To return to our subject-why
should the best financial minds in
or. country believe financial condi-
tions.t never sounder than they are
today?
First: Because in these United
States there are one billion, five hun
dred million dollars of gold, sup
ply roughly two and a half times
greater than that of any other coun-
try; an amount more than sufficient
to transact the business of this coun-
try; when treated scientifically as a
reserve against currency issues it is
sufficient to carry burden of cur
rency fifty times greater than we
now have, without endangering our
maintenance of gold standard.
Take for example the panic of 1907,
when England had but four hundred
millions of gold; and yet so perfect
was England's financial system that
it parted with one-half of this supply
to this country without shaking the
financial fabric of Great Britain. Our
supply of gold today is nearly four
times larger than that of Great Brit
ain in 1907, and should with ease
carry all the burdens of commerce
that may be put upon it.
Second: The strength of our f.
nancial system today is shown by
the ease with which we parted with
one hundred millions of gold in the
first five months of this year and
forty-eight millions more during the
month of July, without disturbing
one iota our finances. At no prev
ious date in the history of our coun-
try have we exported like amount
of gold in so short time: to have
done so in years gone by would have
rocked every financial institution in
the country to it's foundations and
probably brought ruin to many. To-
day not one has been disturbed by
such heavy expectation of the
precious metal; nay more, financial
leaders say so good and sound is
our condition that another one hun
dred millions could have gone
abroad without perceptibly affect
ing conditions.
Third: Because the New York
Stock Exchange, against which so
many of our people exclaim, was
kept open for days after every or
ganized stock exchange in the world
had closed; yet by so doing was able
to absorb, without panic or disaster,
the immense food of securities
poured upon us by the panic strick-
en- peoples of Europe. Such stability
of our financial institutions, for in
the end the burden was cast upon
them, makes it but question of a
few years before New York becomes
the recognized financial center of the
world.
Fourth: Because today we have
established in this country, and soon
to be in full operation, scientific
financial system that is capable of
withstanding any strain or stress
that may be brought upon it.
These are the reasons why our
practical financiers believe our f.
nancial conditions never sounder
than they are today.
Let me repeat them, for they are
worth remembering:

million of gold ON hand in these

Wheat Rolling In.

Wheat hauling is beginning in
earnest and strings of big teams are
passing through Heppner daily for
the warehouses at the depot. AS
threshing is now generally in pro-

too, that the prospect of 81 wheat

ADVANCED METHODS
OF MUSIC INSTRUCTIONS

Advancement in teaching methods
within the past few years has been
quite wonderful This is particularly
true OF the training of the young mind
in music. The up-to-d date primary mu-
sic teacher believes in keeping the
charm and beauty of music foremost In
the childs mind and doing away with
the idea of drudgery.
The primary training department of
the Arizona School of Music offers the
opportunities pronounced by the lead
ing musicians and educators as the
only rational way" for a child to be-
gin the study of music.
Children at first are started in with
four class lessons a week, then three.
then two. AS the child develops the
class work is dropped and it becomes q
private pupil. For unhappiness of SOL
tary practice it substitutes the gaiety
and competition of class companions.
1t develops the ear and musical instinct
from small beginnings, when ordinary
methods would be unavailing The
materials used and the method of pre-
senting the work appeals to children
through their sense of pleasure and
beauty, and so the unaffected love of
music enters normally, naturally and
spontaneously in, until it permeates
their whole being Mrs. Luther Stew
ard with two assistants has charge of
this department. Mrs. Steward has for
years made specially of this work,
she has Mus, B, degree from Roches-

1T was my own experience that
first led me to advocate Grape Nuts
food and | also know, from having
prescribed it to convalescents anu
other weak patients, that the food Is
a wonderful rcbuider and restorer of
nerve and brain tissue, as well as
muscle. 1t improves the digestion
and sick patients gain very rapidly,
just as | did in strength and weight,

had to give up my work entirely, ana

became plain that | must change
Then | began to use Grape-NutS food
and in two weeks l could walk q
mile without fatigue, and in five
weeks returned to my home and

BIG CHANGE IN
AUTO CIRCLES
O'Neil Company Takes
Place of Former Overland
Garage-Tom Trent to
Remain Manager-Good-
year Distributing Point.

Although the change was actually
made some time ago, it was only an
nounced yesterday that the Overland
Auto Co, of Phoenix, would hereafter
be known as the O'Neill Auto and
Supply Co., the agency for Overland
past two seasons having been relin-
quished. Thomas B. Trent is retain
ed as manager, and the company
will remain in its present quarters
at 326-32S-330 North Central avenue,
where it has one of the largest and
best equipped garages, machine shops
and accessory stores in Arizona.
The O'Neill Auto company has Sc
cured the agency for what is be-
lieved will prove to be a remarkably
popular car here, and will have it's
first shipment in before the first of
october. 1t is understood that this
car is quite a departure from other
cars Of its class. and that it possess
es many desirable and exclusive
features.
Manager Trent made another inter-
eSllHS announcement, 10 the effect
that the Goodyear tire people, who
have been figuring on establishing a
branch here, on account of their
rapidly growing trade here, have de :
cided instead to make the new ONeilI
Auto and Supply Co. their wholesale
distributors here. The first ship
ment, consisting of over 10000
worth of castings, tubes and truck
tires, all new stock, is now enroute
to Phoenix and is expected this week
This will comprise the largest stock
of Goodyears ever handled here and
as the O'Neill company will sell both
at retail and wholesale and is in
position to make other dealers their
regular prices this will be no small
part of their business.
The garage has also been made the
local garage of the newly organized
"Transcontinental Garage Service,
Inc" the publishers of 'Transcontin-
entail Log Book" and the o.'iginators
of Motor Money" A wealthy cor
pOratiOn is behind this system, which
will mean much to all overland tour
lists as well as the official garages.
