four per cent bonds which matured
July /, 1907. OF which there are stiIl
outstanding $4,000 when the day
OF maturity approached in 1907 there
were ss6,000,000 Of these bonds out
standing. The government refunded
$50, 100000 OF them into Is and the
remaining s36,OO0,0OO were called

There Is a total OF over 5000 900

items Of debt which matured at va.

II is an interesting question where
some OF these old bonds are lying.
Some have no doubt been destroyed
or burned In fires. Some are stored
away In forgotten corners, perhaps
among the effects Of owners long
since dead. Occasionally one OF these
old relics OF Indebtedness comes TO
light. Only recently there was

Tomorrow there opens In Pitts
burgh a novel and important bust
ness institution. II is important be-
cause II definitely unites, and on a
large scale. the science of psychol-
ogy and commercial enterprise.
This institution Is bureau of
craftsmanship research. TO he oper-
ated in affiliation with the Carnegie
Institute Of Technology.
Its director Is DR.. w. D. Scott,
professor of psychology in North
western university. With him will
be associated such men as professors
G. NJ. Whipple, Of the University OF
Illinois, and NJ. V. Bingham and J.
b. Miner, Of the Carnegie Institute
OF Technology.
Aided ty well-trained assistants,
these experts can be counted on TO
make the bureau meet the expecta-
tons OF its founders.
Who are its founders? Not dreamy
enthusiasts, as you might imagine,
but hard-headed business men. In
fact, this new bureau of salesman
ship research Is backed by some OF
the biggest Industrial and CONNER
cial firms In the United States.
These frms-including leaders In
the steel. automobile. electric, and
life insurance business--haye con-
tributed many thousands OF dollars
to the support Of the bureau.
Which means. OF course, that they
firmly believe that, by psychological
experiment and By systematic study
OF the everyday experiences and
methods Of statesmen, salesmanship
can be put on a far more efficient
basis than It Is today.
Undoubtedly. however, the back
ers Of the bureau never would have
reached this belief had not psycholo-
gists convinced them. by concrete
proofs. that their science Is Of real
helpf,ilness to business. This Is the
fact OF chief significance connected
with the opening of the bureau OF
salesmanship research.

That way, politically, the Colonel is
perhaps the most fortunate man that
ever aspired.
It would have been better, though, if
it could have been postponed until the
night before the convention.
Now, as to garbage pals: Cover them
over, also.
Police Commissioner Gillespie has call
ed for more courtesy from his officers
in making arrests. Possibly the idea now
is to present buttonhole bouquet to the
man who knocks you down with his auto.
The real heroes Of the day, however,
were those who had to listen to some of
the speeches.
We are about to be introduced to
man who needs no Introduction 70 those
within the sound Of my voice:
A man who has sacrificed lifetime to the
party;
A man who In the face Of duty never
ninched;
A man whose name upon our ticket would
honor II;
the assurance that their interests would
have true representation:
man for whom this convention would
never have TO blush;
man with the courage to fight and gain
the victory;
man toward whom no one hos ever
dared point the finger OF scorn.
And so on and so forth, ad lib until
the man making the nominating speech
recalls the name of the man he is NOM

boom of William Alden Smith?

It looks to be up to Charles Z. Hughes

Economists also estimate that
these $4,000 blind persons deprive
the country OF approximately $4,000,

year.
