PAGES FROM LIFE

A life insurance official in q
recently printed magazine article
stated: ut has been said, whether
true or not, that ninety percent OF
all estates of 5000 and over are
dissipated in seven years." In this
connection a new booklet, entitled
Pages From Life" published By
the Mercantile Trust & Deposit
Company OF Baltimore is of especial
interest.
The booklet contains stories o.
what actually happened to a number
of estates where money was left
outright to men and women mex.
perienced in the handling of sums
of money. The stories are briefly
told but between the, lines the
reader senses how, in the instances
related, large sums of money placed
in the hands OF young people brought
misfortune and sometimes tragedy
how the financial advice of well
meaning but misinformed friends
plus the wiles of INSCRIPTIONS stock
promoters, caused the widows por
lions, to dwindle away.
The moral of Pages From Life
is that the accumulation of an estate
should be followed by taking proper
steps TO conserve it.

1850, says r. F. Hale, who is
representing the United States De-
partment OF Agriculture and the
University of Maryland Experiment
Station in study OF farm economic
conditions OF half century OF
more ago.
1t is interesting, says Mr.. Hale, to
speculate on the economic progress
measured by these two extremes in
meeting labor conditions on the
tarm. How would the economic
output of an able-bodied slave, fol
instance, compare with the work
performed by modern tractor

questions involved, how many mod

In 1850, however, there was no
,hoice and the. plantation owner
listed his slaves as part OF his
valuable assets. An inventory of al.
personal property on the tobacco
plantation OF land owner In the
southern part of Prince George S
county listed the following slaves
according to their age and value in
1850: rom, age 81, $3.50; Jim,
age IA, $500; Nell, age rs, $3.50;
and Minnie, age 3, $50.
Other interesting sidelights, show
.ng the economic progress of the
past hrty or one hundred years, are
expected to result from the study
Of farm prices in Maryland during
earlier days. Those who have
knowledge of old farm records, ac-
count books or diaries containing
prices, will assist materially in the
study by notifying r. f. Hale.

"CRITICISM' AND ABUSE OF
AMERICA BY AMERICANS

ABROAD

Americans should realize that {
great deal of so-called criticism
current today, which in fact is
nothing but abuse of America
American institutions or American
groups, and extravagant statements
made in opposition to the policy OF
Prohibition are taken seriously
abroad. The Indian Witness, OF
Lucknow, India, says that:
1.-THE indiscriminate denunciatioI
of western civilization, in which
some writer's in Europe and Amer
lea have been indulging since the
war, is producing some unanticipated
results. A moulvi of our acquaint-
ance speaks of H. L. Meneken as
seeing American life through the
eyes of true Moslem. We think
this moulvi has little in common
with Americas premier native viii
Iifier, except his dislike of evan
gelical Churches, but he feels such a
sense of comradeship on this one
account that he confers upon him
the honor, probably unwanted, OF
recognition as Moslem seer.
