more and more persons expressing
doubt of that sincerity, and even of

certainly doing more to kill religion
than are the avOwed enemies Of the
church, " Burbank said.
''Thcy are not teaching the truth
hut it always prevails sooner OF
later. In the meantime, they are
doing great damage to the cause OF
religion as represented by the church
in America.
Burbank in private. as in public
is an avowcd follower of the evolu

private study where we'll worn

serves the double purpose Of secur-
ity and advertising.
Writing in Trust Companies, ;"
Alfred C. Bosom. specialist in bank
architecture, says: "The financial
institution will find it profitable
to constantly call attention to its
close kinship with the interests
which are the source of the income
of the surrounding population. The
National Bank of Harrisonburg, Va,
for instance, maintains large
show. or sample, room in which it
exhibits products of all that region
such as cotton and tobacco.
This same idea of maintaining
exhibits of local products is very
largely in evidence in many banks
on the Pacific coast, and in many
of these institutions special facili-
ties are maintained for the benefit
of the large number of tourists
who yearly visit that section of
the country. In Washington some
banks have added an information
service to their equipment and
travel information and even resef-
vations on trains and steamers
may be had without change for the
service. All Of this is undertaken

Cater to Women.
Many Washington banks have
added special women's depart
ments with tellers and all bank
facilities and, according to Mr..
Bosom, quoted above, one New
York bank is even installing a
conference room where its clients
may meet one another, while the
addition of fur storage vaults has
been found profitable as an add
ed attraction for customers.
In at least one bank in Washing
ton there is provided an especially
low counter for the use of children
and one local banker. in an out
lying institution, provided toys to
interest little folk while their moth
ers are engaged in transacting
their banking business.
Developments such as these In
dictate clearly that the business of
Ranking is one of the most human
OF all undertakings and that the
modern banker is one of the most
human members of society. More
over, the elegance and substantial
ity of modern banking buildings
and the new appeal to the public
through the medium of newspaper
and other advertising, together
with the consideration for the COM
fort and convenience of bank pa
irons. cannot fail to increase the
number of depositors. to the ulti-
mate benefit of the bank. the in
dividual and the community.
