School Notes

On Friday afternoon OF last week the
boys Of the Ebert school paid visit to
the Capitol Hill creamery to learn how
to test milk and cream. Many had sam
pies to be tested. and all seemed to find
the work very interesting. Trunks to
Mr.. Walter Whiting.
We hope the boys will realize the
value of tester, so that those who be
come dairymen will invest in one and
thereby be able to Gull out the unprofit-
able "boarders' Of their herds.
The girls Of the Sewing class spent
the period hemstitching handkerchieis,
stand covers, etc.
Teacher in Geography class-Name the
products of Africa.
Wise Pupils Oyster feathers and ele-
phant plumes.
The following committee were chosen
to arrange ten minute program for the
opening exercises in the Grammar Grade

ity to do this work, as the room has beer

New York, March 11.-Bullish sentl.

large selling orders today when at
tempts were made to carry 1urthef
Yesterdays rise. Liquidation was re-
newed in American sugar and the east
ern railroad shares, among Wnlcn
losses ran from / to points. A large
part Of the list was forced under yes
terdays close. The announcement OF
the regular New York Central d1vldeno
caused that stock to rally over a point
and the whole list became steadler To-
ward noon. Bonds were irregular.
American sugar again weakened at
the opening today. 1t dropped TWO
points to 98A on the first few transac-
tons National Biscuit advanced a
point. Changes otherwise were small
and irregular with an easier tendency
among the active stocks.
Although professional pressure was
applied more or less persistently, the
market did not sag much, and when
support appeared for sugar and Ne"
Haven. the whole list improved. New
Haven rose to a. fraction above yester-
davis closing and sugar rallied point.
The market closed irregular. Popu-
lar shares sagged to the lowest before
the session ended. Steel issues were
affected by the unfavorable resume or
the conditions in trade journals.

CEDAR RAPIDS MAN
TO MARSHAL[70WN
PITCHER SroDoLA Is SIGNED BY
PA HILL TO RICHARDS OF
THE "ANSONs."

Cedar Rapids, March 1l.-Pa Hill
yesterday engineered a deal whereby
Manager Frank Richards Of the Mar
shalltown baseball club signed Wencil
Shine" Stodola for the 1914 season.
The deal really is gift to Marshall
town from Pa Hill, and Is made to
benefit both Stodola and Marshalltown.
Stodola signed the contract and will
report for first training with the new
city,
Stodola is highly pleased over the
deal. He is with Pa Hill on the idea
that a ball player makes mistake by
starting out with team Of his home
town. Pa Hill has much confidence in
Stodola and gives him to Marshall-
town simply because he Is interested
in the local sleep ball experts career.
If Stodola gets in condition this year
he will be one of the star pitchers, If
not the star pitcher. of the Marshall
town team. Last year he was handi.
capped by lack of training, Neverthe-
less. his sleep ball had the best bat
tiers of the league guessing most OF
the time. Toward the close Of the
season he took lessons from Roy
Brown, who was drafted by Portland.
Brown declared that in 1914 Stodola
would be one of the best pitchers In
the league.
The old members of the Bunny
team will miss Stodola, as he was the
most popular man in the club house
He is quiet and always is willing to
sacrifice himself for the good of the
club. The general opinion among the
fans here is that Marshalltown has
secured a good pitcher in getting
"Shine,"
