"Lower" and "higher" classes are both showing courage and kindness. Both are developing finer character.

Self-imposed robbery is committed by those -* -who neglect to do the practical duties that come to hand. No man should be blamed for his limitations-- but he should be sure they are his limitations.

The influence of supply and demand, A Worth-While [avestment Joseph Denny Ts Cost of Production Production costs must be average if they are to be fair to all concerned. The consumér has no right to pay high prices (either directly or in- directly) for a product that has been made or grown under careless or inefficient methods. On the other hand the price cannot properly be fixed at a rate profitable only with mass production . methods and with equipment not within Yeason- able reach of the average prod wo A fj a0 J price that does not provide a decent profit to the average producer will eventually greatly lessen the number of such producers, and will play into the hands of wealthy mass producers, who will be able to quote their own prices for the raw material of such things as are required for the making of butter and bacon.

We also notice that three others were entrusted with certain securities to make the most use of them. Two of the three set to work and doubled the investments handed over to them; the other one was so lazy that he never even placed it in the bank where he might have got some interest on his deposit but placed it in the ground and instead of it gaining it deterior- ated. in value; so that not only he, but his patrons were both losers. it was not with the idea of making a fortune; but because they wished to live such lives as conscience dictated.
