"Rut the pastor hemmed and hawed. He felt that his fashionable flock wouldn't welcome such an ad dition as the old darke.v. He didn't want to hurt the old fellow's feel ings, however, and finally he said: " 'G.o home, Uncle Rooster. Go home and pray over it. This is an Important matter, and It should be made a subject of prayer.' "Old Uncle Rooster went home and In a few days he was back again. "'Well'." said tlie divine. 'Well, what's the verdict now?'

COPENHAGEN SEEKS TO CONTROL BALTIC TRADE The Old "Merchants' Haven' mcrcial Leader of North Has Been Crippled by tl: The Vikings, scudding about in their little sailing ships to plunder pretty well controlled commerce a dozen cen turies ago. In the courso of their scud dings they founded on the north coast of the Island of Sjaelland, where Na ture had provided a protected harbor, a town which they called Kobenhavn. or "merchants haven," and which is now known to the world as Copenhagen, capital of Denmark. The merchandising at this haven con sisted largely in those days of receiving stolen treasures from the big blond raid ers and providing the sea rovers in re turn with mead for their drinking horns. The traders flourished and eventually began to find some outlet beyond their own country for their increasing stocks, and thus Copenhagen grew to com mercial importance, so much so, in fact, it became one of the influential members of the Hanseatic League and a rival of Hamburg, Bremen, Lubeck and the German North Sea and Baltic ports. In the Thiry Years' War Germany was torn and plundered and Copenhagen took a spurt ahead of its German rivals. King Christian IV. recognizing Den mark's opportunity, promoted trade. In 1620 he built on one of the waterways which cut into the city a house, and that striking, many gabled structure, still is used as a stock exchange. It is of red tapestry brick and is surmounted by a spire formed by the twisting together, ropelike, of the bodies of four great copper dragons. This spire, green with the verdigris of centuries, may be seen on clear days far out over the Oresund, that separates Denmark from Sweden. Grrmiinx Got the Trade But in later days the Danish traders lost some of the aggressiveness of Eric the Red and of old Christian, while the North Germans became more and more the merchants of the Baltic and the North Sea. Then came the theft by Prussia of Schleswig-Holstein and later the digging of the Kiel Canal. Copen hagen became an easy going city of a glorious past, while the ships from the seven seas anchored at Hamburg or Bremen. The world war. however, gave Copen hagen another opportunity, and now the old "Merchants' Haven" hopes again to take mercantile sea honors from the castle banner of Hamburg. Regarding Copenhagen's aspirations. Albert E. Haase, writing in the New York Times, says: The war made Copenhagen a clearing house for Europe. As the capital of one of the most important neutral Euro pean countries it became a political center of graat significance. Changed conditions brought prosperity, and a new class of businessmen assumed con trol. The financier supplanted the pro ducer. Denmark's financial system was. even before the war. sounil.

Old banks expanded, and new banks came into existence. It is reported that de posits grew to almost four times their prewar amount. Insurance records of old Denmark were shattered in a man ner that never had been thought possi ble ; for Copenhagen became the place in which American and European insur ance companies placed their reinsurance, a business which had once gone to the Central Powers. I On the heels of this increased finan cial power came a positive assertion of initiative on the part of the Danish j businessman. World-wide trading or iganizations came into being, and Copen i hagen became the home of these organ izations, the branches of which were chiefly in the countries at war with Ger many. Among these organizations is the Trans-Atlantic Company, which was started in 1916, to compile information regarding foreign trade and to invest capital in firms engaged in foreign trade. This organization has, so far, succeeded in associating itself with seventeen im porting and exporting companies. An other important organization is the General Commercial Company, Ltd., started in 1917, which differs from the Trans-Atlantic Company only in that it is concerned chiefly with Russia and South America.

Tea strong commercial organizations, free from German influence are sources of strong assurance to the Danish trader, yet the free port has been the founda tion of the confidence upon which they have placed their hopes. Their confi dence In Copenhagen's free port has not been lessened by the constant warnings that Sweden and Norway will not stand with folded arms while Denmark at tempts to gain supremacy in the Baltic trade. Again and again the warning is made that Malmo and Gothenburg in Sweden, and Bergen and Christiania in Norway, are planning free harbors. The Dane knows that more cities of Scan dinavia will be needed to handle the enormous resulting traffic, yet he is well aware of the fact that the geographical position of either Malmo or Gothenburg is not as favorable as that of Copen hagen. Norway's claims do not loom large, for Bergen and Christiania can not be placed in the same category with Gothenburg or Malmo. The port of Copenhagen has been free for more than twenty-five years. For a period of years it was not improved, but during the war changes have been made and a real development has taken place. It has been estimated that more than 10 million dollars has been spent thus. Its tonnage capacity, reported to be 1,600,000. has been pronounced as inadequate for the traffic which Copen hagen may expect. This condition, how ever, may be easily overcome, since the free port, being north of the city, is at Women Are Buying Their Spring and Summer Footwear Easter heralds the new styles and all arc preparing.

The free port is a semi-official insti tution, and is in close connection with the Danish customs department. In fact, it is an agency of that department. Like all other free ports, it offers cer tain advantages to tlie foreign manufac turer. Goods may be stored in its build ings free of duty for any length of time. Thus the privilege is afforded to the Baltic distributor of having a conven ient storehouse for his goods, which may accumulate during a slack season. When the demand becomes heavy, the Baltic trader is in a position to meet the wants of his customers immediately. The car goes of oceangoing vessels may be un loaded at Copenhagen and distributed in the Baltic regions by the smaller steam ers which call at the less important Bal tic ports. These steamers would return to Copenhagen with the exports of the Baltic regions, which would form the return cargo of the oceangoing vessels. The convenience which the Copen- ] hagen free port affords the foreign man- i ufacturer is not confined to the Baltic j territory alone: for Copenhagen may J well take Hamburg's place for all Eu- | rope. As Hamburg was at one time so : Copenhagen is now a terminus for many ! ships calling at all ports of the world, j and chiefly European ports. Hence it ' offers the same service that Hamburg i did in former years, that is. quick and [ cheap transhipment of goods, when the j demand is heavy, to all important Euro- | pean ports.
