DullED
By IRREGULAR
TREND OF DAY

New York, April 23.-The stock
market became dull today when
prices developed an irregular
trend. Announcement that the
Philadelphia Federal Reserve bank
had advanced its discount rate on
treasury certificates probably con-
tributed to the curtailment of bust
ness. Further scattered selling rep
resenting belated liquidation from
interior points was reported by
commission houses. United States
Steel eased almost two points. Cru
chile Steel Al; General Motors 5
and several of the equipments and
shippings ! to 81 points. Much Of
this loss was recovered and q num-
Der OF actual gains were made by
apecialties when calls to loans
opened at per cent. ALI the bonds
were better, the first AS gaining
one per cent.

Approxinating the Finished Wheel.

A wheel -is generally a circular frame work on disk made to TO- tate on an axis and; employed to perform a rotary motion and re- duce. friction. a A
 Nearly everyone is, familiar with cold, crude way in which the 1n- dians constructed their vehicle of locomotion. It consisted of two poles secured to either side of a draught around which the latter dragged over the ground.
 The. revolving wheel keeps frtc- ton down to the minimum But there is difference in wheels. One has but to compare the clumsy wooden wheel of the old. Roman chariot with the ball-bearing, wire spoke. pneumatic-tired and prop erly fabricated wheel of today.
 As a BUSINESS. this store is constantly trying b approximate the perfect rotation of the present day finished wheel.
 We are ever alert to reduce fric- ton, ever looking to the lubrica- ton. the strength and efficiency of each and every spoke, that the daily rotation of our business shall in all aspects be thorough, smooth, correct, exact and nicely caucu- lated as the ball bearing wheel. the finished product.

Chairman Hays and Delaware in
an eulogy, pointing out the many
advantages of the latter and pre-
dieting that history would write
Will H. Hays as the greatest ma
tional chairman that has ever oc-
cupied that position. Senator L.
Heisler Ball approved a code of
ideals for nation and persons, but
damned "the idealist," saying the
last seven years. convinced him of
the latter's inability to keep his
feet on the ground.
Regretting the threatened de-
struction of the constitution of
internationalism, Congressman
Caleb R. Layton claimed that the
question to be decided in this cam
paign is whether we will follow
the admonitions and the policies
of the great men of the Republic
or the vain dreams of president,
who mad for power and fame,
would lead us into the paths of
Lenine and Trotsky.
"For this struggle the Republi-
can party needs a standard bearer.
This is the sort Of man he should
be-a sane, frank and common
sense American, without a single
microbe in his brain from the pro-
fessional chair. When elected, he
will reverently take the oath of
office to support the constitution,
inspired by true and sincere re-
gard for its principles. He will
not take that oath and afterward
seek to destroy what he has sworn
to uphold"
Mayor William G. Taylor closed
the speechmaking with an address
in which he condemned the pre-
ference of some members of the
party to play golf or loll in club
to the more important and ardu-
Gus task of. getting out on prim-
airy day and garnering the votes.
Attendance was restricted to
membership, speakers and mem
bers of the press. Membership in
the club covers almost the entire
state and more than 800 were pres
ent.
