which was apparently taken off that

ning's festivities. The malefactors

tition is aparently getting keener

Believe It,

A New York banker has figured
out that if six copper coins recently
unearthed, bearing the date of 600
yars B C, had been placed at com
pound interest since coined, the re
turns would have been immense.
How much? Well, it's past the
power of comprehension. The Am
erican value of these coins was only 6
cents, yet they would have earned at
compound interest during the past
2,500 years a ball of gold 62 times as
large as this earth, so the New Yoker
says.
