This is a sort of postgraduate.
or a postscript, notation to our little
story of yesterday. 1t is addressed
also TO the graduates Of our higi
schools and colleges, who are max
ing ready to find their places in the

Most of the thought we wish to
pass along today comes from c. W.
Barron. dean OF financial students and
writers, who is editor Of the Wall
Street Journal, and while it is not all
quoted in his language, the major
thought is his.

in the machinery, tools or anything
that can multiply your own useful

When you have all the machinery.
tools and implements to fully expand
your own service, your savings are put
aside TO conserve that service, to main

business against accident, fire, change
of fashion. etc.
"Your first deposit of savings
should be in the hank where you have
the greatest confidence in the integ-

get it instantly when needed.
"YouI& next savings should be in
bonds OF the highest character that
you can likewise realize upon in

should be government bonds or securi-
ties with wide market. You should
also have investment in your own
home without mortgage, in your own
garden for health, pleasure and educa-
ton.
Next you should invest in the in
dustry that is most nearly allied to
your own and where you are sure it is

Justice HoehIing Decides
Against Mrs. Crichton
in Dispute

Mrs. Wesley Martin Stoner was
today placed in control and man
agement of the Woman's Welfare
Association Clinic, Eleventh and
L. streets northwest, by Justice
Hoehling of the District Supreme
Court who, in a memorandum
opinion handed down, held that
she was the duly elected presi-
dent of that organization.
The court at the same time
vacated an order issued Decem-
Der 1 enjoining Mrs. Stoner from
interfering with Mrs. Macpherson
Crichton in her management of
the associations affairs as its
president.
Mrs. Crichton's Position.
Mrs. Crichton claimed she had
been elected president of the
organization at a meeting held
December 2, 1924, which assertion
was opposed by Mrs. Stoner, who
claimed that the bylaws OF the
organization prescribe that only
members Of the board of directors
may be elected to the presidency
of the association and that Mrs.
Crichton was not a member of the
board.
After the injunction had been
issued against Mrs. Stoner u meet
ing Of the board of directors on the
second Monday in December last
elected her President and Mrs.
William Henry King, wife of Sen
ator King of Utah, corresponding
secretary. The court in his opinion
held that this election was legal
and that the officers elected then
must be recognized.
Effects of Controversy.
1t was also pointed out by JUS
tice Hoehling that the controversy
between the two factions had not
been for it's benefit, but had
worked decidedly against it. Practi-
cally the entire medical staff re-
tired and the places had to be
filled. Attorney Joseph T. Sherier
appeared for Mrs. Crichton and
Attorney John j. O'Brien repre-
scented Mrs. Stoner.
