What The Banks Make
By GEORGE TKRUGEES.

What the Banks Make No. C if
All that is necessary to make a lot
of money and live easy is to be a
banker.
That is a very erroneous idea that
is widely prevalent.» Banks do and
must spend a great deal. of money to
handle money safely and profitably.
which is an example of the paces-v
sity of every one considering very
carefully the investing of his saw
lugs. It isn't .at all a question of
getting together a lot of money. For
several months last year a number
of banks in this country earned little
or nothing because they had too
much money. Their deposits mount-v
ed up and interest rates dropped to
as low as 3 per cent. for call money
~—and iower-to as low at 2 14 per
cent. for short-time loans and 3 to
3 1-2 per cent. for commercial pa-
per. Many banks at times have so
much money it is difficult to keep it
both profitably and safely employed.

The salesman vhud intermittently

these loans. The banker gave him
