Dollar bills possess a life of only
eight months. whereas treasury ex-
perts say they should continue in
circulation at least a year. In the
pre-war days the average bill was
good for 14 to 15 months of service.
in the next year more small bills
than in any prior 12 months. In or-
der to prolong the life of thebill. it
will be "cured" or “seasoned" for
several weeks before being put into
circulation. This will. it is expected,
extend its service. Because of the
necessary reserve ‘ accumulation.
therefore. the Government printing
presses will break the records.
But the short life of the bill is not
due entirely to the lac kof "season-
ing." In the pro-war days. the av-
erage man carried less currency in
his clothing. The higher prices of
commodities and a change in mod-

English Lecturers Not So Plenty
In America.
(Mann flatten in New York Evening Post)
The "we-haveswith-us-tonight"
season now drawing to a close has
been slightly conspiclous because of
the absence of English author-lec-
turcrs.
The past season has seen few of
them on the platform. Just as many
have come to these shores as in
other years, but they have not. come
to lecture. Mr. Arlen, 'for instance.
gave himself 11. liberal holiday in
these parts. but never so much as
ventured into town hall. Somerset
Maugham. Thomas Burke. Gilbert
Parker. E. Phillips Oppenheimer.
Jeffrey h‘arnel and John Galsworihy
have all passed this way. but with-
out collecting lccturo i‘ccs.
And so we asked James B. Pond
about it. Mr. Pond is an importer
of lecturers. His father was before
him. The late Maj. J. B. Pond be-
gun the business half a century ago
and thc_son has carried it on. in
the span the two have dealt with
most of the great names of the
time.
“There has been a change" said
Mr. Pond “Auditoriums no1e1
again will be flooded with English
literary lecturers. A few may come
in the future, 'but the influx will
never again reach the peak of a
few years ago.
“The reason is simple. Some
years ago the English author wrote
his little novel. sold it to a London
publisher for a fairly modest sum.
and sat himself clown to write an-
other. Ila didn't bother much
about the American rights. In those
days if a lecture manager wont
abroad ‘and offered the author a
tour of this country with expenses
paid he accepted on the theory it
would be an excellent chance to see
the country free.
“But now America has discovered
the English author in an enormous
way. He sells his books to publish-
ers, to magazines and to syndicates
He makes as much out of his Am-
erican rights to one novel as he did
out of his entire rights to the same
sort of book in the old days. And
he is financially independent to
travel in America without his cx~
penses being footed.
"Then; too. the flood of English
author~novellsts a few years back
had something to do with it. It got
so that a. Chicago newspaper chro‘n-
icled under 'Cniumities of the Day'
the arrival of another English lec~
turer. That. incidentally. is a. story
in itself. It happened that the lec~
turer was Lord Dunsany. Ho didnt
appreciate the little joke and almost
refused to'go on with his talk that
evening.
“These things. and others. have
brought about the change. And un-
less the pendulum swings. English
author-lecturers will be few in the
future. Of course. you never can
tell what will happen W. 13. Yeats.
for instance. wanted to put a new
roof on his castle a few years ago
‘ .C‘IAP’I‘EE' . ,
"Did you come to get the details?
Lonnie's remark. ‘made' Michael
wince. Ho reddened with anger.
"I think you know me well
enough not to need to insult me "
This from Lonnie! The acid burned
deep.
"Forgive me. Mikel Please!" He
reached and grasped his friend's
hand. “I'm sorry—damned sorry. I
didn‘t mean iii If only you knew
what hell I’ve been throi ‘ in the
' ‘. I mldfl‘t lflve
So he came to America and lectured
for me to pay for ‘the roof. But im—
lcss it springs a leak in the next
few years I doubt whether he will
come b.\~k to the platform.”
Many celebrities have sailed un-
der the banner of the Pond family
since Mai. Pond. then a young
newspaper reporter. came East from
Salt Lake City more than 50 years
ago with Ann Elisa. Young as his
first lecturer. He remained here to
deal with big names.
He brought out such lecturers as
Charles Sumner. John B. Gough.
William Lloyd Garrison and Henry
Ward Beecher. who between 1875
and 1887 alone traveled 3.000 miles
and gave 1.261 lectures. The era of
humorists followad with Mark
Twain. Bill Nye. George W. Cable
and James Whltcomb Riley as its
stars.
Then Stanley came out of Africa
utter his second trip and drew al-
most 3300.000 at lecture halls in a.
hundred nights. Admiral Peary
made a successful tour even before
he discovered the North Pole. Gen.
Lew Wallace was another star. The
English influx really started along
in 1806. with Anthony Hope. llali
Cslne. Israel Zongwill » and Sarah
Grand.
When Maj. Pond died his son
took ov'er his work. The names he
has dealt with are, perhaps. a. little,
more familiar. There was Lil's. Em-
mallno Pankhurst. for instance.
when she was at the height of her
suffrage fight, and John Kendrick
Bangs and Helen Keller and Lady
Gregory and John Masefield and
Rnblndrannih Tagore and Blasco
lbanez.
"Of all the celebrities I have
known," he says. "i loved Rabind-
rannth Tagore the most. The Hindu
poet had about him an atmosphere
of peace that was infectious.
I traveled with him for weeks.
No matter how early I rose in the
morning 1 would invariably find him
sitting by the window looking to-
ward the new day in peaceful medi-
tation. «When he turned to greet me
therewas a look on his face that
would put peace into any cne's
heart. -
“And the most tempestuous of
them all was Ibanez. the Spanish
novelist. Never have I seen so fiery
a temperament. Everything was
met with in. flow of language and
wild gesticulation. In Chicago he
didn't like his hotel room. The view
wasn‘t what he wanted. and the
roar. of elevated . trains disturbed
his peace. So. after exhaustinghis
remarkable vocabulary without evl. »
dently venting his full wrath. he
threw his hat upon the floor and
jumped on it for several minutes.
"But foreign lecturers aren't so
eager to come here any more. .I
tried to bring over Freud. the psy-
choanlyst. and Steinach. the gland
specialist. not long ago. Neither
would come. " *
A peculiar light was ignited in
Lonnio's eyes. Ids squeezed Mich-
aeli‘s hand again. then released his
gr p.
"I'd like to tell you. Mlko—~"
"Don‘ t, Lonnie; don' t tell me any-

