"v. To Talk Through Telephone.
Scientific tests show that every
additional Inch of distance between
the llpa of the speaker and the mouth
piece of the telephone Is equivalent
to adding 120 miles of wire to the
line over which one Is talking. The
proper distance is about one inch if
farther than that, such sounds as "b,
p. d, t, f, a" are transmitted poorly.
If closer than one-half inch, nasal
sounds like *in" and "n" do not enter
4fee transmitter properly.
DUN'S rTRADE REVIEW
Holiday Biitiness Exceeded Ex
pectations in Many Instances.
Sonsltferlhg Far-Reaching Readjuffc
manta of Pact Year, ComiwerciaJ.,,,
Situation Is Reassuring. |§ig
New York, Dec. 28.—An abrupt fall
temperature in the East and else
where has provided about the only
important development, witli an Im
mediate bearing 011 the business situa
tion. Distribution of heavyweight
goods, which has been lagging In
difficult quarters, derived some stimu
lus from the colder weather, and a
further reduction of merchandise
stocks resulted. .Despite the restric
tive Influences present, holiday trade
has exceeded expectations In not a
few instances, and the fact that the
general turnover has not been of the
same magnitude as In some other
years, nor as profitable, Is not a reason
for discouragement. With the pur
chasing power appreciably curtailed
and economy being widely practiced,
a- contraction In retail demands was
clearly foreshadowed, and dealers
have been operating with recognition
of tlie diminished public consuming
capacity. The effect of this condition
naturally appears in wholesale and
and manufacturing circles. While
year end phases are not really repre
sentative of the status of business,
yet the existing caution in primary
channels merely marks a' continuance
of a policy which has been long evi
dent, and nothing suggests any early
change in the attitude of important
Interests. Hesitation is making ex
tensive future commitments largely
reflects the prevailing uncertainties
but progress along conservative and
wholesome lines Is more to be de
sired than expansion which is based
on speculative anticipations. Con
sidering the far-reaching readjust
ments of the last year and a half, the
commercial situation is reassuring,
and further Improvement in tho new
year may CQQcelvably .be witnessed.

CM. 1*20. We*t«m N»w»p»p»r Unloa.)
Life bad been a disappointment to
David, through no fault of liis own,
and it was not until Helen was called
from his side forever that David
learned his marriage had been a dis
appointment through lack of love.
He honestly thought that love Alley
his heart when he asked the girl to
marry him, and not merely, the re
spectful admiration that It waa. But
the few years the two spent together
(showed upon the young wife's part an
absence of sympathy and understand
ing which grew hard to bear.
Helen had been satisfied with her
hsuband's loyalty and concern for her
welfare, and had left little Robin to
his care.
As years passed, the boy proved a
disappointment, too. David, in his own
great patience, wondered from what
source his son inherited perverse ways.
Helen had been gentle and passive
Robin was alert and aggressive.
David labored at the profession his
parents had chosen tor him. The study
of law had been far from his wish, and
his lack of Interest in his work may
have accounted for its poor return.
Whenever David could he closed his
village office and went out to work
on the loved old farm he had managed
to buy. through economies. His one
hope now was to make of Robin the
man he bad hoped to be, a man known
In the world of men through achieve
ment
David sat long mourning over Rob
in's last discouraging prank, the boy
appearing to have been benefited by a
recent talk of David's had promised
better conduct.
Across the countryside Robin's hos
tility to school Instructors in general
was well known.
Various energetic maidens had given
np In despair the fight with Robin as
pupil other boys, they complained,
following his mischievous lead.
The last, a large and determined
Miss Price, Invited by Robin, for a
schoolward drive, was left stranded
in^ls auto nleasant but Isolated
spot, wlilie the boys, championed by
Roblu, took holiday.
When later he had returned Miss
Price to her boarding place, the In
dignant teacher resigned her position.
David had not spared the rod after
this procedure, and Robin, almost as
big as his father, quietly submitted.
Now, David volunteered to meet the
new teacher that he np.ight Impress
upon her the necessity'' of immediate
knowledge concerning Robin's first mis
demeanor, and his assurance of pun
ishment for the offense.
Poo# David's heart was heavy, but
Robin's unconcerned whistle stilt
sounded.
When David saw the new teacher he
was possessed of a desire to send ber
back at once.
Such a small creature this, to do bat
tle with young ruffians,^ girl of trust
ful eyes and radiant smile. Her name
was Nora Dean. She told him she'
had been left alone In the world and
loved both teaching and boys and girls.
"You are to tell me at once, remem
ber," David said,
uif
Robin further of­
fends and I will see that be Is pun
ished."
Miss Nora softly quoted a line:
"TIs better fac," she quoted, **to
rule by love than fear."1
When for several evenings after the
opening of the rural school Robin was
detslned after closing hour, David, ap
prehensive. sought in person, the cause.
It was not a formidable picture that
met his eye. Three cheerful culprits
sat, writing at their desks variously
improving sentences, which the little
teacher read aloud. And as Nora
read, she touched with gentle appeal
the lesson to each offender. When
David offered to drive her on her home
ward way, it was to big Robin that
she turned for assistance, In the clos
ing of the schoolhouse.
Somehow, thought of the little
teacher haunted David strangely, her
bright, persistent happiness seemed
unaccountably to torn his own shad
ows to naught.
Then one day Fob in came stumbllng
ly to rest his curly head boyishly
against his father's knee.
"She's—going," wailed Robin, "the
school men sny Nora can't stay be
cause—of our discipline. Our stand
ing's good, they say, but they can't go
the discipline. It's my fault," con
fessed Robin, "it's me."
That night David read a blotted
scrawl ready for mailing.
"School Board, Dear Sir," the hu
miliated Itobin had written, "if you'll
only let our teacher stay I will never
lo another discipline thing."
And that marked Robin's turning, In
the home where Nora now reigns. A
loved and loving mistress, her old rule
still holds good.
Tis better far," she tells Robin,
and Dnvid, her husband, "to rule by
love, than fear."
