' BY 3. L. GARVIN. For ten years disappointment Iwu mechanical snip-snap of party cries and countercries. * Let us get out of it now. Let thf two Oppositions as well as the sane- dogged our e/tbrts. Our terrific taxa-! meaning bulk of Labor face the in- tion has seriously reduced the annual disputable realities. On present lines rate of investment which formerly so our relative competitive efficiency largely contributed to the expansion must decrease; the stimulus of employ- of employment and trade. This is one reason why our export business never recovered its pre-wai buoyancy. On present political lines it never will. Tariffs everywhere shut out all the best skilled work of our people and directly hinder their lives; while our open door promotes foreign employ- ment in every branch. In what regard, we do not exert our- selves in any way to get fair play and equality for our people. We do not lift an effective finger to advance free exchange. But quite apart from tariffs, the nation's work, ment by enterprise and investment must decline. On these lines working youth in this country, ten years hence, would be crushed by an unparalleled proportion of elderly pensioners and other receivers. The dull weight of deles would deaden the springs of pro- ductive activity and competitive power. The Kilmarmu'k by-election showed that the Government are at least as sti-ong as ever in the constituencies.

An Economy Hint One woman makes wood use of the mlniacences of successful men, even his friends know little. Nover, so far as la known, did he sit for a photo- graph. Mr. Hubert's chief interest was his work. He could list few friends the few included Edward Bok and August Heckscher and few avocations. That ha was a lover of good music is shown by the fact that ha Installed In his Florida home a large and expen- sive organ, and. alnce he could not play, engaged an organist to play It for him. Beyond that ho seems to have devoted himself entirely to his flashlight factory while In the North and his citrus-fruit business while In Florida, where he lived alone. He is said by his employees to have been the type of man who accomplished things In business by working care- fully and intensely, and not by devis- ing sudden, brilliant plans, In con- ducting his business he was accus- tomed, it is said, to ask the advice of those who he felt were bettor able to meet the problem than ho was. He followed the same practice when the time came for him to arange his will. oly of the basic patents for the flush- light. From tha invention of the flashlight to his death the story of Conrad Hu- bert's life Is the story of the growth of the flashlight industry, to which he devoted himself so completely that he seldom took time for other things. From the first he hnd to overcome many difltaultles. He hod to "sell" the idea in order to put the youthful busi- ness on Its feet; he hod to persuade an electric lamp manufacturing com- pany that his flashlight was practical and that it would be profitable for them to manufacture miniature in- candescent lamps; he had to persist, in spite of disappointments and dis- couragements.
