Choice and Consequences.

The sudden crisis precipitated by the
choice onered to the youthful king on
the threshold of life"-the choice so
often imagined in felton, and actually
presented in real life-"Ask what shall
! give thee" revealed the stuff that
made Solomon one of the worlds great
est characters. There was no struggle
OF heart as to what he should choose. for
the soul of the king was crying out to
be guided by the Lord.
When we read how Lincoln cried out
- thou God that heard Solomon in the
night. when he prayed for wisdom. hear
me. l cannot lead this people, / cannot
guide the affairs of this nation without
Thy help. i am poor and weak and sin
full o God. who didst hear Solomon
when he cried for wisdom hear me and

has heard the prayers of Washington.

the incident that happened upon his

In observing the various business

the members are content TO limit their

In organizations. whether morgan

often becomes a futile striving in per
sonal antagonism or misdirected zeal
under the dominance OF selfshness. In
order to avoid friction in any organiZ-

call OF the membership TO the colors.
This call should stir the men to a

motto is that the concentration of hui

but the uncertainty a. to importa-

still having its effect on business.
However. importers are telling their
customers. that goods will come by
way OF Holland and Italy. but many
buyers are not eager TO risk the IN
certain route OF transportation.
The French importers continue con-
hdent and their deliveries have been
fairly prompt and no doubt they will
be able to hold much OF their trade.
The same. In a general way. may be
said OF England Nevertheless there
is an ample room for improvement IN
the American situation and no doubt
much will be done toward restoring
prosperity to the potteries.
Financial Situation.
The important feature in the imam
cial situation Is the ease in the money
market and the activity in certain
lines OF our exports. These two in
fiuences are closely related. How
ever under the present conditions. our
importations Of merchandise Is re-
stricted. while our expectations are
large. II must be conceded that the
great volume of exports OF products
from the farms and factories, does
not represent what may be termed a
net gain In our foreign trade. For
the channels OF international CONNER
cial trade are blocked. and the i'm
port trade Is far below normal. but
the rush Of exports is building up a
trade balance in favor OF this country
which must be equalized eventually
by the importation OF gold.
