WEEKLY GRAIN AND PROVISIONS

Chicago, Nov. 20.-War prices on
grain met their Waterloo this week.
Uneasiness over the general business
outlook proved more than an offset
for bullish factors, Notwithstanding
the many big cuts which the value
of cereals had recently undergone.
Compared with a week ago. wheat
this morning was down 3 "a TO o
cents, corn was off IA to 81 cents,
and oats 3Ia to 4l4 cents. In pro-
visions the net charges varied from
80 cents decline to a rise of 81.
At the beginning Of the week ma
terial upturns in wheat prices took
place owing largely to signs of Eu-
ropean buying and to the assumption
that bolshevik military successes had
rendered improbable for long time
any imported grains from Russia.
There was also much talk of an ef-
fort to arrange credits in this coun-
try to enlarge exports TO Germany
Confidence based on such grounds
did not last and aggressive selling
set in.
Weakness in corn and oats started
with n sharp break in cash corr
prices ut Kansas city. Later liquida'
tion became general.

as an artist and the following poem !
indicates that her capacities in the
field OF poesy were Of no mean order
(l.incs to her husband)
Your arm has ever been rourd me,
dear.
And your heart has been so near
so near,
That ] have not felt the cold winds
blast,
And the years have spccdcd too FAST
too fast.
They have brought you honors, these
flying years;
They have brought misfortune, and
sometimes tears.
The honors you've laid at my will
ing feet
And the tears you nave banishod with
kisses sweet.
In the days when you needed, my
strong young life
You called me your steadfast and
helpful wife,
And now, when your tenderest care
need,
You are my lover and strength, in
deed.
AS I've watched you trace in the
starry spheres
The course Of the orbits that mark
the years
SO in my life | have traced your
love
AS true and pure as the stars above
On beautiful Love that has hallowed
the years
That has strengthened my strength
and has banished my tears.
| Illuminate still the dark pathway
before,
And guide our safe footsteps to yon-
der bright shore.
We shall go heart TO heart and hand
clasped in hand
I TO fathom the depths of the we ri
unknown land.
Winnie Ream HoXic.
(This poem was found among
other beautiful lines. written by Mrs
Hoxie. after she had passed ovei
to the summer land.)

mus for Statuary Hall in the capitol
at Washington for the state of Okla

OF making two, other statues for
Statuary Hall, one of President Lin
coin and. one of Governor Kirkwood
OF Iowa. and upon no other artist
in the whole world has such a collec-
ton of honors been bestowed.
a movement is being instituted to
honor distinguished Americans in this
manner. on the occasion of notable
days in the career Of the person so
selected for distinction, and the Lea
que of American Penwomen Of which
Mrs HoXie was a member and past
president, has asked that Mrs. Hoxie's
name be among those so honored.
1t is felt that thus bringing these
notable persons to the attention of
the young persons in the schools, will
be of great benefit to them in thus
familiarizing them with facts in
the times Of those who have helped
make history for our land.
Mrs. Hoxie died on November 90

and cracks. then grow and develop with an evil vigor that nothing can withstand. They never die, never are starved out, these fine. hairlike roots. The big stones never crush or Kill them. Year by year, century by cen tury, their fierce strong life Is fostered by the fierce heat and fierce rains of the tropics until they overthrow and destroy everything in their pathway. One fearful root that wandered in its course through a whole corridor of mighty carvings was 90 meters in length, with the circumference of an elephant. And the tree Is useless, too just spongy. porous wood, unfit for anything.
 ''For an hour we wandered through dim, ruined chambers, scrambled and climbed over fallen pillars and carv- ings of great beauty and delicate, in- tricate design--all in utter ruin and the fig tree Of destruction fin supreme control. It was good to reach our elephants again and to leave behind that overwhelmed and evil spot.
 "Only the most important and beau tiful ruins are being reclaimed from the forest, those in AngkOr Thom. as well as the Angkor Wat. These out lying ones are still left as originally discovered, buried and smOthered by the everlasting forest. To me they are far more interesting in this sinister setting. choked and swamped by the mighty growth of the tropical jungle. They afford more thrills to me who am not an archeologist than the picked up, restored and cleared ruins that the government is reclaiming.
 "Of course, one cannot see them very well, these buried temples, swamped in undergrowth. enveloped by twi- light gloom. And as I scramble over fallen images over barbaric sculp- lures, my mind is largely set on ser pents. And when we reach fairly open space 1t turns to monkeys-the agile black gibbons that hoot and leap overhead at our coming, furious at the intrusion upon their solitude. Between snakes and monkeys there are times when l forget to admire these old temples, supposed to he among the most marvellous in the world"

BURIED IN JUNGLE
Tropic Growth Overwhelmed City
 of Angler Thom.
Devastation Wrought, Especially by the Deadly Fig Tree, Is So Complete as to Be Almost
 Unbelievable.

In the heart of Cambodia, one of the five provinces of French Indo-China lie the ruins of the royal city of Ang- kor Thom, built somewhere between the fifth and seventh centuries. and of the marvellous temple, AngkOr Wat The architecture, which is Hindu. is being disentangled from jungle growths by French archeologists. The city and temple are thought to have been built by the Khmers. a long-vanished race which certainly has no connection with the Cambodians of the present day.
 Writing in Harper's, Ellen N. La Motte describes a trip through the jungle on an elephant in order to visit one of the more remote ruins.
 Tn about ten minutes" she writes i've found ourselves climbing over the fallen stones of an immense temple that lay completely buried and over grown by the forest. So thick was the foliage that only a dim twilight pre- vailed. The supreme loneliness of that buried temple, the utter isolation and silence that enveloped it. were appal- ling, and our scrambling feet and hushed voices only intensified the aw- ful stillness-the silence of centuries
 "The horror and vindictiveness of the jungle! Everywhere giant stones were overthrown, pushed out of place and toppled over in heaps through the sinister vitality of that deadly tree, the fig tree of the ruins The roots of this tree begin as innocent, hairlke filaments which insnuate themselves through the crevices of the great stones and slip through tiny openings
