The maglcian, who during 35 vears of activity, did much to ex- pose frandulent practices of fake mediums, composed a quotation of ten words, of which his wife alone shared the knowledge he took to s grave. Many “Messages” Of the' “dozens and dozens of | messages” which she said today that mediums had given her as coming from her departed husband, Mrs. Beatrice Houdinl, said that not one held the key words that would identify it as Houdini's.

All this sounds elementary, but the instinct to beat the game is strong in all of us. It tickles our self-estecm to think that we have got something cheap. My own conviction is that the only way to get things cheap is to pay the price of the highest quality—that, generally speaking, those men and institutions which have the biggest reputation have gained that repu- tation by delivering the biggest value per dollar. | to lsp I | still 1 hundred nn‘l)‘ | ot the rescuers t {men failed to res They are everybody’s friend in the business.
