NEW YORK, Sept. 3O.-There was further heavy speculation in stocks but the complexion of the market under went a marked change. War shares were less prominent although some of those issues, particularly Westinghouse Crucible Steel, I-ackaWanna Steel, Con- tinental Can, and American Can cO<i- tributed materially to today's totals.
 As a whole, however, these specialties
 reflected a more cautious attitude talk
 en by financial institutions regarding
 their availability as collateral for
 loans. Metal shares were the central
 feature Inspiration Copper being the most active. Anaconda, Tennessee,
 Utah, Guggenheim Exploration, Chino and Ray were also in steady demand
 and made substantial advances. The list was put to a severe test at midday when reports of the sinking of an
 American ship in the White Sea caused
 war shares suddenly to recede from 5 to 10 points, while Union Pacific
 dropped points to 130. Almost imme
 diately when it became apparent the incident was without relation to inter.
 national conditions prices recovered, in
 some instances attaining higher points,

Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, who, in private life, who is Mrs, Steph- en Townsend, will pass her sixty-sixth milestone today. The popular novel, ist was born Nov. 24, 1s49. in Man chester England, and her maiden name was Frances Eliza Hodgson. It was just a, half g. century ago that and shortly after this girl began the career of a writer which has made her name famous throughout the English speaking world. Although she is now well advanced in years, she has maintained her youthful spirits in fullest measure, as evidenced by her latest book, tFThe Lost Prince which fairly bubbles with the exuber- ance and romance of youth. Perhaps Mrs. Burnett has discovered, on her annual visit to ttthe fairy isles,'' of Burmuda, the fountain of perpetual youth. Mrs Burnett-or Mrs. Hodg- son, as she then was-had the joy of seeing her stories in the magazines when she was only seventeen years old, and ever since has been a pro- life writer. IIn~1 1873 she became the bride of Dr. L.. M. Burnett, and the young couple settled in Washington, which city Mrs. Burnett has since made her home when not in the Ser mudas or abroad, after marriage life of twenty-three years Dr. Burnett the family moved to Knoxville, Tenn. and his gifted wife. agreed to dis agrees and Mrs Burnett sobtained decree of divorce in 1898. Two years later she married another medical man, pr. Stephen Towsend, an Eng fish surgeon, with whom shet coIta- borated in the writing of s.NixieS q "A Lady of Quality and other plays. Mrs Burnett's first novel, That Lass O. I.owrie's s., was published in 1871, after she had served a long appren- ticeship in writing short stories. Sew eraI other volumes were followed, and in 1886 she attained an internation- al reputation with her little Lord Fauntleroy,, s'In Connection With the DeWillougfby Claim t'The Dawn of Tonnmorrow ]" z tALttle Princess and with score of other novels. as well as a number of dramas. has added largely to her army of devoted ad- nirers. Her latest novel, 5'sThe Lost Prince, is a fairy tale, breathing chivalrous romance. and a delightful refuge from the worlxaday world.

The first observance of Thanksgiv- ing Day in the United States on the last Thursday in November, the date now universally adopted. was in New England, where the custom was in- augurated eighty4six years ago today, in 1829 The Thanksgiving festival dates back to the early colonial days in New England, and was first ob- served in October. 1921. The first ofaeiaI Thanksgiving was celebrated in July, 1928. The first Thanksgiving proclamation of President of the United States was by George Wash : ington iii 1795. In the South the festival was sneered at as New England superstition,'' and it was not until 1855 that the day was at all ob- served in the South. No presidential proclamations were issued from the time of Madison until Lincoln's ad- rrlinistration. The last Thursday in November was ofi1ciaIly chosen ass a nationalts Thanksgiving day, thanks largely to the propaganda carried on by Mrs. Sarah J. Hale of Philadelphia, who convinced President Lincoln of the desirability of such an observance
