SUPER -C0OFS'' RIDE IN ANIMAL
CAGE WHILE 40 AND 8'S' TEAR
LOOSE AT WILD IMITATION

True to their promise, the wreck
ing crew. of the ''Forty and
Eights' livened things up in FL
\ Centre last night, and gave resi-
Ments of the city a sample of the
noise that members of the A.E.F.
lived in constantly for months at a
time. Any deficiencies the parade
might have had as to numbers was
more than offset by the spirit of
the participants and the high power
of their pyrotechnic equipment.
Guns cracked, red lights blazed,
: firecrackers cracked and the dya-
mite caps sputtered and sizzled as
the parade wended its way the
length of Main street.
Headed by the American flag,
with color guard, an army bugler
and drummer, the parade got un-
der way from the headquarters just
beyond the courthouse, about .
O'Clock. Following the color guard
and the impromptu band, came men,
bers of the "Forty and Fights"
each man wearing French trench
cap.
"Goofs'' All made Up
Following the members came the
''goofs' or candidates, horribly
smeared with greasepaint and
dressed in coveralls. The "wreck-

Twenty years ago young man
walked into the office of a Boston
banker and resigned the job that
was paying him 800 q month.
/, Then he Immediately offered to do
the same work for $3.50 month!
When the banker had recovered
from his astonishment he found
that the young man in question pro.
posed to do the same work for elev-
en- other bankers at $3.50 Il month
each. The deal was made and
Roger w. Babson became statisti-
elan for dozen Boston bankers at
combined income of $3.50 Il month
Today. he is the most widely quoted
man on business conditions in
America.
He collected figures on general
business and financial conditions,
copied them longhand, and deliv-
cred them daily to his customers
Being q graduate engineer it was
natural that he should try to ana
lyze these = Sfigures--to chart and
study them.
Studied Newton's Theory
Two years charting and study in
the back room of q house in Well
esiey Hills, Massachusetts brought
out just one fact-that each of
these individual factors when chart
ed evidenced sort of wave move
ment. Perhaps Newton's Law of
Action Reaction might govern here
as it did in physics and mathema-
ties. On the strength of the sup
position Roger Babson went to Eng
land and studied all the writings of
the great scientist that were avail
able. He came back convinced---in
fact he had found Newton s own
prediction that some day men would
realize that business and human re-
lations were governed by this same
fundamental law.

used for prisoners working on road
gangs. This triple -decked monstros-
ity hauled two more "super-goofs -
who were misled into believing it
would be- better in their cases to
ride than to walk. The writer be-
lieves walking would have been pre-
ferable, had he had a voice in the
matter.
The parade passed through Main
street to Fourth street, where it
countermarched and returned to the
scene of initiation. Spectators at
tracted by the noise and lights lined
the curb along Main street and en-
ioyed Il laugh at the antics of the
eX-service men. Due to the grease
paint on the "goofs' it was hard
for friends to recognize them, but
when anyone happened to do so, the
"goof'' was given the raspbcr-
ry.'
Upon arrival at headquarters, the
initiation ceremonies began at once,
and lasted until well after midnight.
Passersby on Main street could hear
the noise and tumult going on in
side and it was evident that the eX-
service men were having hot old
time.
The writer can also vouch that
the phrase at the end of the fore
going sentence is justifiable and is
thankful that the carnations were
not needed.

BabsOn, Foremost Statistic ian,
Proves That Theory of Newton Is
Applicable In Business World Also

Another years work and a dozen
of these figures on fundamental
business conditions had been com
bined into picture of American
business, which evidenced clearly
the governing principle of Newton s
Law.
The tremendous Importance of
this discovery and application is
apparent when you realize that for
hundreds, of years business men had
been the victims of a treacherous
current that favored them with pros
perity only to turn suddenly and
bring ruin and panic upon them.
Could Discern Tide
The history fevery depression
has been written i'll blood. Now all
this was to be changed for the bust
nessman could know which way the
tide of general business conditions
would run and could plan to take
advantage of the current instead of
irving to run counter to it,
1t was not as easy as that for the
man who discovered it. His friends
and business acquaintances judged
him crazy.
Since then the theories have been
proved, the scoffers have been con
vinced and the business world at
large has acceHed business fore
casting rs fact.
just now, Roger w. Babson is
busy building great educational
institution; namely, the Babson In
stitute, which is to perpetuate this
work. 1t is endowed and operat-
ed under Il non-profit making char
ter. In fact, the project is so pro-
missing that the several hundred
acres surrounding it just outside of
Boston is developing into the town
of Babson Park--a future center of
information and education to the
entire business world.
