 "This has always been secret rlace for me-" said Val, quietly. T have come here always. It is so old and so still, so high in the sky, as if 1t is just under the feet of God and I sometimes fancy I can hear the angels wings sweeping about the cliffs.
 They dismounted and leaving the . horses to stand in hip-dropped rest, walked here and there among the huts of a lost, forgotten people.

TEXAS MAN BREEDS QUEEN

Raising and selling queen bees

OF more than $4,000. and most of this
is profit. Mr.. Ault's queen bee farm Is

twelfth year OF successful operation.
lie ships the queen bees all over the
United States and TO foreign lands,
Including Australia. Japan and coun-
tries Of Europe and South America.
He also ships many colonies Of work
Ing bees.
Breeding queen bees IL done partly
by artificial means. There would be
no money IN the industry If the ma
tural breeding method OF the bees
were depended on for queens, II Is
explained. II was discovered that the
working bees, like carpenters, per-
formed their work according to the
plans and specifications Of the archl-
tect so Mr. Ault began building large
cells for queens In the artificial wax
comb foundation. These queen cells
are then filled and produce queens,
according TO the foundation speciii'a-
tiUns.
AS a result of this artificial method
Mr.. Aut obtains about 100 queens
from every hive of 1000 to 1900 work
ing bees. instead of only one queen.
The bees are fooled, but they do not
seem TO mind It,
Queen bees vary In price When
the demand Is slow they sell for as
low as 81, but ordinarily they bring
$3.50 to $2.75 each. Just now there Is
an extraordinarily good demand for
them And the price is on the upward
trend.

Greed Defeats Safety
Many people with small means also
lose money because they insist on

GROWING RECOGNITION
OF ADVERTISING'S USE

Advertising first established Its place
as an economic factor as sales aid,
but as understanding and use Of II
have increased, its possibilities in 9th
er fields have developed until today
we find it employed in many forms
of service hitherto unthought OF. Adj
vertising has long been hampered in
its use by precedent, tradition, con-
ventions, and prejudices, which, un.
der analysis and experience, find lit
tie to warrant their existence. Gradu-
ally the falsity of their claims is be,
ing proved.
We were told for many years that
it was undignifed for bank or iidu.
ciary institution to advertise. and this
ediet, born of some superstition of the
past, was accepted without question
until finally 1t was intelligently ehat
lenged and II was discovered under
analysis that there was no sufficient
reason for its support. The inevitable
conclusion Of logic is that, whatever
is of genuine use to human beings,
whether 1t be goods or services, can
with truth and dignity, be advertised
and sold, and that 1t is just as proper
to merchandise forms of service as
various kinds of commodities.
InFhe logical development OF this
new understanding of the power of
advertising during the last decade,
we have seen many Of our banking
fduciary and investment institutions
actively employing the sales value OF
advertising in the marketing Of their
services. In this intelligent use OF
publicity they are not only increasing
their own immediate business return
but they are also helping to spread
better understanding of financial serv

In the business sense, the word In
vestment relates to the use Of money
In acquiring ownership Of property
Ownership may represent entire pos
session of property as of a home;
partial ownership as holding stock in
a corporation; or conditional owner
ship as in the case of buying mort
gage or a bond. When person makes
an Investment In bonds, he is really
loaning his money to the government
or corporation issuing them. He will
receive the interest which they earn
as long as he owns them, or until
they are paid of.
Ownership OF great corporations is
vested In individuals who have invest
ed money In their stock or bonds.
Many people regard the ownership of
the United States Steel Corporation,
for example, as differing from the
ownership Of, say, a small workshop.
Yet investors In shares OF Steel Cor.
poration stock are entitled to the same
rights, under the law, as the owner OF
the workshop. In the corporation, the
owners hold certificates Of stock as
evidence OF their investment, whereas
the owner OF the little workshop holds
a deed as title to his land.
Capltalistic Laws Protect Investors
Because the laws stand for the
equal protection OF all investors, it is
possible and profitable to make good
investments 1t gives an incentive to
work hard and to invest. The person
who wishes to invest must first work
and accumulate funds with which to
do so.
Bonds are always secured by mort
cages on the lands, buildings or other
property OF the corporation for which
the money has been used. When
bond natures the money must be re-
paid to the owner OF the bond.
All investors are a part of great
financial system which gathers up and
puts to work the wealth of the coun
try for the mutual benefit, prosperity,
and well-being OF all. In America, 1t Is
possible for any one who Is willing to
pay the price OF selfdenial and hard
work, to be an investor. Good invest
ments made in early life by saving
such small sums as may be possible,
lay the foundation for providing the
comforts OF later years, when 1t is
harder to earn a livelihood and when
poverty often becomes the condition
Of those who have not practiced
thrift In youth.
1t is not wise for those without ex-

