Cnlcago, Dec. 17.-Active buying
ana sharply higher prices in the
corn market resulted today from
publish sentiment due largely to
Ihe passage of the Edge foreign

part OF longs led. however, to a
reaction. In the setback, most Of

enlng figures. which ranged from
&c to 2Ac higher. with January
1914 to 1.39A, and May 1854 to
1854, were followed by moderate
further upturns before the market
sagged.
Later. the market rallied sharp
ly, Influenced by further steep up
turns in British exchange. The
close was nervous, Ia to 3hc net
higher, with January at LAOS to
1.40% and May at 1865 to 1877.
In provisions, subsequently, pork
scored decided upturn, but lard

In the oats, heavy realizing pre-
vented any display of strength. de-
spite messages telling Of continued
export demand. After opening Nc

XMAS MAILS
SHOW RESULT

Voices Pleasure at Go.
Operatfon-Mails Show
Increase.

Patrons Of the Aledo postoffice
are praised by Postmaster Charles
E. Duvall for their evident COOPER
alive spirit in aiding to alleviate
the last minute rush Of the mails.
Already the mails have increased
in volume almost double the regu-
lar. amount and the postal clerks
are grateful for this will be sure
to cause a decrease in the amount
usual few days before Xmas.
With the holiday only week off
and the mails running as smoothly
as they are it is certain that next
week the carriers will not be quite
so heavily burdened as in years
gone by. The people of other cities
are showing the same, considera-
ton as the residents here as is
evinced by the large incoming
mails. On this mornings mail train
there was easily twice as much
mail as there was on the train two
weeks ago.
Packages on both incoming and
outgoing mails are being wrapped
in accordance with the rules set
down by. the postal department.
Next week the Xmas tidings cards
and letters will be in the mail and
it is hoped that observance of the
tinsel post card rule will be evil
dent. The postofi1ce authorities
would regret having to discard any
cards bearing tidings, but it will
be necessary, in compliance with
the law, unless people refrain
fro msending tinseled cards with
out being enclosed in envelopes.

Plans; VIII Observe Day With
eSrvices.

Christmas in Aledo schools and
churches will be a gala event, il
plans uder way materialize. The
local high and grade schools will
have their exercises next Friday.
including a unique get-to-gether
for the high school students.
Ray c. Pellet. principal OF the
high school, has laid plans for a
Christmas tree and the exchange
of gifts by the students of the up
per and lower classes Of the
school. The plan is to have each
student buy a gift and write a
poem about the received. The stu
dents will each be given the name
of a scholar in a different class
and the gift must not exceed IS
cents in price. Following the pro-
gram which Mr.. Pellet has outlined
the schools will be dismissed to re-
convene Monday, Jan. 5.
The city churches, due to the
fact that much preparation was
lost on account of the fuel restric-
lions. will not be able to have as
complete program as was at first
expected. Some of the churches
had planned cantatas but were
forced to abandon this and substi-
tute a miscellaneous program. The
choirs are preparing special music
and even though the plans are not
as yet complete the churches are
sure to live up to the reputation
of having as good Christmas ser
vice as ever any city had.
