How Can The Average Man Get Ahead True Stories Os Wage Earners And Salaried Men And Women Who Have Found The Road to Financial Independence (Ry Samuel O. Rice, Educational Director Investment Bankers Association of America)

Smoke and savings form the material for this achievement in getting ahead. For' years this man of smoke and savings, a poor Spanish cigar maker, left his small savings with his employer. He drew no interest. It was a custom of the old world and he followed it. Then he came to America and worked "on the bench” here. | After a while an American friend learned of the Spaniard’s savings and told him that money could and would work for him safely and surely if put into safe bonds. The Latin, contrary to tradition, was no gambler. It happened that his friend could direct him to a reputable investment house. At the end of 25 years the cigar maker had $5,000 from his small savings. (Not much? Only $5,000 for a quarter of a century of work? Yes, but immeasurably better than nothing and still infinitely better, than the shallow experience of loss as the gullible victim of a low bucket shop or a crooked stock dealer, |

EVERETT SCpTT MAY RETIRE FORM BASEBALL THIS YEAR New York, N. Y„ Oct. 18—Not only will the New York Giants, ft(len world's champion*, go through a re building process before they are ready to scale title heights again, but the Yankees, their successors to baseball's crown, also may bolster a lew weak links in their victorious machine before Hie 1924 season gett under way. It developed today that Everett Scott, veteran shortstop of tht Yankees, who holds the all-thm record for consecutive games played it considered voluntary retirement although Milin- Huggins, manager ol the new champions, has no desin himself to part with the game’s great i st "iron man." Scott, however, has an attractive business enterprise in view, whirl if accept! d. would mean his passim lifter having piled up the remark able record of participating in 1,131 consecutive games, u record h< started in 1916 with the Boston Re( I'm and which nearly doubles thi best previous major league mark His home is in Bluffton, Indiana. "This may be my last world se ries,” Scott admitted just before om < f the games with the Giants, '.ant to be at my i>ost so that if i ( on't come back in the spring 1 can remember with pride my last season I've been around a long time and 1 m not getting any faster." Scott had bis wish so far as the s- ?ries was concerned for the ‘deacon rfter a rather disappointing seasor came back to play thd greates.

IS.—Approximately 15,000 teachers from all over Indina attended first meetings of the Indiana State Teachers’ association (onvention here today, according to an estimate by Miss Elsie Huebner president of the association.

or the $5.0'10 brought in opportunity. Opportunity came with a young American cigar salesman ambitious :o own his own business. He knew the selling end of the business. The Spaniard knew the manufacturing end. They formed a partnership. The $5,000 financed the undertaking, j It was speculating in its true sense. Both men took a chance, but it was speculation founded on sound business experience, sense and honesty. Most of the so-called speculation that is nothing but the shiftless desire of inexperience to get something for nothing, is scarcely worthy of even the name of gambling. The Spaniard's speculation was not based on tips or i “systems,” but on the face that he knew the manufacturing end of the cigar business and his partner knew the selling end. and both were honest. They made a fortune. They own a I brand of cigarc that is seen in almost every city. Anu the Spaniard is still putting his savings—much larger | now—into bonds.

' Indiana produced 90,000 barrels of oil in June, the same amount in July and production increased to 97,000 . barrels in August. Several Punished for Fishing With Seines Indianapolis, Oct. 17—Found guilty of taking fish with a gill net in Kontz Lake. M'lo Culp of near Plymouth, was fined sl7 and costs and sentenced to serve 24 days in jail by a jury in the Marshall county circuit . court, according to word just reach- ■ ing Richard Lieber, director of con- > servation in this state. Culp was ar- ' rested on Apr'l 12 by game wardens. .> A few days ago Buck Lung, of Warr saw, charged with netting in 1 Wawasee, was found guilty by a jury j in the Kosciusko county circuit court and fined $lO and costs and sentenced to serve 30 days in jail. Both men ■ are now serving sentences. ! According to R. D. Fleming, chief j of the ludiana game warden service, these are the only cases on record where juries sent men to jail for vlo- ’ lating the state’s fish and game laws. 1 , Occasionally a court will impose a f jail sentence, but the fact that juries i dd so is most emphatic evidence! ’ that public sentiment is strong for I the conservation of wild and aquatic 1 life in this state and its taking mostly f I in a manner prescribed by law, in the j opinion of Mr. Leiber. In other .| words wild and aquatic life are held ■ in trust by the state as the property r .of the public. Poachers and such 3 will be treated by the conservations I department as common thieves.
