HALF OF INCOME SPENT ON ANIMALS
Two Missouri Women Care for
 Mans Abused Companions

Kansas City. Mo. June 1S.-Would you be willing to give more than half of your modest income to make life less rigorous for neglected or suffer- ing animals?
 Such is the sacrifice being made by Miss Sarah and II. II. Jacobs of Kan sas City. Kansas, across the river from here. And it is no mere pass ing hobby-they have been doing this for the last quarter century. The Jacobs are nationally known for their unselfisE work.
 Living in a little cottage. surround cd by rose bushes, bird houses, flower beds and fruit trees, these two have consecrated their lives to ameliorating the hardships visited upon nan's of ten neglected and abused compan- ions.
 H. H Jacobs provides the income by working as n bookkeeper on the Missouri side, while Miss Sarah looks after the home and its numerous pets And there are many pets in the Jacobs home-tcn dogs. two score cats and two parrots. The care of these pets. however, represent only minor part of the activities of the two workers. Both are officers in the Wyandotte County Humane society and labor necessarily to benefit animal life through that source. With all this the Jacobs are not unmindful of the needs of unfortunate children and even adults of their city, as they are active in the Associated Charities. Miss Sarah, who was found at home busy with her charges, said that her first instruction in humane work was when she was a little girl and her father taught her that it was just as easy to step around an ant hill as to crush it with her heel. The father was Samuel Jacobs, formerly of St Joseph, Mo. who helped build the Hannibal & St. Joseph railway. now part of the Burlington system. and who was editor of the Jefferson. an nti-slavery democratic paper of Fair field, Ia.
 While thoroughly orthodox in their theology. tho Jacobs believe firmly that most of the sin and suffering in the world has followed mans habit of killing and abusing animals. There is nothing mawkish about their views however. Miss Sarah. as president of the Humane society. has personally chloroformed hundreds of diseased, deformed and homeless animals.
 "It sometimes is expedient," she said. "to remove them to avert furth- CT suffering. When it is necessary to put an animal 10 sleep I always utter n word of prayer. tR king full responsi- bilitp for the act"

the needs of our international po- sition and is constantly being ex- tended. The large American banks have numerous branches abroad, and in every country there are di- rect banking connections with New York. Whatever may be the de- velopment of our foreign trade, it will surely be accompanied by a similar growth and strengthening of this great financial organization, upon whose service must rest the orderly and successful conduct of overseas commercial transactions.
 Now we have all the foundation stones for any international trade structure that we may decide to erect: We have ships, a world wide banking organization, illimit- able capacity for production of both raw materials and manufac- lures, and capital resources far be- yond any competitor. We have ceased to be a debtor nation and, in addition to a record of actual fa-

 High prices have been an impor- tant factor influencing this won derful record of exports, but in spite of that element, the figures of our present trade disclose an un- usual story of commercial activity. Vastly increased capital, ample shipping, and an enormous foreign trade were all the immediate result of the stimulus of the war, con- bined with our exceptional re- sources as an agricultural and manufacturing nation.

after them. Many carry a story of human interest, with sometimes a tragedy.
 There is Cinderella, who had been brutally wounded. The Jacobs decid- ed to chIoroform the animal to relieve its intense suffering. Finally it strug- gled over to the open fireplace and curled up in the warm ashes. Soon it showed signs of rallying and they concluded it should live. It did re- cover. The incident strongly remind ed them of the fairy story of the little girl sitting in the ashes and who lat CT was able to wear the glass slipper. and the spotted hound became Gin dereI1a.
 Little Topsy once was owned by a woman of the streets whose precar- ious existence did not permit her to care for the pet. She brought Topsy to the Jacobs and up to the time of the woman's death she regularly came to visit the dog.
 Miss Jacobs told of a cat that saved their lives. A leaky gas jet had filled the house with fumes while they slept. The cat meowed in vain and

The boy died and on the night of his funeral the animal was carried away and locked in a freight car bound for Arkansas. A fortnight later the cat returned home. nearly starved. The
 boys mother took it to the Jacobs home.
 Some of the animals of other days, especial favorites who had earned some mark of distinction. are buried in the flower garden. There are no markers, save a stone border around the grave of He! mano (MeXican for "brother'D, long in the family. Her
 mano had saved Miss Jacobs life in Texas when a big Tattler was about to strike her. The dog bounced upon the snake and received the poisonous bite. He became blind but lived many years.
 Asked about the cost of pursuing their humane work, Miss Jacobs said it amounted to six or. seven hundred dollars a year. She insisted. however, that this did not constitute a sacrifice, that they derived pleasure from it and preferred to spend their money in this way, even if it forced them to give up many comforts.

