TULSA SCHOOLS
JOIN BANKS IN
THRIFT CAMPAIGN

Tulsa. OKLA. Feb. l2.-Regarded as
a powerful influence for good in the
ccmmumity, the Tulsa Juvenile Thrift
bank q school institution which had its
beginning 3 years ago in the desire Of
q high school instructor for practical
banking instruction for his students
is now rounding out an other fiscal
year of success with actual deposits
totaling more than $4,000. Scores
of stockholders are on the register
whereas deposits during the first year
were merely on paper and transac-
tions were IN imagination.
j. Turner Horner, head OF the CONF
mercial department OF the Central
high school, conceived the bank. 1t
was launched in the hope, accord
ing TO uorner, that school officials
would see the practicsbtiity of bank
operating with students money, by
students and for students
The venture was. approved and

School officials and members 0 the
board OF education Of Tulsa are en-
thusiastic over the results obtained
Not only has it laid a foundation
with Tulsa's youth upon which a
thrifty future may be built, they say
but has demonstrated the practicability
of sound investment since the bank
has returned varying profits 10 both
depostors and stockholders since the
first year. The maximum value OF
stock certificate available TO q single
investor is $40 and a number Of both
students and teachers, not only in the
high school but Of ward schools, have
invested to the limit.
So successful, in fact, has been oper-
alton OF the bank that its founder.
Mr.. Horner, now devotes virtually his
entire time TO supervision OF the ac-
tual banking work carried on by stud
ent officers and student board Of
directors, upon whom devoives almost
every duty with which the banker
comes in contact with the exception
OF approving loans.
An attempt is now being made 10
interest county officials in the prin~
ciple OF the Juvenile bank, and city
officials see a possibility that the plan
may be adopted by the majority o,
county schools.
