After the ball game the buckins
contest, which was won by Bun ver-
non, with Wallis Frost second. A
horse belonging to Frank Owens won
the prize as the hardest bucker.
In the evening there was a dance
at the Standard, given by the Ameri
can Legion, There was an enorm-
GUS crowd present and they had a
good time in spite Of the fact that
there WAS little room to dance until
late In the evening. The fireworks
We're all that was promised and
rounded out a day that was enjoyed
by everybody present.
Taken all in all the celebration
was a success and left no bad after
effects as do carniyals and similar
amusements that make the city from
time To time. 1t should be matter
of pride and good business for the
people of Mountain Home to have n
celebration of some kind on big
enough scale to make 1t worth while
at least once every summer, and
such celebration would not only
be good advertising for the town
but would bring In as much money
as 1t cost
The financial statement of the
celebration has not yet been COM
pleted but the entire expeese was
less than 5000, which amount was
raised among the business men Of
the town, with the exception Of fifty
dollars, found to be nou-collectible
after 1t was signed up, and raised
by dollar donations among residents
who were on the street the morning
Of the celebration.

The Married Teacher,
(World, New York;

WOTlQt NbW iNthil
IT should have been needless, but
It was probably wise, for the Car
negie foundation, by the report OF o
distinguished committee OF educator,
TO denounce in strong terms the re
naming prejudice against the en-
ployment of married women as
teachers,
SAYS the committee There IS
probably no work to which marriage
and normal home life could con-
tribute a qualification more essential
than they could to teaching" The
woman .teacher is too often "a de-
taehed public servant In class
apart. II married and a house
holder having children, she becomes
vitality interested and respected
factor In society"
A part Of the old prejudice against
married teahers took root In the silly
cry: LET them stay at home ana
give the girls chance" Such sacri-
fee of the skilled veteran TO the be-
ginner was unwise at any time IL
is simply ridiculous now, when hund-
reds OF thousands Of children have
no teachers at all and other hund-
reds OF thousands but inefficient SUB
stitutes. Yet In how many cities,
as In New York. are there traces OF
the old feeling, even in the formal
rules of Boards OF Education?
The position Of the married teach
er has been vindlcated by the law
by public opinion, by results. u T.
substaIned by the careful inquiry o.
the Carnegie foundation. It ought
never to be questioned again In any
enlightened community.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
An Election without a rally.

This election probably will go down
in history as one without a stock mar
ket rally. Wall Street was frankly
pleased with the election returns. but
did not express that pleasure through
the purchase OF stocks, probably be-
cause OF widespread Industrial unset
Element and price readjustments under
way. Rail stocks. led by Southern Pa
cific, were buoyantly strong yesterday.
but for reasons peculiar to themselves.
and those who purchased industrial
stocks last week on the theory that q
decisive victory for Senator Harding
would bring about a robust rally were
keenly disappointed. The consensus OF
opinion about the Street appears to be
that industry In general will have its
hardest pull before the Induction into
office OF the Republican Administra-
ton. Many believe also that Senator
Harding's election was discounted by
the market at the time OF his nomina-
ton. The fact remains that this has
been one Presidential election that has
not produced a sustained rally In
stocks.

standard OIL of California.

Those in Wall Street who hold to the
theory that the properties will be sold
and almost everybody in the Street has
some sort of theory on the develop
ment--point to the fact that the Stand
ard Oil OF California Is a very rich
corporation. with a large surplus piled
up. and that its greatest need at present
IS an adequate source of supply. The
corporation earned approximately $751;
oo0, 900 last year on a capitalization OF
500. 100000. Its surplus at the end OF
the year was s5S.000.O00 and is said to
approximate the S75.O0o.0o0 mark. In
some quarters the recent financing or
Standard Oil Of New Jersey, whereby
II acquired some $20o.0oo,o0o, is looked
On as n link In the chain of evidence
which points to the belief that Standard
OIL interests will become the ultimate
owners of the Southern Pacific's oil
lands.

Money Continues Tight.

The factor of tight money. just now
the controlling one In the market, does
not appear to be one whit changed
from what Is was a week ago. The
money rate continues extremely high and
speculative borrowings are frowned on.
Thus far the expected flow Of money
back from the country after crop NOV
ing work has not commenced. Money
ruled at per cent. all day. Government
Withdrawals were sS.253.000 and notices
we're sent to the banks that an addi-
tlonal s6,1S7.000 would be taken to-day.
