This applies to the economically weak and the

it. In fact it is Of the best Imaginable

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

Chicago, Oct. 21.-Sharp down
turns in the value of wheat took
place today largely as result of
likelihood that British strike trou-

wheat market after midday when

workers had decided to join the
coal miners strike unless the gov

FRIDAY. OCTOBER ~, 1920

Good and evil planetary influ-
cnces conflict today, according to
astrology. While Jupiter and the
Sun are in benefic aspect, Venus
and Uranus are adverse
1t is a most threatening sway
for love affairs, inclining men and
woman toward foolish and even
reckless sentimentality.
Gossip may be easily started dur
ing this government of the stars,
for jealousy is readily aroused
when Uranus has evil power.
Trade and commerce should be
reasonably fortunate. New enter
prises are subject to the best d.
rection possible.
While big business is likely to
benefit from the planetary direc-
ton there will he much distress
among certain classes of wage
earners.
1t is lucky for all who seek en-
ployment in shops or factories.
There will be many changes in per-
sonnet in long established plants.
Jupiter in rising position and the
opposition of Saturn causes aStrol-
ogers to prophesy that attacks on
the government at Washington
will be made even after election,
for congress is to be an exceed
ingly inharmonious body.
Again the seers give warning
that there may be a severe furry
in Wall Street, but they foretell
nothing of long duration.
New resources are to be discov-
cred in the earth. much to the
benefit of the South.
Railways continue under a men,
acing sign that seems to presase
trouble affecting employees. Acct
dents are foreshadowed also.
Persons whose birthdate it is
should avoid changes during the
coming year. They have the aug
ury of prosperity if. they remain in
places in which they are accus-
toned to work. rts#
Children born on this day may
be restless, sensitive and difficult
to manage, but they are likelys to
have good possibilities.

WALL Street
(By Tho Associated Press)

New York, Oct. 21.-Stocks were
dull but steady at the opening OF
today's trading. becoming more
active and firmer toward the mid
session, but easing very generally
later when advices from London
foreshadowed an early extension of
the British industrial crisis.
The latter situation was respon-
sible for another setback in foreign
exchange, the rate on London fall
ing almost cents from its recent
rally with irregular reversals in re-
mittances to most other European
centers.
The stock market again was es-
sentially professional in character,
further absence of constructive
factors in the domestic situation
initiating against any initiative for
the long account.

vorites as oils, steelS, equipments
and affiliated specialties was trace

Investment transportations were
irregular Or heavy at best. as were
several of the motors and their sub
salaries, textiles, feathers, chem
icals and papers. Reactions in the
last hour ranged from one to al
most five points. with moderate
rallies on short covering just be-
fore the close. Sales amounted to
$50, 900 shares.
In the money market there were
fewer offerings of two and three
months paper and little buying of
merchants paper. while call money
held at per cent during the day.
Transactions were the strongest
feature of the bond market, Lib
erty issues evincing irregularity
with most other domestic issues,
while United Kingdoms eased.

WRITING THE CLUB PAPER,

please give me suggestions on
how to write club paper" writes
a reader friend who signs herself
Nervous"
could possible be of greater as
slstance if this inquirer had stated
what kind of club hers is and told
me something of the conditions
SUCH as the length of time usually
allotted to the speakers, the size of
room or hall in which the speech
was to be delivered, etcetera. How
ever, there are certain rules which
the writer of any kind of club
pager may profitably follow, and |
VIII set them down here:
The first thing to do when one
has ones topic in hand, is to go to
a public library and look UP every
possible reference to the subject.
Write these data down verbatim
and bring them home to study
over. The next step is to stretch
q strong piece of Irvine over ones
desk from hooks or nails driven
into the wall or tied to some high
pieces of furniture. Bend hairplns
in the shape of a long letter IS" SO
that one end of the hairpin will
hook over the taut line and the
other end may be used to hang
small squares of paper upon. These
small squares of paper will have
written on them the important bits
of information to be written into"
the speech as well as appropriate
anecdotes, terse ways of express
ing an idea, figures of speech, and
other notes of this nature. This
CLOTHES line" system of keeping
notes is employed by many writer's
and is more satisfactory than jot-
ting ones notes down in a note
book because it places the material
right before the eyes and enables
the writer to form a succession in
which the notes will be used.
For instance, if the club paper
is to be upon Community Play
grounds; Shall our Town Have
