Rademacher, Pastor. “Did you hear about the terrible thing that happened to Mrs. Thomp son. Aunt Emmy!” asked Maud. "It seems that a man came to see her to ask her to Invest Ln some securities hts flrm wss selling, and she said she did not have any ready money. Ho asked her if she had some Liberty Bonds, and she showed him her one Liberty Bond, a thousand dollar oae. He told her that there were a number of counterfeit bonds about and upon examining her bond said there were some marks that Indicated it might bo spurious. Poor Mrs. Thompson near ly fainted and begged the stranger to tell her wbat to do about It. "He told her not to be unduly alarm ed. that there was a chance that he was mistaken. His flrm was Indig nant, he said, about the counterfeit bunds that had been foisted on the public and intended to do everything In its power to run down the culprits. They employed a man who was an authority on counterfeits and be could tell in a minute If her bond was good or not. 8o Mrs. Thompson let him have the bond to take to his office tor examination.’’ “And, of course, he didn't bring It back,** commented Aunt Emmy. “Worse than that!" Maud went on. "He said that, being a widow, she should be very careful in her business dealings, so he made her sign what ho called a receipt, although she didn’t read It About a week after his visit she received a number of shares of stock that she says she never heard of and certainly never bought So she wrote to the investment house tbo stock came from and said she thought a mistake had been made. Imagine her surprise when she was informed that she had signed an order for those shares of stock In exchange for a $1,- 000 Liberty Bond! "First she was coming right over to see you and then decided not to, be cause she felt ashamed when she re membered that you had warned her about being taken in, now that Mr. Thompson is dead and she has to han dle her own business affairs. My brother Tom says he thinks nothing can be done about It, as the receipt bearing her signature la really an or der for the stock.“ “I am sorry to hear this, Maud,“ said Aunt Emmy. “What a pity she did not take her bond to the bank to have It examined if that slick sales man aroused suspicions in her mind as to its genuineness. She would bare been dealing with people of Integrity, whom she could trust absolutely. And yet she allowed herself to be duped by a perfect stranger! “Yet there must be a lot of that sort of thing when you consider that over $600,000,000 a year is being taken away from the honest people in the I United States by stock swindlers, if the people would only learn to trust the guidance of their financial affairs to their banks and never sign any thing they have not read and do not understand, there would be less un happiness about money matters.“— Anne B.

President W. C. Gordon of the State Bank Division, American Bankers Association, de clares in a recent communication to the thirteen thousand members of the division. He seeks to enlist their Interest in the work of improving the marketing of farm products. “The farmer today finds himself far removed from bis consumer-cus tomer by a long line of Intermediate agencies, which often leave him tn a position of disadvantage as an In dividual producer.” Mr. Gordon says. “It Is. therefore, not strange that he should seek to apply to agriculture those principles of production and distribution found successful in In dustry. His rightful ambition is to make, where feasible, a general ap plication of successful business ex perience to the marketing of agricul tural products. Commanding the best economic thought of the business world, agriculture undoubtedly stands on the threshold of a new era. La lieu of fantastic panaceas, agricultur al welfare—which, after all. Is the Nation's welfare—has need of a sane, long range program that ie at once practical, constructive and economi cally sound." He goes on to call attention to the "long view prdkram suggested for ag ricultural distribution” at Washing ton by the Agricultural Conference, irging study of It CO-OPS There are many small cooperatives throughout the United States, han dling wool, peanuts, watermelons, strawberries, beans, syrup, and other products The government reports that there are at least 10.006 local co j operative organizations ta the United 1 States. The Iowa Fleece and Wool Growers' Association does an annual ' business of $2.SSfl.25O: the Ohio Sheep and Wool Growers, $1,500,006; the Oregon wool growers, $506.006; Many a man’s idea of helping while the New York.
