bequeathed e1000 to the Commonwealth of Mass achusetts and to the City of Boston as a mark of his appreciation for having appointed him agent in England at the "handsome" salary of f2000. And to make his bequest really valuable with his great foresight, Franklin pro- vided in his will that this 5000 should be put out at per cent interest for 100 years; that at the end of that time 31-l31 of the fund accumulated should again be put out at interest for another hundred years and then the fund be divided one-fourth to Boston and three -fourths to the State.
 Let us see how well that 5000 of Franklin's has worked. At the end of the first hundred years it had grown to S43l, ,383.62. It was then divided in accordance with the will; s329,- 30048 was set aside for Public Work and $102, ,085.15 was started on it's course of earning interest for another hundred years. That was in 1891. On Jan. 1, 1918, this sum had grown to $267, ,805.15, and at this rate of increase the fund should amount to at least six million dollars when the second period is completed, and may be considerably more.
