STUDIES In
NATURAL HISTORY
BY JAMES HENRY RICE, Jr.
THE GRAY FOX.


Class-Mammalia; Order, Carnivo-
ra; sub-ordcr, Fissipcdia; Genus,
Urocyon: Family Urocyonidac Species
Cinercoargentcus.
Therefore, the Gray Fox belongs to
the suck giving (nammalian) class of
flesh eating (carnivorous) ofder and
of the split-tocd CF'issipcd) sub-order
of the dog tailed CUrocyon) genus of
the ashy- silver species.
He is closer akin to the South Amer
lean foxes than to those Of Europe, as
would naturally he expected. He is
also smaller-much smaller, likewise
smaller than the Red Fox.
The range Of the Gray Fox is from
New York and New Jersey, south to
Georgia, west to the Mississippi and
up the valley Of that river to Tcnnes-
see, his place being taken in Florida
and in the west by closly related var
ieties.
Comparison of Gray and Red.
In comparing the two varieties, gray
and red, DR.. EllZey claims greater
fecundity of the Red Fox. He says he
has never seen a Gray fox with more
than five young, often with only four;
while he has never found a Red fox
with less than five and he has Jseen
nine cubs.
The young of the Gray fox resemble
young puppies; but the young of the
Rcd fox look like foxes from then
birth.
The vixen of the Gray fox uses hol-
low trees, logs and stump to whelp in,
whereas the Rcd fox invariably digs an
earth den.

The LESSON FOR SUNDAY
Paul Conducts Missionary Campaign
In ICORium and LyStrd.
PEOPLE WANTED TO WORSHIP HIM

His Old Enemies The Jews Of AntIoch
Are Still on His Trail-They Bring
Their Thugs and Stone Him and

(By the Tcachcr).
My Friends:
In this lesson for the coming sun
day we continue our study of the iirSt
missionary journey of Paul and
narnabas. Having stirred up the AMI
mostly and bitter hatred Of the jewish
unbclicvcrs while they were teaching
i'm Antioch where hundreds of converts
were brought to the Christian banner
thc apOStlCs went TO PiSidia and from
there To Iconium and TO Lystra, where
they remained until Paul was stoned
and he and Barnabas were driven out
ncrhaps by the same Jews of Antioch
who were determined to follow them
until they were either killed or i'm
prisoned.
This first missionary journey oc-
cur.rcd about A. u. As. IcOnium was
the capital Of Lycaonia, Il province OF
Asia Minor, about 80 miles from Anti
och. Iystra and Dcrbc were also
cities of that province, the former
about eighteen miles from Iconium and
the latter 81 miles from Lystra and the
general direction of these places from
Antioch was southeast.
The Scripture Lesson.
But before we proceed any further
with the discussion of this lesson FOR
the coming Sunday let us read the ac-
count as found in Acts 14:S-2O:
3 And there sat Il certain man at
I.ystra, impotent in his feet, being

wise determined by the international
market, since American goods pro-
duced at costs above those prevailing
in other countries cannot be sold
abroad.
Large classes Of labor have taken
their losses by severe wage cuts.
Among those which have accepted
them have been many skilled crafts
which have seen that in the long run
wages on the new basis will have a
purchasing power equivalent to that
when wages were higher.
Certain classes of labor contrast I'M
favorably, however, with labor as a
whole. The time is not far distant
when not only that uncertain group
known as the general public" but
those sections of it consisting of other
classes Of workers and farmers will
have come to realization that labor
pays its own wages, which are ulti-
mately measured, not in money. but in
goods. The money wage only meas.
ures the estimated worth to other con-
sumers of the goods produced by the
wage Garner. When any class of labor
attempts to force its wages out of line
with other wages and the price level,
that group endeavors primarily to take
advantage not Of capital but of the
other workers, who, in last analysis,
musa suffer as others gain.
If special labor groups refuse to ac-
cept reductions in keeping with the
general trend of both wages and
prices the farmers, the makers of
shoes and garments and all those
classes which suppl ythe necessaries
of life to these men for time at least
must give up in the form of unduly
high prices disproportionate share
of the food or other goods which they
produce in return for transportation,
coal and other goods.

use for the foundations Of five-story

granite sources is the foundation ex-
cavation Of the new comparatively
built Hotel Commonwealth at Fifty
sixth street and Broadway, where 200
tons of stone are now being removed

going to be such big hotel that it has
to have deep foundation and more

erses five miles of Brooklyn before it

MONEY AND MARKETS,

Gains thus far made in industrial
activity are real, and there is steady
progress toward better business. With
the exception of cotton, the crops are
reasonably good, and their movement
Is being reflected in an improved
banking position as farmers obliga-
tions are liquidated. Cotton mills, the
VOL manufacture, and the boot and
shoe industry are all holding their
improvement of recent months. AL
though the steel industry is operating
at about one-third of capacity, produc-
ton of both pig iron and steel made
fair gains in August Orders are small
but they have come from widely d.
versified sources, both geographically
and as to consuming industries. Many
other industries report slight better
ment, and building activity is being
remarkably we'll maintained through
out the country.
There is no justification for any
worldwide rise in prices at this time.
Producers of raw materials from the
farmer to the metal mine operator
have taken their losses. Those classes
of labor which have accepted wage re-
auctions in keeping with the changed
economic situation have likewise taken
their losses while other large classes
of labor have don so Indirectly as a
result Of unemployment. The conclu-
sion is clear. Retail prices cannot 20
up without promptly curtailing buiy-
ing They must be reduced until they
are in line with raw materials.
Because of uncertainty as to what
the consumer can and will buy, retail
ers generally are ordering with great
caution, while many wholesalers in
turn are refraining from placing ad-
vance orders. The adoption, at any
stage from manufacturer to consumer,
of policy directed toward generally
higher prices to the consumer will not
only curtail buying, but will result in
slowing down the gratifying progress
already made. Domestic conditions do |
not entirely govern. There are inter- |
national conditions to be recksned |
with The only farsighted policy is
the expansion of sales on a narrow |
margin Of profit
Periods of genuine, as contrasted |
with artificial prosperity, are never
characterized by rapidly rising prices.
Approximate price sterilization is
their Prerequisite. This follows in
eyitably from the fact that the first
principle Of sound business of any
sort is operation on the basis of non
speculative profits The country Is
yet struggling to recover from the i'll
effects Of excessive speculation
The United States sells more raw
in the international market
THAN any other single country.
Hence. the purchasing power of a
large part of the American consuming
public is directly determined by prices
Of raw materials in that market. In
so far as the purchasing power of
American labor depends on the export
