More than likely the senator’s line o f reasoning will prove correct. Some o f the b ig industries have been hard hit by the cheek in agricultural buying power, For instance the makers o f farm machinery have seen their business decline, and when the interests o f big business are affected one may reasonably expect inquiry into the cauce and definite effort to bring some measure o f relief. Legislation, o f course, never can overcome economic law, nor can Congress cure all the ills o f the farmer, but it can aid in wiping out the differential between 80 cents wheat and ten cents a loaf for bread. Even the moat callous of capitalists realizes that this situation cannot continue. Fundamentally, o f course, the cure o f this ill will come when the grain growers realize the necessity o f wiping out the hundred and one middlemen who gobble up three-fourths o f the pie. Eventually they must get down to real com­ modity marketing through some non-profit government //agency. .■■ “Perhaps,” says Senator Capper, “ this will be a revival o f the U. 3. Grain Corporation, or an extension o f the work o f the Bureau of Markets, or it may mean the building of a new federal marketing agency.” This is getting down to bed rock. I f something o f this sort be undertaken by the government, plus a drastic revision o f the transportation act, including repeal of the so-called guarantee, and recap­ ture clause* the International Harvester Company may find its business improving, and this will make a stronger appeal in sgme quarters o f Washington than the thought that such legislative changes will aid the men who feed the nation. It must be remembered, however, if any move is to be made In the way o f co-operative marketing it will have to come from the large wheat growers themselves. No one more than the members o f the farm bloc realizes this to be the fact. There is danger in the belief that Congress can be a cure-all, Perhaps the best cure will be the education o f the east. I f the east once realizes-how crippling the farmer affects life o f the Harlem flat dweller our agricul­ tural population, which means a seventy billion dollar in­ dustry employing one-third o f American man power, would receive more consideration. Every large merchant in New York made a thorough teat of his advertising during the pressmen’s strike. They got out circulars by the million, thoy produced their own advertisements and obtained wide­ spread distribution. "When ihe strike wn3 broken they swarmed back Into the newspaper columns with larger space tlinn they ever had used. The Btrike was ipore beneficial to the newspaper proprietors than they realised. It demonstrated the selling power of newspaper advertising. Local taxes are the best of all Investments. Every dollar spent adds Store than a dollar to the value of the home—when it is spent thought­ fully. .

The die was cast'. After live years of married life she was leaving her husband. And she thought of the vain regrets of those live years, ami had the in­ tense desire that sac couid try once more. It was too late,; Everything had been arranged. Levering and she were on board the tram, bound for Washington on their way south. At that moment Somers was approaching the little town on the local, a return­ ing commuter. lie would return to find ills home dcsomte, and the letter Esther hud left l'ul 'him. To udd to the poignancy, the train on which Estiier anti Levering were speeding south passed within a hun­ dred yards of their home. The station from which they had ’started—to avoid observation—was 12 miles away. Levering bad met her and motored her over there in ids car. Now they were on their way, and already the familiar view of the home town was-coming in sight. j Somers was almost due. Perhaps their train would pass him. And Esther looked at the man' be­ side her, letting her hand lie passive In his, und instead of the deep love she had thought she felt for him she was conscious of intense revulsion. Levering had been Somer’s best- friend. He had grossly betrayed him. She tried to picture the scene when her husband got home and found her letter. He would be stunned by it. Al­ though they had never got along well together, lie hud not dreamed hiswife wottld eVer leave him—leust of all with another man. He would not be­ lieve it. , What would lie do then? Would lie start In pursuit, to execute a dra­ matic vengeance upon them? She did not know. She bad never understood her husband. : But she felt guilty, guilty, and she looked at Levering beside her with dismay and disgust and horror. Was it too late? Could sh,e not yet reverse her decision? If she had not left that letter behind her any plausi­ ble excuse might have sufficed for easy-going, unsuspicious Dick. . Now it was liopeless. Somers was almost due at the station. That must be his train whistling. Suddenly there came a grinding of the brakes, shouts, confusion.