ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
OUTLOOK is PROMISING

Operations of leading electrical equip
ment manufacturers are being main
tanned at levels which compare favor
ably with activity of q year ago, and
production for the first six months Of
1880 should exceed that Of the cor
responding period Of 1929, according
TO q current survey by the Standard
Statistics Co. of New York, which con-
tinues in part:
1T Is unlikely that the abnormal
activity Of the last half OF 1929 VIII
be duplicated this year, although pro-
duction for the entire 12-month period
should approximate that of last year.
Similarly, profits are being well
maintained and should compare salts
factorily with last years record results
Earnings outlook over the next several
years is particularly promising, and
both production and profits Of leading
companies should score continued SUBJ
stantial gains"

several markets. The percentage Is not
high, but 1t is at least moving IN the

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DIR. Louis E. Bisch-

Most Of the failures and dis
appointments as well as much
of the unhappinesS of life are
caused by Ignorance.
If we understand ourselves
thoroughly, if we could realize
how this or that mode of be.
havior would influence us. If
we could be expert in interpret
ing events, if we could always
understand the relationship be-
tween cause and effect-if, in
short, we but possessed suf-
ficient knowledge-life would
be easier to control and easier
to bear.
But we lack such informa.
ton. We are ignorant.
Ignorance is to blame when
a woman marrieS the wrong
man, or a man the wrong
woman.
If men and women under
stood each other better, if they
knew how to profit by the ex.
perience of others, the divorce
courts would not be the busy
places they are.
If mothers had more knowl.
edge Of motherhood, and
fathers were better posted on
the duties of fatherhood, fewer
children would grow UP unpre.
pared for the battle of life.
Why do so many fail in bust
ness?
Why are not. more men and
women more efficient than
they are?
Because they are not well
equipped for the jobs they
undertake. Because they are
ignorant Of the tasks they wish
to make careers.
Workers are often dissatisfied
Is not the cause frequently
ignorance?
If they knew their jobs bet
ter. or knew what work they
really would like best-if they
were not ignorant Of what they
can do or want to do-disap-
pointment would soon disap-
pear.

Listen, World!
BY Elsie Robinson

It is said of Clemenceau that
he loved many women, but his
friendship was given only to a
few. And the same might be
said of all mentor love comes
often between men and women.
but only rarely do they achieve
friendship.
Nor is this because women are
incapable of friendship, though
many have said that they are.
Between themselves WON e n
have strong and beautiful
friendships. But with men it is
different. It is different be-
cause the needs of men and
women are different.
A woman's deepest need is for
children. She may deny this.
She may protest that she
doesn't even like children. But
her denials cannot change the
fact that. physically and emo
tionally, she was made for
motherhood and that only
through motherhood can she
fulfill herself So it is inevitable
that she regard every man as a
potential father. It is also in
evitable that she should regard
him as a baby. For every man
was once some woman'S baby.
And all men, to all women, are
still helpless little boys. They
may love those little boys-and
need them greatly. But they
can never take them quite
seriously. y
So, though on the surface a
man and a woman may be
friends and equals. they have
entirely different attitudes to-
ward each other. Either uncon
sciously, or with deliberate in.
tent, the woman becomes a wife.
mother to the man. Becomes
poSsesSive and proprietary. Pets
and Furnishes him. Insists upon
being personal when he wants
to be imperSonal. And when he

But naturally these tactics are
incomprehensible to a man. He
hasn't the same need to be a

be a mother. He isn't always

his natural vocation. It was
hung on him. He belongs to
the trail..she belongs to the

So there's the split. For
friendship, with it's freedom, is
a habit of the trail-but because
of that same freedom, it is an
enemy to the hearth. And the
