Tapping The Credit
Reservoir.

The foundations of the
whole financial structure rest
on the shoulders of the people.
Banks may centralize, and to
a certain extent control credit;
huge syndicates may be form
ed to underwrite huge bond
issues; international loans
may be made, reaching into
the hundreds of millions of
dollars, yet, after all, the true
source of credit is the people,
and the money furnished is
the peoples money.
Our tremendous industrial
expansion Of the last forty
years is due, more than any
one thing, to the fact that
ways were found of tapping
the credit reservoir of wealth,
owned in the aggregate by the
people, of concentrating the
funds of a thousand or a mil
lion loaners, and Of bringing
the people into active partici-
patton in great financial oper-
ations. National Magazine,

l0KED IN FACE OF DEATH
Elroy, Were Light-Hearted

Charles Brown, the English come

Titanic tragedy. He knew most of the
officers on the ill-fated ship, and the
purser, McElroy, had been his com

England brought to the actor the last
words Of McElroy-an Az revoir OF

Congressman Learn Tricks
of the Trade.

1t is doubtful whether there
have been any material results
in the investigation of the lob
bies, and lobbyists, that will
have any particular bearing on
legislation, but the Congress-
men are being enlightened as
to the methods of the smooth
gentlemen who ply their
trades of influencing legisla-
ton among them. David

broker, has quietly related how
he impersonated different Con
gressmen and Senators, call
ing up different statesmen on

appears has had a perfect

ing their weak points, and
using his information to force
legislation. The "lnsidious
lobby that relates to sugar
and wool, has dropped into
the rear so far as exciting
popular interest, since it has
been demonstrated that men
lika Lamar and Mulhall have
SO long successfully worked
both ends against the middle

Good Roads Financing.

Former Senator Jonathan
Bourne, Jr., Chairman of the
Joint Committee on Federal
aid in the construction of
postroads, has advanced 9 a
new plan for the raising Of
road construction funds. He
would raise funds by sale of
Federal 3 per cent bonds and
the loaning of this money to
the Srates on the security of
their 4 per cent bonds, the
difference in interest consti-
tuting a sinking fund which,
with compound interest there
on at 3 per cent, would
amount the face of the bonds
in a little less than fifty years.

The Present Regime.

There is to-day in Washing
ton, with President Wilson in
the White House and the
Democratic party in control OF
both the Senate and the
House, such condition as
reformers for many years
have dreamed of and fought
for. The progressive element
is completely anb securely in
the saddle, The Democrats
may make mistakes of Judg-
ment; they may take action
along the lines Of principles
which are fundamentally i'll
adapted to progress. When
they come to dealing with the
regulation of business they
probably will make this sort
of mistake, for they will be
pioneering in new field. Also,
here and there in the Demo
cratic regime are spots of de-
cidedly low efficiency. But
there is nothing in Washing
ton which corresponds with
the situation when Uncle oe
was in power and Jim Watson
was his right hand. The
cleaning out that reformers
have dreamed of is complete.

fully. Here's where I get sale.
She's widow, and she won't have to

So she rang the bell hopefully and
was received by the Widow, who lis

HOPE TO RAISE LARGE SUM
Millions OF Red Cross Christmas Seals
to Be Sold for Anti-Tubercu-
losis Work.

Few people have any tuea of the
magnitude of the Red Cross Christmas
seal campaign. This year over 1O0,-
600 900 seals have been printed and
distributed. If placed end.to- end
these seals would extend nearly 2.400
miles, or practically from New York
to Salt Lake City. They have been
sent to over $4,000 different agents
and will be sold and handled by an
army OF not less than 100000 volun-
teers. including men, women and chill
dren. Millions of advertising circu.
lars have been scattered throughout
the country, and so thoroughly has
the advertising campaign been or.
ganized that it is doubtful If many
people in the more populous states
OF the country will not have heard of
the Red Cross seal and its mission in
the prevention of tuberculosis. 1t is
hoped that at least 50,000,000 seals
may be sold this year The principle
upon which the sale of seals is based
is that every cent except what little
is needed to cover the actual cost of
printing and handling shall be spent
for tuberculosis work in the commu-

Household and Mental Order.

Froebel, father of child,study," said
that inward clearness proceeds from
outward order and there is truth
enough in the observation to give food
for thought in the careless, untidy
mother and father. Froebel's saying
was connected, no doubt with his in
sistence that the child's play and work
materials in the kindergarten should
be taken out in perfect order and sc
returned at the close of the exercises
and DR.. Montessori, the Italian educa
ZIONIST, whose method is working q
change in the teaching of children, re
quires the same thing in her Houses
of Childhood" There must indeed be
a potent influence in an orderly pune
tual, isely-administcred household
and there is no question that children
brought up in such an atmosphere dc
show clearness in their mental pro
cesses. Fortunately, this is an inilu
ence which is independent of riches oi
poverty and so can be exerted by any
mother.
