of the new year has not continued, the
orders received in March being less than
those placed on the books for February.

to have received its share of the for

Equipment shares showed strength and
substantial gains. Although the orders
by railroads for new rolling stock are
very small. many Of the equipment COM
panies are busy turning out shrapnel and
other war material for foreign govern
ments. An authority stated today that
many Of these companies that had never
before made shrapnel were doing a SUBJ
stantial business on this account. 1t was
learned at the New York offices Of the
Canadian Car and Foundry Company
that thirty American concerns were busy
helping it fill the $50. 900 o0Os shrapnel and
explosive orders received from the Rus
sian government. The equipment compa-

orders for shrapnel and war material.

 A military dance, given by the ad- vanced class and led by Miss Doro- thy wo1ffe as captain, was next in order. The captain wore an attractive white military dancing costume while the other members of the class wore white skirts and bright red military coats.
 Dorothy Phelan was the soIoist m the snow flake dance and this dainty miss led the members of the begin ners' class, who were gowned in snow intricate steps of this graceful dance with surprising ease.
 Quiet different in character, but bright and entertaining as always, was the Irish Wasl1erwoman,1 ,1 in which the classes participated led by Florentine Burns and Charles Bowers. Even the tiniest members of the class were in the line, garbed in bright green and white costumes and joined in the mer- ry folk dance.
 The Dutch ballet, in which the m embers of the advanced class wore the costume of Dutch boys and girls even to the heavy wooden shoes was one of the yprettiest and most novel of the whole evening.

 The barefoot dancers, who wore cos tumes of white over pink, with flowing hair bound by rosebuds, executed their graceful movements in palm garden, dancing around the palm plants. The effect was exceptionally charming.
 A number of handsome baskets and bouduetssof flowers were presented the young people Of the class at the end of the festivities. Following the un- usual exhibition dancing was enjoyed for some time by all the guests.
