Many of the most com- fortable and commodious houses on the best thoroughfares of the lm\ut The selection will be the bes The variety unmatched The quality unsurpassed The price the lowest All these you find at our stor | are owned, not by the salaried offi- cials of the railroad shops, but by the men who sweat ang toil all day long in the grime of those shops. “That is what the building and loan associations have done for the | Altoona workingman, or rather what the Altoona workingman hflsl done for himself. Every man wants his own home; and, if he be reliable, he can have it. “The importance of such a condi- tion is unquestioned, and many of the big cities are working to the end that their people may enjoy the sat- isfaction anq contentment that a preprietary sense insures. Philadel- phia, Pittsburg and Cleveland are all urging the necessity of more in- dividual homes, but Altoona has al- ready anticipateq them, and is en- joying the fruits of its foresizht in a wide-spread prosperity.” If Lakeland takes advantage her opportunities, she may have what these great cities will find it very harg to secure at this late day in their growth. For she has a very large contingent of railroaq and she may have the building ana loan association’s “‘continued and in- men; telligent activity” if she will, witn! but trifling effort, to help her rail- road workingmen and others—give them good homes, and fix their resi- dence here, to assure the city’s con- tinueq ang healthy growth. Here, we would give a tip to our more well-to-do and influential rail- road men that the way is still open for them to become a dominant or prominent factor in enabling their fellow workers and othérs in Lake- land to “enjoy the satisfaction and contentment that such a proprietary sense ensures.” We understand that of | munity for continuous and lasting uplife and betterment beyond any- thing else now in sight. Mr. Willard has shown us copy of a month’s business in 1912, in the paid-up stock register of the asso- ciation with which he was formerly connected, which shows a majority are women holding certificates of $50 to $2,000 in amount, anq total- ing for the month over $22,000. The report of that association last year, as given in the Telegram some weeks 'ago, showed loans for 1913 to be over $125,000, chiefly to build more {homes, And some time ago its at- itorney, Thomas Hughes, wrote Mr. Willard: ““As to your question re- garding the value of a building as- Isociation in a town, [ would say that ’rlnriug the last ten years, at least fone-half of all the buildings in Mankato, both stores ang residences (have been built on loans obtained from our building association.’’ E Such a record is something to be . proud of, and those women must feel that their work is eminently worth while. What they have, done the women must fee]l that their work is eminently worth while. have done the women of Lakeland can do in time, anq more, for just at this juncture a most valuable in- stitution is in danger of being lost, from inaction on the part of our gen- eral business interests. What they | Yesides, con- semi-social and economic questions. Ang just now, as the Boy Scouts, Camp Fire Girls and Y. M. C. A. movements are taking form and get- ting under way, it really extends women's field of labor to this work. For, as a matter of observation, it has been founq that, as a rule, yolunfz people—boys and girls—seldom do or can accomplish much till they get to saving anq accumulating money, to do something with, and have something before them to make it an object to do so. This institution in operation here, will give them a “chance” for this that nothing gives now, and nothing ever can give so effectually . (To Be Continued.) If a bill presented in the Assem- bly becomes a law, a loan of $750,- 000 from the gold standard fund will be made to the city of Manilla. The money would be investeq by the lang suitable for constructing homes for the working classes.

Well they may, for quite a number of our bronze effigles are, at this mo- ment, in a most unsightly condition as a result of what is sald to be “cleaning.” The Gladstone figure in | the Strand, the Shaftesbury memorial | fountain at Picadilly Circus, and many another, are coated in verdigris, the dried swillings of some noxious fluid which has run down onto the stone | below and made it green also—though not with envy, one would think. The whole produces a most bilious and sickening sight. Why cannot these bigger bronzes be kept as clean and “bronzy" as the two Herculean ath- letes in the Embankment Gardens— the best and best-kept figures in Lon- don?—London Chronicle.
