Modern Banking.

Formerly it was the business of the
banker to sit behind his money bags,
receive the deposits that came in with
out effort, and loan them out to ap-
plicants for funds. 1t was a passive
conception of the frnction of this
business and modern banking does
much more than that. II plans thrift
campaigns, and promotes various
projects to induce people to save
money regularly. Plans of that kind
were discussed at the recent conytn-
ti0n of the American Bankers assOcia-
ton at New York and many of these
bsuk men willgo home with new ideas
of how to promote the thrift habit.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By s. w. STRAUS
President Of American Society for Thrift

1t is gratifying to note that the cur
rent year has proved to be the greatest
era of home building aud home-owner
ship in the history of our country.
This is important because these act
iyities signify widespread practices Of
thrift.
The building of homes means the
creation of new wealth, coming either
directly OF indirectly from the savings
of the people.
Statisiicians tell us that during the
year 1922 considerably more than one
billion dollars will have been utilized
in the erection of homes for our people.
1t is not posi- bic to show exactly what
proportion of this tremendous expend-
iture represents new home-Ownership,
but nothing like the wave of home
ownership that has swept over the
country this year ever has been wit
messed before.
1t is a splendid commentary on the
rightful tendencies in American life.
1t shows right thinking and right liv-
ing, and should prove most discou
raging indication to those who hope
for the disruption of our present social
order. These developments are Of
special significance at the present time
when there is so much unrest in the
world, and when the enemies of law
aud order are apparently making pro
gress in some foreign countries.
In 1920 there were II ,4G3, 900 home
owners in the United States and this
number has been greatly Increased
during the intervening two years. 1t
would probably be safe to estimate
that there are 10 ,OO0, 900 home owners
in the L nited States today A nation
which spends more than billion doll
airs year for new homes and which
numbers $4,000, 900, home owners
among its population, most assuredly
offers scant comfort for the alarmist,
the Bolshevist or the pessimist.
In many ways we as a people are un-
mindful of he values that come from
thrift. There are grave examples of
waste aud inefflciency, but the fund
amentals are sound and no better proof
OF tins can be found than in the extent
OF home-ownership in America and
the rapid development of this phase
OF our national life. There is no finer
example of thrift than this, and no
more significant proof of the sound
ness and potential strength of our
nation.

the different characters may be made
by the pupils when the story is of the
nature of biographical sketch. Des-
