OUR HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO DOLLARS AND SEV- F ENTY-TWO CENTS should lie in the savings bank to your credit. If not, then you have either missed or thrown away your share of gencral prosperity. The Comptroller of the Currency has given out the figures for | the nation’s savings bank deposits as they stood June 14, 1912. Last yéar brought an increase of $239,234,924, lifting the grand total of the people's savings to $4,451,818,522. Two hundred and fifteen thousand new depositors joined the ranks of the thrifty, making the total 10,000,000. The money these workers have saved would, if divided, give every person in the United States $46.53. Yet thera | are only thirty-eight more savings banks in the country than there were in 1911. In New York State the careful folk have $1,633,495,812 laid | away, each deposit averaging $510.04. Only two States, Nevada and Rhode Island, are ahead of this average, and their relatively small population accounts for it. Comparing different sections of the country, the Eastern States—New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland and the District of Columbia—stand first with four million depositors and deposits of over two billion dollars—an average of $493 each. Next comes New England with a total of a billion and a half dollars and an average for cach depositor of $411. John Stuart Mill, the high priest of political economy, used to hold up, as the most precious possession a people can have, 4 thing | he styled “the effective desire or instinct of accumulation.” Appar- | ently each thrifty worker in the United States is carrying around on @n average $44.33 worth more of this valuable commodity than he or she could show last year. ten We hope Chicago's moral outburst is not going to spend itself entirely on Jack Johnson. if rt LATER AND LATER TO BED. managers must raise their curtains promptly at the hoar by The [ress Publissing Oo, (The New York brening World) 34 By Maurice Ketten RcH Tue Day») ( TER ELECTION ~ RCH WITH US CANDIDATE > SURE! | LUCARRY THE BANNERIN IE HAND ANO TRUMPET WiTH THE PARA ERAN ?)

Not many years ago theatres in this country began at 8.
