T BEHOOVED Rlngllng, as the .employer of Finkelstein for over a period of twenty-five years, to attend the funeral of one who had served him well. It was one of the things one did out of a sense of the** fitness of things. For twenty-five years, the Innocuous Finkelstein, patient, plodding, an old faithful in the bookkeeping department of the large cooperage concern of which Ringling was president, had been part and parcel of the daily routine; of the remunerative affairs which had mad* Rlngllng, at sixty, many times a millionaire. Yes, It was with a sense of the appropriateness of such a gesture, that on the day of Finkelstein'* funeral Rlngllng directed his chauffeur to drive him to the residence of the old employee who had delivered, through the years, such faithful service. It was gratifying to come within sight of Flnfcelsteln's home. It showed that here was a man whose living wage had been sufficient to enable him to dwell in the cleanliness and decency of the small but well-kept brick dwelling, surrounded by Its plot of garden which stood on a tree lined little side street of a small suburb outside the limits of the great city; here was a man whose employer, he, Rlngllng, had allowed a decent living wage. Nothing remarkable about Finkelstein either, except his dog-like fidelity to routine. As a matter of fact, reflected Ringling to himself, riding along the modest neighborhoods which lay so outside his pale, of late years he might easily have replaced Finkelstein with a younger man. But no, it had#not been his custim to employ such tactics of ingratitude with employees of long standing. True, Ringling knew little enough about the staff of his organization. He was not a gregarious man, nor a particularly benign one when It came to interesting himself In the lives of others. But In a general way, the employees of the cooperage concern were treated on the principle that good service entitled a man to consideration and, except on rare occasions, displacements and new faces were seldom Introduced «Into the concern. Then, too, In the event of death or disaster of one sort or another Rlngllng almost invariably appeared at the funeral or bedside of the employee. In the case of Strandermann, who had broken two legs In a fall from a ladder in the shops, Ringling <fcad done the handsome thing and employed Strandermann's son in his father's place, even though the boy was Inexperienced and caused difficulties, And now Finkelstein, the next to oldest employee of the firm, was dead, and Ringling arriving at the funeral saw at least two-thirds of the cooperage organization standing about on the lawn as he drove up. Thereupon, surprises began tto happen. They were standing about on the little lawn, for the reason that the house of Finkelstein was. so crowded, on each of Its two floors, that It was Impossible for another human being to cram into Its doorways. Actually, before that modest house on that modest street, were officers of the law, trying to regulate the demonstration that was taking place at the funeral of Finkelstein. And that demonstration was prompted by nothing more than the hundreds of "men, women and children who were bombarding the house to pay last tribute to this man who had lived humbly but apparently with such superb grace. Men and women, unable to jam their way into the house, were standing on the lawn and sidewalks weeping and holding their children in arms, for the monlent when the bier of Finkelstein would appear at the threshold on* its way to the hearse at the curb. Riding up before this spectacle, Rlngllng was struck with amazement. Great was the embarrassment of ail concerned when it was found that the great Rlngllng, the millioniare employer of the humble Finkelstein, cuold not even force entrance into the home to pay respects to the last of Finkelstein. But without effect was the attempt of those In charge to find entrance for the employer of Finkelstein. Men, women and children crowded every doorway, youngsters with wilting bouquets In their hands, older folk exchanging low voiced reminiscences of the many kindnesses and acts of mercy of. which they had been recipient at the apparently sainted hands of this man who had passed on. A man of whom Rlngllng had never had the slightest conception I Why, Finkelstein had been Just any unobtrusive faithful employee, courteous, obsequious, anxious to please, coming and going In the routine way of the rising and the setting of the son. A man In no way to excite comment, Just an ordinary everyday little man In the street. And now this! Men and women from towns a night's train ride away, come to pay him the rites of their last expressions of respect and love. Finkelstein, It seemed, little old obscure Finkelstein, had been to these people and to hundreds more who sent messages and offerings of love, inspiration, solace and guidance. CM Una loved him for bis mercy «t their sick beds; mm had tola over bad, foal places by htas. woman had reason to Maes the ground upon which he walked, and sobbed at his passing. School children bearing fidd flowers sang "Lead Kindly Light" as his flower-draped coffin was born out into the sunlight The wife of Finkelstein, no more comely than he had been, twisted with years but walking proudly in her pain, followed him, the hundreds making way for her to pass. It was the most triumphant funeral Ringling had ever seen. It was a demonstration of love and gratitude each as he had never beheld It iqys only In his death that Rlngllng was to learn how great a man Finkelstein had been in his life. A woman on the edge of the crowd related how funds out of his modest salary had been his