COOPER RE|TERATES HIS
FAITH N FUTURE KEOKUK.
Gate city Reporter who was querying

him
About the Promised Factory.
Mr.. Cooper at one time before he
left Keokuk, said he wonid come back
some day and bring a big factory
with him His visit here, with two
eastern men revived that promise.
Consequently he was asked whether
or not he was bringing factory here.
Especially was this pertinent In
view of the fact that has leaked ont
that a conference was held last night
between Mr.. Cooper, the men with
him. the Stone Webster and Mis-
sissippi River Power company officials
officials It lasted for several hours
Mr. Cooper's answer to this question
was this:
Admits Working on Something.
Well, we are working along that
line but nothing definite can be done
until we have completed all the nee
essary preparations
Reading between lines. 1t Is easy to
gather that there IS something big
along Industrial lines being cooked up
for Keokuk Coupled with his state
ment as to the effect of the war on
the manufacturing interests OF the
United States, it is quite evident that
the man who harnessed the father OF
waters. Is optimistically looking to-
wards the future. Perhaps from his
strategic position he already sees
the streaks OF rosy light painting the
gray which blots out everything else
for others now. At any event his
optimism ought to be a good cure for
the blues. and the boosters should re-
new their faith.

Sixty-six new lockers were added to

ment and already more than half
have been taken Almost all the
lockers in the mems locker room have

evolved, scheme to keep track of
the attendance in his department.
On file in his office is every boys
locker key and when a boy enters
the building he secures his key from
the office not by giving the locker
number but by special code letter
and number, eliminating the chance
of any other boy getting his key by
giving the locker number. When the
hoy leaves he deposits the key in a
box and each evening Mr.. Reed emp
ties this box, replacing the keys in
their proper receptacle and checking
UP the boys present during the day.
He also keeps a record of every boys
expenditures for games, charge of
one cent for twenty minutes play on
the small table and three cents for
the larger boys play on the regula-
ton tables.
Boys who are unable to pay their
way in the association are given the
opportunity of working out their mem
bership by working as pin boys in
the bowling alleys, attendants in the
cloak room, etc, ten boys at present
being engaged in thus working out
their membership fee and some of
them are working out the cost of
their gymnasium suits. AS soon as
a boy starts to work he is given full

simplest of men.
In his youth he served in the Ger
man army and the habit of plain eat
ing has stuck to him. In summer he
is up at six O'Clock; in winter at sew
en-. lie lives amid luxurious sur
roundings, yet his diet is almost mo-
nastic. At breakfast he has cereal,
one egg and coffee; for luncheon, fish
or chop and a dessert; at night he
eats a roast or an entree, salad,
cheese and coffee. He limits himself
to two mild cigars a day, never drinks
cocktails and seldom tastes wine. For
exercise he rides horseback and
walks.
Il asked Mr. Kahn which was the
hardest phase OF the Wall street
grind. His answer was surprising.
It's not the swift work that wears
you out he said. Action is a tonic
that stimulases. 1t is having to sit

long-winded reports and minutes. In
short it's inactioG--not action-that
kills.

up to three O'Clock is the money
making time; after three o'clock is
the money-letting time
Money-letting refers to the COM
munal, art and civic interests that alb
sorb the late afternoons and surplus
of men of the Morgan, Schiff and
Kahn type. They have put great
public institutions on "a sound busi-
ness basis and brought about a com
mercialization of philanthropy