Michael found Llluh in a ravish- ‘

Of course she looked up expectantiy

His wife was up and busy roar-

“Dearest. I've got something to

Michael's brow wrinkled. He guess-

He smiled his amazement.

Michael laughed. “Yes, wants a

“I don’t think that's‘vcry funny.

There were no further words for

Too Big a Job
(New York Times)
Twenty carrlcrhplgeons described '
as "highly trained" are to be taken
into the Arctic. it is reported by
Donald hlachllllan. This is surpris-
ing news. in these days of radio.
though of‘ course there 's ‘a possi-
bility that the birds. escaping or
released in u. disaster that de-
stroyed radio apparatus, might be a.
better means of communication with
the south. The possibility is a small
one. however. and the phrase
“highly trained" is puzzling to any~
body who knows the narrow limi-
tations within which the service of
pigeons is confined. All the training
a“hemer" has or can have is de-
rived from carrying him successively
farther and farther from his birth-
place aud so enabling him to in am
the lay of the land which he must
fly over if he is to get back.
Why h’e should have such an un-
~ usual; such a desperate urge to re-
turn to his accustomed quarters is
about the only mystery in relation
to these birds and their achieve-
,ments are almost trivial in com-
parison with those of the migrants
of many species that cross our skies

of them will fly from Etah in

‘Bondholders
lly GEORGE T. HUGHES.
(Copyright, 1925.)
One of the advantages that the
becomes evident in times of depress
slon in the industry represented.
Take. for instance.,tho case of the
sugar producers. There is now be-
ing marketed the largest crop of an.
gar on record and. for the. last six
months or more there has been a
steady drop in the price of raw su-
gar. This is a world-wide condition.
Not only in Cuba. where the United
States buys most of its cane sugar.
but in Europe there has been a great
increase in boot sugar production.
Under these circumstances it is
reasonable to.suppose that the pro-
file of the sugar producing compan-
ies will make an unsatisfactory show-
ing as compared with results of a
your ego. Prices of sugar stocks.
that is of the Cuban producing com-
panies. have lagged behind the gen-
eral market inconsequence. invests
ors sensing this state of affairs and
not caring to take the risk of a less-
ened margin between dividends and
earnings.
To acct-lain extent the price of
sugar company bonds has been af-
fected also. but to a much less ex-
tent, and this is as it should be. Su-
gar is an essential commodity and.
if the price is now below the cost
of production. it is absolutely cer-
tain that it will not stay thet‘e inde-
finitely. All experience teaches that
just as high prices limit consump—
tion. so low prces stimulate demand.
Sooner or later well-managed. cen-
servatlveiy capitalized sugar produc-
ing companies will again operate at
satisfactory profits.
Meanwhile the bondholders. as-
suming that his bond is the obliga-
lion of a corporation in the class lust
described. has little occasion for
worry compared with the concern
felt by the stockholder. I am not
saying that all sugar company bonds
are worry-proof or that all sugar
company stocks are speculative.
There are exceptions to all rules.
The point is that the bondholdor can
look with more complacency upon
the outlook than the stockholder.
