OILS ACTIVE AGAIN
IN CURB MARKET
Some Issues Establish New
Highs, but Recede on
Profit Taking.

Activity in the curb market yesterday
again was directed to the Independent
oil group. In the early trading they
continued to advance, some Of them es-
tablishing new high records, but after
the first hour profit taking occurred
and the advances were lost, although
generally small advances were shown on
the day. Trading was less active.
International Petroleum topped It's
previous high record and then declined a
point below Fridays closing quotation.
Sinclair Gulf was a strong feature, SELL
ing to q new high record and maintain
ing its gain. Houston OIL and Royal
Dutch also were firm. and Metropolitan
Petroleum sold at Its highest level in
several months.
Former war stocks were less active,
but firm. Submarine Boat sold to new
high for the present movement, and
Aetna Explosives touched s. The spe-
cialties were dull, but steady. and less
interest was displayed in tho motor
group.
Bonds were quiet. with the exception

COTTON PRICES DECLINE.
After RsIlyin9 Ease on at Close
From rs to 80 Points.

An opening break in the cotton mar
ket was followed by rather a sharp rally
put there seemed to be little demand ex-
cept TO cover shorts for over the week
end. and prices eased of again in the
later trading. March contracts sold UP
from 27.04c to 27.43c. and closed at
27o9c., with the general list closing
barely steady at net decline of Is to
so points.
The reports OF sweeping reductions In
Government freight rates may have pro-
NOTED little buying on the initial de-
cline, but evidently failed to make any
decided impression on sentiment. The
market opened steady at "A decliie Of 3
TO 40 points under IA renewal of Fridays
selling movement. The early offerings
were well taken around the initial fig-
ures and the market firmed UP shortly
after the call, with active months not
only recovering the losses. but selling
some IL to is points net higher. This
advance met increased offerings, part
or which appeared to come from the
South. and the market was unsettled in
the late trading. closing at approx
mately the low point OF the day on most
positions.

worked upward late In the morning on
little weakened covering. closing at
net declines of to Is points. The local

RIO DE JANEIRO.-(By MaiD q.
The United States is winning cas-
lily over all opponents in the trade
war which began in Brazil with the
close of hostilities in Europe, accord
ing to statistics just issued by the
ministry of finance.
During the first five months of
this year, the United States received
more than one-third of Brazil's to-
tai expectation, and supplied nearly
two-thirds of the imports to Brazil.
The figures also show enormous. gains
in Brazil-United States trade over all
previous records.
The gains were made in sDite Of a
vicious anti-American propaganda
which was published in the Brazilian
press through paid advertisements
for about a year. and over the most
strenuous efforts of European com
mercial interests to regain lost
ground in the markets of this coun.
try. The secret of success of the
United States in not only holding its
own but in making new gains is due
to the fact that while Europe was
sending trade missions" and enter
tanning missions from this country,
the United States was mlnufactur-
ing, transporting and delivering the
merchandise.
Nc European country made any
remarkable gains in exports to Bra
1il, and France is the only country
that made any notable advance in
absorbing Brazil's exports, that
country receiving nearly half of all
of Bra2il's shipments to Europe.
The much-touted Japanese invasion
of the Brazilian markets does not
loom very large on the statistics al
though the imports from Japan show
q steady increase. Brazil's trade
with other South American countries
Showed small changes.

TWO CHILDREN

20, mamma, you take it and do it for
me-"
Said my little girl, bursting in
tears where she sat,
And the bright little squares that we
hoped soon would be
A quilt for her dolly, were thrust
in my lap
With laborious stitches, oft ripped
and reserved,
She had counted, when finished,
the joy that would come,
And the little soiled blocks were
literally strewed
With bright drops of blood from
her needle-pricked thumb.
But 0, little daughter, more precious
to me
Are the first clumsy efforts Of
your baby hands,
Than all the fine needlework,
howe'er handsome it be,
Though l search for all time and
in various lands.
When inspecting my life, o, Parent
above,
Do my efforts at good seem like
clumsy patchwork?
| pray look with favor and plying
love
On my blundering stitches that
oft-times have hurt

working out problems of practical
value to farm and others. Dr.. W. F.
Durand, professor OF mechanical en-
gineering at Stanford university, who

Doctor Durand told his hearers. Gen

regard to research work in progress.
It will be ascertained not only just
what work is now being done but
what is being contemplated.
The council will also act as a SER
vice bureau for the government de-

research workers are best qualified
to handle definite problems. The
council desires to be of aid to re.
search workers by furnishing them

Austria and Hungary shall make
good their ravages By restocking the
fields and forests of France with
game has been formulated by Count
Clary, president of the st. Hubert

OF which is placed at $4,000. 600
