Going into Business for Yourself
By ALBERT W. ATWOOD

There are only few large manufacturers
with ample capital and surplus, intelli-
gent buying and sales departments, and
a more or less systematized form Of man
agement. Then, there is much larger
number of medium-sized manufacturers,
built up by individual business men of
ability, and run by them. They are often
quite profitable, but their continuance
after the death or retirement of the
founders is doubtful.
Finally, there is still larger number of
very small shoe factories scattered all
over the East and operated by men who
have recently left the ranks of workmen.
Little or no capital is employed, and the
concerns are run by men with little if
any business experience. In times of
financial or business depression, or of
sudden changes in the leather market,
the proprietor of one of these small con-
Germs is likely to be altogether eliminated.
At present the shoe industry is exceed
ingly active. 1t is operating at per-
haps 125 per cent. of normal. Most
factories can sell more shoes than
they are able to produce, and prices are
going up.
The pendulum has had an extraordinary
swing in scarcely more than a year. The
shoe business not long ago passed through
a very serious period of depression mote
that the small firm referred to "nearly
went to the wall twice.. AT the begin
ming of the war the shoe business fell off
from 80 to 40 per cent. Thus we are
dealing with an industry that fluctuates
to a considerable extent, and leading

But Eadbrook, with all his convention
atty and seriousness, which rendered him
bit ridiculous at times, had been trained
in another school than that. His sense of
honor and of justice revolted against the
snare that had been laid for him.

HE waited for the outburst of passion

leaned back quietly, and his square mouth
compressed into almost smile.

going to be the Judge of what is fair? I
haven't offered Louise as bride. Louise
will do as she thinks best. l wouldn't

the placid rejoinder. "Never let yourself
get excited, Walter. 1t don't pay. Let's
talk about something else. We thought
you might stay to dinner with us.
Eadbrook hesitated before he accepted
the invitation. His impulse was to flee
the spot. He knew that Louise would be
at the table; that her youth and charm
and her pure affection were going to be
used-without her knowledge against
his very manhood. And yet, the hope
came to him that he could somehow meet
the situation.
Thank you" he said; an stay, if you
wish me to"
Promptly at twelve Aunt Lyddy came
into the room and announced that dinner
was ready. She gave Eadbrook queer,

II do, replied Eadbrook, with the firm

"Good!' was the verdict. aye spoke

He leaned toward the younger man.
Listen" he said. "Ye seem to have
some sense. I'm getting to be an old
man. I've got lot of fight left in me
yet," he added, shaking his long arm;
"but I'm getting old, and can't deny it.

What do you say to that?"
Eadbrook made no reply. Ezra tapped
his lean fingers on the young mans knee.
"They think, he exclaimed, "that they
can come into Boxton and do as they
please! Joel Tibb's been looking for a
chance to hurt me these last ten years.
Treadway hates me, too; but he's never
had the courage to come out in the open.
They've got hold of this man Starr, and
they think they're going to turn things
upside down, and spend the taxpayers
money for folderols, and 60 sky-hooting
around in automobiles, and drive decent,
quiet folks out Of their senses. But they
won't do it," Ezra's voice suddenly be-
trayed all the anger that was boiling with
in him. "They won't do it! Wen see who's
got the power here! YOU'VE got too much
sense to let that crowd drag you down with
them. You stand with me, Walter. Louise,
she'll stand with us, and we'll beat them
out of their boots. You've got everything
to lose by letting that crowd run ye."
THE mask was off! Eadbrook saw the
point with desperate clarity. This was
what the old man had called him for! He
was going to strike at Starr and Tibb and
Treadway through one Of their own men.
1t was not, then, because Ezra Nudge
loved Eadbrook more, but because he
loved the other men less, that Louise was
being held out as reward for desertion.
For just fleeting moment Eadbrook
felt himself wavering. He knew that the
old man would be as good as his word

authorities fear that in the near future
the demand for shoes will slacken.
This much is certain: If hard times
come, the brunt of the loss will be borne
by the host of small makers who lack
capital, surplus, general business expert
ence, organization, and familiarity with
the market.
Study and Save
A FIVE dozen shoe factory is much
like rowboat on the ocean. 1t may
60 all the way across to England, but
chances are poor. Instead Of making this
all-or-none plunge, l suggest that the
edgemaker, after placing several hundred
dollars in the strongest savings bank in
his town, invest the remainder in a con-
sentative first mortgage, or high-grade
bond, or possibly shares of local savings
and loan association or cooperative soci-

Then let him add to his education by
taking night course in business sub

harm to consult his superiors as to what
subjects to study, and they might be
able to recommend educational oppor-
tunities he has never heard Of. II he
persists along this line, and also continues
to save, the two facts taken together
would in time recommend him for pro-
motion in any decent industry. And
promotion will bring the business expert

The girl came from the kitchen at that
moment, carrying steaming dish in each
hand. Never had she seemed quite so
adorable to Eadbrook. She wore the
simplest of dresses, with clean starched
apron, and the little pink flushes in her
cheeks from the heat of the cooking gave
her touch of busted housewifery that
was calculated to appeal to the sober,
practical mind of their guest. He MUIR

people together. AS he and Louise went

scarcely repress his resentment. Only the

They sat down opposite each other and
regarded each other intently for half a
minute without word. Then she asked,
with a twinkle in her eyes: 4Been using

Now brother the tongue be-

successfully denied.
And we can readily say in the i
sence of the scripture when the
tongue was destroyed the head
was bruised. The next thing
for US to d. is, to prove what the
head of the Egyptian sea was
ana is. So we ask you to read
again:

and prophesy against him, and
against all Egypt:

you have before you the head of
the Egyptian sea in Pharoah,
