Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Banking, Currency, and the Exchanges It would seem not only desirable but necessary that when suggestions are thrown out for the improvement of methods and systems, practical bankers should be the recognised authorities, by virtue of their closer acquaintance with the practice of their craft. The study of the theory and practice of banking no doubt suffers considerable neglect by reason of there being no special qualifications demanded of those who are elected into the service of banking institutions. A student seldom takes a deep interest in any subject until he has removed much of that elementary matter which forms the exterior crust of all sciences, and which requires diligent application to succeed in penetrating; after which the interest becomes more and more engaged.
