Fairy Tale
MOTHER HAReoR SEAL
~MARY GRAHAM BONNET

MOTHER HARsoR SEAL.
my little Harbor Seal baby" said
Mother Harbor Seal to her small son
whose name was Harry Harbor Seal,
II love you 80 much.
III anything happened to you I do
not believe I could stand it. 1t was
such JOY when I saw you this spring
and I will watch out for you and
guard you, never fear.
Il will love you and show you what
are the ways Of the Harbor Seal fam
lily. For when you belong to q fam
lily you should follow their ways. Not
every Harbor Seal must be alike any
more than every boy is alike or ev-
cry girl is alike.
But you must learn the family
ways. Now for instance, boys and
girls are all alike In that they go to
schools, eat meals, and play games.
$50 are there certain things for the
Harbor Seals to learn.
s...s7 You belong to one Of the smallest
kinds OF seals. And now I will tell
you some Of the family history and
what is expected Of you to do.
"Travel along the coast lines, and
enjoy harbors' as your name almost
tells you to do.
1T Is true your name doesn't say,
Enjoy Harbors, young Seals
But because you are called the
Harbor Seals means that you like
harbors.
"Harbors are the best kinds Of
homes, though rivers will sometimes
do.
always swim with beauty and
grace and be gentle and kind and
friendly unless people hunt you. Then
be on the lookout!
"Your family has always been ia
nous for its intelligence. The Har-
Dor Seals haven't had to go to school.
They have been intelligent quite nat
urally.
II haven't doubt but what many
boys and girls would like to be the
same way and would like to be 80 in
telligent that they didn't have to go
to school.
"Still, Harbor Seals have had les
sons. Many a time, keepers or mas
tiers have taught tricks to the Harbor
Seals.
"They say that we learn very quick

Stocks Again
Rise Slightly
I'm Dull Mart
Rails Firm as Independent
Oil Shares Lead Upward
Movement; Wheat and
Cotton Higher at Close

With the speculative community ap-
parently even more satisfied that, the
railroad situation would be untangled
| in manner not unfavorable to stock
holders, the stock market, freed from
the restraints caused by the railroad
crisis, yesterday continued the up
ward movement which started Tues
day. Trading was light and originated
largely among professional spectators.
The railroad shares, which were
again distinctly firm, went further in
the process of wiping out the losses in
Cured last week before the strike
order was made public, while specu-
iators in advance sensed trouble.
Leadership, however, was seized by the
shares of domestic oil concerns. espe-
cially Pacific Oil, which for weeks have
been rising at the marketplace, while
the quotations of crude oil have been
ascending. The speculation for fur
ther increase in the quotation of oil
shares is based on the assumption
that the decentralization in the industry
is over. Obviously, the upset equilb-
rum between supply and demand ear
lier In the year was temporary re-
flection of upset business conditions
rather than a symptom of a oerma-
nently unhealthy condition of the oil
trade. During the earlier critical
period the reaction in oil shares of
solid companies clearly went too far
An attempt on the part of traders to
stop the upturn yesterday by selling
Mexican Petroleum was fruitless.
The chief exception to the general
market trend was again the steel group,
which was heavy yesterday because
what spectators suspected in the pre-
vious day was verified by the event.
Republic Steel and Iron earnings for the
third quarter, which were to a large
extent only of historical interest, since
lately the curve has started moderately
upward, were the most unsatisfactory
thus far during this year of extreme
depression in the steel industry. The
United States Steel Corporation and
Midvale will make public their quar-
terly statements next week
In sympathy with another marked
rise in the dollar value of the pound
sterling, European exchanges were
firmer yesterday. Cotton quotations
closed slightly higher and, after ex-
treme fluctuations, wheat prices at the
final sales were moderately above those
Of the previous day.

Haskell & Barker

Buying of Haskell G. Barker shares
continued on an active scale Yesterday
and before the close the stock had
added 31a point gain to Thursdays
advance of 314 points. There was
talk in the Street pool operations were
being conducted by an operator who
was once prominent in Stutz Motors,
but dispatches from Chicago quoted
President Garry as saving that the
strength in the stock was probably due
to an Improvement in the entire bust
ness, situation. The company has no
no par value out of total issue of
250,000 shares. While Mr. Carry's ex-
planation seemed the more logical one,
there was also rumor that another
prominent equipment company had
been a buyer OF the stock during the
past few weeks.

