ONE MAN'S GUESS
York has been so thick with gloom that we have had to carry
-lights at mid-day. Men talk about “thirty years of bad busi-
and “the collapse of the capitalistic system” and “the end of
gold standard^” etc.
Millions of dollars in cash are hidden in safety deposit vaults.
Since all the authorities have proved wrong, and one man’s judgment
e as good as another’s. I venture to publish my little guess as to
tt is and what is not going to happen.
It has been the record of history that times of great tribulation re-
aaftt in the removal of great abuses.
feid Lincoln in 1864: “At the end of three years’ struggle; the na-
•gaan’g condition is not what either party, or any man, devised or ex-
jKcted. God alone can claim it. Whither it is tending seems plain
God now wills the removal of a great wrong, and will that we of the
Kacth, as well as you of the South, shall pay fairly for our complicity
&a that wrong, impartial justice will find therein new cause to attest
.«rad. revere the justice and goodness of God.” N
Iff the Civil War had ended quickly it would have settled nothing. It
^dragged through four weary years, but it abolished slavery.
H the present depression had been easily cured no good would have
<EaBie of it. It is so bad, so world-Wide, that it is compelling the
jceples of every nation to realize the two fundamentals which were set
Scrth convincingly in Sir George Paish’s book, The Way to Recovery.
1. We are compelled to realize that the old-time insular, nationalistic
'Sfldnking is out of datfe in a world which has been shrunk to a neigh-
Inrhood. No nation can prosper unless all nations prosper. Tariffs
*zsd reparations and international jealousies are shackles on trade and
saean less prosperity for us all.
2L It trade is once freed from these shackles, including the worst,
wfoich is international suspicion, the future has possibilities beyond our
■widest drehms. The consumptive power of humanity is unlimited.
l in the most advanced nations the standard of living is still low
are potential markets enough to keep all our resources employed,
to make all of us well to do.
3* therefore, am optimistic, not because this is a minor depression but
it is so very serious, so world-wide,-so packed with suffering
everybody.
it is finished we shall be compelled to effect international
reforms that we never should have cansidered in prosperous
when we do get business going again our prosperity will amaze us.

Miff AGAIN TAKES
THE SPOTEIGHT
Although thrift is always in order
and always popular with some, it was
forgotten by many when prosperity
was riding the peak. The last year or
two has served to restore thrift back
to its place of great importance until
now it is uppermost in the minds of all.
MAKE 1932 AN OUTSTANDING
THRIFT YEAR
m your life. We don’t mean to be
miserly—spend for what you need and
help others, but be thrifty and save the
surplus.
We invite you to save with us and
enjoy the peace of mind that goes with
safety and the advantages that come
from helpful co-operation.

t YOUR BABY *
p— ' ■ >
Now let’s not talk about vitamines and calories and modified milks
and adenoids and all that; leave it to the specialists to theorize on the
fine-spun; let’s talk about the baby—YOUR baby.
First: Baby is supremely selfish. He’s too busy attending to his
own affairs to bother about the comfort of any one else—and, he's ex
actly right; if more people attended to their own business we’d soon
have a better race of peopled i
Second: A baby is just a digestive tract, an air compartment, ahd
a minute, nervous bundle, with a water-cooled motor. So long as he
is comfortable he will not kick up a row. No respectable baby will
tolerate a safety-pin boring into his umbilical region, nor will he fail
to resent rough seams that grind his arm-pits or groins; remember, if
he is comfortable he will be peaceful. No baby enjoys howling any
more than you do. Treat him with sense.
Third: Baby will cease feeding when he has enough, and he’ll do
it every time; but don’t urge him to take more; whenever he lets go is
the instant for closing the seance. Of course he’s, just like you, and
would over-stuff himself just as you do; then trouble comes. The
keenest of judgment is in knowing when to stop.
Lastly: Maybe you have one of those cute, idiotic Pomeranians; if
to, turn it over to the maid, and take care of baby yourself. It’s a re
ligious duty of yours to care for your own flesh and blood. A worth
while parent will entrust jfhe baby £o no alien hands.
