have their quotas of mutual feeding
duets. Myra Vreeland, Of East
Twenty-fourth Street, Brooklyn,
took her honeymoon trip on the front
Of a Flatbush Avenue car, which is
quite unusual, and therefore a yarn.
While the late war was in prog
ress Myra did a substantial bit of
going to community parties and
dancing with soldiers and sailors
from the Middle and Far West
Some Of the fighting youths wore
shoes averaging size twelve and
rested them only occasionally on
the floor. Myra was quite certain
that she was sacrificing at least her
feet for democracy.
Once she met a sailor from the
Texas, who lived in Montana be-
tween wars. He had large feet, be-
ing built on wholesale scale gen.
orally, and Myra was timorous. But
he said he preferred to sit or talk
out the dance instead Of making her
lame for life.
The big man from Montana came

Is turned the speedier the horse of

wheels are turned too fast, however.
the horses reverse and start the

1T costs a dime to play, and the

Private Higgins saw number of
laughing people playing the game
before 1sadore's stand. One of the
wheels was without player and he
signed up on payment of a dime.
His horse was last because he
turned the wheel, which is placed
laterally and worked by a vertical
handle, far too fast, causing the
little horse to turn repeatedly. A

Liquidation and Rccov-
cry Sets In at the Close

wild money market upset the equi-
!ibrium of the stock market Yesterday
and brought out heavy selling in vari-
Gus parts of the industrial list until
shortly beorc the close. when a spirited
rally took place, reducing the losses,
which had earlier in the day run into
rather large figures. The market
closed substantially lower, but scnti-
ment was much improved as result
OF the belated recovery, which demon
strated that stocks had not vet lost
their resiliency and that plenty of
buying power remained despite predic-
tons in many quarters that the bull
market is nearing its end
Whatever the cause of the erratic
movement in money rates yesterday
the performance certainly suggested
manipulation. Call loans renewed at
~ per cent, which was the highest
rate of the year and then the rate be-
gan to move forward steadily until by
carly afternoon 20 per cent was
ieached There the market held for a
time until brokers had been allowed to
tiil most of their immediate require
ments. when offerings suddenly il.
creased in such volume as to break
the rate to B per cent. This was the
rate sent out from the stock exchange
70 all the leading houses, although it
was later recalled and the official low
announced as 8 per cent. The official
closing rate was 10 per cent
The natural inference to be drawn
from the action of the money market
is that concerted efforts are being
made in certain banking quarters
apparently in keeping with the policy
OF the Federal Reserve board. to hold
money rates up until liquidation is
forced upon the speculative market
Whether this will result in severe
break IN prices apparently depends
upon how far the financial powers wish
to go with the liquidatinC movement.
hat 1t viii not be an easy matter to
force liquidation was indicated yester-
day by the resistance offered by the
market TO selling. On the decline
scale buying OF the best sort was in
evidence and the slightest raising of
the selling pressure resulted in a re-
hound IN prices. AS matters stand
now in Wall Street the speculative ele-
ment is worried over the money situa-
ton. but is not prepared to dump
stocks. Margin accounts are well pro
tected and q shakeout is not as easily

recovered a good portion of these

that Congress Will enact temporary

OF the roads pending the adoption Of

however, were not disposed to follow

slowed down afterwards with prices
