An Old Story in a New Form , Reams of paper have been used, and alas, perhaps wasted, in warning persons to desist from investing in fake stock promotion schemes. The lure of the cleverly written article is greater than the judgment of the small investor, and so he gives away his savings in exchange for a certificate that intrinsically is not worth the paper on vhich it is printed. Oil stocks are a favorite with many persons who are seeking to get rich over night. The phenomenal dividends of old and well established companies induce the victim to believe that every new company is destined to rival the old concerns. He doesn't know that the profits of the old companies have come after years of careful development of the properties and the installation of a marvelous system of organization and administration.

Very few new -companies are successful. Most of them are not organized primarily to benefit the stockholders. They are formed to

enrich the promoters and to defraud the stock

holders

W, C. Crosby and Edward H. Smith, writing

.in the Saturday Evening Post, tell of the small

percentage of oil companies that are "straight'

"In New York there is a concern which does confidential investigating for many kinds of clients," write these investigators. "This company devotes specical attention to stock and promotion swindles. Not long agp I was told by an agent of this concern that in the eighteen months prior to October, 1919, there had been incorporated in the United States more than five thousand two hundred oil companies. This concern had investigated them all and found that only a minor percentage were straight. In other words, a large number had no visible assets and could not be rated at all. They were dealing in pale blue sky. "Now I know from experience that the average capital stock of such oil companies is not less than $100,000 each. So these five thousand two hundred companies represent a stock selling possibly of more than 1-2 billion dollars and a large number were found to be fraudulent. Every man

will draw his conclusions according to his tern-:

perament and judgment. Personally I can see where 50 million dollars is likely to be taken from the public right here. The oil concerns need to sell only a small per cent of their capital stock to do it." The astounding sums which the public donates to stock sale swindlers annually is arousing bankers and financierrs to the necessity of conducting campaigns throughout the country against the folly of giving away perfectly good money for pieces of worthless paper. Money is needed today for the reconstruction of the world. The demands for capital to finance additions to well established companies, to satisfy the needs of legitimate borrowers, to permit the industrial, commercial, transportation and agricultural spheres to develop adequately, are enormous. Every dollar donated to a fake concern is a dollar removed from a source in which it is helping restore the world to a normal basis.

THE GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS DAILY TALK

ROCK ME IN THE CRADLE How wonderful Is that force which takes the lids of our eyes and ' gently presses them tightly to sleep! Completely lost as we are In a quiet and serene ohliTlon, while darkness wraps us In Its arms, yet are we cared for, watched orer, and .renewed for the great activities of the open day. Mysterious as death must Inevitably be, still It is little more so nor more wonderful than is our nightly sleep. Knowing no more about the one than the other, so far as its mysterious elements are concerned, yet do we trust the one and fear the other. How precious to the horny-handed toiler Is the gracious gift of sleep; how 'full of welcome this drapery of darkness to him who has thought and planned and done his best. How wise a philosophy this "early to bed and early to rise!" For sleep, in reality. Is a benefactor of power. Tired, worried, disheartened alone It Is then that sleep creeps up to offer balm and comfort, and to reshape In the nlhgt that which became ruffled during the day. And like the new visions that flash into our senses in a glorious country, so do the new days come to us made fragrant by the touch of the night. "Oh sleep! It Is a gentle thing, Beloved from pole to pole."

Property, which 99 out of every 100 citizens probably did not know the city owned, was to be added to Glen Park, it was announced. Lawrence Henlng and Miss Anna Betteabrock, both of this city, were married by the Rev. Conrad Huber. Ten arrests were made in one day in police court and local officers said that it was probably without a parallel in the history of the city. The marriage of Elmer Sittloh to Miss Rose Lamb was quietly celebrated at the home of Rev. Beck, on South Seventh street.

(Copyright, 1919, by The "Wheeler Syndicate. Inc.) ' OLIVE. Olive, the sign of peace and joy, is one of the few feminine names which has no early Greek or Latin origin. It first appears fn Italy, the land of the olive trees, whose branches have come to be the symbol of peace and harmnnv. Etvmoloeists claim, that.

though it is closely associated with ' the Italian Olivier, it would never have achieved popularity as a name ; but for the Teutonic Olaf (forefather's ! relic). Oliviero, the paladin of Charlamenge, was most frequently in use among all those of the circle pala- ; ing, and gave rise to the saying : which has since become a proverb: ! "Givlne a Rowland for an Oliver." En

glish knights of old, chivalrous reputefrequently bore the name of Oliver until the eminence of the Protector made "old Noll" a word of hate among the cavaliers. The feminine form Olive, which was : invented in Italy was brought to England by the influx of Italian literature, in the Tudor reign. Its form was then Olivia and as such, it still has great vogue, especially In literature and poetry. Goldsmith calls the unfortuliate daughter of his inimitable "Vicar ' of Wakefield.. Olivia, and many other heroines of that literary period bore the same name. Is is only of recent years that Olive - falned preference over Olivia. The : change came about in England, but j was not long in reaching this country, 4 and now Olive is a popular and fash- ! ionablo name here. The fire opal is the gem assigned . to her.
