BUSINESS IS KING.

Fifty years ago in Harvard or Yale

diplomat" fellow students would say to
him, IF you are going into business?
Why, farmer might as well go to col
lege as a business man."
tremendous change and evolution
have taken place in this country, espe-
cially during the last quarter of a CEN
tury. Today business is king. Nothing
else is more evident. 1t is the first i'm
preston that strikes the foreign Wis

In fact, he hears very little of anything

ment of vast schemes, which make the
foreigner stand aghast. Other coun-
tries know very little about doing
them here. Everywhere business is
making such strides that unfortunately
nearly everything else, is being covered
up. We read comparatively little In
the newspapers today about the pro-
fessions and the fine arts and the more
esthetic vocations. Business Is king.

business careers when they compare the
slow methods, the years of pinching
economy. by which their fathers man
aged to lay up mere competence and
the tremendous Ieizes offered in the
commercial world of today?
Why should we not look at business
as dignified? 1t has been the greatest

not be long before there is practically
but one country, for we shall converse

now with people in our different States.
Business is not only king, but it is also

chandise is attested by an increase in
railway earnings thus far reported for
