In view OF the great rise In Rock
Island stock the attitude OF the former
holders Of the Rock Island collaterals
is important. II was altogether un-
likely that having gone 10 the trouble
and expense of converting their bonds
into stocks they would sell near the
bottom. but the rise was very swift.
II would Ice interesting 10 know whether
they sold heavily n the top or whether
they are stlll holding their stock as an
investment after going through SO much.
II the stock rises still higher this point
will become more acute When their
income was cut off by default Of interest
there was very heavy liquidation by
the bondholders. Undoubtedly all the
weaker holders were soon eliminated.
Who bought on the way down from
80 20 20? II will be recalled that there
were frequent reports OF insiders SELL
ing Rock Island company stocks and
getting Into the bonds because the col
lateral bonds were the real key 10 the
property. The question most frequently
asked now Is whether the present ad-
vance in tho stock Is the beginning OF
a campaign to make that investment
good.

Benediction.
L. V. Woodlee, of Tracy City, made
the principal address at 1;3O. He rep
resented his county in the recent leg
islature, has held county Office, is pre-
sident of the Grundy County Conven-
ton, and an all around hustler for
progress. He gave an interesting ad-
dress. He proposes to get enough peo-
Pile down from Tracy City some time
at one Of these conventions to get one
arranged for the mountain.
In the business session E. A. Cross,
of Jasper, was elected vice-president,
and Byron Graham, secretary II easul =
er of the organization In matter Of
location for next session, Sequachee
was decided upon as the next meeting
place, w. G. Moore being very act
i've in this respect for meeting at Sc
auachee. WhitweIl and Cedar Springs
were other places desiring the conven-
ton. Tho next meeting will be held
Sunday. Oct, 10. = .a......
The Marion County Singing Conven-
ton, as we'll as the other convention,
seem to be be successes, aud there is
plenty room enough for two. and both
should work in harmony. The attend
ance as above stated, at this conven-
tion, while large, would have been
tremendous, if the weather had been
more favorable, for, as President G.
P. Layne, who acted as Master of Ger
emonies stated, the Whitwell delega-
tion alone would have filled the church
and there would have been no room
for the others. Singing seems to have
hit the people and the air is full of
melody.
