pECENTLY I was asked which race
~ considered the hardest of my
career. That's a difficult question to
decide, and while I was thinking it
over my friend suggested the intercol-
lcgiate half mile of 1915, after I had
run the quarter mile and set a worlds
record.
1t is not always the fastest race
that is the hardest. A As second quar-
ter miller may punish himself more in
So second "440" than he does when
he is going at his best. Such things
depend on condition and elements. Then,
! too, after a man runs a hard race and
wins it ceases to be hard. The men
tai condition is such that he forgcts the
physical hardships.
Victory SOothes
Sitting in an easy chair and looking
back through the haze of three years,
neither the quarter nor the half mile in
the intcrCOllcgatPs of 1916 seem hard.

I would rather take the 4fo than the

was a worlds record and the Baltimore
affair slow.

BUSINESS NOTES

Shortage Of the better grades Of all
Kinds of leather continues to trouble
manufacturers. Consignments OF goat
skins, sheepskins calfskins and hides
are received regularly in the market,
but not in sufficient quantities to meet
requirements. The general market Is
strong and active, with tanners re.
ported to be far behind on deliveries.
According to mill agents, the forth.
coming spring production Of woolen
goods is almost all sold upon the allot-
ment basis. Jobbers, who are the only
ones having any accumulation of win
! ter goods on hand, report slight demand
for immediate use. Dizziness in the
women's garment industries has greatly
curtailed the demand for cloth in that
field.
Trading was brisk in the gray or
unfinished cotton fabrics market last
week. Converters placed substantial
orders for these materials, both for
immediate and future delivery, running
as far ahead as next July. The ruling
price of "a Cos, Il standard gray fab
ric, was firm most of the week, at IS
cents a yard This was an advance of
a cent a yard over prices Of the pre-
vious week.
Under pressure OF heavy demands
for raw silk by mills in this country
and abroad. the price of the fiber rose
to dizzy heights last week. Shinshui
No. l.. standard grade, passed the
S11 mark, an advance of about so
cents over the week previous, and
/ kansai double extra came within Is
cents of reaching $40. The shortness
of the worlds supply with an ever in -
creasing demand for finished goods is
the reason given for the heavy buying
by mills.
The beginning of the spring whole
sale selling season in mems clothing
was accomplished quietly last week.
More manufacturers are expected to be
ready to take spring orders this week.
Many of the houses have adopted the
allotment plan in serving their GUS
toners and are limiting the amount Of
merchandise they will permit individual
retailers to purchase. This is a result
of short stocks of spring fabrics and
the labor situation, which the manu-
facturers believe will curtail produc-
tion during the months to come.
