THE MONKEY WHO
TURNED CAPITALIST
The Others Took to Socialism
and That Is How the
Fight Began.
Dy JOHN OAKWOOD
Just bocntiBo peoplo licar tho term
mhuU flnanco" so much, tlioy got tlio
Idea that tho whole subject of llnanco
is over their bonds. As a matter of
fact, It 1m rlRht on a level with tholr
broad-bankets. It has more to do
with oyory day grub than anything
lse.
Flnanco has been described as tho
art-'oT applying inonoy to practical
tnds. A man Is a capitalist when ho
accumulates enough inonoy, cither out
or his own savings or by borrowing
Jtlntcrc3t tho savings of others, to
uy a farm or build a factory, and
itflns manufactiirlnB food or somo
tiling else ho can soil to others ut
a profit That's finance. It sounds
simple IJut I hoard a story about
a monkey tho other day that mado
It ercn simpler.
Tar bo It from mo to make a mon
ey or a capitalist but this was n
Trery wise monk. Ho lived In a zoo
H-Jth a dozen various other kinds of
monkeys. Their food was usually
t'irown In ready to ent and each took
Ills share. Hut ono day tho keeper
throw In somo black walnuts, hard
as rocks. All tho monkeys vainly
pllt their teeth on them and they
-ouId liavo starved as Tar as tho
results or their labors went. Out ono
f their number, who was or a mom
Intelligent species than tho rest, did
some thinking. Then ho accumulat
ed a coupto or rocks ho found In tho
enco and cracked tho nuts between
thorn. He started a food ractory. HE
WAS A CAPITALIST. Ho had prop
erty that Increased his ability to pro
duco rood that added to his economic
power.
But trouble began. The other mon
key jrabbed the kernels and ate
them up as fast as he knocked them
cut of thtlr shells. THEY WERE
SOCIALISTS. There wero other
tttones and thoy could havo cracked
their own walnuts, but they believed
In dividing up sharo and sharo alike
rhat tho Capitalist produced. The
Capitalist monkey got bo mad that
Ha did the samo thing to their heads
as ho did to the nuts. Ho cracked
them. Tho zoo keepers had to put
the wlso monkey In a cago by him
self to prevent useless slaughter.
i
Human society handles a situation
liko this hotter. Thero aro those who
don't want to work thero are thoso
who havo not tho capacity to organ
ize enterprise them, aro thoso who
want moro than tho sharo they earn
thero aro thoso also who want an
(iuar division or wealth, and now
and then there Is a rumpus about It
an outlaw atrlko or evolution or some
thing. Hut us n general thing, the
present coclnl order fully protects the
farmer and the manufacturer and ath
or capitalists In their property rights
and tnablij them to rucelvo their
Just p:iy for what they produce li
also provides a r llablo money ays
tern as a medium by which fair ex
changes of different products and
services can bo made, and later oil I
will tell you a story about that.

The Bank Check and How It Per

Americans are the greatest unorn

business would be a clumsy, compll. '
cated and tlme-wastlng affair unless It '
wero for the facility of the bank check. '
When a Check Is Useful j
Mr. Smith could pay his bills by
sending cash by mall, but this method
of payment would bo unwise, because-" !
or tho danger or tho money bolnjj '
lost In transit. Again, he might go out I
and liny express or postal monoy or
ders ror tho amounts due, but to do
this regularly would require a great
deal or his time, and would Involve
needless expanse. He tides, a money
order docB only hair the work a hankj
check does. Although It Is In reality,
a kind of a chock ilnwn by tho ex
press company, or by the post office.
In favor of some person or firm, It la
not returned" to Mr. Smith after it hue
been cashed, but goes back lo tho ex
pross company or to the post office
that Issued it. On the other hand, a,
cashed chock after It comes back to
the bank and Is cancelled Is roturncd
to Mr. Smith, who can keep It ob a re
ceipt In proof or tho t..ct that his bill
has been paid.
Moro than this, In order to keep
accurate records Mr. Smith wants to
have ono account In which all his re
ceipts can be entered and out of
which all payments can be made. Ua

When WlllliiniTeiiii obtained n grant
In Pennsylvania lie was very desirous
of owiirtig the land on Delaware bay
to the sea, nnd procured from the
duke of York u release of nil bis title
and claim to New Castle mid u radius
of I- miles around It, and to the land
between that tract' ami the sea. Lord
Hiiltlmnre protested, but In 10S.i the
Lords of trade ami plantation made a
decision In Peiin's favor.
The tracts which r.nw constitute the
state of Delaware, l'eiin culled "The
Territories," or the "Three Lower
Counties on the Delaware." They were
governed as part of Pennsylvania for
about 'So years. In 177i! the Inhabit
ants declared them a separate state.
Then ensued a long-drawn-out dispute
between Delaware and Pennsylvania
over the northern boundary line. He
cause of the Inaccuracy of the original
survey of 1701, no single curve could
be made to pass through the stones
set up to mark off a radius of l'J miles
uround New Custle. An attempt to
rectify the line wos made by the United
Stnte.s Coast and Geodetic survey, but
when a number of Delaware residents
found they would be geographically In
Pennsylvania they raised such a bowl
that the survey was dropped, and a
Joint boundary commission was ap
pointed to settle the dispute,
pound curve wns found to
very closely to the original

SUNSET IN ARABIAN DESERT
Scene of Remarkable Beauty Under
the Glowing Moon and the
Silver Stars.
There Is no twilight in the desert.
One moment the sun rides high In tho
heavens; the next It dies in brief, few
moments of rudd.v afterglow, and then
at one bound comes the dark. One by
one the stars appear, us when the
lights are turned on at nightfall In a
city, until the purple-velvet sky Is cut
across by a broad swuth of silver dust,
the Milky Way. And so we would fall
asleep, lulled by the murmur of the
Arab voices and the grumbling nf the
camels. . . . Above us a moon that
looked like an enormous silver plate,
and the stars very near. It. la usually
late before tho camp falls nsleep. The
tires die down to beds of glowing em
bers. The night wind rises, and I draw
my blankets about me more closely. I
can discern the dim, misshapen forms
of the camels tethered outside the
zareba whIIh. A sentry, rllle on shoul
der, mullled to the eyes In his nbleh,
moves past on noiseless feet. A Jackal
howls In the darkness. Something rus
tles In the undergrowth n snake or a
lizard, no doubt. The moon transforms
the yellow desert Into n hike of molten
amber. Over everything a magic si
lence falls. E. Alexander Powell, In
