This course appears TO have occnsIoned
considerable comment at the institution,

less dependent on the opposite sex and
Inc marrying opportunities OF women will
be greatly lessened. We. however fail
TO see any occasion for uneasiness In this
regard on the part OF the young women.

CURB TRADERS MUST
KNOW THEIR TRADE
Interesting Process in Gotham
Looks Easy, but Outsiders
Are Barred.

Many persons are OF the opinion that
trading ON the curb is 2 now proceeding.
but this is not So as IT is known that In
1920 n curb market existed In Paris and.
as In New York n part of tho street was
roped to mark the boundaries Of the mar
Bet. This French market finally became
so large that 10 had to be moved to the
garden of "A prince. who rented out booths
at an enormous figure. The curb on
Broad street was started in the early
eighties, when less than dozen men con-
sTcgated in front of the Mills building
and traded in a few hundred shares OF
stock daily. The Issues bought and sold
at that time were principally bank stocks
The Broad street market pays no rent 10

the same as on the big board namely

prevent splitting OF this regular rnte.
says Mining and Scientific Press
The curb is an open market IL has no
admission fees. no restriction as TO meD1
bers and no listing committees This has
often invited the question: Why Is II that
man who wants to buy or sell block
OF stock on the market does not do II
himself? Can anyone trade in the mar
ket? How Is the business transacted?
These questions are but natural. but let
an outsider attempt to save commission
by transactlns his own business and the
question is answered. None but recog-
nized brokers can do business in this mar
kets Signatures OF outsiders will not be
accepted, and the traders usually put up
Il Job on the newcomer IL he attempts
to Introduce himself.
For many years the curb has been rec
osnized as necessary adjunct 10 the
stock exchange and It's members are ieal-
Gus OF It's good name. The curb abso-
lutely has no organization, bylaws. con
siitutlon or rules for the transacting Of

that are held sacred. The strict observ-
