COCHRAN SURE OF PUTTING ON CARPENTIER-DEMPSEY Chicago, Jan. 4.—Charles Cochran, bhy, veteran “Athletic second baseman and right/ fielder, will return to the house of Mack next season. Connie ‘announced last ‘night that the veteran will take the place vacated by Livingstone as coach of the Athletics. Taddy has signed with the Red Sox. Harry Davis will captain the Ath- letics again. Murphy and Davis were members of the Athletics in the hal- cyon days of pennant winning. Ralph Perkins, Mack's star catcher, paid him a visit and has come to terms for the 1920 campaign. It is said Per- kins has been given a substantial raise in salary. According to Mack's new training camp plans, Murphy will look afier the outfielders, Davis will con centrate on the infielders, and Mack will coach the pitchers and catchers. It was just 20 years ago this coming spring that Danny Murphy was grad- him_w-Il enough- to say that he will agsresive type as in.the past. “The strenuous efforts of other clubs to secure. this player will cause many fans to expect too much—to think him perfect; a superior player every day.

A Share In The Profits These articles have been dwelling for the past few numbers upon the merits of bonds as'investments. As we have said before, bonds represent a debt. They are security for money loaned and are a definite promise to pay. Usually they are very safe and therefore the interest they pay is comparatively low. . But many people are not content with low interest. They would rather have a {xtttle less safety and a little more return. For such persons the world of stocks exists. . Stocks are a siare in the business. The very form in which they are issued implies this. We bur a share of stock or ten shares of stock. Really we have bought one share or ten shares of the business. If the business Prospers, we pros- per. If it is poor, we may be temporarily poor, at least so far as that particular in- vestment is concerned. If the business fails we may lose all or a farge part of what we put into its stock.
