It would seem that after the bank takes your money, protects it, pays it hack on demand or as you order, lenc counts your neighbor nothing I BA vou money, d note for you, it would have to offer in your behalf. But it 1s—it “makes” money for you. and ncidentally makes money for itself. When vou see the president or the cashier of a bank signing his name to & row of four crisp new bills ithey always come in sheets of four) you wonder what he is doing, and what is behind it all. We will show you by a simple illustration. Let us suppose you want to borrow $1,000 and offer vour note to your banker. He knows you, knows that you will pay and wants to accommodate you. He looks at his books and says: “I can’t spare the money. The law says I must have 15 cents out of every dollar I owe my depositors in cash, or where T can get it on demand; and I have just what the law requires. I I give vou credit for the note and let you check against it, I increase my debts and make my conditlons wos for if I do not pay vou in ca must stand ready to do so.” But being a resourceful banker and knowing how, he asks you to wait a minute while he goes to his strong box. He finds a government . hond which he bought a year ago when he had plenty of spare money, for cash and comes back smiling and y “Very well, in three days you can have your money. I will turn this bond into bank notes for you.”” So he sends the bond to Washington, and in return the government sends him 200 crisp new $5 bills, to be signed by two officers of the bank, cut and handed out to you. The government keeps the hor.d as security that he will redeem the notes “lawful money” on demand—that greenbacks or gold tor them nded (but thisis seldom donn), interest on your note for h notes, and both :wre else I in i, pay if dem 1 him the of satisfied. You sece, by this proposition he has turned your note into bank notes. with himself behind it and the gov ernment behind him. Your promise wouldn't go very far from home: the promises will. veryhody know them. They are “moncy” and circu- late as such. Now what has the banker this process? He has furnished the community well as you with ¢ culating medium, handy to carry, cheap and satisfactory to all, He has taken your credit and turned it into bank credit. He makes money and you take the money he has made and make some money for yourself. Tt i a very simple proposition understood by few, but practiced by many don’'t fully understand it, ask vour banker to tell you more 1bout it. This feature of banking however, | jx performed in this country only by | hanks under control of the federal government, namely the national | banks and federal reserve banks, but | is a common banking praciice the word over differing in form but not in substance, it being a universal | function of the bank to turn credit | which is unknown into that which Is | known and will therefore be freely taken, and hank note credit most common and use done by von seful form.

(New York Sun.) It there is to he moving picture companies that the will a merger of the screen the output at la control In this photoplay: this is an practically country and of for the world appropriate time for ing a word of counsel and advice to its prospective directors. While over- competition may be a blight that has affected ‘the movies detrimentally, it is not the only adverse influence that has had disastrous effect upon most popular form of amusement known to this generation. The man- agers of the coming ‘‘moving picture trust” should adopt as their motto Shakespeare’s sertion that ‘‘the play’s the thing."” The public has heen astonished re« cently to learn of the enormous sala- ries pald to Mary Pickford, Charle: Chaplin and other major stars . in the galaxy of photoplay actors, these clever film performers are not entitled to the money they receive Is not to be maintained. The able business men who have signed the contracts that guarantee princely revenues to the leading photo players of the moment have not been misled regarding the drawing power of performers possessing the rare and a sary for high echievements in the in- terpretation of screen drama. Never theless, there has been a tendency upon the part of movie managers, from the very outset of the picture play enterprise, to put the emphasis in the wrong place and to exaggerate the importance of the actor while minimizing the significance of the playwright. They have fallen into the same error that brought disaster so often to American theatrical man- rs before the movies came into existence, managers who came finan- ical croppers because they put their faith in matinec idols rather than in competent dramatist; In the true view of the case the stage, or the screen, is only a medium through which a story teller relates a dramatic tale to an audience. If the playwright's story is sentially undramatic, if it depends for success upon the skill or the popu- larity of its interpreters, it is doomed to failure. That the powers which have dominated heretofore the realm of the movie drama have blinded themselves to the ahove undeniable fact has been painfully evident. Their attitude toward the writers of scena- rlos, as contrasted with their treat- ment of popular photoplay actors, is proof positive that they have failed to realize the fact that the ultimate welfare of the film drama with the playwrights and not stars however popular. It is only of lato that there has been any concerted effort upon the part of photoplay magnates to improve the quality of the screen dramas offered to a public that refuses to be fooled more than part of the time Better prices are being offered to profes- sional novelists and playwrights for stories adapted to film production The Authors T.eague of America has now perfected a form of com- tract that offers authors possess- ing creative imagination tion and incentives that hitherto denied to them of the movie drama. hoped that *the film merger now in process of formation will not only the movie industry upon financial basts but will also energies toward the im- provement of its dramatic oufput and payment of reasonable monetary veturn to playwrights who, having mastered the technlque of scenario writing are incapable of turning out rubbish for the screen rests with to the have been in the field Tt to be protec- ae firmer direct its Britain and protests of the United with the The reply of Great I'rance the 1tes Is is for to against interference the most .
