The Productivity" of any particu- lar security must be judged by itself in conjunction with the security of the principal.
 Marketability-The Ability to Turn
 Into Cash.
 Where one demands absolute mar Reliability for funds, he must have the cash in hand. Next to actual money, bank deposits are the most liquid form of wealth, they being available by checks drawn on the bank for payments. It is important, however, to remember. that wealth so held usually earns no profit for the holder and consequently costs him the in come that would be deprived from this wealth if it were at work.
 The second stage is a deposit in a Savings Bank which has the priv ilege, upon notice, of withholding payments against such deposit for a period of 50 to 90 days. These banks pay the depositor only moderate rate of interest.
 Through the different classes of in vestment this general rule holds good that "The greater the marketability the lesser the income" If the investor requires for his needs that his funds be in such shape that he can convert them into cash at any time, he must be satisfied with smaller return for the use of his money than though this were not the case.
 Many buyers of securities demand a higher degree of marketability than they are likely to need, but this phase of investment must be given careful thought in connection with the per sonal requirements of the investor. The marketability of a security de- bends upon the strength of the public demand therefore, be 1t on an "Ex- change" or in the "open market Many of the best securities embody- ing strength and large yield are low in marketability as they are not gen. erally known to the public.
 Taxes.
 Under the present Federal and state laws there are no investments entirely free of tax, but different classes of investment bear different l tax burdens.
 This subject is so complicated that it would be impossible to deal with ii in these short articles. It is not ot great moment to the average in- -~ast.-, yet, bvfore deciding e,ny l particular security, it's tax position should be ascertained from reliable ] sources.

uNc0NQUERED

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch Of circumstance
I have not WINGED nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings Of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade,
And vet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate.
How charged with punishments the
scroll,
I am the master Of my fate:
I am the captain Of my soul.
