Tbales seems to have given himself more entirely to this school than to any of his other undertakings. There is a legend that he never married, and when his mother pressed him to do so he said: Tt is not yet time After his youth was passed she again urged him to marry and he said: Tt is no longer time.
 Many of the subjects taught in his school, such as astronomy. geometry and geography. show the influence of Egypt and Phoenicia: but the philoso- phy was probably an original product, for while some of the sciences were somewhat advanced. the philosophy was apparently a first attempt at an explanation of the origin of the world. It originated a movement which cul- minated more than a century later in the idealism of Plato.

We may perhaps understand some ?. thing of the attitude of the common people toward Thales' school of phil osophy from the story of the olo woman who laughed when the master fell backward into a ditch after gazing too long at the stars. The old woman not only laughed, but she is said 10 have called after him: "If you cannot see what is under your feet. how can you understand what is in heaven?'
 The geography and astronomy taught in this school were very primi tive: The earth was flat; the sun circled around it horizontally, being concealed at night by high hills. One writer of the time describes the world in the following poetical way: God makes a mantle, large and fair, and embroiders on it earth and ocean and oceans dwellings,

Prices of various raw materials and manufactured products, notwithstand
 ing their already abnormal position, have risen further, and the competitive bidding that has developed in some quarters may conceivably cause addi
 tional increases. while speculative pur- chasing in anticipation of even higher levels to follow has been a factor in the current movement. Although other influences have contributed. yet the main torce behind the upward swing of prices, as has been the case for many months, is the pressing call for supplies with which to meet actual do- mestic and foreign requirements. With the renewed demoralization in inter national exchange, resulting in new

FINANCIAL AND
 MARKETS

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-The course of today's atock market upset the calculations of those speculative inter csts who hoped or feared, according to their commitments, that the higher discount rates would provoke fresh liquidation.
 Prices were mainly lower at the out set. tending still lower for some of the mere mercurial issues later, but, m general, changes were nominal. with no definite trend at the dull and ir- regular end.
 The new rates of discount Of the fed erai reserve bank resulted in q slight advance of private bank acceptances. but otherwise the money market was practically undisturhed. Supplies of call money were abundant al six per cent, though rising to eight per cenr in the final hour, and time funds eased trifie. albeit again obtainable only in small amounts.
 Two stocks stood out in the day $ languid dealings and were typical of the general movement. Crucible Steel registered an extreme advance of $ i3 points. most of which was held. while General Motors declined seven points, With very little recovery.
 Sales amounted to 550. GOO shares.
