workingman Not Skilled Spectator

Question--Through suggestions I started
buying Sinclair Consolidated stock in Octo-
ber. 1912 when they sold the highest
Since then I bought more. and average
now 46 on fifty shares. which I hold out
right. Would you advise to buy more 70
average still lower. what would you ad-
wise? / a working man and the
money was saved through self-denying by
and family.-T. A. X.
Answer-You have carried Sinclair
Oil stock a long way down the hill,
but it does not seem to have occurred
stock is not suitable investment for
a workingman's savings. You could
have chosen a worse stock, however. be-
cause Sinclair made an excellent record
in 1920. We do not advise about try
ing to average costs in stocks which
are so speculative. You have tried this
process at least once before and are
still about q points above the market.
