You may not follow trade for hvlnB,
but time invested in learning a trade,
and learning it thoroughly, is the laying

which made great promises ut the start,

With n good trade, under such circnm-

have an cxhalstless reserve fund to draw
from. Not only lcarn the theory OF

A FEW facts about the professional
tours Of theatrical people are interesting.
In this country there are now 227 theatri-
cal companies on professional tours, en-
bracing, say, A, So members. The fol,
lowing figures will show the expenses Of
these travelling companies Transporta-
tion, 1921 900; hotel bills. s2,S 1900;
hauling baggage, etc $500 900; salaries
and incidentals, IS, 100000; total out
lay, Sl2 9Sl COO these companies play
on shares, receiving about G5 per cent of
the nightly gross receipt. Some of the
leading attractions make as much as
800, ,OO9 ayear clear profit. In order to
lessen tn hardships of these professio al
tour sts it is proposed to build special
cars for the companies in which they can
live and travel. 1t is bel eyed that such
car could be run for $l7j week. Un-
der this system probably Sl,200,0O1 in
hotel bills could be saved.
