LONDON STOCK MARKET
OIL Shares Strong Feature-EssIer
Tendency In Home Rails

London, Sept. "A more confident
feeling prevailed on the stock exchange
today with the oil shares the strong
feature as result of active profess
sional operations. Shell Transport and
Trading was quoted at 8 and Mexican
Eagle at 3 1-16. Gilt edged securities
were irregular, but there was more
cheerful feeling because of the monetary
ease.
An easier tendency was shown in
home rails, which we're neglected. Dol
lar descriptions continued dull. A re-
vival Of dividend hopes caused buoyancy
in Argentine rails. French loans were
firmer on buying by Paris, while kafiirs
lacked steadiness and we're leaderness.
Although the market for the rubbers
was dull, the undertone continued
steady. Other industrials were slightly
firmer with more active trading Hud-
sons Bay was quoted at 9.

col. BOB DAVIS, RETIREMENT


With this issue of the Gainesville
Sun, retire, at least for the present,
from the field of journalism. I was
approaching my SEVENTEEN year, when
/ wrote my first editorial in this pa
per or, in any paper. Since that time
have learned to love journalism and
deeply regret not having made it my
LIES work. In retiring Il wish to
thank Mr.. w. NJ. Pepper, the owner
and publisher of the Sun for his many
acts of kindness to me. / wish to
thank the press of Florida for the for
bearance it has shown me- / trust to
be able to deserve to the end the
brotherly expressions editors have
used about me. wish to travel the
few more miles my feet have to tread.
in the spirit pictured by the Tampa
Tribune, when, speaking of my birth-
day:
When man reaches that age
says the Tribune "he has reached such
an height on the side of Mount Nebo
that the promised land' is growing
clearer and more effulgent with every
step. Men who have reached this age
are no longer atheists, or free think
ers;" they see God in every thing;
"the heavens declare His handiwork."
while in every moving creature they
see His sustaining hand, and flower.
and tree, and running water, the
Great Invisible proclaim"
Happy indeed is the man who wheR
he reaches that age can say with the
veteran editor of the Gainesville Sun:
Every springing leaf, every opening
wild flower in the forest, and every
shimmering wavelet whispers to us
of the goodness and the mercy OF the
Great Jehovah"

The Pneumonia month

March is a typical pneumonia
month and usually gives high rate
of mortality for the disease After a
long and hard winter. the system loses
much of its resistance and people
grow careless. When every cold, no

and intelligent attention, there is
much less danger of pneumonia It
should be borne in mind that pneu-
monia is a germ disease and breeds

Remedy is an expectorant and cleans

MARION CAN LEVY FOR BONDS

Tallahassee. March 24.-The SUI.
preme court yesterday reversed a de-
cree OF the circuit court of Marion
county enjoining county officials from
levying and collecting special tax
to provide interest and a sinking fund
on road bond issue of $560,000 au-
thorized at an election held last April
The injunction was obtained by GER
tain tax payers of Marion county. The
bonds have not been issued and the
lower court based its decision upon
this feature, declaring that under the
law bonds must be issued before a
tax levy can be lawfully made.

where the Germans are rapidly re- gaining their pre-war prestige know of one American concern which last year shipped 35.00O tons of goods to South American countries but in the next 12 months will send less than 12,- 900 tons. The Germans have sold the other 230O0 tons.
 The trade problem is now and all ways will be simply a question of where to buy cheaply. as long as the quality is approximately the same, and in the matter of quality the German manufacturers have received few com plaints."
 Some German capitalists believe it will be 10 to Is years before Germany again can wield anything like her old time power in world commerc but the more optimistic are figuring on a shorter period.

 A scouting pigeon saw the chickens from afar and after wigwagging home to his family proceeded to fall off the water wagon.
 An erstwhile modest and retiring spinster-hen insulted the family cat and pursued him until Tom took refuge in a tree and refused to come down for hours.
