There Is No Evolution.
(New York Herald-Tribune.)
Can the pursy old gentleman who
talks pcopleinto buying Florida real
estate for several hundred dollars a
talk have.boen once a slim and
handsome orator who electrifieda
great convention with a fiery speech
about pressing a crown of thorns on
the brow of labor and crucifylng
mankind on a cross of gold? Can
his once empty pockets now bulge
metaphorically with a half million
dollars. earned during and since his
three campaigns for the presidency?
Can the stately dwelling which is
one of the show places of Miami
house the poor lawyer who once
held. or at least voiced the belief
that the power of money is a curse?
No. William Jennings Bryan is
still the lean and hungry advocatc
of a monetary standard which would
take from the rich their ill-gotten
dollars and bestow them on the
poor. Florida. is still a land of
swamps and palmetto flats. There
is no stately mansion in Miami;
there is no silver voice begging
strangers to enrich themselves by
purchasing real estate in its vicinity.
The world is. and always will be. as
it was. Evolution is only a vicious
doctrine. invented by the rich. to
hold the poor in subjection.

(New Haven Register.)
Salute the ensign of the police
navy of New Haven. which has just
taken to the water. glistening in new

and a quartet of sen-going cops.
The chief of police is authority for
the assertion that the naval budget
up to this time amounts to only
$750. and that sufiiced to buy the
ship. overhaul. repair and equip n.
The purchase price was a more trifle
as the vessel was sold at a govern-
ment auction. and New Haven was
tho only bidder.
The flagship of the New Haven
navy is one of the spoils of the pro~
hibiilon war. it is a. somewhat
noted bccr runner. and was captured
last summer willie trying to land a
cargo of sic in the harbor. It is now
to be used as a patrol for the harbor
and may be instrumental in can-

Remarkable Record
by GEORGE 'r. uuouhs.
(Copyright. 1925.)
Since my last. article on building
and loan associations was writlen
my attention has been called to a
statement of the records of these as-
sociations in some thiry states. This
record was compiled by a Cincinnati
association and consists of reports
by the state banking commissioner
or other state oiliciai charged ‘with
supervision of building and loan so.
ciciies as to the results over a ser-
ies of years.
The showing is a remarkable one.
Failures have been almost unknown
and the exceptions have been due al-
most invariably to a. dcfalcstlon.
Losses to depositors and to stock.
holders have been negligible. There
is only space to mention a few typic~
al experiences. For instance in New
York. except for one small society
where there was a dcfalcation. there
have been no failures in twenty-five
years. Ill Maine there has been no
failure in half a century. In Indiana
losses in the last seven years have
been one four-hundred and fiftieth
of one cent. in Nebraska there has
not been a failure or receiver in the
last twenty years. in Louisiana not
a. failure of a. building and loan as.
socintion has occurred in twenty
years. in Kansas there has been one
building and loan failure in twenty-
years in Oklahoma there has been
no failures since 1910 and at that
time the loss was very small. In Min-
nesota no local building and loan as-
sociation has failed in twenty years.
in Colorado there has been no fail.
ure since 1911. Montana reports that
there has never been a failuer in the
history of building and loan asso-
tions in that state.
It is doubtful whether any other
financial institution, unless it be is
savings bank. can 3 duplicate this
story of solvency. There is. of course.
always the possibility of losses in
any form of savings institutions no
matter how extensive the safeguards.
Moreover the law regulating these
associations is not the same in all
the states. Some banking depart-
ments are more strict than others.
On the recotd. however. the build-
ing and loan is entitled to the con-
fidence of small savers everywhere.
One other point about these asso-
ciations deserves emphasis. Moneys
invested with them go to building up
the community in which the investor
lives. A strong building and loan as-
sociation is is. real asset to city or
town in which it operates.

Three Old-Timere'l‘sss Along.
(New York World.)
Since the Astor House in the late
thirties became known and imitat-
ed the world over, Manhattan has
been renowned for its fine hotels.
Old New Yorkers will feel a pain;
over the fact that a single fortnight
has sealed the death-warrant of
three great hotels, the Netherlands.
Savoy and Park avenue.
Each belonged to a separate de-
cade. The Park Avenue Hotel car.
ricd out in 1873 A. T. Stewart's
determination to obtain at any cost
a hotel fireproof. luxurious and with
magnificent public rooms. It cost
$3.000.000. The public of that day
talked with wonder of the prefect
security of its 500 unintlammsble
rooms. the beauty of its spacious
interior court. with flowers and
fountains: the pleasure of sitting at
the windows above listening to Lan-
zer’s famous orchestra. The Neth-
criands was equally the wonder of
the eighties" With 189-2 came the
Savoy. built on a cemmanding site
picked by Boss Tweed 20 years earl-
ier for his projected Knickerbocker
Hotel. Its rich Italian Renais-
sance facade. its walls of Indiana.
limestone, its halls of Sicna. Killer-
ncy and Numidian marbles. its
Pompeian billiard room. and. above
all. its state suite. which reproduced
Marie Antoinette's boudoir in the
Triancn Palace. and which the In-
fanta Eulaila of Spain occupied in
1893. were again the talk of half
the continent.
New York’s hotels have kept pace
with the growth of luxury. and two
of them. with 2,000 rooms and baths
apiece. rank as the finest in the
world. But it may be doubted
whether any single New York house
now has the fame that the Astor.
the Netherlands. the Park Avenue
and the Savoy successively enjoyed.
What‘s in Your Desk?
(Floyd W. Parsons in
industrial Gas.)
The story is told of John A. Fat-
terson. president of the National
Cash Register company. that he de»
termined to employ a unique method
of teaching his employee how little
they knew about their desks. He
called a janitor and a big waste
paper truck and started through the
offices at his Dayton factory. At
each desk he asked the worker what
was in the drawers. The papers the
Worker could not name were taken
out and the balance was dumped
into the truck. The accumulated
matter made fuel for a big bonfire
on a nearby lot. Not only did this
bonfire make history at the N. C. R.
plant. but Mr. Patterson succeeded
in giving his office a $100,000 illus-
tration of what disorganized and un-
standardized desks were costing his
company. It was driven home in
forceful fashion that when 2.000 em-
pioyes each waste one hour a day in
needless sorting and resorting of
papers. and needless "waiting on
each other." the company pays at
the rate of about $375,000 a year for
this loss 01.10 per" cent of the total
working time of the executive and
clerical forces.