Since our earliest days as a na- tion, 1t has been tradition, carried almost to extreme, that we should maintain a position of aloofness in international affairs, and this atti- tude has influenced our policies to- wards foregin trade and shipping, as well. We have always had a foreign commerce, but never as a primary interest, as In Great Britain and Germany, where such trade has been vital to them for many years. Our own domestic market has been so great that it absorbed by far the greater per centage of our production of every kind and, similarly, the opportu- mites at home for the use of capi- tai for the development of our abundant resources have not only absorbed all our own surplus funds for investment, but have also drawn upon the capital of other countries. Great Britain especially, to a total of billions of dollars.
 It is true that mines in Mexico, Chile and Peru. the meat freezing plants in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay. and the paper industry in Canada, for example, have at- tracted several hundred millions of our investments abroad, but we were heavily indebted to other countries for capital they had loaned to us during many years. Today the change in this financial situation of the country is very marked. We have rebought large proportion of our foreign-owned securities and, in addition, have loaned about fifteen billions to foreign governments and to munich pal and private creditors, mainly in European countries.
 The Federal Reserve Act has given us n foreign banking organi- zation that Is quite adequate for

, surplus would mean serious labor | depression. It is no longer true that we can look with compara- tive indifference upon our exports | of manufactured articles as com prising too small a part of our total trade to be a matter of serious concern when they fall off. For many years the ratio of exports of manufactures to our total man. ufacturing production has been in- creaSing, until now it has reached an amount that probably spells the difference between prosperity and failure in many industries. Sales of nearly three hundred million dollars worth of automobiles abroad are case in point, or, for example, the total sales of leather products valued at nearly two hun dred million dollars. It is we'll to examine the recent development of our trade in some detail, for as we study the situation, at every turn we perceive the urgency of a na- tion-wide comprehension of these facts-our need for foreign mar kets and, further, our reliance upon foreign sources of supply of es- sential raw materials to keep our factories employed.
 When we review the course of our foreign trade during the war and since the signing of the Ar mistice, it is obvious that we are dealing with a period which is ab- normal, as compared with any period of our peace time experi- ence. During the nineteenth cen tury our merchandise trade grew steadily larger in value. During

seize this greatest of all our op- portunitieS? In fact, we must go forward, or we shall inevitably be forced to retreat from our present position with heavy losses all along the line-in shipping, banking and trade. We are already vigorously challenged by competitors in for eign markets. A courageous na- tional policy of 1egitimately ag- gressive development of all these newly co-ordinated resources for the conduct of foreign trade is es- sential.
 Every rchant, man. ufacturer, banker, farmer or la borer-has some stake in this Strug- gle. Our sales abroad of two billion dollars. worth of food prod Ucts annually. is. a fact of impor tance to every farmer, either in di- rect interest or in effect upon prices. Exports of two hundred million dollars worth of tobacco and more than a billion dollars in value of cotton add force to this ar gument. '>

Our foreign trade may 00 C01e

 wheat, flour, meat fruits, dairy
 produce, etc.; raw materials, h. cluding cotton, coal, tobacco. lum-
 Der, copper, zinc, iron, steel, Ieath- CT, oil, etc.; and manufactures, in. cluding agricultural implements. textiles, machinery, automobiles

 but for the sake of simplicity we
 shall consider here only the broad
 divisions mentioned. An effect of the war upon our export trade was an immediate increase in the ship ment from this country of food stuffs and of finished manufactures. AS European industry turned from its normal pursuits to the pfodue- tion of munitions, . decline took place in shipments of raw mats- rials. Commodities such as eoppeR were in greater demand than 1oes merly. Cotton, which had con- prised the bulk of raw expoEtA was then desired in the finished fathe& than the raw condition.
 During 1919 and 1920, On t6a other hand. the major inc1ease i1j our export trade Is traceable to tAoi demand of the old industrial na-l tions for our raw materials and! our foodstuffs, which were ueedod to re-establish their manufActure6 Our shipment of raw materials, es-I pecially cotton and tobacco. began to increase, though copper and steel decreased.

One of the most important real
estate deals that has been made in
Cookeville for some time, and one
that should mean a great deal 20 the
city's future, was the purchase by
r. H. Harding of the brick building,
formerly known as the w; it's Drug
Building. laying between the stores
of Jenkins & Darwin Bros. and A. l..
Neely, in West Cookeville. Mr..
Harding will Immediately go to work
having the building put in order and
equippd for a modern up-to-date pho
tographic studio, and it goes without
saying that when Mr. Harding does
thing, it is well done, for he has
earned that reputation since his So
journ in Cookeville began, as tho
roughly as any business man who
could be named. He came to Cooke
vile about eight years ago, having
then purchased small Photograph
ic business which was even at that
time apparently Insignificant with
reference to volume of business
done, and he has gradually built it
up until today he has a most flourish
ing establishment, because he has
refused absolutely to turn out any
thing but first class work, which
