iaIT BRITAIN ONLY IMPORTANT
MENACE TO THE FUTURE OF SILVER

ceeded the London market price Tn
the past several weeks deposits Of
silver In the State Bank of Germany
has increased from 5000 900 to ga
167.75o.
The indicated consumption by
China and India this year ia about
100000 ounces against $4,000
600 last year tabout $1,000 act
ually shipped in the first 8 months,
and the pre-war yearly averages of
100000 ounces.
The fact that living costs have
advanced from 500 to 400 per cent
In both countries should have attract
ed the attention Of experts on this
subject. Indicated higher costs will
obviously increase this demand.
III. as is estimated now. world
production this year amounts to 49,
900 900 ounces. the requirements of
the Far East and the Pittman order
In this country will amount to 49,
900 900 ounces.
THE balance Of $4,000, 900 ounces
would probably be less than total
commercial needs of Great Britain
and this country.
THE total demand, other than
those already mentioned, may in the
case of Russia alone exceed even
world production. The consumption,
where during the past three years it
was the largest source Of melted
down silver currency supplies, is Just
as significant.
The record SO far is that those
countries that have experienced the
greatest seventies In currency de-
probation, Russia and Germany. have
returned to the use Of silver.
AT the conclusion Of the world
war It was the dominant opinion of
the best minds that Europe would
Immediately seek to restore badly
disrupted credit and currency condi-
lions. What Europe did was to ac-
tually increase this burden double
fold.
Even at the beginning of the fifth
year after the war there is no posi-
tive assurance that Europe has final
ly decided to meet these practically
inevitable problems but we are sure
OF n thing; that the more unfortu-
nate nations. Germany. Austria and
Russia cannot be depended upon to
feed the London silver market
against a silver reserve that amount
ed to s29.620.000 at the beginning
of 1914.
What France may do is interest
ing, since her badly demoralized
franc appears to need substantial
support, a function silver performed
in the pre-war days when silver re-
of the Bank of France were
f25,4e1,S40 rather than the 2f1.-
100000 of the present time.
The only important menace is
Great Britain. Its position on both
silver and gold is critical. Does 1t
seek to accumulate more trouble or
does 1t desire a more peaceful flu
ture?" rFa,a

STILL HAPPY

The weather cannot make me glum though

climate is on tap, l wear a brightly beaming
map, and write sane and sounding verse, con-
tending that things might be worse. When sun
shine on the landscape floats | hoe my beans
and shredded oats, and carol high, uplifting lines
until the birds take in their signs. When wild
winds blow my hat away, | raise no cheep alacb-
aday; have another hat to wear, and if it goes,
| have my hair And this glad thought still re-
hearse Somewhere the weather is much worse
When through long days the tireess rain is beat
ing at the door and pane, l sit me down with div
ers books wherein the Sherlocks chase the crooks.
and when | tire of Mr. Holmes l dig me I'D a
book OF PONIES, and murmur, as l read the verse;
Somewhere it's raining ten times worse" I've
learned to take things they come, nor sigh
when they are out of plumb; there's something
pleasant can do when skies are dark as when
they're blue: there's something soothing | can
read when weather bureaus go to seed; there's
something joyous l can sing, though Pluvius
must have his fling. l would accept the universe

Of course they are not so common in the smaller

sands of men appealing for something to do that
they may be able to meet their obligations to their
families and to society. They are not so-called
charity cases and should not be in that category
In this Lakeland instance, Mr.. Business Man was
nonplussed. Then he thought Of the welfare
movement under way in the CITY, an organized eff
fort to bring relief in urgent cases but to do still
more than that---endeavor to secure employment
for those out of work and to make sure that until
work is secured, the dependent ones are cared for
with food and clothing. Herein lies true inter-
probation of what Lakeland wants 10 do with her
welfare fund. Those who have not had the
privilege of contrib biting to this fund will realize
what great opportunity is here presented.

Strong appeals made by the newspapers through
out Florida have had their effect in sending to the
registration places this week thousands of citizens
who otherwise might have overlooked this initial
step in the exercise of the full rights of citizenship
| Q live in a community and not be able to vote is
creative of a most uncomfortable feeling in the
breast Of the man and woman Interested in civic
affairs. There is something lacking-the oppor-
tunlty to exercise ones preference for men and
measures, at the ballet box. So wel-rounded
citizen is he or she endowed with all the rights of
personal expression in matters affecting the gen
eral welfare. 1t is truly reproach not to be
entitled to this endowment. Registration in Lake
land has been proceeding vigorously all week. The

ton places open in Lakeland, there should be no
