Papa Chimpanzee Is Banished From Cage When His
Wild Howls of Delight Tell World That Second
Infant of Kind Has Been Born i'm America
Mother Gets Tender Care

Suzettc, the trained chimpanzee Of
the Bronx Geological Park, ushered
into the world yesterday the second of
her kind ever to be born in America
It's a girl.
The happy event took place month
ahead of time and Bona, the proud
father, was the only one present. Like
any normal husband, Bona went out
CT his head completely.
His wild howls brought keepers on
the run to the outside cage, where he
and his wife were CHARTERED. They
round the happy father jumping up
and down in one corner, shrieking his
head off, and in another Suzette with
her baby held tightly in her arms.
DR.. W. Reid Blair, the park surgeon,
was sent for at once. He Immediately
ordered Bona from the room. In his
own cage the father recovered, some
what, and his hysterical yelps changed

Get Most Comfortable Cage
No human infant, short of royalty,
ever stirred up the fuss that Suzette's
offspring then caused in the Primate
House.
She and her mother were carried
tenderly to the most comfortable cage.
This was surrounded by screens and

So when we say that our

means a great deal.
The blouses are all made

made, with careful little

Georgette crepe blouses

Crepe de chine blouses of

well-groomed effect of these
little blouses, $40; were

commodity prices for the past week
A decline of nearly 6 per cent dur
ing September and of 10 per cent
from the high level of the earlier part
Of the year was shown by Brad
streets.
Commenting on this showing the
review says:
"In September, as in August, prices
went off heavily, more sharply than
they did in August on May of this
year, or in the January following the
armistice.
SIN the latter month they dropped
40 per cent, in May of this year Al
per cent and in August as per cent.
Gas regards the September decline.
it may be said that ten groups OF
commodities declined, while only
two advanced"
The review of R. G. Dunn & Co.
for the past week said: 4
While a somewhat firmer feeling
prevailed in a few important COM
nodities this week, yet there was no
check, as a whole, to the downward
trend sof prices in the primary mar
kets, there being eighty-two recess
sions in the list of quotations COM
piled, against fifteen advances. Lib
eral receipts of moderate domestic
and export demand, due mainly to
the widespread expectation of further
price reductions, pressed heavily on
the grain markets and new low levels
for the movement were recorded in
wheat, corn, rye, oats and barley"
