BANK DEPOSITS CAIN.
In Nine Year In Oregon they In
crease $42,000,000, Speaking
for Our Progres.
Salem Journal: How the bunk de
posits in slate and national banki in
Oregon have grown from $85,0.OO0
to $127,000,01X1 lincc I'XW it shown on
a chart which hat been prepared by S.
G. S intent, stile superintendent o(
banks. Following the panic in 1W in
this state there were I1.' I national and
suite banks and now there are 261
hanks of which 84 are national and
177 operate under a state charter.
Nine years ago there were 59 na
tional banks and 132 state banks.
From 1908 to 1910, inclusive, banks
deposits in the Mate rose steadily
without fluctuation from $85,000,000
to $119,000,000. From the, first of
1911 to the close of 1913' deposits in
national ar,d state banks showed slinlit
fluctuations, with a rising tendency.
At the rinse of 1913 deposits in Ore.
jon touched their IiIkIi mark with a t
Ul of $133,000,000. With the outbreak
of war in Europe a decrease resulted,
until at the beginning of 1915 depos
its aggregated only $1 17,000,000. Since
then, however, conditions have stead
ily improved, and the gain in deposits
has been steady until now they total
$127,000,000.
The national banks in 1914 began to
gain in deposits, while state institu
tions fell olf. This fact is accounted
(or, according to Superintendent Sar
gent, because in 1914 the Security Sav
ings Si Trust Company, of Portland,
was consolidated with the First Na
tional Hanlc of Portland. The decrease
in sine bank deposits at this time was
approximately $10,000,000. Since the
third call of 1915. however, deposits
in Oregon state banks have risen
steadily, gaining about $5,000,000 in
the last six mouths.
Slate bank deposits now total ap
proximately $49,000,000, while depos
its in national banks of the state to
tal approximately $78,000,000,

There is a circus atmosphere in town
this morning and its all due to an
attractively lettered bright red pas
senger coach that came in from the
northtand very early this morning
and was shunted on the siding across
from the S. P. depot. The visitor is
the advertising car of the famous
John Robinson Ten Big Shows which
arc scheduled to appear in Albany
May 26 for two performances. With
the advance car is a brigade of 24
billposters, bannermen and program
boys, all of whom are putting in a
strenuous day distributing the billing
matter that heralds the coming of the
big circus and menagerie.
This is the eighty-ninth annual pil
grimage of the Robinson Shows and
it is said to be close on to a score of
years since the Pacific Coast has been
visited by them. As far as can be
learned from Albany folks, this is
the first time the Robinson circus has
ever been in this vicinity.
The Robinson shows are an insti
tution back in the Middle West and
more particularly "Down South" be
low the "Mason Dixie Line," where
their coming is looked forward to
with eager expectancy as one of the
very important local annual events.
Out this way, it is a c?sc of making
new acquaintances, but judging from
the very favorable reports that have
preceded the circus from other sec
tions of the for West, where it has al
ready pppeared, the attraction seems
to be making quite the same big hit
hereabouts as it has always scored
on the other side of the Sierras.
The No. 2 advertising car will be
here a week hence to finish whatever
heralding there may be left to do,
and then next in order will arrive the
big show with its four special train-
loads of curious and interesting
freight. That will be the one day
when every small boy and little Miss
in Albany will give the public school a
secondary thought and consideration.
If some little urchin takes a notion
to play "hookey" that morning in or
der to get a glimpse of the big ele
phant in the free street parade and
brayes the parental anger just to
take a sly peep under the sidewalls of
thebig white top, just lay the blame to
the innoculation. of the circus germ
and remember that you grown ups
were boys yourselves once on a time.
And for that matter, the same bug
is likely to get you, too, before the
circus day is over. Just you wait un
til you hear ti e siren shrieks of the

DONT BE A PIKER
Sometime a customer says of a store, "Oh, they axe talking for their
own good." ,
This is particularly true when a merchant ay, "Boy Early"!
But let's consider it from your standpoint. Suppose you want a suit of
clothe for warm weather. ' You have decided to buy Clothcraft because
you're satisfied that you can't get any better value or any more service sat
isfaction at the price $10 to $25. ' , '
You put it off till midsummer. Then, even if you get the suit you wanted,
the season is half gone and you lose the benefit of having had the suit the
firt half of the summer.
Do you see the point? Come in and well tell you other reasons. .

Billie Burke AH Right
After seeing Billie Burke in Peggy
it is easy to see how she has captured
the country. She certainly acts the
most naturally and in the sweetest way
of any of them. Peggy will be seen

packed houses she gets everywhere.
