Oregon now has a -total of 284 banks. 191 state .and" 93 national, as against 272 183 state and 89 national banks a year ago. a net gain of 12 banks in the 12 months. Ten new state banks and 4 national banks were char tered 'during the past yar. whereas two state banks have gone out of existence in that, time the . Scandinavian-American bank of Astoria.; through absorption by larly tho clerks.- waiters arid nftaids,' have a way of helping an American, if he doesn't let that" way irritate him. The- other day when I was getting settled (ln a new. bjarding house-,"- I asked i the waitress for a napkin, which, pver here, is lux ury.,, v- :-' k . Vph.'-' she said, ""the head waiter, will bring; you a. serviette." - . . . At' another time, in a railway ilimch counter, I asked the waitress fori some rookies' and tbok the pains to call; them butcuits. ehe handed' me somethinig dif ferent and I pointed to what I wanted. "Oh. those aren't biscuits. Those are cakes." - ! : Cookies, of course, are out of thei ques tion. 4 With another American In went Into a confeetionery atore in "Plymouth while th Mayflower celebrations Were in rrogress and the shops were boasting j "cream ices." I asked for cookies Just to net what would hanrwn The waitress did not know what' I was talking about. Then I asked in as English a way air I i could, for some biscuits. She brought some tea wafers, and then. 'the; head waitress.! I explained, chiefly ' in sign language what 'I wanted. They turned out to be frosted cakes. ' . I j COCID MIX IT HIMSELF j ' In a-tea shop that advertised Am'erican soft drinks I asked ,' for a ' chocolate, malted milk. I recelyed a glass if hot malted milk and a cup of hot chocolate, with instructions from the cook to the effect that, if that "was not' -what I wanted, I could mix it myself.' j In spite of these differences and the pains tha English, take to let an Ameri can know they are different, ope finds frequently. -iraces or Americanisms, par 'ticularfy In the slang expressions. At a little hotel In Dorchester, where I per suaded the waitress to fry me three eggs instead of the proverbial one, she came back and asked, timidlyf "How do you want your egffs,. turned over, or sunny side up?" - That surp'rised me, but I didn't let her know it. The towjn was one quite out of the Way, where few Americans are likely to go. and i won dered If that expression had actually Jeen coined there. -When she brought 'the eggs. I said, "Listen,, here, "where did you get-that 'sunny side up'?' ji . "Oh," she replied, "there was an American here abotat two years ago and when I asked him show he wantjed bfs eggs, he said that. I asked him what it meant, and he said it was very: much used over there.t. , KLAXO IS FAMILIAR 'I , In another town I heard some English soldiers say that they had been f chew ing -the fat," and the "waitress there ?e plwd to one ot, their remarks, "Axe you kidding me?" ,-'..- 1 ; ' i .When I was going along a road, how ever, and a man iassinb on a bicycle asked me how to pet to some plaice and I replied, 'Til be darned if I know," he said, "Oh, will you? .Thank you." ! i That painstaking hank you" Is used a great deal more in England than- it Is Is lh the United States. Once a ; friend of mine in the states paid me some money I had loaned him and I thanked him. "Huh'," he remarked, ; "what are you thanking me for?' It was your money wasn't It?" I should like ltd see r.imr sit down- to a. meal in an English restaurant and be thanked for ! every- thing the waiter brings him. Between the Ertglish paying waiters and the paid. iWaiters, there is almost Invariably an exchange of ihatik-yous. for everything that Is put on the -table. Theni when the food 1s all on. and the paid j waiter is to leave for longer than usual, he squares off. ' puts his heels together and says it particularly graciously. FAMILIAR SOOD They don't really, fe,s a matter of fact. say '.thank you." (They yse a corruption of ltJN When an American says this, it Is so unusual that he can afford to take time and say it well. The English how ever, -have shortened it into one syllable, -kew.' and they render it ina peculiar way that no American I have met yet, has - been able to. imitate. Usually it sounds like the hiccoughs one used to hear in the States. .' ' " " - . There Is an exsption to this. When an English person asks -someone ito pass him anything, he says, "Thank you very much," when tha operation starts, , and when he has .received the desired, artt te, he-says his "kew." mis pQiiieness is oniy a sample of tne .politeness that Americans -notice here - very quickly on thelf arrlvah - The bus conductor thanks you when he collects your- fare. . He thanks you. as does ev eryone else, when you step out of his . way to let him pass. This is typical of the formality that Is. preserved) in all writing and speaking. Letters to! the ed : ltors of papers usually begin, by icraving the indulffnce of the editor and the'pub Tlic, Or something .equally decorous. In . street speech one hears often, If I tray be pardoned for saying," "In my humble. opinion," and "Without wishing to enter into personalities." " Also, .there Is the "sorry?' i for any Inconvenience or "for. a hurried bumping on the sidewalk, in the States, and-particularly :ih New -ivin. viij-, vnn is overcome wnn cour tesy If one is picked up" after being ' knocked down. The use of "sir" in Eng land is. also quite Common. JHen. also, mra "gentlemen" and women are "ladies." '. . ' ' i ' . Investigate Array Stores :- sston.' Jan. . I. (I.
