"Business is business," but men are men,
Loving and working, dreaming;
Toiling with pencil or spade or pen,
Roistering, planning, scheming.
"Business is business" but he's a fool
Whose business has grown to smother
His faith in men and the Golden Rule,
His love for a friend and brother.
"Business is business" but life is life ;
Though we're all in the game to win it,
Let's rest sometimes from the heat and strife
And try to be friends a minute.
Let's seek to be comrades now and then
And slip from our golden tether;
"Business is business," but men are menA
And we're all good pals together!
The Caxton.

INSURANCE ANNUAL STATEMENT
'CULTURE BY CONTACT'
Garfield used to say that his idea of a liberal education was a
student sitting on one end of a log and Mark Hopkins on the other.
Ann Arbor will pay Robert Frost, the poet, $5,000 next year for per
forming this sort of serviee, for the students of the University of
Michigan a venture upon which the Tacoma Ledger thus comments :
This latest venture in education, sponsered by Dr. Marion Leroy
Burton, president of the university, proposes to spread culture through
the medium of personal contact rather than class-room work. If the
experiment proves successful it will be repeated in coming years, next
year a painter being chosen for the post, perhaps, or a sculptor or a
scholar.
The announcement brings up the old! question, of "liberal" aduca
tion of the European style, where the students "absorb" learning from
their professors, as opposed to the Americanized university where reg-
ular classroom work is an essential. It has caused a stir among peda
gogues. Opinion is divided as to the probable value of the experiment, some
contending that the university and its students would gain more if the
poet did regular classroom work, while others maintain that it would
he a "stroke of genius" if some university would adopt the. plan as a
"definite policy."
While the wisdom of the latter course appears doubtful, the value
of culture gained by association has proved itself over and over again,
both in this country and Europe. The personality of some particular
professor remains with the student long after the subject on which he
lectured is forgotten.

THE ARTFUL ADVERTISER
A local advertiser 'offered his church free hymn books if they
would consent to the insertion of his advertising. They accepted the
offer and got the hymn books.
On the following Sunday the minister announced: "Brethren
and Sisters, we will use our new hymn books this morning. I want
to say that the gentleman who so kindly donated them must have
experienced a change of heart. I have looked through the fly-leaves
in both the front and back and nowhere do I find a single advertise
ment. Let us sing hymn No. 67."
Turning to the hymn he read aloud:
"Hark, hear the heavenly voices ring,
Bunkem's pills are just the thing.
Angel's voices, soft and mild.
Two for man and one for child."
OTHERS CAN PLAY AT TARIFF GAME
High tariffs beget high tariffs. The eyes of other nations are
upon America. The schedules in the Fordney bill have spurred sev
eral countries into planning retaliation. Even Holland proposes to
depart from her free trade principles in order to hit back at others
who propose raising high tariff walls against her products.
Britain is particularly wide awake and appears determined to
east off her long-cherished free trade policies in order to protect
herself against other nations that are rushing into protectionism.
The two dominant facts which high protectionists in this country
should bear in mind are:
. First That the United States must find foreign outlets for more
products than any other nation in the world ; and,
Second That foreigners now owe us some $14,000,000,000 and
can pay us only in goods.
High tariff walls here will only incite the raising of high tariff
barriers in other countries against the inflow of our goods, and make
it impossible for this eountry to collect from foreign debtors. Forbes
Magazine.

The Laws of Economy
An apple bounced off Newton's head and inspired him to evolve
the Law of Gravity. ..The advertisements in this paper can give you
no less forcefully the inside workings of the Laws of Economy.
As sure as the apple hit Newton, the advertisements have a per
sonal message of economy for you. m
Merchants tell you of their bargains through advertisements.
Almost every new opportunity is offered through an advertise
ment. Practically every unusual buy is advertised.
You save time and trouble by choosing what you want and
where to get it from the advertisements instead of hunting all over
town.
You save money by keeping up with every opportunity to get
full value in buying. -
