There can be no doubt that the sit

What's Your Exchange Value?

The world is worrying considerably
over exchange values, those in mind
being the equivalents in value OF
money. the ratio Of the unit OF the
money Of one country to the units Of
another. 1t might be better were it
worrying respecting the equivalents
OF its individuals. better still il the
individual were doing little worry
ing on his own account.
BY. the way. and If you don't mind.
what is your exchange value? Rath-
er, let's all take an inventory Of our
equivalents. One is employed by an
other, is he rendering to his en-
ployer an equivalent? Is he worried
il he isn't or pleased to think he is
putting one over?" II he's giving
more than an equivalent for what he
receives doesn't he owe it to himself
to bring that fact to the employers
attention? II he's giving his employer
Just ordinary work and receives but
Ordinary pay for it he surely has
nothing Of which to complain other
than himself II he receives ordinary
consideration.
Are the successful people you
know that kind? Has the fellow who
sold you a barrel Of apples he must
have known were partly rotten put
one over on you or several on him
self? Did you ever know that sort of
"a fellow to ever get anywhere
really, intrinsically anywhere" o,
yes, he may get quite a bunch Of
money, but would you want to change
places with him for what he's got ?
If you do you belong in his class and
it's only a question Of time when
people generally will find it out.
These things are trite. Of course
they are. So are birth. death and
taxes. but they are also real. There's
no other in all the world who may
increase your value, that job is yours.
All Of US are up against the fact that
values change, one day your equiva-
lent may be greater, by the
same process it may be less: we may
bull" the market, but there is sure
to be someone or something that will
bear it. but if we have 1.-The goods
to deliver we may easily weather
fluctuations. II We haven't, no syn
dictate, no union. no friend at court"
may sustain the exchange value for
long, and when the slump does come
it will be all the worse because of
their interference.
If seeking novelty, instead of
watching your step, watch your price
mark; see that it corresponds with
your exchange value.

Were he still in his earthly pilgrim
age Theodore Roosevelt would have
succeeded Woodrow Wilson in the
White House one year from today
He was the antithesis in word and
deed. in principles and in their ap-
piication. in peace and in war, az cit
izen soldier and statesman, in almost
every relation Of life, Of the man
whose administration will end one
year from today. If there is new
mourning for Roosevelt throughout
the nation during this epochal month
Of March. it will be due to the deep
enins and widening sense Of the loss
suffered by the nation from the day
that he was taken from his earth:y
