Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter.

New York, March 6-The market ,reopened today for trading under the new style contract and naturally some little confusion ensued. Most of the trad ing was in the nature of transfers from the old style contracts into the new. The difference between the two con- tracts was smaller than generally ex pected and ran down as low as 30 points in the Octobers at one time. It would seem advisable to transfer into the new as rapidly as possible because it will necessarily folloy that trading will become difficult in the old and fluctu- ations wide and cratic.

DRINKING FOUNTAIN

Teachers in the Roberts school as we'll as the school children are greatly con- cerned over inadequate means provided for getting water for drinking purposes. The drinking fountain in the yard has been broken and discarded, and after a freeze during the winter the water sup ply on the campus has been cut off en- tirely, so that it is difficult for the children at play to get drinking water. The matter will be laid before the board of education at the next meeting, and it is thought that the trouble will be remedied.

Hurry is not characteristic OF the

we're not always immune from the
habit. The Dutch artist Vanderstraa-

short cuts and saving time.
Vanderstraaten had little difhculty'
it is said, in painting in day 30 land
scapes the size of an ordinary sheet
Of drawing paper. He would surround
himself with pots Of paint, each OF
which had its particular purpose-one
for the clouds, one for the grass, one
for the shadows. When he was ready
TO begin painting he called his assist
ant. ''Boy, a cloud ~ and the lad speed
lily brought the desired pot.
Vanderstraaten with thick brush
quickly transferred the clouds to the
canvas. With the finishing strokes ne
called, "There are the clouds; bring
the grass :! And so it went wlthout
q moments waste of time, until the
30 landscapes were finished.
On occasions Vanderstraaten woulu

would cut the strip into pieces OF va
