came the information that the Kellys

There were fears that Kelly might

REAL MONEY"
What do we mean by money?
According to the dictionary. money
Is anything customarily used as a
medium of exchange and a standard
of value"
But a definition tells us little of the
real nature OF money. The best way to
understand its place in the scheme
of things is to trace it from its early
beginnings down through the various
stages of its evolution until it emerges
in the forms in which We see 1t in our
everyday life-the 50-cent piece. the
IS bill, the check for $40 on our local
bank
For money Is not an invention It
Is a mechanism which has developed
through the ages in response to the
natural instinct of men for con.
stantly greater variety Of the good

Barter Range Limited. =.
The earliest manifestation Of this
sense We know II, however, could never
have developed under barter. for the
possibilities OF exchange were limited
on every hand.
The man who had ivory to sell and
needed cloth was unable to make an
exchange until he found some one who
not only had cloth to sell, but also was
in the market for ivory. Moreover. he
was handicapped by the perishability
and lack of portability Of the commod-
tiles Of exchange That is why the
earliest caravan routes were confined
to the transportation Of compact. ex-
pensive and non-perishable things,
such as spices silks, precious stones.
1t was inevitable that out Of this
hit-or-mis form Of exchange some
commodity which was desired for itself
and which was widely distributed
should find general acceptance as a
medium of doing business and as
measure of value.
When this stage was attained-we
may call it the stage Of transition from
barter to money-markets were broad
ened measurably. The seller was no
longer limited to doiEg business with
some one who wanted what he had at
the moment. He had access to all
buyers within his reach, today, tomor-
row. q month hence.
Food First Standard.

and ornaments. and as food was the
primary need, and cattle constituted

Whoever would deliver the blow
would get the credit. Mr.. Farley IS
not the kind of man to let any politi-
cal credit lie around loose.
1t is good politics.
The first rule of political leader
ship is to find out where the people
are going and then jump up in front

The bankers are groaning again.
They cannot see why Jesse Jones keeps
harping on the idea of forcing them to
issue preferred stock. They do not
need more capital, or at least they
think they do not. That makes them
fearful of the letters Jones has been
sending them lately. gently limiting they
had better come into the r. F. c. and
take some money for preferred stock.
The explanation of Jones tactics
probably has a root deeper than the
bankers suspect. The idea of this ad-

been to promote unified banking
