Getting By
Some men will let the weather prey
Upon their temper day by day,
And act just like the sky;
They'll go about with facial pains
Almost every time it rains,
But such men don't get by.
Another kind will wear a smile
Regardless of the weather's style,
With sparkles in their eye;
They radiate with bits of cheer,
Until you like to have them near,
And such men do get by.

All heta,- Are strong.
All the metal was strong from copper
to zinc. They are strengthened in re-
sponse to the renewed buying for the ac-
count of the allies. American munition

Among the companies working on or
ders of this kind are the American Car
Foundry, Crucible Steel, American Loco
motive, Baldwin Locomotive, New York
Air Brake and American Can. In addi-
ton to the regular orders that are now
coming as a matter OF routine, American
Can has within the last few days taken
a very important order through another
company that was unable to handle 1t.
AS one result of this, 1t may be that
the long expected move in Can will now
develop. Car and Foundry is also being
purchased by an impressive list of GUS
toners.

HAS firm CLOSE
Optimism Intense as Market
Again Lives Up to Profess

CBy the International News service.)
New York, Aug. S-OHce more the
stock market has lived up to all profess
sional expectations. Profit taking was
heavy in the first hour today and the
market was reactionary. When every
body decided there was going to be a
material setback, good buying made its
appearance and the close was firm. This
was very encouraging and the profess
sionals will come to the Street tomorrow
prepared to buy freely in expectation of
good news from the railway presidents
on Monday and a further growth Of
market optimism.
In several quarters of the market to-
day optimism was so intense that It
could not be repressed. This was par
ticularly so in the United Fruit and
Marine preferred. There was the best
kind of buying in these stocks, as well
as in Crucible, American Can, Car
Foundry. Colorado Fuel, Smelters,
Great Northern Ore and Republic Iron.
The oil stocks were purposely let alone
in anticipation of an upward movement
later. Export reports from Canada dis
close that disaster has struck the Do
mInion's wheat fields. In many places
only a half crop is being produced.
The grain market recorded its opinion
Of SIC to 4 1-Sc in wheat options. Bad
reports in the corn fields of the South
western States caused an advance of
from 1-4c to 3-4c in corn options.
The financial world is still of the same
opinion regarding a railroad strike 1t
believes no strike possible. It is firmly
convinced that the railroads will force
arbitration, but it is disappointed at the
stubbOrnness of the men, who, the bank
ers believe would quickly have their
eight hour day if they would only arbi-
trate. The railroad presidents know it
IS coming. but they want it to come in

eral situation in textiles, as in most other
markets save lumber. is such that the
producers can readily tell buyers to either
take or leave the goods at the prices
quoted.
Confidence in heavy distribution of
goods this fall is undiminished, mail or
der houses keep on reporting eYce1,en+
sales, retail trade is good, labor is scarce
and certainly as restive as at any time
during the present boom period, even
though wages are at record levels II
is evident that foreign buying of steel
has virtually smoked out domestic con-
sumers, who have come into the market
in a noteworthy way this week. and mig
iron, laggard for sometime, has become
relatively active, while copper, lead and
smelter have taken on new life.
