<T oday Money Talking Gaily. - Looks Like a Boom. * Armistice Day Dio. 6. Good Joke, Bad Politics. By ARTHUR BRISBANE. _/ Money is talking on the stock ticker very cheerfully, telling the whole world thnt money is pleased with the election and the present condition of things in general. Pity the poor broker. His sor row is caused by too much prosper ity. Since the election of President Coolidge he has sold on the New York Stock exchange 10,000,000 shares of stock. Yesterday’s sales Were 2,300,000 shares. May wheat went to $1.00 yester day. Many farmers, more inter ested in profits than in theories, will feel better satisfied than ever with the election. Even better news. Since wheat farmers were doing pretty well al ready, is the sharp upturn in cot ton prices. A fair price for cotton As essential to sound prosperity. ^ Everything seems to be going up, cotton, wheat, stocks, even the price of seats on the stock ex change. That hopped up $10,000 yesterday. And steel orders are going up with the rest. It's a boom or many are mistaken. Foreign exchanges went up, par ticularly all the European and South American currencies made dew high records for the year. The •olid English pound, up 3',i cents to $4.63, is almost at par, with the Yankee dollar. L p* And “call money,” that stock r** speculators use in their operations, cost only 2l/i per cent. Every thing about the stock exchange Was “almost too good to be true.” Armistice day once more, six years since the shouting, laughing and weeping of November 11, 1918. To boys and girls in their ’teens that great war is only a vague real ity. Soon it will be talked about (is we talk of the civil war, or the revolution. Forgetting is the eastiest thing that men do, and that’s a blessing. Th* world's financial recovery is •low. Here in America, thanks to Secretary Mellon, we have been cutting down our debts. But in Europe they owe seven and one fealf billions more than they .did When the war ended. Worse than all money loss is the i — , . A Gleamy Mass of Hair 15c “Danderine” doe?

No financial genius can make up for that. However, the world recovered even from the ‘‘black death,” infin itely more destructive than the worst of all wars. It will recover completely from that war. Ameri cans on Armistice day should make up their minds to keep out of the next, and all future wars. The way to do that is to keep ready for anything. The democrats are “analyzing the causes of the defeat.” It doesn't need much analyzing. The democrats in their convention kicked out several million voters in a religious discussion, and then se lected the lawyer of J. Pierpont Morgan & Co. to lead “the embat tled hosts of democracy.” That was a good joke, but not good politics. Some learned democrats say that nominating W. J. Bryan's brother for vice president was a handicap. They are like the man with the awful headache who had swallowed two lobsters, two quarts of cham pagne and a small glass of butter milk. He blamed the buttermilk. The sons of Charles H. Sabin and C. S. Mellen, wise bankers, start work as clerks in a depart ment store at Albany. There is no better business education than de partment store training. It teaches merchandise, finance and, above all, human nature. If you have an intelligent boy or girl, interested in business, the department store is the best place for a start. Little countries make up in cour age what they lack in size, money and population. There is Aus tralia, right under the shadow of Japan and Asia’s thousand millions, defying the Japanese, forbidding them to land on Australian soil. And now Mexico, in her quarrel with the British, not only recalls consuls and diplomats from Great Britain, but closes up consulates in Canada and Australia. The First Ward Democratic club of Jersey City has endorsed Gov ernor A1 Smith of New York for president in 1928. That’s the first gun in a battle that will be in full swing three years from next April. A Frenchman after 36 years of hard work presents to the scientific world a “perpetual” clock, 12 feet high, 6 feet wide, and 3'.4 feet deep; it weighs more than half a ton, has 12,000 separate pieces. It will run practically forever with out being wound up. That is in teresting but not important. It isn’t much trouble to wind a clock. (Copyright, 1924.) wettest year has LONGEST DROUTH Columbus.
