What is Vorth While? Most philosophy, however deviou: its preambles, comes finally to the conclusion that character, or personality, is what we are striving for in this existence. Character must reach its highest perfection by way of personal service operating through desire to promote the general good. Organizations as well as individuals strive for character as the highest attainment possible, and the one thing vorth while. A BANK OF PERSONAL SERVICE of course, but when this kind of money waste is set down side by side with the enormous demands made upon middle class producers to contribute to the country's charities until giving becomes a burden, then it assumes the aspect of a near saturnalia. Business men, particularly those struggling to get a foothold, are the sufferers.

GUMS TIRE spendthrift nonsense have brought about the onorous income tax that has taken out of the world of trade and thrown into non-taxable securities millions of dollars, millions that could well be used for the expansion and development of American industries. The nation cries aloud for revision of our tax system, for the modification of the burdensome surtax, but our lawmakers find their excuse in the popular approval that gathers to them as a result of any move that seems to show them willing to "soak" the rich. There are rich men and rich men, however.
