The Cecilian Trio is happy combi-
nation-Helen Cowell, whose violin
playing is a never ending source of
entertainment, Esther Bagg whose
excellent cello music pleases the most
critical, and Frances Adelman, whose
work at the piano is one of the fea-
lures of the program. The continued
excellence of their performance is
largely due to the fact that they love
their work. The Cecilian Trio is
known TO many Chautauqua audiences
and in bringing this charming group
to our Community Chautauqua, the
management feels pleased.
They will be heard on the third day
of our Community Chautauqua.

COTTONS-Sone Eridence
OF Slight Reductions

Hopeful signs Of moderate reduc-
ton in prices of cotton goods from
now on are beginning to manifest
themselves in the market. Yarn spin
ners are reported to have shaded their
prices slightly on combed peeler yarns
of the high grades and on fine carded
yarns. Coarse yarns still remain at
their Old levels
Buyers Of cotton goods. particularly
large jobbers, say they have placed
some July and August contracts for
fine sheetings at slightly lower prices
than mills were willing TO consider
earlier this month
Jobbers, IS rule, are short Of
goods and need new merchandise for
filing in their fall stocks, they say,
but are hesitating to place orders.

SILK S---Nore Buying
IN Goods Market

While actual buying of silk goods At
wholesale is still on a limited basis,
manufacturers and jobbers report slight
" increased activity which is giving a
better tone to the trade More orders
for high grade goods for immediate de-
livery are being booked. Retailers and
garment manufacturers are not yet
ready to operate for future delivery,
but some of the largest silk producers
feel that future buying VIII begin next
month. They base this conviction on
reports that stocks on the shelves Of
retailers are being rapidly depleted
through cut urice sales. a few larG2
manufacturers assert that the late fail
buying Will have a dilatory effect on
deliveries, and some say that orders
placed next month can scarcely be de-
lvered before September 30.
Some retailers are said to be taking
large losses on silk stocks. In Los
Angeles, where a price-cutting COM
petition has assumed an almost war-hke
aspect, the retailers are selling a certain
brand Of sport six for Sl.C5 a yard,
which cost them from 81 20 S. yard

Somewhat Disconnected

Questton--Will YOU kindly give me- your
opinion on the American Telephone and
Telegraph collateral IS? Are they of the
highest grade of Investment for woman ?
| would appreciate also II you would give
once again your opinion on the United
states Rubber IS because since getting
some Of these they have gone off nearly,
ten points.-A. f. ID.
Answer-American Telephone Com
pany collateral trust per cent bonds
are secured by stocks Of affiliated and
subsidiary companies, having market
value at all times of 1873 1-3 per cent
Of the par value of the outstanding
bonds. While the bonds are not Of the
highest grade we believe them to be
safe. United States Rubber per cent
bonds are, in effect first mortgage on
the company's properties subject TO but
50 900 of prior liens. We regard
them as sound issue. All forms of
Investment have been very weak,
due to the high money rates and the
continued demand for new capital by
various corporations, particularly the
railroads. When United States govern
ment securities sell on basis to yield
over per cent corporation and rail
road bonds could not be expected to
behave any differently than they have
of late.

Not for Permanent Investment

Of common stock If the santa cecilia
Sugar Corporatton.-F. g. =.
ASswer-Santa Cecilia Sugar, like
most other sugar companies, has en-
joyed considerable prosperity of late
The high price Of the commodity has
placed such corporations in a position
to earn enormous sums in many in
stances. How long this will last is
question. In view Of the present coun-
try wide agitation to reduce living costs
it will be strange indeed if the price
OF sugar escapes the cutting process
Therefore, while Santa Cecilia Sugar
may appear an attractive stock al the
present time, we do not advise its pur-
chase for permanent Investment.

Maxwell Motor

Question: own ten Maxwell Motor
common certificates. original shares
bought around $50. Why does the certih-
original share? What do you think OF
the company? Would it be advisable TO
buy more at the present level to lower my
average cost?--B. L, VI.
Answer-Maxwell Motor stock sells
higher than the certificates, because it
is not bound by any agreement. There
tanning sufficient deposits of securities
to make the merger with Chalmers eff
fective. The company is a fair Garner,
although it is said that it is in need of
new capital. We regard the stock as
very speculative and would not attempt
TO express any opinion as to its posi-
bilities.

Baltimore G. Ohio per
cent bonds, partly secured by Reading
stock, appear to offer a very fair in

is necessary for the entire issue to be
called at 1929. Kelly Springfield per

secured. 1t is not q seasoned stock,
but the company reports ample earn
