1 and that money he has reimesled in
this city so that its growth might
continue.
This is what he said:
“All this week I haie been in
1 conference with a prominent manu-
: facturer. He is thinking of locating
3 here. I hate a building site which
2 would be suitable for his purpose.
"When he asked me for terms of

“come to the city. _
“Then every merchant would be
benefited and I as a property own-
er would be benefited and the city

more than a few dollars damage.

World.)
Luck of knowledge of the ways of
business. of both good business and
bad. and a certain gullibility. or be-
lief in a pot of gold at the foot of
every rainbow—things a real busi-
ness man is supposed to have risen
above—are. generally held respon-
sible for the rather free investment
in unsound securities. This, how-
ever, is not the fact. Out of 331
instances studied, 40 per cent... of
the victims were classed as "busi-
ness men." ‘
Not only so. but in classifying the
women losers in worthless securi-
ties. 23 per cent" or nearly a quart-
er of the total. come under the head
of “business" women—proprietors
of businesses, or boss who receive
high salaries. as distinguished from
stenographers and clerks. By way
of comparison .and. perhaps. to dis-
prove popular supposition as to the
traditional type of victim. the sur-
vey made by the New York Uni-
versity report says:
"Perhaps a bit of humor as‘well
as pathos may be found in rthe case
of the one individual who reported
her occupation as that of 'deow.‘ “
in fact, the returns were surpris-
ing as to the sort of people who lose
money in these bad sick schemes.
In addition to the 59 business men.
including merchants. 4 grocers. 4
real estate men. 2 hotel men, 2 con-
tractors, there were 17 accountants.
auditors and bookkeepers. 15 man-
agers and superintendents. ‘14 law-
yers. 13 manufacturers. 10 brokers
and traders and 2 bankers. making
a. total of 129. or 39 per cent. of
the total. a list. of occupations that
further refutes the theory that
people who buy bad securities are
ignorant. unsophisticated. or just
naturally foolish.
There is. however. an appreciable
impresentation of the classes at
whose doors the tendency to buy
such stuff is usually laid. There were
36 mechanics and laborers found in
the survey. 31 clerks. 14 students. 14
farmers. 13 dentists. 12 physicians.
11 professors and teachers 2 clergy-
men. 1 economist.‘
Among the women who reported
losses. there were 9 housewives. 4
housekeepers. 3 domestics and wait-
resses. 2 seamstresses. 2 teachers
and 2 boarding house keepers.

CHAPTER CXXXYIII.
“Going to have guests tonight.
Mrs. Michael?" Sally “'ai'bc asked
the question as she watched Lilah's
studious toll over the drcssing of
the table for dinner, puzzled by the
fact that only two plates were laid.
“So. Sally. just Mr. Michael and
myelf."
“In this the anniversary of some-
thing?"
"Why. no“ Sally." The reason
for the housekeeper's curiosity sud-
denly dawned upon her. "Oh. I'm
just fixing tip a little surprise for
him."
Sally was still puzzled. but she
went off into the rear of the house
without further questions. But she
was inspired to put a little extra
care into the dinner cookery. Per-
haps. she thought. he would call'
her in and compliment her, as he
used to do. it was many weeks
now since she had been compli-
mented on anything by the master
of the house.
Lilah met her husband in the
entrance-hall. kissed him. helped
him off with his coat. and caused
him to regard her with some sur-
prise. .
“Now. don't stop down here. but
go upstairs and put on your dinner
clothes. and don't take. as much
time as you'd like because dinner
will be served promptly at 7.
o'clock."
She refused to answer the ques-
tion his eyes asked, and pushed
him gently toward the stairs. “Be
sure you shave, dear. You've been
rather careless about that lately.
I don’t like to have my face torn
up by barbed wire." ~

“Go ahead and do as mama tells

He decided to play the game. and;
sat down on the lounge in light a'
cigarette,
"Your dinner clothes need press-

morning. and I'll send them to the
cleaners."
He nodded.

Sally. in her usual stiffly etarched
apron of glistening white. and her
funny little. cap. rang the dinner
chimes. Lilah arose and offered her
arm. Michael stiffened himself.and
together they solemnly marched into
the dining room. His eyes were de-
lighted by the sight of the table. she
watched him for appreciation.
"This is so lovely. You're a per—
fect dear!" He stopped and kissed
her. "And you. too, Sally."
'Both women beamed.

he was carving. "I wish we'd have

“Civilized?" He smiled.

fiectcd his pleasure. She would
show him! She thought of the re-
solves she had made that afternoon.
'l'hey gossiped of this and that.
Then. Michael. along with a budget
of news, confided: “That little
l—lorncr girl was in today. looking
for a job. I'm sorry I ever ."
Lilah was frowning. She tried
to smile. remembering her resolves
of the afternoon. Michael paused.
and an ominous silence reigned.

