GILBERT HIGH SCHOOL
 NOTES

It was quite the fashion the first of last week for the boys to be adorned with two little pink shoes. They wore this adornment, however, no longer than it took them to get partner for the big Christmas party given by the high school in the audi torium last Friday evening As soon as the boys got their partners. they put pennies into the little shoes twice as many pennies as the size of their shoes. In this novel way enough money was made for the re- treatments.
 Each number on the program of the affair was one with snap to it Social chat" the first game played, broke the. ice" if there was, any, and set the fun going. The one number which seemed to be enjoyed as the hit of the evening was that put on by the different months of the year. Each one present entered into this number as his month was called upon to give a stunt. Each group

SAYS HE CAN MAKE GOLD

"H. Bond. Wholesale Manufacturer of Gold and Radium." is a business sign which may be expected soon in London If what the H. Bond in ques- tion says Is true.
 H. Bond is a disciple of the French professor who practically beggared himself trying to extract gold from mercury. After fourteen years ex- perimenting the professor believes he has succeeded and is said to have submitted a specimen of his metal to a famous professor at Oxford. whose analysis. it is asserted, showed 90 per cent pure gold and 2 per cent radium.
 Bond is joining forces with the Frenchman and predicts that he will be making gold in unlimited quanti- ties at his home in the Bayswater district of London before long.
 There is not the smallest doubt that the secret of making gold has been solved" he said. If mercury produced only gold the effect would be startling, but the fact that radium may also be obtained makes the whole scheme simply colossal"
 Pure gold costs, roughly S25 an ounce. One hundred pounds of mer-
  cleaned works out at about 70 cents a pound. The effect on gold values of such a discovery. supposing it to be practicable. numbs the imagination.
 "The almost inconceivable possi- bility of anyone being able to manu- fracture unlimited quantities of gold, |" said one. would inevitably cause a financial panic throughout the world. America, which holds most of the worlds gold. would be bankrupt and the gold fields of the world would be valueless."
 The specification for the patent registered by a Spanish doctor of me- dicine states:
 "The process consists of subject ing the mercury to electrical dis charges in a Crookes tube, in which the vacuum is sufficiently high to allow the production of cathode rays. The electrodes have their pointed ex- tremities inclined downward ad- Jacent to a depression in which the mercury is contained.
 This process is based on observa- tions from which conclude that mer- curry is an unstable substance con- sisting of minute blobules or par ticles of metallic gold. surrounded by small quantity of sulphurous an- hydride. The separation of this latter can be effected by means of Hertzian waves.
 With an induction coil which works with a primary current of fif- | teen amperes at 110 volts, the de- composition of the metal is produced as follows: If a tube is made oi glass and the coil works with a me- chanical interrupter or a Wehnelt | interrupter giving from three thous- and to four thousand breaks pei minute it is noted that the mercury undergoes partial decomposition, the | whole interior of the tube becoming ! coated with sulphurous anhydride and the mercury being reduced ir volume until finally it presents thu ! appearance of a fine dull grayisf | powder.
 This powder becomes gold. accord | ing to the specification, if you mak, | it really hot. At 1.064 degrees. centi. | grade or 1912 degrees Fahrenheit i melts, and the substance left will h

 White Christmas
 The. entertainment given by the Christian church will take place Christmas eve and Christmas night, part of the program being carried over. In view of the children's pro gram being so long, this will be given Sunday evening. Many of the Sun day school classes have planned to give the ingredients for an entire chicken dinner to people in Glendale who will have joy brought to them by the giving.
 Matinee Musical
 The musical matinee" given We'd nesday afternoon by juvenile mem bers was a most striking event. The program was varied with songs, read ing and instrumental music. The nu- dience was very appre ciativc and stated that they hoped that more such recitals would ba given from time to time. Much credit must be given Misses Rogers and Canon for the splendid showing made.

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-Tendencies tn the final markets today were ir- regular or reactionary from the De- ginning. Only a few of the standard or representative issues showed more than casual support.
 Trading in most other respects was characteristic of the holloay season Furtfer heavy selling was noted in certain speculative issues, presumably to adjust income taA losses. The investment inquiry was Raqn however. as evidenced by the steady sale of new offerings, includ- ing Louisville and Nashville bonds. lnS,.Srrials continued to be depressed asV adverse trade conditions, more cutting of prices being reported Tn steel and iron products. Oils were under constant pressure and with motors junior steels, coppers, chem scais. textiles and tobaccos regis tered extreme reactions of one to four points.
 Equipments. especially American Locomotive and General Electric were about the only stocks in which the short interest deemed it advis- able to cover contracts. The slug xish course of rails other than coal CTS reflected further neglect of those issues. Sales roo. 0.000 shares.
 The money market was inclined tc relax. although interior banks drew upon their loca. reserves for home requirements. Call loans opened at 6 per cent but eased to in the after noon with private offerings on good collateral at Az per cent.
 Tn the bond market the feature was the heaviness of foreign issues notably French municipals. which broke sharply on relatively small scales. The domestic bond list, in- clucing Liberty issues and rails, was srregularly lower Total sales, pal value. aggregated s1s,750.0oo.
 Without exception, foreign ex- changes were lower. despite cables indicating an amicable meeting be- tween the British and French prem Sers. Sterling reacted 11z cents other allied rates easing seven to ter points. The German mark also fel back with Scandinavian quotations but Eastern European rates were firm.

CHICAGO. Dec. 22.-Heavy profit taking sales on the part of recent buyers did a good deal toward bring ing about a setback in wheat prices today notwithstanding some display of strength in the market during the first half of the session.

 Before profit taking sales acquired momentum the wheat market was influenced by reports of European demand for future deliveries at Win nipeg and by talk of harvest delays in Argentina Word was at hand too that the Australian exportable sur plus would show material reduction from estimates which have been cur rent of late. Bulls put stress also On what they described as the pre- carious outlook for the domestic winter crop ard on hopes for stimu- iating effect of prospective Russian relief demans for corn. Highest prices of the day were reached after announcement that the relief bill had been put up to President Harding. Then profit-taking broadened out however, anc the market rapidly de- clined
