SOME THINGS ABOUT
STRANGE MR.. YOU"

We are strange nervous mechan-
isms, we humans, fearfully and
wonderfully made And here are
three of the strangest things about
us, caught in the far-fung net Of
today's news:
A young soldier, mentally
wrecked by shell-shcck, was ex-
perimented on by doctors. Taken
to room where everything was a
vivid red, he shrieked in agony.
Then they led him to a primrose
yellow room. He sighed happily,
drifted to deep sleep. Kept in this
room he rapidly recovered to nor
NAL.
S. T. Ballinger, Of New York,
tells this remarkable tory Of
convention of paint and varnish
makers.
Ballinger says scientists have dis
covered that a room furnished in
dark color tends to cause mel
ancholia and an aversion to work.
A red room temporarily stimulates,
then reacts in nervous headache.
Blue induces calm. Green seems
to impart happiness and vitality.
Yellow makes people amiable, con-
tented, soothed.
A good tip, when you re-decor-
ate the home. To avoid mOnot-
ony, use combinations, not one
color alone.
The effect of color vibrations on
our nerves is a mystery.
Railroad riding will be rougher
as the weather gets colder, says
DR.. Plimmon H. Dudley, weather
expert for the New York Central
railroad.
You think it wonderful that
frost can shrink steel rails and
makes them crack. More wonder
full is that we strange humans are
more powerful than either cold or
steel, both our slaves. Our men
tai and nerve powers, compared
with animals, are little short of
terrible.
In Western Electric laboratories
this is discovered: The human
voice can be reduced to a millionth
of its volume and still be heard.
But the voice cannot be heard
when reduced to a ten-millionth.
This is remarkably fine dis
tinction, the vanishing point of
sound so enthusiastically minute
that human brain cannot con-
ceive of it.
Yet it holds good for all nor
NAL ears, although no two people
hear the same thing in exactly the
same way.
When you ponder marvels, con-
slider the delicacy of the human
nerves that make all this possible.

WAR SAVES BECOME
DUE JANUARY 1ST.

Remember those war savings
stamps and certificates that you
bought in 1918? Better hunt
them up. They're due Jan. /,
principal and interest. And I'm
Gle Sam is ready to pay them off,
or trade them for new certifi-
Gates at per cent interest COM
pounded twice a year, whichever
you want.
When you cash in your certif-
Gates, remember your Americas
banker pays 4 per cent, compound
cd semi-annually, on savings de-
posits. And when you deposit
your money in the bank you can
get it any day you want it. I'm
til you need the cash, let it re-
main there earning interest for
you. Interest is the only worker
that still observes a 24-hour day.
II you have had much interest to
pay you'll recognize this fact.
Let this sink in: When you de-
post your money with your local
banker, the cash is there available
for the development of local en-
terprisc and industry. Every dol
lar you deposit in your local bank
helps the community in which you
iive-and out of which most of US
live as well. a"A '"" r
Treasury officials estimate that
no less than 100000 Americans
own war savings certificates Arc
you one of these. Hundreds of
thousands of spendthrifts and stock
market suckers are wising they
had invested surplus earnings dur
ing war days in war savings, or
deposited the money in their local
banks. 54.,
A million doesn't look as big as
it used to. Most of us talk of
million as If it were dozen eggs,
Nevertheless, you'll admit that
$625, 100000 is considerable of a
figure.
That's the total value of the
war savings stamps and certificates
maturing Jan. /, 1928. If Uncle
Sam has to pay all of the owners
of these securities in cash he'll
have to turn a few financial hand
springs. His loose cash in the ma
tional treasury will be rather low
at the end of the year. But he'll
pay you, if you demand the cash.
Your banker will let him have the
money if he needs it, so when you
go to the postoffice window on
New Years Day there's one thing
certain-you'il get all the money
,Incle Sam owes you on war savies.
When you get it, don't let the
money lie idle. Deposit it with
you local banker. Americas has
three good, strong banks, where
your money is safe, and where it'll
work "a hours day for you with
out watching.

A THOUGHT

For this cause l bow my knees
unto the Father, Of whom The
whole family in heaven and earth
is named-Ephesians STA, Is.
God is law, say the wise; o Soul,
and let Us rejoice,
For if He thunder by law, the thun-
der IS yet His voice.
Law is God, say some; No God at all,
says the fool;
For all we have power to see is q
straight staff bent in pool;
And the ear of man cannot hear, ana
the eye Of man cannot see;
But if we could see and hear, thi.
vision-were it not He?

HE REAL PROBLEM
OF ECONOMIC LIFE.

There's one retail store for ev-
cry 40 families in America. Will
liam G. Shepherd tells this to a
convention of advertising men.
One groceryman in 90 fails each
year.
In the long run, according to
John Wanamaker, only one man
in 25 who go into any kind of mer-
chandising makes a success Of it.
A fine thing to be in business
for yourself-your own boss. But
DID lot of thinking before you
try it.
If you, later on, start store,
what line of goods should you Sc
rect, to make you the most money?
This is your first thought, and an
important one.
But the number of dollars TAX
ell by merchant does not always
determine how much profit he can
make.
On the average, says Shepherd,
to run a store takes II cents out of
each dollar received by the grocer.
Similar figures are: 10 cents on
81 for butchers, 25 cents for hard-
ware dealers, "a cents for clothing
sellers and 26 cents for shoe
dealers.
The figures vary according t
the amount Of sales. As bust
ness grows, overhead expense is
carried on the shoulders Of an in
ereasing number of dollars. This
