After a superheated meeting, the
school commission of Chicago re
scinded Its former election of a male
superintendent of public schools, and'
reinstated Mrs. Young lint it was
far from uiiunimoiiB and harmonious,
some members going so fur as to
Ray that her usefulness was impalr-i
ed by the strife (hut had been en
gendered, and others Insisted that
, tier election was caused by a spasm
of the wmiian'M elubs that had no
Interest In sehouls, and only cham
pioned Mih. Young because she was
a woman. And thus the matter rests
with a possible recourse to the courts
for final solution and settlement.
One good resolution to make, Is

TO TDK IUNIXESS MEN'
OK IIOSEBI'IU;
Gentlemen:
This is the time of the year when
the average business man has a de
sire to find out exactly how he stands
financially, consequently he arranges
and in some sort of a manner takes
an inventory of his assets and liabil.
Hies, but quilo often even the beat of
business men overlook one very vital
nt,i,lt j considering their liabilities
and that Is where they have eilhei'j
signed a bond for some trumds orj
have asked some of their friends to
sign an undertaking for them. This
is a liability and one that cannot
be reckoned in dollars and cents
when It Is signed.
You as a business man have by
your thrift and wisdom obtained
your present position in the world
of finance and society. You may
have at some time in the past re
quested a friend to sign his name to
a bond for you to guarantee an un
dertaking over which he had no con
trol and in which he had no Interest.
While the monetary risk may have
been Blight, or altogether absent, by
accepting this favor you have bowed
your neck to the yoke, and may ut
any time he harnessed to that plow
which has turned under the sod of
oblivion many u fair field of ousl
uess accomplishment. Hecause, it
follows as the night the day, that
service demands return In kind; you
must do for others as they do for
you Hy this one act you may have
imperiled your business, destroyed'
your credit and peace of mind, and
Jeopardized the inheritance of your
loved ones after you aro gone
Inspect the records of our county
and you will find the names of quite
a number of business nion of this
city and county who have signed
bonds for their friends. Inspect the
civil docket and you will find w'ne.e
others have paid almost wilh their
blood similar bonds. IS YOUIt
NAM K Tl IlCIt K?
Sitting beside your wlfo, the part
ner of your struggles and success,
In the beautiful homo, tho realUa
iKin of early dreams, happy in your
prosperity and the companionship of
t!e bright sons and fair daughters
''ho bless your mature years, you
rejoice to see them enjoy the bene
fits of society, schools, and colleges
denied your youth. Tho picture Is
attractive beyond words. Will you
cast over it tho shadow of evil possi
bility? Ulsk tho sending of the he
j'Hcii wife and children out to face
l!'e vorld without comforts and ed i,
cati'ui, and your guidance, and rissk-

cd for what? For the paltry price
of a corporation Burety bond whtc-a1
the brains of astute business men J
evol"e foi your protection and mine, j
Have I magnified the danger? No,
I have stated cold hard facts and 1
you know it. The proofs are found In ,
pitiless court records, broken hf.rts;
and shattered homes. "The mere
matter of form" hazy of outline and'
i emote, has grown Into a present do
vouring monster to be satisfied only
with hard earned dollars.
Will you assume this risk either
directly by signing a bond for anoth
er, or indirectly by asking him to sign
for you, or will you send the busi
ness to me and have that bond writ
ten in the Aetna Accident and Ina
bility Company at a nominal cost?
