! NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-In somewhat
desultory fashion and with a good
deal of hesitation at the start, trad
ing in the restricted stock exchange
market today resulted in much the
same tendency as Saturday to MAIN
tain prices above the official minimum
and not far below the prices Of July
90. Some bonds, such as the Inter
borough Metropolitan Az (Which are
not much subject to potential Europ-
can liquidation) advanced a point or
more: but as a rule. the swing OF
prices was narrow. The market end
ed firm.
Taking Wall street as a whole, the
underlying cheerfulness which attend
ed the partial resumption Of trading
was in evidence again The fact or
chief Importance in this experimental
resumption Of stock exchange busl-
ness is that so definite a step has
been taken towards restoration OF
normal conditions. There will neces-
sarilv be more or less eventual disio-
cation of values. in the adapting OF
prices for stocks and bonds to the nov
economic conditions created by 1he
war and not allowed reflection in the
market during the four past months
But 1t is reasonably certain, in tho
light of all experience, that the pro-
cess will be much less violent and dis
turbing than a good part Of the COM
munity had imagined while the stock
exchange was shut down. II this is
so. the sooner the investment mar
ket is allowed deliberately to adjust
itself to its actual surroundings. the
better for all concerned.

Those War Songs.

Just why certain songs should be
sung during a war is hard to under
stand, that is the psychology of the
thing. In the civil war THE Girl ]
Left Behind Me-" was the most popu
lar song and in the Spanish-American
war, ''Therell Be a Hot Time in the
Old Town Tonight" was sung by the
soldiers. In the present war the Eng
fish soldiers are singing "Tipperary.'
the chorus of which runs:
Its long way to Tipperary
Its long way to go;
It's long way to Tipperary.
To the sweetest girl know!
Goodby, Picadilly
Farewell, Lester Square!
It's long, long way to Tipperary,
But my hearts right there"
The song is an American product,
having been written by Harry Will