- The roof of the compartment seemed to be failing in on her. There was a mo­ ment of hdrrar—then Esther knew no more. She awoke to find herself in the debris of the wreck. Hands were raising her. She was lifted to her feet. She had been momentarily stunned, bpt was otherwise uninjured. Seeing tills, they left her to attend to the others. She leaned, sick and dizzy, against ' un end of u carriage. What was that form Hint they were carrying out? Leverir l . Stone dead I She east one glance of horror at the mangled body, and then turned away; A train luid run into them—the lo­ cal, she heard somebody say, She lis­ tened without comprehending, but, lift­ ing her eyes, she saw her home, her own home, a hundred yards away. The two trains had collided almost Immediately in front of it. •Some one was touching her arm. She looked at him vacantly; she rec­ ognized one of the neighbors. “We've. found your husband Mrs. Somers," he said. “He Isn’t badly hurt." He drew her away. She saw Dick silting up on a stretcher. One of hte arms had been roughly bandaged. “Hello, old girl I" he saluted her. “Not badly damaged I” And then of a sudden she realized all. It had been Dick's local with widen the express had collided. Lev- ering's death had wiped out all the past, and Dick imagined that she had come down to find him. No one had seen her leave the town in Levering’s motor. “ We'll take him straight to the hos­ pital, Mrs. Somers," some one was saying, • She breathed a prayer of thankful­ ness. There was only the letter now, and that could be destroyed. Shefeli upon her knees beside her husband. “Oli, It’s so merciful," she sobbed. ‘Tm glad, Dick, I’m glad, glad!"

HtNIUDS IN NEWSPAPERS Banker Teg* national Associa­ tion They Ire Essential Aids to Bufttatss Building* PR ES EN TS PRACT ICA L P LAN Saving* Bank Division of th* Amerf- can B*nk«e* A**eolation Offers Prepared Newspaper Advertls- - log Strvtoe to Cover a Year’s Campaign. i t ! < More newspaper advertising by banks as a business builder was strongly urged at the Teeent conven­ tion of the American Rankers Asso­ ciation by W. R, Morehouse of the or­ ganization’s Savings Bank Division. He backed up bis plea with definite action to stimulate advertising by savings banks by calling the attention of the members to a prepared news­ paper advertising service developed by his division comprising copy to meet ineir requirements for * year’s advertising schedule. “It is my Ann conviction that banks can use newspaper advertising with great success,” Mr. Morehouse said. “Newspapers go into the homes—by- their use as a medium the people of -ai whole community may be reached in' a single day,. Because a bank cannot directly trace a large volume of new business to newspaper advertising decs not proye that.the medium is in­ effective as a business-builder. “The fact that there are certain kinds of newspaper advertising which do not produce good results ought not to brand the medium -as Ineffective, any more than the fact that because a certain booklet or certain buiness- building letter fails to pull would war­ rant you In branding all booklets and all letters as non-productive modiums. How to Advertise “Newspaper advertising must be at­ tractive and easily read if it is to produce good results. If the subject presented is not to the point, is too deeply Involved for the average mind • to grasp readily, Is too full of big and uncommon words, it is only natural that it will, not he read. If bank ad­ vertising Is to accomplish its purpose:, it must bo very simple. “Discuss only the ■subjects which wilt make it easy for the public to patronize your bank. Advertise your bank, its financial stability, its officers, directors and Stockholders •and you will build prestige and strengthen pub­ lic confidence in your institution. Enumerate the various kinds of ser­ vice your bank is'prepared to render. It has been my experience that the public is on the lookout for informa­ tion about banks, banking methods and the kinds Of service rendered by bunks. For quick results 1 am & firm believer in sticking to subjects which haf0^Ijlfecrbeafing on banks, bank­ ing. methods and service, until the public has become better Informed *about banks and the wide variety of services rendered by them. . A New Plan ' “If you have nor been successful with newspaper advertising, try this plan. Confine your advertising within ihe scope of banking and especially enumerate the various services which your bank is prepared to offer. Boil down every advertisement to one hun­ dred words or less, prolerabiy less. Use headings which arouse interest at a glance. For example, a head 'IN­ TEREST FROM DATE’ will inspire ; action on the part of persons with Idle funds to deposi’ because interest starts from the time savings accounts are opened. A heading 'PROTBC-| TION FOR YOUR VALUABLES’ will inspire action on the part of persons in need ob protection." \[j [ty t y r -H A K u t iiim j _ JM U .tX .lJ.
