REPRESENTATIVES 'IN US. | Powers and Stone, Inc, New York and Chicago, FRIDAY, JUNE 13, 1928 THOSE WHO GET FLEECED I That rére individual who makes a '"kill- ing" on the stockmarket with a shoestring is the exception which proves the rule that the ordinary mortal possessed of heither speculating knowledge nor idle dollars has no business playing the market, Speculating is highly specialized business in which highly trained men are specializing. Sometimes expert fights expert, but more often it is professional against amateur with the odds against the latter. Successful speculation requires brains, courage, capital, a thorough knowledge of fi- nance and conditions, and the ability to with- stand a loss without flinching, It is a game for those who make it their vocation and "those who can afford to lose the money they are hazarding. The stock market brings into bold relief one of the flaws in human nature. Know- ing the cards are stacked against them, ama- teurs dabble and lose, and then blame Wall Street. Each succeeding "killing" is bigger than the last, THE NEW MINISTER Although 'it may be distasteful to him, the modern preacher, whether of a'large or small church, must devote much of his time and thought and energy to administrative problems relating to the church. The way it conducts its temporal affairs may affect the influence of the church. Recognizing this need in the ministry for a knowledge of business administration, the University of Chicago has inaugurated a course in church administration for the stu- dent preachers in the Chicago Theological Seminary. The new course has revived an old debate and provoked new arguments from varied sources. Glenn Frank, president of the Uni- versity of Wisconsin, is among those lured into the discussion. His opinion is: "These courses offered to prospective and practicing clergymen are simply added evi- dence of the tendency to 'drain off into ad- ministrative work an altogether improper amount of the preacher's energy that should be free for his major duties as prophet and priest," . While the weight of the evidence is against "increasing of the preacher's administrative responsibilities, there is precedent in Biblical times for the prevailing state. 'Nehemiah spread the gospel while he un- dertook to rebuild Jerusalem. Paul during the very formative years of the church found much of his day consumed by the worldly 'troubles of the church. FASTIDIOUS Within this first quarter of the twentieth century the immaculate man and womap, _ once conspicuous because of their neat per- sonal appearance, have become commonplace, #nd the slovenly individual stands out in the crowd. It may be said without danger of much exaggeration that present-day stand- ards of tidiness during working hours are higher than the Saturday night and Sunday standards of two decades back.

A lazy man's alibi, » The greatest place on earth is usually some other place. A popular song is something sung by half the world to annoy the other half, . A man likes to blame heredity when it is an acquired trait that causes the trouble. If money really talked, an old dime could tell some wild tales about what it used to buy. : Nerve is a funny thing. You have it with you until you need it. And then you lose it suddenly. ' When a man gets home late he realizes: Mr. Kipling was right about the female of the species. And when a woman reaches thirty her stock dwindles, while a man just begins to make money at that age. An eye-specialist says green quiets the nerves. This is especially true of green backs. EE DCE TASS A St Bit of Verse TO A BOY OF SEVEN If I could give you'a crescent moon, Like a silver bowl for milk-- If I could give you a mine of gold, And costliest suits of silk, 7 I'd hide them over the farthest hill, And say, "When your thighs are strong, Amd your heart beats high, if you want those gifts, Go seek them out with a song!" But the coffers of my soul give love, Each hour till you grow old-- And love has magic, though you miss The moon and mine of gold !-~Children. --Earl Bigelow Brown oi OLD ORCHARD TREES Stretching out friendly arms all gnarled and mossy, Calling to wanderers with a voice unheard, Guardians kind through days of fragrant weather, ; Sheltering fragile nest and tender bird, Part of the acres youth has long deserted, , Part of the homesteads that have vanish- ed quite, Greeting the dawn which breaks o'er dis- tant mountains, > Watching the silver stars which gem the night. ) Musing they stand, and ever patient waiting, Peering at shade and sun, as old folk will, Drowsing at noontide, soothed by brown bees humming, Waksned by winds that frolic from the ill, ia ~--Alix Thorn SUPERLATIVES The leaves, somehow, are greener When they play around with June, As roses open pinker, day by day; And there's never any question RE That the first real lover's moon Is the silver witch she pilots down the bay.

That seems to be a kindly thing and quite proper. Too long has the bride-to-be been given all the at- tention. She is hope-chested and show- ered; people gather at a troussean tea and go into raptures over her elaborate preparations, and then on the day of the wedding the bride surely receives by far the greater portion of attention, smiles and tears. This Kitchener plan of rome sort of a shower for the bride- groom has its good points. He could be presented with many ar- ticles of wearing apparel, likewise & lawn mower, snow shovel, ash sifter, a rake, hoe, spade, etc. This practical recognition of the fact that there is a bridegroom around a wedding scene has come none too soon, * * .

The importance of the nursing profession was empha- sized and the vast opportunities for good were also stressed, After years of thorough training these graduate nurses are entering upon a wide field of usefulness. The nobility of their work, its re- sponsibilities, its discouragements, were all dwelt upon by speakers at the graduation, but perhaps, the most valuable bit of advice was given by Dr. W. J. Magner, patho- logist of St. Michael's hospital-- "Don't gospip." While the adjuration might well be taken to heart by men and wo- men in general, it is perhaps doub- ly important that one admitted to the intimacies' of many households during stress of fllness should learn the wise precept of silence. A nurse is in close touch with every phase of family life and has abundant opportunities to see and hear much that bears upon the domestic situation in the homes of her patients. But the same code of honor that prevents a doctor from making any disclosures re- sistant in the sickroom to silence, A BOND OF EMPIRE Students of the subject are never at a loss in enumerating the ties that hold together the nations that constitute what used to be called the British Empire and is now more fashionably known as the British Commonwealth. They men- tion the Crown, the cement of a comman language, and the tradi- tion of parliamentary self-govern- ment. They never mention the an- nual event which takes place at this season on Epsom Downs, Yet it is doubtful whether as many British hearts in the seven seas turn to one spot on any other occa- sion as they do on Derby Day. The winner of the Calcutta sweepstakes this yar is sald to be either a seanran now on his way to Golomho, Ceylon, or an officer in the West African police force. Patriotism alone will not explain the grip which the Derby holds on men in the Gulf of Guinea jungles or in the Indian Ocean. The prizes are dazzling; In the present in- stance, more than $1,250,000. Onee a year, at least, England yields to no other country in the emphasis with which fortune smiles on oh- scure individuals. The Derby sweepstakes raises clerks and ste- nographers to affluence. If for Derby Day we read a love of sport in general, there can be no doubt that we have here a real hond of empire. The crowds of half a million on Epsom Downs and of nearly a quarter of a million at the British football champion- ships are duplicated, proportionate- ly, in every one of the Dominions garding his patients pledges his as- | ---- IENCEX SPELLS STRENGTH OF DI RECTORS" BOARD President Dc Securities Corporation, Limited Vice-President Canadian Bank of Commerce Vice-President National Trust Company, Limited! .