Pacific Oil at New High

The lease with which Pacific Oil
established new high record price
yesterday indicated that the floating
supply of the stock has been substan-
TALLY reduced. 1t has been reported
from time to time that the Standard Oil
Company of California holds a sub
stantial block of the stock, and it was
said yesterday that the shares acquired
at lower prices are still in the COM
pany's strong box. 1t is understood
that the California member of the
Standard Oil group acquired its inter
est in Pacific Oil through exercising it's
Southern Pacific rights. In one quar-
ter the Standard Oil holdings of Pa
cifc Oil were estimated as high as
100000 shares out of the 3,500,00
shares outstanding. The high price
established for Pacific Oil yesterday
was 42ss, which was made on the last
sale.

Renuhlic Iron e. Steel


Publication of the report of the Re-
public Iron & Steel report for the
September quarter, showing n deficit of
Sf.398,410 after charges and taxes, was
followed yesterday by greater weak
ness in the preferred than in the COM
mon. The former sold down to 75N. a
new low for the year, but rallied to
76 1a at the close lor a fractional net
loss. The common, on the other hand,
after declining to 44a4, rallied to 46as
a net advance of y. The Street keeps
hearing reports Of an independent

was revived yesterday. although Of

present time.

S. s. Kresse Company

The S. S. Kresge Company is attach
tax changes because of the expected
benefits to accrue to it. If the tax
is changed to 15 per cent on net profits,
which is the rate proposed in the new
bill now before Congress, it is esti-
mated that earnings available for divi-
dends on the present common stock
in 1922 will be equivalent to over s42
share. For example. in 1918. when
profits available for the common were
s2,Sl0,999, taxes amounted TO 81 $50, ,0G0,
whereas on estimated earnings for
next year OF s5,0o0,000 taxes are fore
cast at 900.

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Another advance in sterling which
carried rates on London to within less
than cents of the years high level

days foreign exchange trading here.
Cable rates on London closed at
S395%, an advance of 2% cents, new
high for the movement. Continental
exchange was higher, as a rule. in
sympathy with the upturn in sterling
except for Swiss francs, which again
were heavy. Canadian exchange also
improved.

Corn Products

Corn Products was another issue that
made new high for the year yester-
day, at S0A. The advance in this stock
within recent days is said to be based
on the expectation of favorable
earnings report for the September
quarter. The report is expected to
show that the three months ended Sep
tember 80 were better from an earn
ings standpoint than the two preced-
ing quarters. Net profits in the first
three months of the year totaled ST.
282,331, equal to s1.7O a share on the
$40, ,784,000 common stock, after all
prior charges. The June surplus was
equivalent to $1.e8 share on the
junior issue.

Harding Visits Street

W. P. G. Harding, governor of the
Federal Reserve Board, dropped into
Wall Street yesterday unannounced
He called at the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York, went to the Morgan
Offices and had a chat With Dwight w.
Morrow, and the Street became curious
about the purpose of his visit. Visions
of important developments in the
credit situation appeared to the stock
market following when the tickers
printed the news of the governors 8
visit. His real purpose of coming to
New York, it developed later, was not
on business, but to take a look at a
new grandson, F. H. Prince Sd, at the
Plaza Hotel, born to Governor Har-
ding's daughter. While at the Reserve
Bank the governor took the time to
discuss the credit situation, which he
reported to be steadily improving. In
cidentally, he expressed the opinion to
the newspaper men that business has
turned the corner but he held that the
present railroad labor muddle would
tend to hold the revival in check.

w. G.. HARDING SAYS
THIS in 1921

Following is the portion of President Hardings in
augural address, at Washington D. c., March d, 1921.
dent Harding takes the ground that Mr.
IoWnley took four years ago:
If war is again forced upon us.
L earnestly hope way may be found which
will unity our individual and collective
strength and consecrate all America, materi-
ally and spiritually, body and SOUL to ma
tlOnal defense. | can vision the ideal republic
where every man and woman is called under
the flag for assignment to duty, for whatever
service, military or civic, the individual is best
lifted; where we may call to universal service
every plant, agency or facility, all in the SUBJ
lime sacrifice for country, and not one penny
OF war profit shall inure to the benefit of pri-
vate Individual, corporation or combination,
but all above the normal shall flow into the
defense chest of the nation. There is some-
thing inherently wrong, something out of ac-
cord with the ideals of representative democ-
racy when one portion of our citizenship turns
its activity to private gain amid defensive
war, while another is fighting, sacrificing or
dying for national preservation.
Out of such universal service will COME
new unity of spirit and purpose "a new conf
dence and conservation, which would make our
defense impregnable, our triumph assured
Then we should have little or no disorganiza-
ton of our economic, industrial and CONNER
cial systems at home, no staggering war
debts, no swollen fortunes to fout the sacri-
fees of our soldiers u
