Lighting up whole city at night IS quite modern invention, although illumination was used in some of the ancient cities. Paris and London dis pute the priority in the matter Of mod ern street lighting. London claims to have lighted it's streets with lanterns as early as 1414, but this contention IS disputed. During the sixteenth cen tury lanterns for street lighting were provided at the public cost in Paris.

 But the facs that crop conditions, according to the latest summary, are satisfactory seems to warrel't optim- ism. Corn is said to have made splen- did progress and to be in fine con dition.. Cotton, though late, is doing well. While Spring Wheat is making satisfactory progress, good reports are received from the districts in which the threshing of winter wheat has begun. A good crop year nay help the situation materially, though at this time, it is difficult to see just how the crops no matter how good they may be, are going to be moved to trade channels in an orderly way or just what it is going to cost the farmer to market his foods.

The Cockade.

The cockade, an ornament or knot of ribbon pr rosette of leather, was origi- nally worn as military or naval deco ration or as the badge of political party. COckades made of ribbons of the national colOrs were worn by sol diers of the national wars of the eight eenth century. In England after the expulsion of the Stuart dynasty the white cockade became the badge of the adherents of the exiled house in opposition to the orange of Nassau and the black of Hanover. From the hats of the military it passed to those of the civil servants of the crown. Then as headgear changed the use of the distinction was confined to servants. The black cOckade on the hats of off cers' servants was introduced by George I,

White and Red Roses Blended.

The most interesting combination of roses is that of the union of the white rose of York with the red rose of Lancaster after the long struggle between those two factions when the red rose might have represented the blood that was shed and the other one the condition of the people bled white by the wars. To cement the peace Henry of Lancaster welded pretty Elizabeth of York and a clev- CT gardener of old England blended the two roses and made a new one, striped red and white. We have 1t in this country where it Is still called the York and Lancaster, though not every beholder realizes the story held in its fragrant petals.

4 ReUieW 0t LOnths Business Conditions

The desire of business to trim it's sails so that it might weather any ap- preaching squall was more definitely emphasized last month than at any time since the Spring of 1916. This was particularly noticeable toward the latter part of the month when large industries began cutting down their forces, as did the Pennsylvania Railroad in discharging 12,00O men and as did the American Woolen Mills which released large number of it's less efficient employees.
 In other instances, large industries moved to safe guard their business by slackening their volume of produc- tion. The strain brought about by the scarcity of capital has by now af- fected all industries. Whether that strain can be relieved by decreased production remains to be seen, but it would seem that the cost to do busi- ness in industries with a fixed over head could be lessened more success fully by an increase of volume rather than by a decrease. That the strain would be relieved by increased pro- duction under normal conditions of transportation is undoubtedly true, but today facilities are not available to transfer any greater volume of goods from the point of production to the point of consumption than now is being handled. At least that is the way some industrial economists ar- alyze the situation.
 There has been some slight im- provement in railroad situation with in the month and commodities are moving more freely into trade chan- nels. Continued improvement should ease the situation materially. Mean while, the problem before business is to produce as much as possible at the lowest possible margin of cost and at the same time to keep production in healthy condition.
 The security market, despite fore casts to the contrary, still has failed to develop definite trend. During the month dullness and irregularity were the characteristics which ruled the stock exchange and although sen timent was optimistic, it was scarcely borne out by actual trading. Deal ings on the stock exchange seem to indicates the desire of a great many holders of gilt edged securities to liquidate in order to obtain cash with which to continue operations.
 Bonds of industrial concerns have undoubtedly reached low ebb in the tide which swept over the securities market three months ago and that is the thing on which traders doubt

 ] Cancellations of orders by retail merchants to wholesalers and ;obbers seem to be increasing in number and volume. That is due in part, and perhaps mainly, to the fact that the retailer has belief that prices art going to be lower. These cancella- tions have resulted in some instances in partial shutdowns and the adop- tion of a part time basis by some manufacturing industries, particular ly in the textile industry. Another reason for cancellation is, probably, that the retailers last season antici- l pated much larger volume of busi- ness than was realized this summer, and in their eagerness to have ade- quate merchandise with which to sup ply the hoped for demand, rushed their orders to manufacturers on the basis of a hope which was at best guess work.
 There is no doubt but that a great many customers have reached the con- clusion that prices are too high and that they can restrain their further advance, if not influence their reduc- tion, by abstaining from further pur- chases. That feeling has extended to the retail merchant in his dealings with the wholesale jobber to a large degree, and, of course, has direct bearing on the cancellation of orders. The backbone of the industrial strutur( -credit-gained no strength during the month. Banks continued to hold up interest rates and the rate for call money in Wall Street held at from 8 to 9 per cent throughout the month. Industrial loans were very difficult to obtain and then only at rates that were in many instances equivalent to 10 per cent and many borrowers of sterling worth and Of known financial stability were fore ed to pay that price. It remains to be seen just how that situation will af feet the public, on which, of course, it will ultimately be reflected.
 Small businesses are feeling the credit stringency more and more as evidenced by the Dun and Bradstreet reports, as to the increasing number of business failures. Bankruptcy proceedings have increased, according to these reports, considerably within Pthe last thirty day period as compared fwith the previous thirty day period and the corresponding time last year. Any forecast at this time as to the trend of business for the next quarter would be nothing more than a wild guess, as there are many conflicting agencies at work, such as the possible coal strike, car shortage due to move

FIRST AID TRAINING
 TO MEN AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching
 Hundreds of Thousands Life- Saving Methods. .

The purpose of instruction In First Aid to the injured offered by the Amer lean Red Cross is to train men and women to administer First Aid treat msnt promptly and intelligently when emergencies demand 1t. First Aid treatment is not intended to take the place of a physicians service. A sur geon should always be summoned as . precautionary measure where there is an injury of any consequence, but when one cannot be secured few min utes' delay may mean fatality. In such . case a person trained in First Aid Is invaluable not only to the in- dividual, but through him to the com munity in which hs lives. .......
 There is perhaps no way sf ascer- taining the number of deaths or seri- GUS disablements which result from lack of proper safeguards or prompt emergency treatment. It is safe to as- sert they number thousands daily. There can be no doubt that the appli- cation of First Aid methods to each ease would immeasurably tighten tho countryis toll of suffering and death.
 The dissemination of First Aid train ing and information has already pro- Aueed . farreaching and beneficial ln- Ausnce in the prevention of accidents en railroads, in mines and in great in- dustrial concerns. .......
 The benent of . widespread knowl- edge of First Aid in the event of . great disaster, such as . train wreck, m explosion, an earthQuike, etc, is obvious. Laymen who have had First Aid training can render efficient as- sistance. Many lives may depend upon such emergency care.
 Red Cross First Aid work includes t1) the formation and conduct, through Red Cross chapters, of classes for ln- struchon in accident prevention and First Aid to the injured among men and women in all communities and in every industry; (2) the introduction of courses of instruction In high schools and colleges.
 The Red Cross Is prepared to supply First Aid books and equipment at req sonable prices.
 Every person in this country able to do so should. in his own interest, re- ceive Red Cross First Aid instruction. Information about the course and in- struction classes may be had at the nearest chapter headquarters.
