Signs Of Strengthening

New York, Nov. 1.-THE New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
There was considerable underlying
strength in today's short session of the
stock market, but the trading was dull
to degree and was restricted to a few
of the leading issues.s Attendance on
the floor was light and the commission
houses were practically deserted. Sem
timent, as nearly as could be gagged, ap-
peared to be cheerful. There was moth
ing of marketwise influence in the over
night Developments, nor in the news Of

Auguste Rodin was born in 1910 in
Paris But it was not until he had strug-
gled forty years that he achieved any
thing like recognition from the art
world.
He was known for his utter disre-
gard of all preconceived standards in
art. His figures were bold and some al
most crude in the force. Rodin was mar
