Local Stocks High But Brokers
 Expect Them to Go Higher
Furnished by Richter & Co.)

IT uT1lSneQ Dy fLlCnter N'O.) We have had probably the most ac- tive market in our local stocks during the last week. since the activity of last fall. The advances have extended to practically all of our New Britain stocks and the investment demand has caused advances of anywhere from one to six points The leader for the past two or three days has been Ian ders Frary & Clark which has sold up about ten points within the last week, and the market closed today at S2 bid, 84 asked There Is no particu- lar rumor in connection with this rise but it is only reasonable to expect that before the first of the year an increase in dividend is possible due to the ex- cellent business enjoyed by the com pany at the present time Union Manufacturing company has advanced from 95 to 102 closing at 1O1 bid, 103 asked today. New Britain Machine is also strong being quoted 90 bid 91 asked, which is an advance of four points over last weeks quotation. American Hardware is up a point and is quoted 137h bid 139 asked. Stan ley Works has followed the procession and is up about seven points. 93 Is bid, 95 asked. Quite demand sprang up today for Stanley Rule & Level, which carried the price to 435, closing at 427 bid, 430 asked. This is an advance of about ten points within the last two days. There have been quite a few transactions in North & Judd with quotations at 93 bid, 94 aked. We believe this stock is out of line with the rest of the locals and should sell Higher in the near future. Sales of Tratlt & Hine during the week have ranged from 40 to AZ.
 The war stocks have been quiet but firm, Colts being quoted S75 bid 887 asked, with sales in between Scovill Manufacturing company sold as high as $50 last week and reacted to 635 out closed strong today at GAO bid, 645 asked. Standard Screw holds firm at 395 bid, 405 asked. Billings & Spen- Ger, after advancing twenty points to S4S has reacted and is quoted 140 bid, 143 asked with sales in between. American Brass holds it's recent gain of forty points well, there being a firm bid in the market of 341 with sales at ?42 and 343.
 There has been quite a little buying of Russell Manufacturing company at prices ranging from 270 to 28O. This company is located in Middletown and has capitalization of $9OO,OOO. Earn 1rgs are reported at the rate of S10O,- 900 per month. Dividends are paid, at the rate of 2 per cent. per month. It is believed that stock will sell well above 300
 Although our local stocks seem high we believe they can be bought now for material advance between now and the first of the year. The proportion of investment purchases to the speculative purchases is much larger than usual which is a very strong feature to the market.

(From Bismarck (N. D. Tribune.)
 Show gran'ma a good time when she comes to visit yOu-and don't let her tell you she wants to stay at home with the lliddies while you go traips- ing all over town.
 Don't ask her: Do you want tn go down to the Best Cafe for dinner?'
 She'll say "No!"-of course she will.
 Don't ask her. Take her.
 She'll enjoy it.
 Don't lay granma on the shelf just because you know she'll stay there if you leave her.
