GOSSIP OF

Frank A. vanderlip says inherently
the American business outlook il sound, !,
Dut the next six. years cannot be 80
pounteously prosperous as the last six, 4,
which were influenced by unusual war
conditions. and unless American people
curtail luxurious extravaganza there
VIII be difficulties ahead. Tie sooner
this nation realizes this and gets back
TO hard facts of economic life and TO a
sounder business morality the better It
will be.
This statement caused me to do a
good bit of thinking" said an official
OF one of the larger downtown banking
institutions yesterday. ''in that Il sort
Of upsets a little pet theory / have been
nursing and which to some extent has
been confirmed and borne out by statis-
tics furnished by reliable and active
business interests.
In other words, until I read Mr..
Vanderlip's statement had about
reached the conclusion that the country,
or at least business. was suffering from
altogether too much economy, and un :
less there was some change j had felt
business Of the country would be Sc
riously injured. You will recall every :
body. big and little, has been pr. aching
economy from the housetOps ever since
the hrmistice was signed. and during the
war every one was called upon and
asked to do with as little as possible.
I'm making an informal analysis Of
the business situation recently, 1t was
my conclusion. after careful delibera- :
ton. that every man. woman and child.
regardless Of their social or financial
position. had strongly acquired the
economy habit. The result Of 1t has
been clearly shown In nearly all lines
of the trade, although certain business
interests aye still making an effort to
create the impression Of still existing
shortage. which does not exist.
Every business man will tell you
the people are buying virtually nothing.
not only as to luxuries. but as to the
necessities Of life as well. The effect Is
present. notwithstanding denials to the

terday.
What is more. having learned By
very expensive experience, I long since
reached the happy conclusion that acci /.
dents always break In favor Of bear
crowds, and during twenty years
dabbling ! always make It a practice
never to be In the market overnight.
You can never tell what Is going to
turn up between sunset and sunrise.
That belief was strongly confirmed
by today's performance. During the
early part Of the afternoon sort OF
felt. in my bones that altogether too
much JOY talk was being made con .
cerning the big coup which had been
engineered against the bear crowd on
Monday afternoon. The sudden turn :
ing Of the tables was like bolt from
the clear blue for the bear camp, but
I felt the Joy party was going a BIT too
fast. So. following the hunch. l quickly
closed out all my commitments.

under the wire announcing the Bethle
hem Motors receivership. I just spent
the rest Of the afternoon shaking hands

Absentoes Unusually Largo

Judging from the complaints OF
brokers, especially from the bond houses,
more people are taking vacation this
summer than ever before. The senior
member of one of the large uptown
bond houses stated yesterday he had
been unable to reach single client he
sought to find to offer an unusually at
tractive investment. "Seems everybody
has packed up and gone out of town, "
he said.
officials of banking institutions make
the same complaints. Possibly the an L.
swer is to be found In the letting down
of the bars and restrictions which had
been placed against travel by the war
conditions. THE TRADER.

EVEN JEFFERSON COULD ERR
Great Statesman on Record as Having
Pulled "Boner" in Matter of
Natural History.

1t Is related that when Thomas
Jefferson journeyed from Monticello
to Philadelphia, on his way to take
the oath of Office as vice-president. he
carried lot of bones in his bagga ge.
The bones, alleged to be those of a
mammoth, had been found in Green
brier county, Va, and sent to Month
cello, where they were set up by JEFF
ferson, who, it appears, entertained
a somewhat exaggerated notion of his
attainments In natural history, and
who stood sponsor for the bones as
those of "a carnivOrous-clawed animal
entirely unknown to science"
1t was not until after Jefferson
reached Philadelphia that he was I'M
deceived, for at glance the learned
DR.. Wistar saw that they were the
bones Of the common sloth, several
specimens of which he showed the
Virginian.
1t has been pointed out that, indI-
rectly, no less naturalist than the
great Button may have been respon-
sible for Jefferson's error. It was the
Virginian's practice to send Button
specimens and information, and with
the subtle flattery Of courtler the
French naturalist wrote:
II should have consulted you, sir,
before publishing my natural history,
and then 1 should have been sure of
the facts"

Romance Of Childhood.

The little boy who hunts Indians Is
every little boy in America. Along
the alley warpaths of the congested
city and out on the rolling prairies
of the back pasture the relentless
pursuit goes on day after day. Each
night millions of little hearts are up
lifted in thanksgiving that the red
skinned savages Turk about the world
to be hunted. An occasional green
apple nightmare in which the hunter
is scalped and tied to the stake only
serves to enhance the thrill Of fol-
lowing the trail next afternoon as
soon as school Is out.
The eye Of the six-year-old which
makes piece of barrel hoop look

POULTRY NOTES

Get the chicks out-of-doors as soon
as possible.
AS a rule ducks are easier to brood
artificially than are chickens.
You cannot get good egg yields
from your hens unless you give the
young chicks good care.
The Campine Is a breed of Euro
pean origin that is now having wave
of popularity in this country.
If tankage Is good and wholesome,
the chickens like II and do well with
1t as an addition to the ration.
The egg Is largely composed Of wa
ter, therefore, the hen should have an
abundance Of water, fresh and clean.
Hawks never trouble ducks and the
old mother duck will fight all intrud-
ers, such as cats, dogs and chickens.
Most of the trouble with lice on
small chicks can be eliminated by do
Ing away with the hens for broodlng
purposes.
