MIR. SKATERS LETTER.

Editor Morning Journal, Albuquer-
que, N. M.
4 Apropos of the editorial Canned
Labor" appearing in your issue Of
the Sth instant in which you VEN
ture, among other observations of
interest, to challenge a recent cor
respondents declaration that all
of the fruits of industry belongs to
labor" and "that neither capital
nor executive ability are entitled to
any participation" permit me to
state that your Interpretation of
the term labor" is not altogether
consonant with that implied by
your able correspondent. Your APP
plication of the word, according to
my light. narrows 1t so that the
connotation intended by our Plumb
Plan booster is quite vitiated.

participation in the fruits of indus

We had hoped that unspeakable skunk, big

STA leaving them to face the music alone, would
never return to these United States. Now he talks
of coming back to America.

as bad Bill" and there those who call him
yellow Bill' which, it would seem, is properly
descriptive for that he finds food scarce and
living hard in Russia, he wants to desert Lenine
and Trotzky, just he did his own comrades here
in the shadow Of the penitentiary.
But it is indeed laughable to note that big
Bill" finds the heaven of Russia" to which he
fled, less desirable than the stone walls of prI-
son in poor old down-trodden capitalistc America.

DOING OVER YOUR HARD
WHO'D FLOORS.

My recent articles on doing over
a ceiling and tinting a wall,
brought so many responses from
my readers that l believe an ar
ticle on the renewing Of floors
would be appreciated. There Is no
doubt about it, we women have
reached the point when we no
longer leave these hard tasks Tor
our men-folks or for professional
decorators to do; we do them our
selves! With high prices prevailing
in every direction. the majority
of us have come to the conclusion
that If we want beautiful home-
interiors we must simply learn the
secrets Of wall, floor and ceiling
renewal ourselves.
The woods commonly used for
hardwood flooring are birch,
maple, oak and hard pine. Ash
and chestnut are used occasional
ly.
New hardwood floors require
several operations before the fin
ish is complete. In such open
grained woods as oak, ash. chest
nut and birch, the foundation for
the final finish is obtained by
Filling" with q good slick paste
filler; this simply means applying
some substance to fill up the
pores of the wood so that the
whole is one complete, smooth
surface. A good slick filler has
finely powdered, needlelike quartz
particles which imbed themselves
firmly in the wood. All staining
desired, other than the shade of
the filler itself, should be done
before this filler is applied. and
with good oil stain.
Assuming that the floor was
sandpapered before this filler was
applied, it is now necessary to
sandpaper it again, but this time
more lightly, about "a hours af-
ter applying the filler. Then APP

THE MARKETS


New York. July 14.-Business on
the stock exchange today register
ed the low ebb of summer apathy,
as indicated by the volume of
transactions. which barely totaled
100000 shares.
Price changes among standard
stocks were in keeping with these
stagnant conditions, holding with
in narrow limits, but speculative
issues of the steel. equipment, oil,
motors and utility groups were
subjected to wider fluctuations I'M
der professional pressure.
Mexican Petroleum again as
serted its leadership, both as to
activity and irregularity Of move
ment. Its extreme range Of about
five points eliminated in a net loss
of 8 * points. Oils and the general
list were at lowest levels in the
later dealings.
Specific instances of weakness
included Western Union Telegraph
at net loss Of 81 points, also
Crucible, Bethlehem and United
States Steel. General Electric,
Chandler and Sumatra Tobacco.
Rails of the better type moved
within a small area but eased ir-
regularly at the close. The money
market repeated it's course of yes
terday, all loans holding at per
cent until the final hour when 6h
per cent was paid. The per cent
rate for the loans was shaded to
SIX with Liberty bonds as collat-
eral, but time accommodations
were limited to short periods.
Dealers reported very light OPP
erations in foreign exchange, Lon
don and the continent again react
ing In favor of this market. The
proposed German credit by Ameri-
can bankers for purchases of food
stuffs and other raw materials eff
fected no material change in Ger
man and Austrian rates.
The feature of the bond market
was the ready sale Of the new state
of Michigan 20-year SIX issue.
Liberty and Victory issues were
firm to strong, but rails and in
dustrials again lacked definite
trend. United Kingdom SIS and

tone of foreign bonds. Total sales

And the woods in q swoon,
The wood thrush lifts its poignant plant
Against the rose gold MOON

Which seems the burden Atys bore
In glades of long ago.

Are waited clear and strong,
It's 0, to capture and to hold
This wandering waif of song!
