gested by the greatest statistician j
of the world today for obtainim; j
a return to good business.
What a platform on which to
work ; just the old fashioned vir- j
tues. It seems simnle. does it i
not? Yet how hard it is Tor)
some to return to these virtues af-!
ter the wild scramble for money
and the orgy... of, spending during
the golden days of the World
War. I
. It does seem that what is need- j
ed more than anything else for r
- resumption of normal business is I
a return of confidence : a confi !
dence and faith in the future. I