Pinchot at Home ‘
(New London Day)

Aside from the fact that Pinchot
should know as well as anybody
else that prohibition cannot be en-
forced until ws spend several hun-
dred million a year to do it. and
until we practically put the country
under martial law to do it. and
until all the people want us to do
it. the man may be talking honest-
ly and undemagoglcally. But his
talk would sound more honest. and
more free from the desire to gain
publicity on hot air. if Pennsylvania.
were free from bootleggers
The test of a man's sincerity is
not what he says. but what he
does. Governor Pinchot says that.
Mellon. as head of the prohibition
enforcement. department‘.‘ is derelict
in his duty. The shoe is on the
other foot. Mellon has made a dry
country—or a. fairly dry country.
from the Mississippi to the Rockies
barring patches of Missouri. Iowa
and Oklahoma. in Pennsylvania.
there‘s no more aridlty than in
New York. Philadelphia still main-
tains barrooms on corners. and they
still sell hoo ch in the bar-rooms.
Mr. Pinchot news as much. You
can buy Scotch in Philadelphia or
Chester for from 860 to 880 a case.
Harrisburg from 375 to 890 a case.
in Pittsburgh from 875 to 8100 a
case. Pinchot's state has a dry
law—Pinchot's own pet law. But
Pinchot'l government is Just as wet
as Mslion's.

Tinchot
(Waterbury American)
Gov. Pinchot's attack on Secretary
Mellon seems to be taken by every-
body at its true value. It is a move
in Pennsylvania politics. Pinchot
wants to be senator or something
and Mellon, being of the other Rs-
publican faction. is an obstacle to
his ambition. As in the quarrel he
fostered between Roosevelt and Taft
so in this case he puts his personal
feelings and interests before those
of the party. In this case. as in
that. he is likely to have no success
except to divide the party and bring
it to defeat. His complaint that the
treasury department is remiss in
enforcing the Volstead law. because
of Secretary Mellon's connection
with the liquor business. is a
trumped up thing. Nobody be-
lieves it. At the worst the federal
law‘ is being enforced by the gov-
ernment quite as successfully as the
law is being enforced- in Pennsyl
vania. notwithstanding all of Gov.
Pinchot's hint! and blow.

President Coolidge approaches a.

Mr. Frank Stearns. his closest friend.
would be worth a study. They take
each other as a matter of course.
They will pass each other in the
White House corridors without so
much as saying “Good morning."
The President needs people about
him. but he requires no real inti-
mates. There is no inner circle.

The Credit Unions
There are now twenty-one States

having enacted the necessary legis-
lation this your. The spread of this
movement has brought out discus-
sion as to the differences between
the Morris Plan Banks and the Cred-
it L'nlons. lvloth institutions are or-
ganized to mt‘t't the need of small
loans to borrowers. who otherwise
would have no credit facilities. Both
are effective agencies to combat the
‘loan shark."
The lilttris Plan Bank. however.
npt‘l‘dits in .i distinct field from the
Credit Union. The banks get their
capital i'rt-n. individual investors, who
buy stock on which they are paid
tair dividends in order to supply
money to is loaned to individual
borrowers outside this group of in-
vesting mcnibers. The Credit Union
is entirely co-operative and is or-
ganized within and loaned to a spec-
ified and limited group. To be I.
member of a Credit Union one must
own a share; to be. a borrowfi. one
must be, a member. while all the
profits go to the members them-
selves and none to outsiders. The
Credit UniOn always begins on a
very small scale and the only re.
sources it ever has is the money its
members save. In this way the Cred-
it Unlon becomes a great encourage-
ment of thrift. its mcmbers work
out their own salvation and the safe-
ty of the plan depends in great meas-
ure upon the personal acquaintance
which the union officers have with
their member borrowers. In addi-
tion. they have the support which
comes from supervision by the State
Banking Department.
The Credit Union does not serve
the general public. It‘ leaves that
field to the Morris Plan Bank. and
there is room for both. even though
the Credit Union should grow even
more rapidly in the next few years
than it has in the past. _

FALSEHOOD.
Still do the stars impart. their light
To these that travel in the night:
Still time runs on. nor doth the hand
0r shadow on the dial stand;
The streams still glide and constant
are:
Only thy mind i
Untrue I find.
Which carelessly
Neglects to be.
Like stream or shadow. hand or star.
Fool that I am! I do recall
My words. and swear tho'rt like them
all.
Thou seem’st like stars to nourish
fire.
But 0 how cold is thy desire!
And like the hand upon the grass
Thou point’st at me
In mockery: i
If I come nigh
Shade-like thou'll fly,
And as the stream with murmur
