The Club has its headquarters in the Skokie School and all its members are Skokie boys.

"No men allowed ;" some- thing just like that. We're get- ing tired of it, and we're going to tell you why. We're going to stuff. ' Right away we want to say that we have no desire to sneak into any "style show." Make it as public as you want to. We wouldn't go in, if you begged us on bended knee or paid us to come in. We know who writes those things about corsetry and ready- to-wear garments. We've figured it all out. It's always some woman. It isn't a man, an hon- est-to-goodness he-man, unless he's trying to imitate his wife or some other lady. No sir, it's a woman. And we know why, too. Women may think they're pretty cute, but it takes a man to see right men will get curious. Then the women will have the upper hand again and feel happy. It's the old Bluebeard story turned around: Tell them they mustn't and they'll want to all the more. Say, ladies, the Loop is full of theatres that give shows that beat "real, live models" all hol- low. Keep your "style shows!" SCHOOL HEAD RETURNS We welcome the return of Mr. 'Washburne and his fellow trav- ellers. His letters in the Talk have edi- fied and entertained us. We have gone with him in his European tour. We are glad to have him with us again. Our schools will be the better for his studies abroad. The other morning, commuters who rode from the sunlight of the North Shore towns into the smoke-filled atmosphere of Chi- cago were given a bullet-proof argument for living in the su- burbs. The gentleman on the train who sits up next to the window and spreads out his paper so as to shut off all the light from his poor fellow-reader on the aisle, ought to be re-classified under livestock. The Public Forum | SAVE THE CASH VALUE! One of the big and most menacing problems of the present day that the life insurance companies and the field agents must cope with is the tendency to surrender paid-up policies for cash, at the end of the premium-paying per- iod or later. This tendency is particu- larly serious as it affects the best in- terest of the isured and his depend- ents. The temptation to withdraw cash values in appreciable amounts because of "attractive" investments, which at the time appear very favorable and secure, is - doubt- less the cause of many sur- renders. Some agents have gone so far as to recommend to old policy holders that they cash in their old policies, invest the proceeds and buy new insurance, using the interest re- turn on such investments toward pay- ing the premium on the new policy. heart of the principle of life insurance and it is time for a concerted move- ment to save such protection as a life insurance policy affords. "Twister's" Scheme This idea is worked in an effort to produce new business yielding a new commission to the agent. And, of course, it is the scheme that is follow- ed by the out and out "twister." This practice removes the protec- tion, often acquired by long years of struggle, from the secure and certain custody of the insurance company to luring to destruction; for the funds once removed are liable to be buffeted until an unfortunate through manipulation. If the insured is not satisfied to leave his money with the insurance company to give sure, conservative ment bond, it is not necessary that the funds be withdrawn in order to provide an attractive investment. The application of the cash value to the purchase of an annuity under one of the options provided in the policy is more. Payments may be made monthly, if desired, or the principal may be left intact for a specified num- ber of years, to be then paid as di- rected and agreed, yeilding on the present basis 4%%, of which 3% is absolutely guaranteed. This conserv- ing of the funds at a fair rate of in- terest should appeal strongly to all thinking persons, because of the ab- solute security of the principal. And cash value, will certainly earn the future, if not the immediate, grati- tude of his clients, and will have the a duty. well performed. J.