HOW A RIP-ROARING
RADICAL WAS tanned
BY JOHN oAKWocD

The best story of the tanning Of
radical | have ever read Is told by A.
n. Farquhar in his book "The First
Million the Hardest" 1t throws more
light on the meaning of capitalism
and the futility of socialism than IL
brary full OF books on sociology, eco
Monies and politics. Here 1t is as
Farquhar tells It:
"Thc best antidote for acute eco
nomic insanity is ownership OF prop
erty. My favorite example is Otto
Steininger. He was one OF my first
employees and was riproaring an
archist. He insisted that all wealth
came from the workers and therefore
should go back to the workers. He
was particularly bitter against his
landlord and hardly week went by
that he did not announce that he had
definitely decided that he would like
10 shoot the landlord the next time
he came around for the rent Finally
| asked him smilingly after one Of
these outbursts:
Buy, Don't Shoot
"'Why don't you buy your own
house instead of shooting your land
lord? Then you would not have to
pay any rent If you do shoot him you
may get into trouble
HE did not think much of the idea
apparently but in day or two he
asked me how he could buy the house.
answered: That house can be
bought for $500. You are getting good
wages. l will buy that house for you,
take 81 a week out of your wages,
and in less than four years you will
have It paid for
"He went off again. The next time
he came back 1t was with his wife.
He said; We are going to buy that
house but since we have no children
you can take $40 instead Of 81 week
out of my pay envelope
81 bought the house and then Otto's
chief concern was to get 1t paid for,
which he did in little more than a.
year. There was another house next
door to him. In a short while after
he had paid for his first house, he
sided up to me and said:
"T can buy that house next door
for a thousand dollars. Now that we
have no rent to pay we are going
along good. What would you think
about me buying that?'

"CAPITALISTS"-AND
DON'T KNOW 1T

A good many people who rail
against capital are beating their own
backs. Some are savings bank deposit.
ors; some have shares In building and
loan associations; some have bought
q liberty bond; some have ordered a
stock of goods for their store. All Of
them, without knowing 1t, have per.
formed a great miracle, for they have
turned the work of their hands OF
their brains into new product viii
while it helps them, IS helping Il
sands of others. Every one -
Is a capitalist as most of us d
less we are tramps or paur
ne'er.dowells-and we may
proud Of the name. For capt.
instead Of being the devilish inv
ton of few selfish interests, is tn
great material force that has lifted
millions from poverty, degradation
and slavery.
Like other human institutions, CAPT.
tai can be abused. So, too, can eye
sight and health and education and
love. Part of Americas great job is
to remedy and prevent such abuses.
Sane people, however, do not cut OF
their feet to get rid of their corns.
Capital is today's surplus 1t Is
what gives us better start tomorrow
than we had today. II we don't save
1t, we don't have 1t, and when we
have it, 1t is useless until 1t Is put to
work.
II thrift is right, then 1t is right
that people should acquire funds as
the result Of their industry and self
denial. But money that Is merely
boarded is like water that becomes
stagnant; 1t is harmful, not helpful.
When money is put to work, 1t Is Ike
water power; it turns the wheels Of
industry, increases employment and
raises the general level of comfort.
! When every producer can create q
surplus and that surplus can be gath.
cred into common fund AID put to
