THIS is THE BIRTHDAY OF
Prudence CrandaN,
is IT YoURS7
SEPT, 1908.

t7ISi bSNS'
A curious story of unreasonable
persecution is told in the history Of
Prudence Crandall gentle Quakeress
of New England, and one of the first to
agitate for abolition.
Prudence was born in Hopkinson,
r. l., in 1903, of a good Quaker family.
When she was is, with some other
women she opened a school for young
ladies in Canterbury. Conn. A colored
girl applied for admission, and Pru-
denCe took her in and started teaching
her.
This enraced the parents of tho
other girls so that they took away all
her white pupils. Prudence replied
that colored girl had as much right
as any other to an education. In 1887
she opened Il school Just for colored
girls. and rapidly filed it up. The
townspeople were enraged, meetings
were held, she was forbidden TO enter
shops or attend meetings and law
was introduced into the Legislature
preventing the education OF non-resi-
dent negro girls.
Prudence was arrested in June. tried
twice and aCquitted-not on the justice
of her idea, but on a technicality of
the law She was prosecuted, family
and friends were forbidden to visit
her her home was pelted with all sorts
Of filth In the face of this she per-
siste din her work. 49,. .. .........
Later she married a minister, and
she lived until 1889. long enough to
have seen abolition become a fact.
and communities grow more broad

q DISCOVERY THAT
BENEFITS MANKIND

Two discoveries have added greatly
to human welfare.
In 1885 Newton originated the vac
uum process for condensing milk with
cane sugar to semi-iquid form.
In 1883 Horlick at Racine, WIS.,, dis.
covered how to reduce milk to dry
porder form with extract Of matted
grains, srithout cane sugar.
This product hoRlck named
Matted HaHk. Name since copied
by others.) Its nutritive value,
digestibility and ease of preparation
(by simply stirring in ~ater) and tho
fact that it keeps in any climate,
has proved of much value to mankind
as an ideal food-drink from isJlsey
to old age.

BUYING SAlESM ANSRiP.

The federal trade commission, in its
suit against the Pan Motor Company az
-. Cloud. MINI, charges that approx
mately s4.723,S1l of other peoples
money had been taken in by the stock
statesmen, of which s1l56.65T had been
paid to the statesmen for commissions
and another half million had gone TO
Pandolfo, the promoter. for "services.s
This may he an extreme case OF
stock selling even if the charges are
true, but it is a warning to all inves-
tors TO beware Of the salesman who
has capital stock to sell. He is out
more for the commission there is In
his sale and not so much to carry gilt
edged investment opportunity 10 COM
parative strangers.
If the business proposed should prove
TO be a sound venture the investor will
get no more than so cents of value
for the dollar paid if the salesman gets
% per cent commission for selling the
stock.
Liberty bonds. which always have
gone above par within a few years aft
er a war. and war savings stamps
which are guaranteed TO mature al
more than they cost. are far safer for
people who are not close enough to the
management to know all about the
business in which they are investingA
The thing that makes building and
loan association shares so safe is thai
the law limits their operations to the
county in which they are located In
vestors thus know the men who invest
the associations money and the direc-
tors know the borrowers who use the
money.
When you buy stock in anything
go with it." advises Frank Let's 10 his
wholesale grocery managers. and his
advice upon financial matters has al
ways been valued highly by bankers
and merchants who know him best.

Tho climate solution Of the railroad
pre-, lem will have 10 follow some such
plan as inc SUD committee of the SEN
ate committee in Interstate commerce
has propos' d unGCr the leadership OF
Senator Cummins OF Iowa.
The country has had enough Of GOV
eminent OWNERSHIP and operation We
are re;.dy to return TO private owner
ship and operation both for efficiency
and service and reduction in cost Ct
transportation. This is contemplated
in the cunIattee plan
We are not wiling 10 turn dis

nu"Caprcr~ any more tEan can We at
ford 10 let two million organized en-
ploycs fix the wage tax which the rest
OF loj millions must pay for railroad
service There must be government
control over financial operations, train
ops ration and ates and as 4 logical
sequence there must be government
control over wages because the pub
lie depends upon uninterrupted rail-
ROAD service for its very life. The
committee plan provides for ali of this,
Perhaps the most advanced step in

most logical and inevitable is the ban

roads.
There was a time when owners OF

fiscat.ng private property by authoriz-
ing public commission to fix the rates
HIGH railroad owners should charge

ton from exploitation caused US soon

that those who wished to invest their
money in public service must accept
public regulation of the rates to be
| charged.
| Then came the further acceptance
Of the right of the public to regulate
the operation of railroads so as to pro-
tect the lives Of the passengers, the
safety o, the employee and the property
Of shippers.
II is a most logical and inevitable
development now that men who wish
to enter employ ment at public service
shall submit to public regulation OF
their wage just as investors in railroad
service must submit to public regu-
latior of their income. II had to be
