York-Thirty thousand boys, most of them under 17, are growing up 'in the sunless canyons of steel «nd brick that the world knows as Wall street. * a Fed by Horatio Alger tales and the myriad stories of great success, a stream flows from every point on the American map into the narrow, darkened thorough» fares money center, Four hundred may be found daily scurrying like ants as rumners for the Stock Exchange. 'The other thousands are office boys in broker- age or banking or insurance. con- cerns-each with a dream of future finanglal . glanthood. What sort of boy sticks it out? What is expected of the lads who give up thé old swimming hole and the baseball sand lots for this hectic ant's life in the trade marts? ~ The -\'man-whoknows\ smiles at the questions. He has heard them before in varied form and knows well' that, everything being equal, the hordes of. boys will find\ that they 'have not escaped school, but have just begun it. \'The smalktown boys are, on the whole, most successful,\ says Ed- ward D, Cray, and hé is the \man- who-knows'\ because, as head of the Wall Street Y.
