Maker lis agitated, but Wall Street is
a world by itself It kicks money
around as though 1t was a football.
In the main, it is a great game of
speculation.
"At times" continued Mr.. Wanna
maker, "the country is filed with
wonder at the power of few to tie
up money and to project 1t into great
corporation movements that for the
time being make banks and trust
companies their partners and indi-
rectly effect the mercantile business
But the country at large is not affected
by the spasm OF Wall Street. The
country can be counted on to con-
tinue In good financial health.

his life at the association rooms next
Friday night.
