AN OLD MAID'S MONEY. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? THE HORSE WITH CLAWS. The State of Washington plans gigantic water-power Seattle development, nks in reflect genera! oerity in the Northwest. Those '9 banks will need bigger and capitalization , A . increased , ill ion, ric. when the power be A WO .dne will harness 700,000 horse power in the Bay of Fundy. The plan approved by voters and scien tific experts calls for one hundred millions. Power enough will be produced to suj y the whole of New England, and ten times one hundred million would not equal the value of such power. In waterpower and the electric force generated lies not the hope, but the CERTAINTY of prosperi ty beyond imagination. London is agitated because the great art collection of Lord Lever hylme, successful soap maker, is to be sold in New York City, not in London. This is said to mean that the art centre of the world has moved from London to New York, but that isn’t so. The MONEY centre has moved, and in 1925, as in the days of the Medici, art goes where money is. “How can I succeed ?"is ' answer ed by Juge Gary thus: "LISTEN. Let the other man do at least half the talking." Judge Gary, of course, puts hon esty ahead of all other qualities. And honesty is important, although Judge Gary knows more enterpris es have been wrecked by honest fools than by dishonest knaves. “The average man likes to hear himself talk too much,” says Judge Gary. Salesmen should remember that. Thousands of them talk themselves INTO a sale, then talk themselves OUT again. When you meet a customer remember the ad- Mixed Ktwin (telling of hunting trip)—! •hot at a squirrel and missed him, then I shot again and tilt him in the same place. COME TO WARRENTON fl <1 1 qH -i o <§ m -=r ~* ■==* k k mm ------e * ^ fflttKf fftfcr ** vice of Aristotle, who was the Judge Gary of his day. “Not too much, NOT TOO LITTLE.” A poor old maid of Massachu setts, called “poor,” not because she was an old maid, but because she spent fifty-six years in the in sane asylum, has just died. While she was in the asylum her small fortune increased to $2,000,000, to be divided now among seven nieces. “Money runs into iponey” rapid ly in this country, if you give it any sort of ah opportunity. What becomes of all* the money the people earn? Why does the average American die with about enough to bury him or her? The Deputy Attorney General of New York shows where some of the money goes. Bogus stock sates alone take $500,000,000 from the people of the State each year. Even that leaves a good deal of money for other swindlers to take. Evidence at the Shenandoah in vestigation shows that Command er Lansdowne, who understood fly ing, protested against taking his ship through the storm belt of the Middle West, and asked for a post ponement. Those knowing nothing about fly aviation ing, but unfortunately controlling in the United States, or dered him to go, in order to “im press certain State fairs on the way.” Because his advice was not taken. Lansdowne was killed. Who is RESPC .BLE for his death ? And how good a suit for damages have his widow and the other Shenandoah widows against those that sent their husbands to death ? The Museum of Natural History will soon present to your kind at tention a fossil horse, with claws instead of hoofs, dug up in Asia. According to scientists, this little creature, ancestor of the big horse of today with its hoofs, vanished from the earth long before men came here to need horses It will amaze you to read the various kinds of “despair” listed by Professor Glenn Frank, new president of the University of Wis consin. There is BIOLOGICAL fear, PSYCHOLOGICAL fear, POLITI CAL fear, ECONOMIC fea- HIS TORICAL fear, ADMINLSTRaT IVE fear, MORAL fear. These fears can all be boiled down into one word, “NEfcVES.” The only thing we need bn afraid of is our selves, our weaknesses. And for tunately, we die, and our fears with us. Then comes a new, un frightened generation. t Coapet Unheard by Many An estimate given In the foreign •fissions conference was that TT)>, nail the world has yet had the gospel at Jesus Christ preached to it. 9 Owff RiOfto* '§ 1 m mitt wm ’A* 7 1 YA Statement of Ownership, Manage ment, Etc„ of The Gibson Rec ord, as Required by Act of Con gress of August 24th, 1912.
