RISE OF THE AUTOMOBILE.

Do people fully realize the growth of
the automobile industry?
1t is said that the number of profess
sional chauffeurs in the United States
is upward of one hundred thousand,
more than thirty thousand being regis
tered in the single state of New York
Charles NJ Harvey, writing for Lesl-
lies, recalls that at the beginning of
1910 the number of automobiles in the
United States for pleasure and for
professional and commercial purposes
was placed at about 100000, and
says that fully two houndred thousand
we're added to this total during the
year. In the manufacture of these ma
chimes $500, 900, 900 of capital is invest
ed. Counting in the accessory indus
tries, 100000, 900 is invested in this
field. over three hundred thousand
persons are employed in the manufac-
ture Of automobiles and their access
cries and in the salesrooms and gar
ages.
Mr.. Harvey states that more auto
mobiles Of the various types used for
pleasure and for work are owned in the
United States than in all the rest of
the world. The next development of
the automobile may be in the direction
of a reliable machine which may be
sold at a cost that will bring it with
in the reach Of everybody who is oblg-
ed to ride. However there are very
good machines in the market now, and
at very reasonable prices, considering
the cost Of manufacture, and from the
standpoint of"reai economy cheapness
will always be a consideration second
airy to reliability in selecting an auto
mobile. NJ

ADVERTISING IN JANUARY.

Advertising in January is as econ
omical as the proverbial stitch in time
A very moderate cut in values or en-
phass on attractive leaders, will bring
the buyers to your store. They will
purchase with freedom, feeling that
winter styles and fabrics are good for
a couple of months or more.
If you delay your special sales you
meet the objection that it is then too
near time for spring goods. Conse-
quently the merchant must pay heav-
lily at that time to clear his shelves
Of old stock. The public will demand
lower prices as compensation for the
probability of style changes, and for
taking goods off your hands at an UNI
seasonable time.
A dollar spent in advertising now
saves several dollars i'm deep price cuts
later.
The average housewife understands
this situation. Hence she searches the
newspaper advertising very carefully
just now BY so doing she is continu-
ally asking the merchant what he has
to offer her today. A failure to adver-
tise adequately is to remain silent
when your customers are putting these
questions, ready to look and listen if
you have interesting offers to make.

INTERVENTION IN CHINA.


Z The powers can scarcely escape in
PREVENTION in China in the interest of
humanity. This is the conclusion to
be reached by any one who has noticed
the trend of events. 1t may be with
extreme reluctance that responsible
and thoughtful statesmen Of all ma
tions reach that decision. To estab-
lish new government in China will
be stupendous task-even more for
midable if undertaken by a foreigner
than if managed by the Chinese them
selves. And the difficulties Of secur-
ing agreement among the world pow
ers offer most troublesome problem.
Seemingly the only alternative to
answering these questions is to con-
voy all foreigners safely out Of China
and then relinquish the country to
its reign Of famine brigandage, an
archy and terror-a condition of saw
agery unparalleled in centuries, Of
which the French commune was mere
Iy hint.

THE AGE LIMIT.

Chicago has instituted a movement
70 combat the tendency of employers
In that city to hire only young men.
An association has been organized
which calls itself the Anti 49, Years
Age Limit league.
This league has been forced into
great prominence because of an adver-
tisement appearing in Chicago paper
which stated that worthy man Of
IS was absolutely unable to get en-
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Of his age-and as
result the best woman in the world
was actually starving to death.
This incident attracted general at
tention to the very situation which the
league attempts to regulate and has
been productive of good results. A
campaign has been instituted to show
employers that in many positions men
Wen past middle age are far more
competent than boys and very young
men. Efforts on behalf of reputable
men out of employment have gained
positions for scores of men no longer
regarded as young.
In every city there are scores of po-
sitions which might be filed far more
effectively with elederly men. Care
less Office boys and elevator boys are
frequently Indifferent about their work
and impudent in their bearing. These
might often be replaced by worthy
rnen--who through misfortune have
not been able to attain their years and
experience with merit.
The tendency of employers to avoid
every applicant for a position who
happens to have gray hairs is unwar-
ranted. Many men who are worthy Of
success In life have missed the goal
through no fault Of their own. FREE
qsiently such men viii fill a minor po-
sition with far greater success than an
untrained youth who has had no
worldly experience and has no knowl-
edge Of how to meet the public.

MONDAY. DEG. II, 1911.
ORDERS FOR BRUCE.

The most despicable effort-and GER
tainly the coarsest-ever made to in
nuence the judiciary of the state ap-
peared in the columns OF an insurgent
weekly--whose editor is kept on the
payroll in one of the state offices.
This fellow-who secured and retains
his position through his vlllification Of
men of position and prominence-en-
deavors to tell Justice Bruce. what is
expected Of him.
Reference is made to the numerous
important decisions to be before the
highest court. Mention Of the case Of
General Poole occupies a prominent
place.
Further on the writer serves notice
on the Judge that he is expected TO
decide things along progressive lines.
Apparently the legal status of the mat
ter is to be minor consideration.
1t is doubtful whether Justice Bruce
will take his orders from such source.
In fact it is popularity supposed the
new member Of the supreme bench has
rather pronounced ideas of his own as
10 the dignity of his position.
The Forum has little personal
knowledge Of the new justice. 1t as
sumes from the position he filed so
successfully as the head of the state
law school that he is man Of wide
legal learning.
From the class of some of his would
be bosses and critics-The Forum is
inclined to admire the new member of
the court. II he is Objectionable TO
such fellows as Cole and Andrews-he
must be a well qualified man.
The Forum hopes for the sake of de-
cency and because Of the respect that
is due to man OF his position-that
the new justice will not be further EN-
barrassed by such imbecillic and crude
work.
Fair minded people of the state viii
be inclined to await the results of the
decisions of Justice Bruce-before
criticizing him. Sane people are un-
likely to attempt to influence his de-
cisions by petty reference to political
causes.
The Forum believes Justice Bruce
IL entitled to a square deal-and fair
play.

CIVILIZATIONS DISGRACE.


1t appears that those citizens of the
United States-who have nnurderous
instincts, and who prefer to take no
chances-should confine themselves to
the diversion of burning negroes.
There is no need to refer to the
latest crime OF the kind referred to
which has been reported from Tennes-
see. The poor. overpowered creatures
two men and woman. who were
burned-were going to gin with a
load of cotton which represented the
best and noblest toll of which they
were capable.
1t appears that the people who in
habit a certain section of Tennessee
were too good to live within sight or
knowledge of any negroes. So they
tied them to their load of cotton and
burned them.
The courts of the United States do
not punish men for burning negroes.
Does one recall a single instance
where any court has done so? There
is no crime so foul as the assassination
of people who are unable to make any
resistance. Yet one phase of this
crime appears to be the only offense
in the criminal calendar which lead
ing citizens can commit with impun-
ity.
Still Americans talk glibly about
Turkish and Italian atrocities.
