MONOGRAPH Dear Oracle Reader: Tf you are among those who have often read these monograms, we might say it is all right with us, in fact it is welcome, if you take a ‘postcard and send us some advice, but don’t tell us to go jump ina lake; we will pay no atten- tion to such advice. THE ORACLE ’ HE LIVES ON $6 A WEEK “T want no help from any ssource, pub- tie or private,” is the declaration of Al- "BeFt Enoch, according to a newspaper dis- pateh, telling how the 57-year-old chemist is living in Los Angeles for $6 a week, in- wlu@ing $3.75 a week for a hotel room. We doubt if many Americans can live “8 economically as Enoch, as everybody knows that tremendous sums are expend- ed by the average persen to keep up with his neighbors. Life, in its basic essentials, i comparatively simple, but the gadgets and extras that modern civilization de- mands cost money. We have no idea how seriously one Should take the story about Mr. Enoch, “sent out by the Associated Press. It may ‘© @ newspaper man’s idea of a good yarn, On the other hand, it may be some- thing approaching a true story of a man who has disciplined himself to want few _. Wf the extras in life. Anyway, there is a point to be consid- ered in Mr. Enoch’s quest for work for ewhieh he is fitted. Admitting that he is ttlable to eompete with “younger men in.stamina,” the chemist says that “an “OM wian’s head is a storehouse of knowl- edge” and that “in other civilizations, this treasure of the aged could find a market.” Undoubtedly, this is a timely observa- tion. It should be borne.in mind by those who employ workers. Some em- “PIPE have much to recommend them to these seeking capable leadership from s$mbitious and intelligent associates, but, hofietheless, many*employers could use the experience, poise and balance of older empleyes with profit. _ 223 2° MONEY IN THE BANK Small business men seeking loans find , thé Nankers rather difficult. There is not a large demand for loans on the part of beofitable business institutions and organ- izations. The little fellow has to convince bank officials that he is a good risk. gagtime loans are out of style now-a- days; and the smaller banks are holding tight-reins. : «=», “S'People who have sure jobs often get ttless with the public they serve. «es, "2 Two essentials to national prosperity ; _Well-paid-labor and profitable agriculture.

Not only are our schools expected to perform the rudimentary task of educat- ing pupils, but,-in addition, to- train them. for democratic process¢s, to teach - them to get along with other human beings, instruct them in a trade for their eco- nomic licelihood and, in addition, take the task of the home and church in the development of morality and conscience, When one considers the vastly-extend- ed ramifications of the processes of teach- ing, there is no oceasion to wonder at the increased cost of “education.” Never- theless, when we think of the expense involved, we should also bear in mind that ignorance is the most expensive lux- ury ever enjoyed by a careless people. Russia is for peace—a Russian peace.
