PREDICTS GOOD YEAR IF CONFIDENCE HOLDS There is no good reason why this country should not have a reasonably successful business year, in the opinion of George M. Reynolds, the eminent Chicago banker. If the political and financial situation in Europe does not run into a catastrophe, this country should come along all right, provided—the investigating and the bestiming, at Washington, does not undermine public confidence. This latter, Mr. Reynolds regards as a very real and a very grave menace. He says that if they keep on at Washington us they have been for the last month or more "we shall have a wounded and perhaps a crippled or even a murdered business community." Mr. Reynolds makes this plea: "indict, try the guilty, yes. Convict them, but don't smirch every man within reach." Other observers are of the same opinion as Mr. Reynolds. The investigators and accusers do not seem to understand, as Mr. Reynolds says, that business rests on confidence "that if you destroy confidence, you inevitably and inescapably destroy business with it." Very trpe. Discrimination should be used. Let the vials of wrath be for the guilty, not for the innocent. Do not indict all business for the improper conduct of a comparatively few in business. Do not make blanket indictments. Do not shatter confidence of the people in the integrity of the business and industrial structure. With only careful, competent persons licensed to drive Mr. Reynolds says, that business rests on confidence "that if you destroy confidence, you inevitably and inescapably destroy business with it." Very true. Discrimination should be used. Let the vials of wrath be for the guilty, not for the innocent. Do not indict all business for the improper conduct of a comparatively few in business. Do not make blanket indictments. Do not shatter confidence of the people in the integrity of the business and industrial structure. With only careful, competent persons licensed to drive automobiles in California, the death rate in traffic would be lower. The muck-rake and the tar-bucket should not be emblems of the national political campaigns, this year.

PARAGRAPHS By ROBERT QUILLLEN The new-rich of the next generation may call it their boot-legacy. Cynicism is the bad taste in your mouth after you have gulped life too recklessly. The politicians are having a hard time. Soft soap no longer turneth away wrath. Modernizing religion to keep pace with civilization will mean leaving out most of the "don'ts." Every town has a few who delight in making speeches for charity and never see the collection plate. Sambo has his little troubles, but he doesn't spend 10 per cent of his income for permanent waves. The reason the pioneers were hardy was because they couldn't sit on a cushioned seat and howl for service. Make-up will hide an ugly skin, but apparently there is nothing you can do about a giggle. The funny part is that Barnum got that one-a-minute idea before "pre-war stuff" was invented. McGraw's men can't play golf, so now at last they have something in common with the great majority. Why should Congress modify the dry laws? Apparently there are adjectives enough to modify them. DINNER STORIES Sam, impaneled for jury service at a murder trial, had seemed a little too anxious to serve. "Do you know the accused?" he was asked. "Yasuh—dat is possub." DINNER STORIES Sam, impaneled for jury service at a murder trial, had seemed a little too anxious to serve. "Do you know the accused?" he was asked. "Yassuh—dat is, nossuh," he replied, realizing that if he made an affirmative answer he would be disbarred from serving. "Have you made up your mind as to his guilt or innocence?" "Oh, no, sub." "You think, then, that you could give his case a fair hearing?" "Yassuh," replied Sam. "Leastways, ez fair ez de old scamp deserves." The cook, Bridget, had announced her engagement to a frequenter at the kitchen, named Mike. But a year passed and nothing was heard of the nuptials. So, one day, the mistress inquired: "When are you to be married, Bridget?" "Indade, an' it’s niver at all, I’ll be thinkin’, mum,” the cook answered sadly. "Really? Why, what is the trouble?" The reply was explicit: ""Tis this mum. I won’t marry Mike when he’s drunk, an’ he won’t marry me when he’s sober."

Why should Congress modify the dry laws? Apparently there are adjectives enough to modify them now. Your fellow diners say bright things, even without cocktails, but they don't seem so darned bright. If a man who stands in with Big Business can't get a political following, it may be either suspicion or envy. The story that katydids make that noise with their bind legs seems much more reasonable after you observe jazz musicians in action. It is no longer considered a risque story if he leaves her in the last chapter and goes back to his wife. A free country is one in which you can hate a man of another faith; even if you don't practice your own religion. Jokes about these sophisticated times probably seem a lot funnier to those who haven't a 12-year-old daughter. Spring housecleaning isn't a success unless the furniture can be so rearranged as to trip friend husband three times the first night. Correct this sentence: "Now that it's out," said he. "I won't build another fire this spring whatever the weather does." Poise is the quality that keeps you calm while exhibiting socks holes to the shoe salesman. Five millions in the United States who can't read. But considering the average quality of modern writing they're not missing very much. SATURDAY, MAY THIRD, 1924 Subscription Rates—In N.

She is one of the women elected at the last non- POE'S GLEANINGS An idea of the enormous and meticulous reading of Poe can be grasped from a glimpse into discoveries he made in the realm of the printed page and set down in confused mass in a commonplace note book. Here are a few of them: "The Psalter of Solomon, which contains 18 psalms, is a work which was found in Greek in the library of Augsburg. It is supposed not to be Solomon's but the work of some Hellenistic Jew, and composed in imitation of David's psalms. The psalter was known to the ancients and was formerly in the famous Alexandria MS. The word Jehovah is not Hebrew. The Hebrews had no such letters as J. or V. The word is properly Yah, Wah, compounded of Yah, essence, and Wa, existing. Its full meaning is the self-existing essence of all things. The word translated 'slanders' in I Timothy ii. 2, and that translated 'false accusers' in Titus ii. 3, are 'female devils' in the original Greek of the New Testament. The 'Song of Solomon' throwing aside the heading of the chapters, which is the work of the English translators, contains nothing which relates to the Saviour of the Church. It does not, like every other sacred book, contain even the name of the Deity. Goldsmith's celebrated lines, 'Man wants but little here below nor wants that little long,' are stolen from Young who has 'Man wants but little, nor that little long'. Archbishop Usher, in a manuscript of St. Patrick's life, said to have been found at Louvaia as an original of a very remote date, detected several entire passages pennounced from his own writings. The noble simile of Milton's Satin with the rising sun, in the first book of 'Paradise Lost,' had nearly occasioned the suppression of that epic; it was supposed to contain a treasonable illusion. "There are about one thousand lines identical in the Illad and Odyssey. A comedy or opera by Andreini was the origin of 'Paradise Lost.' Andreini's 'Adamo' was the model of Milton's Adam. Of the ten tragedies which are attributed to Seneca (the only Roman tragedies extant), nine are on Greek subjects. It is a remarkable fact that during the whole period of the Middle Ages, the Germans lived in utter ignorance of the art of writing. It is remarkable that much of what Colton has stolen from Machiavelli was previously stolen by Machiavellii from Plutarch. Lipsius, in his treatise, 'De Supplicio Crusis,' says that the upright beam of the cross was a fixture at the place of execution, whither the victim was made to bear only the transverse arm. Consequently the painters are in error who depict our Saviour bearing the entire cost." "There are about one thousand lines identical in the Illad and Odyssey.
