As in the preceding session, rail- road stocks were the chief sufferers Chesapeake & Ohio, which was acutely weak yesterday, following announce ment of the terms of the $33. 900, ,00O note issue, again lost ground rapidly.

Among the standard shares were losses of one to two and one-halt points.
 The outburst of selling toward the close began with a slump in St. Paul following the announcement from Washington that an examiner or the interstate commerce commission had charged that St. PauPs accounts had been improperly manipulated. That stock dropped more than four points, and the whole market slunped with it.
 Dealings in Chesapeake & Ohio were unusually large, aggregating 25 per cent of the first hours business. The days low price was 52 7-S,which show ed a decline, allowing for the dividend of 1 per cent which came off today, of five points.
 The break in Chesapeake & Ohio ap- parently aroused uneasiness among foreign holders of American railroad securities, as did the slump in Rock Island shares a few weeks ago. For eign selling was resumed and was an important factor in depressing the market It was estimated that 3O,O0o shares were unIoaded by London, much of it Chesapeake & Ohio.

a satisfactory arrangement with liar yard. The Harvard Crimson in an ed itorial states:
 Whatever may be said against the organization of college athletics to- day, athletic success is one of the factors of a university prestige The undergraduate department of a univer- sfty adds not only to it's own standing but to that of the whole institution to which it belongs, by a good name in the athletic world. Consequently there is cause for rejoicing to more than those primarily interested in Harvard athletic success in the assur- ance that Coach Wray will continue in charge of the crews for at least five years to come. Victories from the crews of Yale in six out of eight years service, the swinging of rowing su- premacy Cambridgeward. and a name for healthy sport, have so placed him that We must make glad that he is to keep on with his work"

Baby Travel Outfits
Bath. Portable Crib and Milk
Carrier Included in Its
Paraphernalia.

"HE modern baby who for any
reason has to be taken on
journey will need sturdy
ieather-cased trunk, quite like any
grown-up. If he takes with him the
newest things that have been invented
for his comfort, he can be made quite
as happy while travelling as if he were
at home in his own nursery.
Conveniences for taking care OF
young children have so increased dur
ing recent years that nearly every ar
ticle needed to contribute to the daily
comfort of even very young children is
now made in such shape that they can
be moved from place to place without
serious inconvenience.
For instance, there are several beds
tor babies that can be compactly fold
ed. Some even can be made to fit in.
side a large trunk. Then there are
folding bathtubs, folding comfort
chairs and folding playnouses, as well
as little toilet kits for baby's use in
travelling.
Portable beds are just as comfort
able and in every way as serviceable
as old-fashioned cribs.
Handy Folding Crib.
A new folding crib, big enough for
child of three years, can be fatty
folded into an oblong space. 37Ha
inches long by 20 inches wide, and
weighs only fourteen pounds. Yet no
more comfortable bed for child could
be found than this little crib when il
is ready for use.
All the manipulation required to
erect it is to unfasten the few thumb
screws at either side of the bed. The
sides and ends of the entire frame
work can then be folded together in
less than FIVE minutes into compact
shape that can be easily slipped into
the bottom of trunk.
This little bed, in serviceable OAK
finish, costs only 81 So In white
enamel, the favorite finish tor all baby
fittings, it costs 81 more. Mattresse;

Another folding crib of especial
value now, when mothers feel that
they must keep the baby out of doors

is a frame covered on all sides with

is called a "carriole." 1t moves or

Since he has imagination, he can be
what he wishes and have what he

fingers end, once his Imagination is

great ship, the carpet a rolling sea,
and at most Suggestion Is needed
from the busy mother. A few chairs
can be train of cars and keep him
occupied for hours. A wooden box is
transformed into a mighty locomo-
tive. In fact, give an imaginative
child almst anything-a string Of
beads or piece of colored glass-and
out of it he will construct great hap
piness.
But when out walking with three
year-old, who is for the time being a
young colt, and if an acquaintance is
met who offers to shake the child by
the hand and he will only shake his
head and winnie, what's to be done
Is person to feel mortified at the
childs manners? Or is he to renounce

If the child has straightforward

sure to get in the way sometimes.
When this happens, remember that a
child can be taught manners and sew

be TO anybody.
1t is only for a short time-two or
three years in most cases-that the

dansant or even a restaurant dinner.
This is a question so momentous
that many bargains in the elaborate
two-piece tailored suits are being
passed by for the sort of blouse
which would look we'll when the coat
is taken of.
The best answer to this question
is the French handmade blouse OF fin
est sheer batiste. These models, rum
ming in price from So to SIS, are made
on tailored lines and with their hand
run tucks, occasional bits OF en-
broidery and clever introduction Of
entire deux are extremely dainty. The
smartest of them have long sleeves,
small, turned-back cuffs and haring
picot- edged collars. One lovely model
has a tiny vine embroidery on the
fiat collar and cuffs, two rows Of pearl
navy blue buttons down the front and
the neck is finished with a navy blue
ribbon bow. The buttons are ex-
quisitcly chosen and the dark neck
ribbons make a nice accent.
Net and lace blouses are passe.
Crepe de chine is too wintry and
chiffon has not enough body to with
stand the wear of hot weather. Hand
kcrchief linens are lovely, if one can
pay the price and afford fresh blouse
every day. They are, however, easily
mussed and their charm goes with
their pristine freshness.
Batiste launders beautifully and
withstands the pressure of the top
coat better than linen. The colored
batistes, while very dainty, have not
the adaptability OF those in white, nor
are they as suitable for any and every
gown.

and folded up, are also obtainable. The
"carriole" is heavier than the little
crib and is also more expensive. Sic So.
A new design in hammocks has
double flaps at the sides, one of cam
vas or khaki and one of open work
mesh or netting. The cloth flaps can
be dropped at either side when the
weather is oppressive, leaving the pro-
lection of the strong mesh, so that the
baby will not fall out and will at the
same time get plenty of fresh air.
A canopy over this hammock bed is
attached to the rods on which the
hammock is swung. One baby supply
shop has just designed mosquito net
ting cover to fit over the canopy and
completely envelop the hammock.
Where babies have to be kept out in
places infested with mosquitoes it will
be found a great comfort.
