WHO stands in the middle of the

WHO takes all night at box office

RAYMOND ROBINS LECTURES ON
SOCIAL CHRISTIANITY.

S(f;IAl CHRIS IlANII H.
Raymond Robins gave the people
that crowded the West Side Sunday
Night Club forum in the Third Pres
byterian Church last night an eff
fective lecture on our failure to ap-
ply social Christianity.
Because of our present social and
industrial systems, many of the
mothers as well as the fathers in
Chicago are forced to toll nine or ten
hours day in some factory" said
Mr.. Robins. "They are in their homes
only at night, and practically the only
mothers and fathers their children
know are the older children who live
in the same tenement building with
them. These children learn their
morals in the streets and, as result,
thousands Of criminals are being
turned out in Chicago every year be-
cause we fail to apply social Chris
tianity in our daily lives.
"Fhis is a social age. In order
that we may live in a city like Chi
cago it is necessary for each to con-
slider the other in order that the
greatest good may come to the
greatest number"

wheat situation is clearing rapidly and
there is a rush on the part of cotton
writer's to pooh pooh the recent panic
opinions on cotton prices. This con-
stitutes a valuable sidelight on public
opinion. While the United Kingdom
is fairly we'll supplied with wheat,
steady movement of wheat and some
oats is considered assured. Chicago

gested higher oats prices. Corn belt
temperatures were mainly 90 to "a on
Monday with 100 to 104 in Iowa and
Nebraska. This hot spell Will likely
produce complaints from the south
west and more bulges. For the long
pull. however. December and May corn
are a good price and are considered a
bulge-sale. Ohio and northern Illinois
received some rains yesterday. Chi
cago corn prices at so to 50 are cents
below recent tops due to increased
movement. The inquiry into high food
costs does not promise much success
in cutting the provision level. The
liberal declines of last week have
brought forth a fresh batch of opin-
ions that all grains are cheap consid-
ering the nearly universal war. st.
Louis reports there is no corn in south
ern Illinois. Rains might make some
fodder About half the corn reports
in this morning show some gain due
to rains. Best reports come from
Ohio. One of the biggest farmers in

is 10 per cent and cash corn selling
80 cents. Some of the local crowd fig

The corn market gives evidence OF

lapses after bulges should be awaited
by investors. The seven surplus

provement to the growing corn.
From Chicago down to Nation the
crop looks decidedly better than one
year ago. There is a poor section
around Kankakee. Champaign county
will raise more corn than anticipated.
Rains have been a great help.
The corn plant in vast sections of
the corn belt though fired, is well ad-
vanced and is not to be compared with
the burning up of 1913. Thus-the
seven states may raise Soo,oo0,oO0