monthly offering to her during the two year period of an illness. Another recited his many errands of mercy for her sick husband. A man on crutches was unashamed to utte? aloud his blessings oh the memory of Finkelstein and children who were old enough to understand, cried. Such was the funeral of Finkelstein, and it awoke In Ringling a strange fear that for weeks thereafter made his face look gray and masklike. What about his own funeral? What about the funeral o? Ringling? Who would there be to mourn Ringling? How many children, carrying nosegays, would stand wet-eyed on the lawns of his country-estate at Koayllnd? What about the funeral of Ringling'? He knew. It would be the Icy, reserved funeral of a man who had lived In icy reserve. Men and women with cold, thin lips; business associates present for the looks of the thing; distant relatives; scenting legacies; curiosity mongers wanting to see the Inside of a great house, would line up around his great bronze bier. Ringling did not want that kind of a funeral. After beholding the fdneral of Finkelstein, Ringling was afraid to go out In the cold. Hs wanted to die like Finkelstein. Perhaps he may. The widow of Finkelstein is helping Ringling. There are youngsters who come daily now to the home of Ringling, puny ones who need the power of wealth to equip them with a strength for life; men and women .who have been brought to his attention by the widow of Finkelstein are full of gratitude for Ringllng's visits to their bedside and his alleviation o$ thejr poverty. The widow of Finkelstein has not long to live. You cah see It In her dimming eyes and frail heart-broken face, but Ringling, meanwhile, warming himself at the light of her spiritual radiance, Is losing no time in learning some of the truths he hopes to inherit from the Fnnkelstelns. Ringling is learning how to <&•, &otS» White's at Civic Opera Houae "Greatness" in Mankind Often Matter of Luck The average man recently drew a big headline in the morning papers across the country and refuses to stay average. A citizen of Fort Madison, Iowa, was chosen as the average man by his fellow townsmen some years ago and is still bored by interviewers and photographers even as the average man should be. The average man in an average town in an average state living on an average street and driving an average automobile has not changed the law of averages as far as happiness is concerned. .The goldfish in the pftrlor does not seem to be as happy as the average sucker down on the bottom of the pool. People still make tours 6r detours to Fort Madison to see the average man and make life miserable for him. But he says it does not help his business or increase his happiness. It fa a fair Inference that many celebrities acquire their renown by the same route. While an occasional unusual man with an unusual brain in unusual circumstances and with unusual energy Invents a great machine or locates a mighty idea and is revered for time to come, yet men of this type are not usually discovered until some time after they are dead. The average man strikes, a vein of gold, or an oil well, or city lot, and becomes a millionaire. He does not do it on purpose and has no more genius than millions of others. Greatness is often adventitious. The dirt on the summit of a mountain Is the same as that down in some orange grower's orchard, save that the rancher's dirt is bearing a better crop. The top of the mountain was Just on the peak of upheaval.--Los Angeles Times. Longevity of th« Seaes Practically every life insurance company charges women higher rates for annuities than they charge men. The rates charged are based on tables compiled from actual experience under annuity contracts, and every such experience has shown that the mortality of female annuitants Is lower than that of male annuitants. There have been many reasons advanced for the longer longevity of women. Among them are that women take better care of themselves, being able to stay at home or indoors when they.are 111. At the advanced ages they are probably not exposed as much to deaths from accidents. Analysis "What is marriage but s rest between two romances?" has been asked. If intended as a riddle, the answer Is: "If the married are properly mated it is a refuge in the storms of life and an anchorage for age." All depends on die " i t " ^ v ^ - y .

Morris. Russeil M. Evans, Jr., a fifteen*; year-old higli school student, was in* jured in a coasting accident X-ray examination showed that he had suf* feml a ruptured spleen, with an internal hemorrhage resulting. The? anesthetic relaxed the lad's muscles, allowing the blood to flow Into the abt' dominai cavity. Even the laity scarcely neeJs to be reminded that this was the most critical stage. With such a lar^e loss of blood in his weakened condition, the boy's life wavered in' the balance. Doctor Morris quickly transferred!, the blood from the abdominal cavity,: filtered it and placed it in a glass container surrounded by hot-water bottles to restore It to body temperature. Then, with the surgeon working at top speed, the youth's own blood was injected into his body through a vein in his left arm. Next the ruptured spleen was removed. When the boy left the operating table his pulse and blood pressure were declared normal, and at this writing, several days later, his general progress toward recovery is reported "most satisfactory." The operation is considered a distinct contribution to surgery. % / Died "Pauper"; HerWiR Bares $30,000 Bequest Los Angeles, Calif.--The will of Vila Kaufman, seventy, who died an apparent pauper in Memphis, Tenn., a month ago, was admitted to probate here.
