FLAG ETIQUETTE

There is a strict etiquette
governing the display of Old
Glory, which many Abilene
; ties have overlooked.
Raise the flag at sunrise
or after, never before.
Lower the flag at sunset.
When draping the flag
against the side of room
or building, place the blue
field always to the north or
east.
Good taste requires that
bunting be draped or hung
with the red at the top, fol-
lowed by the white and the
blue in accordance with the
heraldic colors of the flag.
1t is a mark of disrespect to
allow the flag to fly during
the night A flag flown up
side down is signal of dis
tress.

Hog Market Is Dull
With Prices Going Down

Chicago, Dec. 15-The hog market
was dull today with prices 25 to 10
cents lower than Friday. The bulk
went between s15.50 and $3.50. A top
Of $3.50 was made.
Cattle were lower. Good to choice
steers sold between SO and sl6 Veal
calves made a top of $1625. Every
branch of the cattle trade seemed to
, be demoralized. Live muttons held
steady. Prime quoted s16.75. Sheep
sold around s14, while other grades
of mutton sold at lower prices. Mutt
ton trading Is expected to be brisk
next week.
! Present prices for all sorts of hogs
show decline from last week and
traders are not expecting the market
to pick up during the next weeks
trading. Prices were about $1.30 low
er than a week ago. The weekend
decline in hogs has been the most
decided bear raid on the market of
the winter packing season,
Both butcher cattle and steers have
lost anywhere between 80 cents and
81 since last weeks close. Bulls also
were so cents lower. Slaughtering fa-
cilities are congested.
Muttons were generally steady with
last weeks prices. The close today
was however not up to the high point

Bank Statement Shows Increases in

By BROADAN WALL.

i New York, Dec. 15.-The actual bank

stocks were heavy throughout the
session, closing near the now prices
without any sign Of trading vitality
1T any moment during the day. Steel
lost more than two points. Consoli-
Gated Gas, Peoples Gas and Ameri-
can Telephone broke into new low
locality. Business was on a hgn.
Gale. with only about 125.0OO shares
changing hands during the entire ses-
mon.
The reason for the heaviness of the
market was the selling of stocks
bought in the bargain collapse Of pre-
Hvious days. Particularly did there
seem to be selling Of stocks bought to
relieve the distress in several quar-
tiers on Thursday. One house actually
|lfailed and several others were in need
3of assistance and got it. The fear
| that others might be in trouble was
Iprobably the true cause and the only
one for the sharp rally Of Friday.
great part of that rally was lost In
ltoday's brief session.
| Investigation today failed to disclose
any improvement OF sentiment in
banking circles justifying expecta-
tions of a permanent improvement In
the market. Important interests are
kteIling persons that stocks are cheap
and that II they will purchase and
hold they are sure to make handsome
profits. But there is an absence OF
that big buying that always takes
place before a market turns perma-
nently.
Silver stocks are being doomed in
i the advertising Of get-rich-quick bro
/ kers and professional swindlers to
such an extent that the director of the
mint issued a statement today warn
ing the public that there Is no in
itestion Of monetizing silver at this
time or giving free coinage to 1t.
