CHICAGO.-Thousands Of years
ago when the world was young, the
Egyptians used the sign language
in various ways to transmit
thoughts. They carved pictures on
stone tablets, pictures that convey
ed messages of love and tales Of
great adventure.
With the forward march of
civilization there has been a sweep
ing volution of the sign language.
Its most striking use today is on
the grain exchange. With the re-
cent resumption of dealing in wheat
through contracts for future de-
livery the sign language again be-
came the method by which thou
sands Of bushels are daily and
hourly bought and sold
The simple sign language plus
an infexible code of honor makes it
possible for members Of the Chi
cago Board Of Trade. a world grain
market where the law of supply and
