DON'T BE A HUSTLER"

Many man acquires reputation as hustler" on account of a habit of poorly organized physical activity, says Fred Kelly in The Nations Bus mess. People usually assume, too, that the hustler is bound to make a big success.
 The truth is that the average hustler, who merely darts about like a cricket on a hot stone, doesn't t amount to much. I recall letter. carrier in my native town whom ev- everybody regarded as live wire. He never walked except on the verge of run. Seemingly he was the fastest man in town at delivering mail. Yet he was in truth the slowest.
 He hustled so much-with his legs instead of his head-that he was con- stantly obliged to retrace his steps to remedy mistakes, and this kept him hustling more than ever Most of the great executives are not "hustlers" but are quiet and easy-going. They accomplish things not by being ex- cessively "busy" but by refusing to get excited.

GOV. HARDING AND DEFLATIoN

It is said that Secretary of the Treasury Mellon will urge the re- tention of w. c. P. Harding as the head of the Federal Reserve Bank system.
 In many circles MT. Harding is hailed as the right man in the right place, but there will be a great op- position to his being kept at the head of this great institution.
 His enemies charge that he is di- rectly responsible for the great loss to the country by the deflation of credits. When an effort was made to have the War Finance Corpora ton revived in order that the farm CTS and others miyht save them selves from ruin and disaster, Gov. Harding insisted that the power of the government could not be used to keep up prices. But at the same time the government was refusing to lend helping hand to the farm CTS of the country the treasury de- partment was continuing to loan money to Europe.
 The annual report of John Skel- ton Williams, erstwhile comptroller of of treasury stated that there was a decrease last year in the value of farm, mine and factroy production of from SIP, ,,000,000,000 to $18,- 100000. It is estimated that the aggregate decrease in property in this country last year was at least S25, 5,O00,O00, ,OOO, or about as much as our entire bonded indebtedness during the war.
 The liberty bonds, which were her. aided as being the best investment on earth, have been selling at below par. If another should be fore ed upon us at this time where would the government get the money to carry it on? The farmers have all been nearly ruined and the pres It liberty bonds ae in disgrace It would be hard 5o induce a large num- Der of people to put their meager savings into government bonds.
 It is charged that the Federal Re- serve banks have earned net profits of from 150 to 200 per cent, but you cannot prosecute the govern ment for profiteering.
 Gov. Harding will have plenty of opposition when his appointment comes up for confirmation.
 He undoubtedly has many friends, but the above charges have been openly made. We do not know Gov. Harding and the other members of the board have ever openly refuted them or not
 The deflation of credits has cost the country billions and it is one of the causes of the overwhelming dem- ocratic defeat last November. The Federal Reserve system may be and no doubt is a great thing for the country, but if it is unwisely admin stered it can work a great hardship on the people whom it was designed | to help.

also told the writer the same thing

py faculty Of finding a new, one for

peated and unexpected situations
that bring thrills Of delight, with
not dull or unihteresting moment.
The stage settings are unusually
beautiful.
The novelty Of the plot is interest
ing and the unfolding of the pretty
love story is most pleasing. The
courtship of Belinda is out Of the
ordinary, but both she and her love
score in the end and "Honors Are
Even." and all ends happily.
AS John Leighton. William Cour-
tenay's consummate acting is appar-
ent. All of his remarkable skill is
brought into play during the. three
acts, and his work leaves an impress
sion long to be remembered.
In the role of Belinda Carter, Lola
Fisher was ideal. Her fresh beauty
and charming personality and her
acting which was OF the utmost
skill, all made her absolutely per-
feet. and warranted the enthusiastic
greetings she received, sharing hon-
ors evenly with William Courtenay.
Miss Fisher made a stunning ap=
pearance in her various changes OF
exquisite costumes.
The support Of the entire cast was
excellent and special mention should
be made of the exceptional work OF
Gordon tombstone as Nigel Gordon,
Ethel Strickland as Lucille Berkeley,
Frank Andrews as David Carter. in
fact the whole company is strong
and we'll balanced, so the perform
ance was brisk, and the enjoyment
of the large audience was intense,
while the frequent applause showing
appreciation, was a tribute to the ar
tistry of the eo-stars and their eff
cient support.

Coal Men Told
to Give People
Square Deal Always

New York. May 20.-Former Gov
ernor John ]. Cornwell of West Vir-
ginia, advised the National Coal AS
ISOLATION today to see that the public
gets square deal at all times in the
organization to compel the outlaw
operators who gouge the public to play
the game on the square,"
He told the coal men that they cam
not expect public support and CO.
operation if some coal operators or
dealers gouge the public every time
they had an opportunity. He warned
them of the danger of government
control or naturalization of mines
and told them that what happened to
the railroads may happen to the coal
business if it does not meet the re-
quirements of the public.
Mr.. Cornwell pointed cut the
necessity of educating the public to
spread it's coal purchases over the
whole year so as to produce an even
demand for that fuel.
IF the people can get coal. get it
when they want it and get it at fairly
decent prices. whatever politicians
may say or want. the people will not
want the government to take over your
business, to manage it or handicap 1t
in any way" said Mr.. Cornwell.
1T is partly with you gentlemen to
decide whether there will eventually
be government control of the indus
try. 1t is UP to you to bring about
the cooperation of the government
and the public rather than to invite
their hostility; to see at all times that
the public gets a square deal. not only
from the producers of coal but from
the dealers and agents who handle it,"
