THE OPPORTUNITY

For another big financial fu-
ture is approaching. In 1921 and
1922 advised several times in
the columns of this paper urging
the buying of stocks and bonds
to be held for a period Of five
years.
In the fall Of 1928 and sum-
mer Of 1929 I again advertised
urging the sale Of all stocks and
bonds bought on the five year
period and that my responsible
ity ended then and there.
Those who did this have
plenty Of money and made q
fortune. They praised Wall
Street as the greatest place in
the world possessing the golden
stairs to health, wealth and
happiness.
This time the situation Is diff
ferent, the market will be irreg-
ular and selective, more for those
who understand the market &C.
ton, future possibilities and
time.
