THE, TOTAL DEPOSITS ARE UP
45 MILI,IONS
Yearai increase of 55. Millions
Assets Mere Than Total As-
sets Nine Years Ago.
• Nine years ago the total assets of
the Royal Bank of Canada were 06,-
351,498; the statement for the year
ended November 20th Net, juet issued,
shows total assete of $253,261,247.
The increase within twelve months had
been 66 millions, or considerably more
than the total eesoerces of the Institu-
tion less than a decade ago.
There has been growth from with-
out through the medium of amalgams,.
tiosis, and presently through the -same
medium 20 odd millions will be added
to the bank's assets by the absorption
of the Quebec Beek. But e very con-
siderable proportion of the growth can,
be assigned to the expaneion from
within that cornea Platten:fly, in the
case or a banking .house, from the de-
velopment of public confidence in the
wisdom and integrity of the Manage-
• ment.
- Nine 'years ago the savings funds
entrusted to the Royel Bank amounted
• to 20 millions; they were in excess of
141 millions this year. The bank's
es— ability to render service to the com-
munity has grown concurrently;
against business advances of less than
26 millions eine years ago the cur -
tent statement shoes 87 millions in
Canadian territory and 38 millions
abroad.
The 24 per cent, increase in assets
within the past year is a remarkable
record in a number of ways. A year
ago the bank was able to report a
20 -million dollar gain, bringing assets
close to 200 millions, a new high level.
As the bank depends on general rather
than special conditions for its growth,
and is not the custodian of special
beside; government or other, the 55 -
Million expansion on top of a record-
breaking year is significant of busi-
ness activity and prosperity within the
territory that it serves.
The year's growth; it may be pre-
sumed, has been widely distributed.
Although the general tendency of com-
mercial discounts in Canada through
the year was downward, the Royal
reports an increase of about five
millions or six per cent.; the increase,
actually and relatieely, in current
leans abroad, is larger, about 13%
millions, or 55 per tent. The latter,
it may safely be conjectured, is a
normal sequel to the great Activity
and prosperity of the sugar industry
in the West Indies. That condition
was largely responsible for the feet
that the Royal was one of the
few Canadian banks to report an in-
crease in profits in 1915. The increase
that year was a moderate one of $19,-
ete, 434, but the 1916 statement shows the
substantial gain of $205,731, bringing
profits within about $50,000 of the
bank's best earning year, 1913. There
was slightly better demand for money
in Canada: a much improved demand
in the bank's outside teeritory.
The increased demand abroad, no
doubt, has been met, and probably
something more, by the rising bank
deposits abroad. The breadth of the
situation continues important from the
shareholders' standpoint; a diminished
demand in one section of the bank's
territory can be offset by an increased
demand in another; and the bank is in
a position to direct funds in large
amounts to the point of best demand.
With profits of $2,111,307, equal to
17.87 per cent, earned on the average
paid-up capital, against 16.48 per cent.
the previous year, the bank paid its
usual 12 per cent, dividend ion a slight-
ly increased amount of stock, set aside
$100,000 for pension fund, wrote off
$250,000 on bank premises, paid a tax
of $118,226 on circulation and contri-
buted $60,000 to the Patriotic Fund.
After these deductions $175,874 re-
mained to be added to profit and loss
balance. Comparisons of profit 'arid
loss figures for three years are given

Some of the increased shown in the
balance sheet have already been re-
ferred to in a general way, Deposits
in the aggregate show a gain of about
45 millions, with slightly more than
half the increase under the head of
sayings deposits. Part of the in-
crease, it has been indicated, found
employment in current discounts,
which were approximately 18 millions
higher than a year ago. The bulk of
it, however, is represented among as-
sets of a liquid description—cash, call
loans, securities, banking balances,
etc., all showing increases. Under
one of the security heads there is an
increase of close to 11 millions, which
represents, DO doubt, the purchase of
British Government isecurities in con-
nection with munitions credits.
Tho aggregate of liquid assets is 121
millions, a gain of about 36 millions,
and increasing the proportion of such
assets to public liabilities to 53.2 per
cent, against 49 per cent, the previous
year and 46 per cent. in 1914. Cash,
including cover in the Central gold re-
serve for excess note circulation, re-
presents 16.2 per cent, of liabilities to
the public, against 18.4 per cent. in
1915.
The position in this, as in other re-
spects should be satisfactory to both
shareholders and depositors. The
bank has been able to find reasonably
profitable employment for a large
amount of money, while increasing
actually and relatively the strength of
be- its liquid reserves. Some leading
comparisons of the balance sheets of
the past two years follow:

