GERMAN MARK CHEAP
Value Drops Below 42 to the British
Pound
f London, Dec. 11. (By A. P.) The
v.iluo of the German mark has fallen
below 42 to the British pound. Before
the war the mark waa worth approxi
mately one shilling', or 20 marks to the
pound.
On December 7 at Copenhagen 42.28
marks could be obtained for one pound
sterling, at Chrlstlanla 42.08 marks for
a pound, at Stockholm 41.5 and at
Berne 41.083. At Stockholm tho rate
of exchange on the Austrian kronen has
fallen to 77.20 to the pound sterling.
The rapid depreciation of the value of
the mark probably Is explained by the
statement of the Berlin Itelchsbank for
the week ended November 30. It show
ed that the increase In German note
circulation durlntr the week amounted to
35,000,000 on the basis of comcrslon
Into sterling at 20 marks to the pound,
the figures still used for statistical pur
poses In this connection.
COTTON PRODUCTION LARGE
Agriculture Department Esti
mates Increase of Previous Year
Washington, Dec. 11. Tho total pro
duction of cotton In tho United States
for the season of 1918-19 will amount
to 6,695,529,000 pounds, not Including
llntcrs, and equivalent to 11,700,000
bales of 600 pounds gross weight, tho
Department of Agriculture today an
nounced In Its final report of the season.
Total production last year was 11,302,
375 bales. ... ,. ,
Production of Sea Island cotton Is
estimated at 48,000 bales, compared
with 92,619 bales last year; and of
American Egyptlon cotton, produced In

"My name's Todd; are you Flint, who
has the next office to me?"
I said "Yes."
Then he said! "I usrd' to be in the
real estate line, but I gave It up. It
listened dandy on paper, but things
never worked out an I planned. I
hadn't enough capital to put it over
I only had about (6000 .and, of course,
that was a fleablto to what I wanted
but, of course, you know that as well
as me."
I had an awful sick feeling In my
tummy when ho said this, but ho hadn't
finished speaking.

"The second and last summer Jkspent
in selling house lots was punk. Bcfnro
the season wa3 over, however, I man
aged to get five fairly decent fel'ows, but
i reckon caen of "em cost rae .b00 to
get."
"Five hundred to get what do you
mean?" I exclaimed.
"I probably dropped that much money
on wasters In trying to get worth-while
fellows. You see, Flint, I'd put on a
fellow and glxo him a drawing nccount.
and then In a few weeks he'd either
fly the coop or else I'd flro him. Every
worth-while fellow I got was the sifting
of perhaps fifty others. I know a book
house who say that if they get one In a
hundred they nre satisfied."
My head began to swim with the
thought of what was ahead of me. It
seemed a good chance to find out, so
I accepted his offer to drop Into his of
flee, so he could tell mo more about the
problem of hiring salesmen.
"Did you lose thosa Ave men the next
winter?"
"Nope, I told 'em to suggest some
thing they'd like to sell during the win

"I dickered with a maker and got an
agency. Those cleaners went so well
that I dropped land entirely and Fold
novelties eer since. Three of those
flvo fellows are still with me. Ono went
west to a farm nnd one got the agency
for the cleaners In Michigan."
"How many men have jou now," I
asked.
"Eleven altogether. Nino regulars
nnd a couple of tryers. I usually have
one trycr at a time, but these two look
ed good, so I wouldn't let a likely chance
slip by."

The production forecast in September

as a result of deterioration during

Have You an Idle Truck?
Have You Something to Haul?
Let's Get Together!
There are idle trucks in Philadelphia today and there
are goods waiting to be hauled in Philadelphia today.
Proper co-operation spells success in any business.
In an effort to make motor truck hauling more profitable
to owners and to give better hauling service in Philadelphia
and vicinity, we have opened a motor truck clearing house.
If you want to know anything about motor trucks, com
municate with us. If you want a good driver or mechanic,
let us know.
Drivers and mechanics, if you want a place, get in touch
with us.
It is our plan to do everything possible to further the in
terests of the motor truck business in Philadelphia and
vicinity.
Our services are free.
Owners attending the Truck Owners' Conference,
December 1 1 and 12, are invited to visit us.

cSfie Most Beautiful Garuibneriat
Proof of quality lies in
the reputation a motor car
has wcjn after many years
of public service.
It rests also in public
confidence the firm belief
in the honest value of that
product under any and all
manufacturing and selling
conditions.
The extraordinary de
mand for cars that now
confronts the Paige is ex
tremely gratifying and
proves once more that the
Paige in War -Time or in
Peace-Time holds its place
as the best idollar-for-dollar
value in its field.
This popular clamor for
Paige cars is, however, some
what embarrassing. It will
be several months before
our factory can reach nor-!
mal production. There is
no magic wand to transform
War-Time plants into Peace
Time plants over night.
We are forced, therefore,
to ask your patience and
indulgence. We are doing
our utmost.
We suggest that for
your protection you file your
order for a Paige car at once,
so that there may be as
little delay in delivery as
possible.
Our salesroom will be open until 10 P. M.
every evening during Auto Jubilee Week
