They can as rule thrive only upon

when we shall have done away with

TRADE BONDS KNIT

and formidable competition Automo-
biles are built by scores of thousands
in America, and missionaries and
clerks in commercial houses IN the
seaports of China find the cost of liv-
ing increased. Many motor cars mean
much consumption of rubber for tires.
That causes high prices and the boom
in crude rubber leads to the planting
of millions of rubber trees in the Ma
lay peninsula and on nearby islands,
with many thousands of Chinese
brought from their own country to
work the plantations. Hence higher
wages for Chinese servants of for
eigners, in Chinese cities.
Also, the automobile boom in the
United States. with it's great demand
for rubber, benefits the mills that
make cotton string in Great Britain.
Rubber bands cost more, and frugal
shopkeepers in the United Kingdom
use string more and rubber less, in
tying up packages.
There are endless trade connections
of this kind. The world is more and

Rev. Frank Crane Takes Issue With
These Who See Evil in Its
Great Growth.

Says the Rev Frank Crane in the
Chicago Evening Post:
1T is the fashion to curse our day
because it is given up to money-mak-
ing. Cold, hard commercialism is said
to be destroying the good old customs
and graces. AS matter of fact, the
business of money-making is the most
civilizing occupation the race ever
took up. Commercialism has ended
slavery. abated war, limited and abol
ished thrones and tyranny, ousted SUI
perstition and developed the individ-
ual virtues of self-control, economy
and sobriety. Compare it with feu-
dalism, il is less picturesque, but more
merciful; with aristocracy, it has less
display, but more justice; with reli-
gious rule, it has less emotion, but
more liberty. Trusts may be as greedy
and goddess as any form of special

COUNTRIES AND CONTINENTS
UNITED THROUGH THE TIES
OF COMMERCE.
STRONG FORCES IN BUSINESS
Partial Failure of Crops in One Part
OF the World Immediately Felt in
Some Other-AutomobiIe Boom Is
Far-Reachlng In Effect.

For the uses of travellers. the rela-
tons of governments and the study of
scholars, the world is indeed growing
smaller, but in no relation or province
of life does that familiar saying fit
the facts more closely and surely than
1t does in business.
The plain and large bonds which
knit countries and continents together
for commerce are too apparent to need
mention. 1t is impossible not to see
the multiplication of steamship lines,
the expansion of international traffic
by land and water. But there are IN
counted ties, less obvious and less
understood, that play their part in
promoting the unity of the world.
Some of these forces in business are
curiously indirect and complicated
They are similar, in that respect, to
conditions which affect domestic trade
or to those factors in productive In.
dustry which are noted only by pa.
tient and thorough students.
In international trade equally indi
rect and hidden forces often have i'm
portant effects. The "teddy-bear'
craze dies out in the United States
and German toy-makers in the Hartz
mountains suffer for lack Of work
There is a partial failure of the wheat
crop in the northwestern part of the
wheat belt of America, and times
change for the worse for Indians fal

Smaller grain harvests, less money
for automobiles; less demand for mo
tor cars, fewer tires; fewer tires
lighter pressure upon the rubber mar
ket and lower prices for crude rub
Der; cheaper rubber, less work ant
less pay for Indians in the forests Of
Brazil and Peru. That is the sequence
of changes.

The DabbIer.

Busiest of all the near failure types
is the dabbIer.
Ever pursuing the will of the wisp
side issue, he rushes here, there, all
the while trampling headed grain in
the field of specialization which needs
only his keen mind to cut and firm
hand to bind.
But he has the saving grace of
hopefulness. His excuses are not the
plants of the prosecuted nor does he
shoulder his shortcomings on fate.
He is always optimistic for the next
venture
Time will come, however, when his
brain and body will no longer serve as
a clearing house for the thousand and
one ideas. Nor will those whose ac-
counts have been handled there re-
member the medium, for each ones
share is small
Save finger print smears Cd the
light of achievements he leaves no
mark. For he has versatility but not
