MEN AND MONEY
Bank tellers assume risks out of all
By NJ. S. Rukeyser.
Copyright. 1921

Bank tellers assume risks out of all
proportion to their compensation.
They receive only the salary of a
hlgh-cl&ss clerk, and yet tens of thou
sands of dollars pass through their
hands monthly. And they are finan-
cially responsible for their errors
The belief that the teller's cage opens
up opportunities for promotion to
high places in the world of banking
| constitutes one of the chief lures of
the job
The holiness of bandits heightens
the hazards of being teller.
In the large cities bankers special
ize. In the rural districts all-around
bankers still flourish.
Il have seen some right courageous

Malctt. president of the Citizens Bank
OF Abilene, Kans., recently wrote, but
none that ever surpassed that of Il
cashier in our bank. j. L. JontZ.
"A rather gl'uff-looking fellow came
up to his window, pulled out a .38
revolver, planked it down on the coun-

his composure in any way. Mr.. Jontz
came from behind his window and
took the pistol away from the fellow.

should have rendered the money to
him first and questioned him later.
Having gained possession of the Weap~

the fellow. He disclaimed any inten-
ton of obtaining money under the
threat of force and insisted that he
had merely brought the gun along to
serve as collateral. He explained that
he thouhgt the bank ought TO be will

him assurance that, if he had been

In the current journalistic fashions
the confession article is much in
vogue. Even the highbrow maya
zines have fallen in line, adapting TO
their own needs a new form which
was first used by distinctly lowbrow
publications.
The sedate Journal of the American
Bankers Association is the latest to
conform to the new trend. a Southern
banker confesses how it feels to have
a ran on your bank, saying:

return every dollar intrusted to it.
The savings depoSitorS-rather than
whose who have commercial accounts
are the ones who will be Influenced
to a greater extent by rumars and
weakness, and those who have only
few dollars at stake are even more
anxious to regain possession of them
than are those who have greater sums
on deposit"

Can You Afford to Own Home?

The home owning instinct has been
satisfied in the case OF an increasing
number of families during the recent
building boom.
Some individuals who are financial.
~ able to own their own homes prefer
to remain renters for a variety OF rea
sons; either because they prefer to
keep the capital required in more
liquid investments. or because they
believe that current real estate prices
are too high. or because they do not
wish to tie themselves down TO one
locality.
However many individuals of limited

Computing the Value.
1t is difficult to set up definite rules
because of varying conditions through
out the country and different stand
ards which prevail in different fam

that the value of your home should
be two to two and one half times your
annual income. According TO TINS
formula, a $4,000 home could be
bought by a man whose annual III
come is 81. 1000 to $1,000.

afford to spend onequarter or your
total current income for shelter. &C
