THE FORUM

Sunday afternoon in the Working
PEOPLES Committee Forum, Mr.. Axel-
HOl t delivered a very interesting dis
co rse entitled What is Money!? to
a large gathering of workers assem-
bled there n. The speaker pointed
out that there are four different ways
to consider money. l, as a common
medium of exchange; 2, as a common
measure Of value: 3. as a standard of
deferred payments; 4, as a store of
wealth. He explained the gradual evo,
luton of its presence from savage to
SO called civilized society. Barter, he
continued suited the perio that gave
it birth, but at present could not be uti-
lized in a iudicious manner. Commerce
made it necessary for mankind to have
a common medium of exchange ETC.,
and therefore money became a necessi-
ty. The state made a certain piece of
metal with the necessary inscription a.
legal tender, carrying with it its measure
OF valna. The speaker forcibly pl inted
out hoW defective the system Of Barter
would be III this age e. g. a shoemaker,
baker, or a carpenter, could not pro-
cure the necessaries of life by Barter,
since there would hav been no measure
OF value placed upon their commodities,
viz: Shoes, bread. and tables. An in
stance was cited where DIR. Wallace
whilst travelling thru the Malayan Pen
insuIar found out that the natives re-
fused to consider the money he had
brought along with him for compensa
ton when necessary. He was forced to
get beads, looking glasses, etc. etc, TO
give them in lieu Of money, which was

Then she stirred the brass kettle again
ana looked at the clock. Then she
proceeded to bring in large number
OF rods, each of which was Topped with
six twisted wiclis. and laid the ends
OF the reds neatly on the poles 1t
was then that we were tied up with
q little free rope allowed for limited

Jokes In Architecture.

The builders Of the old churches In
England We're not so serious but that
they now and then perpetrated q joke,
even In stone. On more than one Of
their creations they carved in relief n
scene representing monk preaching
soemnly to a flock Of geese. The same
humorous spirit Is sometimes to be
detected In the domestic architecture
of early times. Here Is an instance:
Just upon the boundaries Of Bed
Yorkshire and Hertfordshlre formerly
stood rambling old farmhouse. The
living room was long and low, and
on the center beam that went across
the ceiling was inscribed this legend:
III YOU are cold, 90 to Herfordshire, .

ton was explained by the fact thar

Elk Sheds AntIsrs Yearly.

As soon rs the old ones are gone

being that an upper prong appears
