YOUTH—AND THE NEW LEADERSHIP By CRAIG B. HAZLEWOOD President American Bankers Associa tion Leadership is a picturesque word. With It, ono pictures Ilannlbal fighting his way through the passes of tho Alps— many resp e c ts Craig Q. Hazlewood than any of these. It ts the onrush of our business life. Our economic progress plunges ahead at a rate unheard of In the history of tho nations of tho world and every industrial and financial loader Is dally brought face to face with new and perplexing problems requiring the highest courage and Intelligence for their solution. Ninety billions a year, they tell us, this country Is now producing in new wealth. The rate of increase is even more staggering than tho amount. It is difficult, to say where It may lead us In oven ten or fifteen years. We are moving exceptionally fast. Our economic and industrial structure Is placing before us problems of greater and greater magnitude. Few men can see far ahead. Few are In complete control, for this Is a chang ing world, as evon the most inexperi enced business man will readily tes tify. Our methods of adjusting our selves rapidly to economic changes nnd of cooperating are far from per fect. What an opportunity tho leadership of five, ten or fifteen years from now presents! What an advonture it will be! What responsibilities It will lay upon tho broadest shoulders that may be found! This is tho challenge to leadership as I see It. In tho hands of the young men must rest the respon sibility for this leadership. Boys Who Reached the Pinnacles Business Is full of the romance of youngsters whose chief characteristic was working hard and keeping at It. There was a green farmer boy who de cided he would lather stand behind a counter than follow a plow. Ho seomod so obviously lacking In sales ability that for a time no merchant would hire him. He failed in his first position, and in his second his salary was reduced. He even agreed that he was a misfit —hut he stuck. Out of his first five stores, I believe, three failed. But he persisted and worked hard. And that boy, Frank W. Wool worth, became tho greatest retail merchant in the world with a storo In every city of eight thousand or more population In this country. There was another lad who clerked in a grocery store sixteen hours a day and studied mathematics in his odd moments. He became Interested In the doings of the steel plant whose em ployees traded at this store. He be gan to study steel and sought a posi tion in the plant. Ho carried a sur veyor's chain and drove stakes. At night he studied mathematics and en gineering. He did not despair. He could not be diverted. Ho kept the pressure on for seven years. And that boy, Charles Schwab, mastered the iron industry and became one of tho country’s groat industrial leaders. There was a lad who sold papers on a train. When he grew up, several million men and a score of billions of dollars of capital were given profitable employment through his inventions.

Leadership offers countless positions of varying opportunity, of which the highest pin nacles will moan almost unbearable responsibility In tho new ora. There will bo men with the fire and Iron to qualify even for these places. Such men must have had the very finest preparation and the most grueling tosts. Their reward will be tho attain ment of these highest pinnacles of achievement, and tho rendering of an Immeasurable service to their times. SCRUB BULL IS HALED TO COURT Placed on Trial for Hindering Development and Prosperity of Dairy Industry. Indicted for robbery, larceny, and a few ether such charges, Scrub Bull went on trial for his life at Laurel, Mississippi, recently. It seems that for some time people had suspicions that Mr. Bull was hindering the right and lawful development of the dairy industry, thereby “maliciously and wilfully lowering production and de creasing profits In the dairy business,’’ says the Bulletin of the American Bankers Association Agricultural Commission In commenting on the case. This, it says, was the first trial of its kind ever held in that section and was attended by several hundred peo ple. The jury, representing every vo cation within the boundaries of the Laurel trade territory, rendered a unanimous verdict of “guilty.’’ The death sentence was pronounced, “but during the night, before the sentence could be carried out, friends of the convict secretly spirited him away and he has not been seen since.” The arraignment came during the Milk Products Show sponsored by the banks of Laurel. People attending the show had the opportunity of also attending the bull’s “trial” and went away firmly convinced of the serious ness of lax and out-of-date methods In the pursuit, of dairying. The p.ujr- poses of both the Milk Products Show and trial were threefold, namely: to develop public sentiment for more and better Jerseys; to foster a more cooperative spirit for dairying and livestock growing, and to promote tick eradication. Tho banks of Laurel entered Into a cooperative arrangement In tholr ef forts for fostering agricultural devel opment and successful farming In the community, offering $2,105 as premi ums to the outstanding farm workers throughout the territory during 1929. An instructive booklet has been is sued, showing tho agricultural activity of the banks, together with announce ments of contests for farmers, exhibits in the hank lobbies and prizes offered. Good Qualities of Fruits Nutrition nnd Diet snys: “The npple lends among (he orchard fruits. It car ries smnll amounts of vltnmlnes A, B, and 0.

The acid content decreases as the sugar In creases. In like manner Its pectin, val uable In the formation of Jelly, de creases with the ripening process. The citrus fruits are next In Importance to the apple, nnd their culture Is be ing enormously Increased. Oranges come first They offer an excellent source of readily assimilable glucose, and for this reason orange Juice Is used when there Is necessity for quick assimilable carbohydrate which will throw the least burden on the digestive organs.