LI ING GERMAN TRENCHES'
"DICTATORS." y- IN THE DARK.
Lloyd George Is Shortest—Lord Cur-
zon Tallest—Ail Are
"Anti -Booze."
The average age of the War Cabinet
of five member e is 56% years. The
oldest member of it is Lord Milner,
who is 62, while Mr. Lloyd George
and Mr. Henderson are, each of them,
53. Mr. Boner Law is 58, and Lord
Curzon 57. What the average height
of this Cabinet is I am unable to say,
as I do not know what are the stat-
ures of Messrs. Boner Law and Hen-
derson. But Lord Curzon (6 feet 1
inch) is the tallest, and, Mr. Lloyd
George (5 feet 5% inches) is the
shortest member. Lord IVIIIner is 5
feet 11 inches tall.
The five "dictators" represent four
different religious denominations be-
tween them. Lords Curzon and Mil-
ner are Anglicans. Mr. Lloyd George
is a Baptist (of the kind that is
sometimes called' "Campbellite" Bap-
tists), Mt. Henderson is a Wesleyan,
and Mr. Boner Law is a Presbyterian.
The Cabinet will be "anti -booze" • in
its tendencies. Mr. Henderson and
Mr. Boner Law are both lifelong ab-
stainers. Mr. Lloyd George was one
for many years. It was he who de-
clared that drink was Britain's great-
est enemy in this war. The other
two are strong for abstemiousness.
Of the five, Lord Curzon is the only
one who belongs, by birth, to the
"governing class." Lord Milner is of
the professional class. So is Mr.
Lloyd George, but sprung from a low-
lier stock. Mr. Boner Law is a suc-
cessful business man. Mr. Henderson
is a workingman., The two Peers in
the Cabinet are the only two of its
members who have received a univer-
sity education, both of them having
been Balliol men and both favorite
pupils of the great jowett. None of
them are men who are great for
sports or games. Mr. Boner Law and
Mr. Lloyd George are fond of golf, it
is true, but the others are not great
at outdoor amusements. Indeed, Lords
Curzon and Milner are too serious-
minded for amusement of any kind to
loom large in their scheme of things.
It is, by the way, a decidedly hirsute
Cabinet, as all its members, except
Lord Gutzon, grow moustaches, and
Lloyd George, in addition, is so lax
in his visits to the barber's that he
generally grows hair enough for two

much, but it is likely that none but
one whom they had reason to trust

about in that way at all. 'It is certain

Such fleeing as this makes war
seem intensely imperial, and in the
colorless language of the official com-

this: "There was considerable hostile
shelling to -day against our front on
both sides of the Ancre. Our retalia-
tion was prompt and effective."
One knew that if the British shells
were truly searching their way
through the opaque mist to their
charted destination the reply must be:
all that the communique claimed.
Friendly and Unfriendly Shells.
To one only casually acquainted
with the noises of a battlefield there
is always bewilderment at first as to
which are the "friendly" shells going
over toward the enemy and which are
the very unfriendly visitors coming
over, to burst in a wild destroying
fury. In the mystic graynese of the
dripping fog the bewilderment was
accentuated, the ordinary whistle and
"crimp" of the varimalibred shells
translated into a veritable witches'
chorus. So intense was the bombard-
ment at one time, with the shells
rushing in opposite directions over-
head, that the mingled sounds became
like the singing of storm winds.
Each calibre shell has its own par-
ticular plaint, sometimes sadly melan-
choly in the distance and again spite-
fully fierce in its nearness. It is a
great source of satisfaction when,
under the tutelage of an experienced
officer, one comes to distinguish for
one's self the difference between the
outgoing screech of the friendly
shells and the incoming "whang" of
what the "Tommies" call "another
present from the Bitches,"
Visitors to the British front are at -
ways impreesed by the absolute indif-
ferenc of the English, Canadian and
Australian soldiers to the indiscrim-

herewith are given figures of the rela-
tive cost on land from which an aver-

The two methods employed were:
, stump pulling by power, and removal
by dynamite.
A stump puller of the drum and
long lever type was employed, giving
a lifting power of 25 tons with an
'ordinary team. With one hundred.
and twenty stumps, 10 inches and

!smaller stumps, it required an aver -

land driver and two men to remove
each of the large stumps and 5 min-

ones. The 120 stemme required 40
hours, and the smaller ones 6 hours.

On the outward voyage you have a delay
at Bermuda, Barbados, and Trinidad and
you have part of a day at Antigua, Domin-

Grenada. At Demerara the ship stays for
four days, and on the homeward voyage you

a day for over half the trip,when you will
not be on shore a portion of the time. Is
there any sea voyage in the world that is
