But the Mississippi valley, which in 1850 turned out only 19 per cent of American manufactures, had risen to 41 per cent in 1921. This was shown by the indus- trial census. The figure has risen.

Doctors scratched their heads and brought her before a board to test her sanity. b Have we, in our materialism and vicious competition, {of yo actually reached the point where any one who rejects money, tho in dire need, is to have sanity challenged? Majority of Americans already have a recognized form of insanity—“pecuniary honorific,” highbrow name for _ “displaying ability to pay.” TAND I say again, stand mber that tf TOG ia n to Naivasha of Wednesday nel.
