must make up your mind to give up some
things now for the sake of enjoying them
at later time. In this we can learn u
lot from the immigrants who come to our
shores Mr.. Horowitz, above mentioned,
came here from Russia as a youth. Six
years ago Russian girl, Ida Alper. then
16 years old, came here, unable to speak
word of English. She got work in a
Massachusetts shoe factory The pay
was small, but she attended TO business
fitted herself to earn more, and saved
Last month her father, her mother, her
brothers and her sisters came over, all on
money that Ida had sent them.
Have you noticed that, in the case Of
both old settlers and new comers those
who are able to take advantage of the
opportunities that arise are those who
have some ready money? Such oppor-
tunities come to you. Are you ready for
them? If you are not ready now, get
ready! You can do so by adopting a reg

Thousands of other men and women have
successfully trod this path of industry
and thrift. You can do likewise. A saw

providing you with place of perfect So
curity for your savings and by paying

JUNGLE ANIMALS
HARD TO CAPTURE
Requires Vast Amount of
Trouble, Danger and
Expense

Few who see wild animals in cages real
ize the vast amount of trouble. danger
and expense necessary to get them there.
The greatest danger lies in capturing the
wild animals in their native country. With
the Hagenbeck- Wallace circus, which
comes here Sunday and Monday, giving
two performances on the latter day, there
are several hundred wild animals, most
of which were captured in the forest and
jungles of their native country.
There is no more ticklish or dangerous
task than tracking lions in the vast Nu-
bian forests. The heat and sun form an
obstacle that few men can stand, while
the effect on the eyes is binding. The
wariest and most careful hunter may be
tracked by another animal while he .is
tracking his quarry, and be brought to
earth at any moment.
For capturing full grown lions traps of
many kinds are used. One is a square,
another has sides that lift like the or
binary mouse trap. This Is baited with
a piece of fresh meat, and the lord of
the forest starts for his meal the sides
are sprung by watchers concealed in the
branches of trees. More than score
of lions with the Wallace cir
Gus were captured in this manner.
Elephants are generally caught in
nooses. A number of men surround the
elephant after they have previously
formed a circle of fire around the beast.
The fire gets closer and closer, the ele-
phant becomes panicstricken and finally
a moose is thrown around his head. He
is then securely tied to a tree and al
lowed to remain there until he regains his
composure. Tanned elephants are then
brought into use and used as a sort of
persuasive power in making the captive
tractable.
In catching the huge pythons and large
snakes various contrivances are employed.
Some hunters set the grass on fire in a
circle around where the snakes are known
to have hiding places. As they try to es-
cape they are held in large nets mounted
on wooden hoops to which is attached a
large bag. Mr.. Wallace has the largest
snakes ever exhibited, the personal gifts
of Carl Hagenbeck the German animal
king All the animals are fed after NATL
nee and the Sunday feeding is among
one of the sights at the grounds on the

who have established central bank, if
it is politically unwise in this country, and
it is believed to be, Congress will not
adopt it-and If they should it is believed
that the President would prefer to have

FOR it.
In presenting a proposal for a central
bank to be owned by the people and gov
erned by officers appointed by the Pres
ldent, Frank A. Vanderlip, president of
the National City bank of New York, was
simply putting into concrete form an idea
that has taken possession of several MEM

ator Reid of Missouri, and Senator Hitch

Isn't There When Needed
What is the matter with our currency?
Why all this talk of reform and establish
ing central bank? The main trouble
with our system is that the currency isn't
there when needed.

for 100000 at his bank, and yet II ne
asked for real money he would have been
refused. Money could not be had, and
John 7. Morgan gained great notoriety
and credit in financial circles for coming

ernment to do just what a private indl-
vidual had to do in 1907.
In 1907, the average depositor who had
been transacting business by checks and
drafts placing these with the bank to
create a credit balance and the drawing
his own checks against them, suddenly
demanded real money and there was not
enough to go round. Everybody became
suspicious of everybody else and currency
went to a premium.
Increase Power by Rediscounting
In ordinary times the smaller banks out
side of the reserve and central reserve
cities can increase their loaning power by
rediscounting. That Is, they take the
commercial paper and securities on which
they have made loans and hypothecate
these, in turn, with another bank.
AT present that is not considered good
banking by the larger institutions. They
refuse to do it, and their loans are re-
strcted. The big bankers of the country
say the rediscount privilege opened TO
them in the administration bill is worth
everything else in that measure
That is one of the arguments against
the bill-the rediscount privilege. 1t is
declared that unless held in check by a
graduated tax, it will lead to evils as seri-
GUS as too great contraction OF the GU
rency. Over-expansion leads to over
speculation flooding the country with de-
based currency, which circulating on a
partly with gold. will drive out the pre-
cious metal. Then when the time comes
that redemption is demanded, there will
be no gold for that purpose.
The fiat money petople have overlooked
this point, it is declared In times If
war when the resources of the nation
might be strained, the larger the vol
ume of outstanding currency issued on its
credit and good faith the greater would
be the danger in such eventuality. We are
asked to recall the dark days of the Con-
federacy, when $1O0 in Confederate green
backs wouldn't buy pleasant look.
Vanderlip's Warming
Vanderlip warned the committee that
IF you issue unsecured currency for one
purpose today, you will be called on 20
morrow to issue an increased volume for
disimilar purposes. History is full of
the examples of disaster this has brought
in its train"
This country is on a gold standard.
That fact is established beyond peradven-
ture The amount of gold that should be
held as security for Outstanding notes in
circulation is a matter of judgment. At
present the gold and silver certificates
are secured dollar for dollar. They are
nothing more than warehouse receipts
The point is how far may that rule be
broken in perfect safety?
The administration believes that the
Glass-Owen bill provides that safety
valve in the tax on circulation issued in
times of great demand, and for tempor-
airy purpose.
But the cooks cannot agree and the re-
suit is that the currency measure remains
as much a mystery today as it was when
first begun. We may have currency leg
islation and we may not.
