塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《节俭》· Thrift · 投资

This admirable advice was not lost. One institution after another embraced the plan, and preliminary savings banks were, shortly established in connection with the principal mechanics' institutes throughout Yorkshire. Those established at Huddersfield, Halifax, Bradford, Leeds, and York, were exceedingly successful. The Penny Banks established at Halifax consisted of a central bank and seven subordinate branches. The number of members, and the average amount of the sums deposited with them, continued to increase from year to year. Fourteen Penny Banks were established at Bradford; and after the depositors had formed the habit of saving in the smaller banks, they transferred them in bulk to the ordinary Savings Bank.

白话

这条极好的建议没有被忽视。一个又一个机构采纳了该计划,约克郡各地的主要机械学院很快都附设了预备储蓄银行。哈德斯菲尔德、哈利法克斯、布拉德福德、利兹和约克等地设立的银行都非常成功。哈利法克斯的便士银行由一个中心银行和七个下属分支组成,会员人数和平均存款额逐年增加。布拉德福德设立了十四家便士银行;储户在小银行养成储蓄习惯后,就把钱整笔转存到普通储蓄银行。

上下文
