“Their souls need money." How
strange as sound that has! And yet
how very true it is!

Money is not a thing in itself. it is
only a symbol. When peepie become
confused and think it is a thing in it-
self-when they deny themselves
everything good far its possession—
then, indeed. “the love of money is the
root of evil." Not money the root of
evil, but “the love of money." ’

Every dollar has two sides. one good.
one had. When it is the symbol of eyes
ricerof selfishness. or unjust power,
then the bad side is up.

But. money is also the symbol ofali
good things purchassble with it. it
stands for-the pleasant, seemly side of
life. A health commissioner has re-
cently adopted the motto, “Health is
pnrchasablc." We know now it is true.
Money spent for sunny homes, for good
food, for time outdoors, prevents tu-

spent for good drainage prevents ty-

Educiitlon in pnrchasable. Comfort
is purcllasable. Cleanliness costs
money.

Everything good in life demands
money in serum-way or other. That is
why the earning of money carries with
it self'respcct. it means that the cam-
er has helped his felldw-mcu.

Money is the measure of service.
Sometimes the weights are false. but
these cases are exceptions.

Why then scorn money? Why look
down on the earning of it! There is
nothing worthier than honest pay for
honest service.

The suggestion that a, memorial

the John B. Stetson Co. was made
by John Waramaker, 'the famous
Philadelphia merchant. in the course
of a. noonday address in the audi-
torium of the Stetson factory. which
was reported to the Newspapers of
that city as foilowa:

“Mr. Wanamaker paid his tribute
to the worth of John B. Stetson as a
mauwho created with his hands as
we'll as his brain, and told his licor-
ers that they should be proud of be-
ing part of one of the (our great
industries that make Philadelphia
famous throughout the world. These.
he said. are the Baldwin Locomotive
Works. Crunp‘e shipyard. Diaston
Saw Works. and Stetson hat factory.

"Mr. Wanamaker explained that if
for ‘a year: each of the 6.000 employee
should contribute 2‘ cents a week
the fund would reach a. total of $78.-
000. He suggested the site at the
Broad sill-cot entrance to the North-

call for darbies is smaller this year
than in several years previous. The
fact that the soft but is in Vogue at

According to the reprcleutative of
one of tilt leading houses in the coun-
