Newspaper Man Speaks
The lecture of the evening was by
Charles l.. Ficklin, newspapernan
of Maryville, Missouri, ~uo had for
a subject, big Men of Tomorrow"
The theme of his lecture was the
democracy of character and he
argued that no man rs a big man
who is snob and only ne IS grea,
who unselfshly recognizes the orner
fellow, whoever he may be.
He said: THE word democracy is
on the lips of everyone. When a
nation throws off the YOKE OF autoc-
racy and establishes a republic In
stead. we say that one more nation
has been added to the world Of de-
mocracy. Some say democracy
means to us the right Of the ballot
being given to all men anG women.
1t does mean that, but 1t means much
more. We only exercise that right
of franchise two or three times
year, and we ought to exercise this
spirit of democracy 365 days in the
year The man of tomorrow If he is
to have place and prestige and in
fiuence, must recognize the rights OF
all men, all women and all children.
Likes Spirit of Boys.
81 like the spirit of the boys who
have come home from the war in
contrast with our spirit here at
home
I'VE at home worked for the Red
Cross and we bought Liberty bonds
and we did all we could, and we
wanted everybody to know 1t. The
boy who came home, VINO had fought
at the Argonne forest or at Chateau
Thierry, who had been through hell
for the preservation or democracy,
always magnifies the work of the
other fellow and if you aslc what he
did he'll say, oh, forget IT."
The speaker took shot at the
daylight savings law ana said, "The
big man of the future IS going to
stand out against such rooI legisla-
ton as the daylight saving law which
sends farmer in for his dinner at
1920 o'clock in the morning and
gives him his supper in the middle
Of the afternoon, and gets midnight
along about shutdown Just because
some men in Washington and one
man in the white house says so.'
In closing he said, 1.-THE German
dea was that the body OF the man,
MS strength, his skill in war, was |
he great thing. The new democracy
says the soul Of the man Is the big
hing his body should OK course be
Kept fit as the temple Tor that soul |
1.-THE coming democracy must be |
christian democracy where the rights |
If all men are recognized and the |
'eet of humanity shall be kept in
he path Of eternal peace.

the grandeur Of the ANDERSON family

polished and glittering barriers which
were as solid as they were brilliant

wide archways in a rose-vine lattice
framed gliding silhouettes of walters,
already smoothly at 1t to the castanets

evidently surfeited, was in the act OF
leaving these delights escorted by
middle-aged man of commonplace ap-
pearance. The escort had dry, lined
face upon which, not ornamentally
but as a matter of course, there grew
a business mans short mustache; and

"A woman that lets a bad boy like

these insolences.
Isabel stroked his head. "They

at all, for he belonged, as most Amer
lean children do, to the mothers fam

with Miss Morgan in the vicinity OF
old John, whom he felt to be a dis
grace.
He pushed brusquely through the
fringe of calculating youths who were
gathered in the arches, watching for
chances to dance only with girls who
would soon be taken off their hands,
and led his stranger lady out upon the
floor. They caught the time instantly
and were away In the waltz.

strange feelings within him: an exal-

and seemingly located In the upper
part of his diaphragm.
The stopping Of the music came

clock; for instantly six or seven OF
the calculating persons about the en-
tryways bore down upon Miss Morgan
to secure dances. George had to DO

BY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Operations in the stock market today were again very large and expansive, but the tone was more convincing in the absence of tine bewindering fluctations which characterized recent dealings Several of yesterdays cratic issues were again prominent, at new high records, but they were eclipsed by impressive strength of standard industrials, a sharp revival of interest in steels and coppers being the most noteworthy feature.
 Buying of the latter issues probably resulted from the more encouraging trade surveys or reviews, while the metal market displayed firmer tenden- cies.
 Demands for steels, which reached its height in the final hour, was pre- ceded by another advance in motors, including several of the low priced issues; also by a better tone for those equipments most dependent on the stabilization of the steel industry.
 At their best, quotations of steels and coppers were to points higher. Equipments also gained to points.
 In sharp contrast to its recent course, call money opened at g Der. cent, that rate prevailing until the last half hour when loans dropped to 6 per cent.
