New York Oct. 15-Dun's review of
trade for the week tomorrow will say:
With cross currents diminishing in
force. the tide Of business is rising at an
accelerated pace and an era of wide
spread activity is in prospect OF late
industrial expansion has been phenome-
nally rapid.
Reports from nearly all sections Of the
country tell OF the unchecked growth of
new enterprises. Assurance of agricul-
tural success, together with almost un-
limited financial resources. has given the
commercial world the confidence essential
to the development Of national pros
perity, and the notable Improvement in
sentiment is now more clearly reflected
in the volume OF current transactions
The latter. with few exceptions, are
steadily enlarging. as is evidenced by
the comparisons OF bank clearinSs. rail-
road earnings. commodity prices. untitled
steel tonnage, idle freight cars and other
statistical barometers.
A rush of actual orders Is taxing the
capacity of mills and furnaces to the
utmost. With operations IN the great
basic industry on a scale seldom. II ever.
equaled, additions to working forces are
imperative and the increase in the num-
Der of men at work means a broadening
of consumptive requirements.
Retail trade. in the last step IN the
movement from producer to consumer. Is
further stimulated by seasonable weather
and in some directions distribution OF
fall merchandise is exceeding expecta-
tions. This is particularly true OF foot
wear and wearing apparel in general.
Domestic buying of leather Is also appre-
cIably large and foreign contracts con-
tinue a feature. while more customers
have appeared in the dry goods markets
and future needs are anticipated with
greater freedom. Although in most quar-
ters the trend of quotations Is distinctly
inward. in many cases advanced wage
schedules offset the enhanced cost of

siderable degree of frmness and rates have ad-

market. However. there is undercurrent Of
more optimistic sentiment On account, of the
perceptibe improvement in general business. and
many brokers are anticipating increased offerings

THE SUPPER CLUB.

0 he of the prettiest and most en-
joyabie entertainments of the holt
day season was the meeting of the
December Supper Club at which Mrs.
Henry Wyatt and Mrs. Henry Wyatt,
Jr., were hostesses.
The club was entertained in the
lovely home of DR.. and Mrs. ]. H.
Patton.
The decorations were most at
tractive. Christmas bells over
arches and doorways, garlands of
pretty reds and green's festooned on
walls and over windows, bands of
holly and mistletoe in artistic pro-
fusion combined to give the house
gay and festive holiday air
The guests were seated at small
tables in the living room, dining
room and den. A delicious FOUR
course turkey dinner was served.
Each guest had been asked to
bring some small gift to be exchang-
ed, Sight Unseen, After dinner
there was much lively swapping of
these little packages so daintily tied
in their tissue papers and ribbons.
Upon opening these several of the la
dies found themselves the proud pos
SCISSORS of forbidden things, pipes,
cigarettes and other equally useful
articles while many of the men
turned out to be owners of powder
rags, hair pins and curling tongs.
While the fun was still in progress
running high the door pealed forth
and there stood the charming Santa
Claus himself. With a salute to all
and joyous smile he strobe to the
study door and flinging it open re-
vealed the wonders of a Christmas
tree. The guests crowded in and
there amid shouts of laughter he de-
livered to each guest an appropriate
gift. Some gifts, he declared he
had been forced to bring because GER
tain people had simply worried the
soul out of him. Mrs. Bolan Brum-
by had not let him rest, imploring
him for a "chest of silver, while
Mrs. Harry DuPre's heart was re-
j0iced over a diamond hat pin for
which she had been begging so long.
Mr.. Fred Morris received a large
horn with the apt quotations, "He
that tooteth not his own horn, the
same shall remain untooted." Mrs.
Fred Morris was made happy with
new spring hat Mrs. James T. An
dersOn had never before been %
pleased as she was with her gift,
vanity box. Some people," said
Santa, ARE made happy with trifles,
while others want the earth, where
upon he presented Mr. A. V. Cortel-
you with a Cadillac 49,. Miss Annie
Field received a whistle with this
verse:
Take this little whistle and make
a cheerful noise,
Cause all you have to do is to
whistle for the boys.
Miss Agnes Smith received a much
needed gift, a gun whose card said
when 1 80 out to promenade

To keep the boys away.
When this delightful Santa un-
masked he proved to be Mr. George

further added to by recitations by
