was that the profit taking was renewed in force
before the close and the unsettled continued un

rally from the opening break in which Peoples
Gas, Brooklyn Transit and Sugar were forced
down from l1s to 3 points. The striking fea-
turc Of the huoyant market which prevailed dur
ing Ing the middle portion Of the session was the
Inconsistency of the strength and demand for
special stocks. A rapid price movement in an
individual stock would be followed by sharp
reaction, while the speculative demand would
shift h,lrriedly to other quarters. A few min
utcs' consultation between traders on the floor
would result in the formation Of pool to take
all offerings in some inconspicuo,s stock. After
these were absorbed the price would he rapidly
hid up l or or 3 points. Such vancouver
never failed to attract horde Of speculative
followers buying orders coming from both within
and without the exchange. These short time
pools had no difficulty in lIuidatins their hold

stocks in which this operation occurred includes
many of the high grade railroad stocks as we'll

Amid the JOY and jubilance of
youth, Gods gracious spirit
gently called her to a higher
life. She obeyed the call and
united with the Baptist Church
OF this place. Ever after she
remained a loyal, consistent
member of the same. Her ill.,
f1uence, which was potent,
tended to mould other lives for
the Kingdom. Like Mary she
broke the Alabaster box at the
Masters feet. She gave all that
was highest. richest, best and
most fragrant in her life to her
Lord. In cloud and sunshine
alike she threw herself trustingly
and unreservedly upon Gods
rich promises. A life thus spent
could but have glorious ending
With songs of praise upon her
lips, with eyes fixed in enrap-
tured vision upon the beautiful
Beyond, with a radiant glow
upon her aged and withered face,
she babe farewell to earthly
scenes and went to the presence
of her Saviour whom she had
loved and served so we'll. De-
parted Saint farewell Blessed
be your memory. 1t shall ever
be blessing and All inspiration
