Something of this kind has been done in Portland for years, by means of the Crittenden Home, and if this serves the purpose best, it should be fbetter supported and well-to-do peo ple should take a greater Interest ln it. And if a new institution or. any better or more affective way for res- culng girls from destruction is pos sible it ought to be encouraged and supported. - And It Is not only girls that have already "gone to the bad" to some extent, but homeless or neglected glrur who have not yet fallen that need observance, care and guidance. In a city the size of Portland there are always many such girls, either without parents or with, bad or Irre sponsible parents, who through com paratively slight efforts could be kept ,from making wrecks of tneir lives. What an enormous social gals it would be If scores of such girls could every year be turned Into the right direction Instead of being allowed, unnoticed snd uncared for, to drift into the downhill road.

He says in substance, let he depositor look out for himself, but protect the banker. it is tne peoples money tne panics re usinar to do business on. Why hould not the bankers be willing: to guarantee their depositors the same protection that they themselves de mand? Why does Mr. Meyer fear the loss of the banker while he says Jioth lng concerning the toss of the depositor? A few hundred years aa-o our fore fathers believed In the divine right of kings. They did not dream that they themselves had any rights, but with ndvanced thought and Intelligence and an awakening public conscience., men ore learning that one man or set of men have no more rights than another.
