AMERICAS FUTURE

MOST of Americas first railroads
Az were financed by English capi-
tai. For well over a century after we
had won our political independence,
we remained financially dependent.
But now how the tables have turned.
A recent news item announces that
American engineers and American
capital is back of the construction of
100000 900 freight subway systems
for the city of London. It is right to
say that America has become the fl
nancial and business capitol of the
world.
But in spite of this, every city,
every county, and every corner Of
the nation is filled with people who
have little faith in the future Of the
nation. Every change they think is
change for the worse. Because bus
mess is bad this year, they imagine
it will be bad next year, and the fol-
lowing year. Instead of plunging ac-
lively into their own business affairs
they wall about conditions, and blame
the times for their own failures.
Business universities, Of course,
must be expected, and accepted with
. smile. For many classes, business
has been bad for the past few years,
but improvement is most certainly in
sight. Babson's latest report indi-
Gates that business has been on the
upgrade for many months thruout

ones vision.
DIR. Brunn is certainly no "ten-
derfoot" when it comes to horticul-
ture, for one saw him but day or
two ago in his bare feet tending
his plant friends. And apparently
the bare foot idea was premeditated
for on remarking to the doctor upon
the fact he replied in effect, "Do you
realize that the only two places on
the body that are minus hair cells.
are the palms Of the hands, and the
soles of the feet ;"
Then he added: when the system
becomes. over-magnetized, the earth
draws from the human system the
surplus; likewise when mder-mag-
netized the human system draws from
the earth" One states this to show
the mental attitude Of the doctor
when designing and caring for his
garden. To him, the plant breathes
lives, and in silent language speaks

WILL STRESS CITIZENSHIP

Citizenship will be given greater
emphasis than ever before in the
state public schools, beginning next
year, the department of education an
nounces. A revised course of study is
in preparation.
The teaching of citizenship and its
duties will begin in the fourth and
fifth grades, children being impressed
with their part in public life as
school attendance. As the children are
able to understand it they will be
taught the theory of school govern
ment, then of town, county and state
governments beginning at home
where the children will be urged to

REDUCES COSTS

THE OLD notion that advertising
I increases the cost of merchandise
has been pretty well exploded by this
time, but there are still people who
believe the man who says:
"That company puts the stuff in
the goods and not in Advertising
The real reason that advertising
has grown by leaps and bounds in
this country within the past few
years is simply because manufactur-
ers and progressive merchants have
found it the cheapest known method
of selling.
One can reach thousand people

the country, and this steady improve
ment in conditions everywhere is
bound to affect every village and
hamlet in due course of time.
It was j. Pierpont Morgan who
said that no one ever made money
without faith in the future Of Ameri-
ca. And Morgan evidently knew some
thing about the art Of accommodating
wealth.

pACIFISTS used to urge that all
nations agree to wait year af-
ter controversy before starting
war. During that time, they argued,
both sides would cool down and there
would then be no fight. Mr.. Dempsey
has evidently applied this theory to
himself. He now says he will fight
Wills in year.
