In closing. I will give two quota
tons which sum up Arnold Benefits
characteristics as man and as a
writer. One says, "The essential
character of the man is one of quite
exceptional kindness and generosity
His attitude to art is one of sincere
devotion. He is even an artist in his
attitude toward life. He is the most
open minded man have ever met and
the most modest. He is one of the
few men who enjoys his own personal
ity. It amuses him intensely, reals
tically. He is not cynlc, not an
ironist; he is realist"
Another says, ut is Benefits Pc
culiar talent that he can insist on
the overwhelming predominance OF
the common place and that he can de-
pict the common place till the tedium
of it saturates the very soul of the
reader, and yet he can all of the time,
keep the star of beauty faithfully be-
fore the gaze. It is as if he compelled
US to travel the weary miles of an old
, mine, and kept for our hope only the
one guarded flame at the shaft"

In the life of an auto, just as in
human life there is the pace that kills.
The motor or component parts of an
automobile should not more be abused
than an animal should. Societies for
the prevention of cruelty to motor carg
are impracticable, but each auto driver
can be a sort of a silent partner in ?
broad national movement to take care
of his auto.
Just across the street from where
live this winter was a man. who had
pretty much of the worlds good l
thought. He had a cute simplicity
bungalow, a wife, a kiddie and one of
the low priced light four touring cars.
He has had this car for four months
and it looks as good today rs when
first l saw it. He takes pride in his
possessions. He does not drive with
the pace that kills: that Unsuitable d.
sire to take every hill on high. to pass
every car in front, TO slam on the
breaks, to cut the corners fast and
short, to overload his car beyond ca
pacity. He watches his oil. his gas, his
lubricants, the air in his tires and fol-
lows more the pace that pleases than
the pace that kills.
Every sunday he SPENDS the entire
morning going over his car, washing it,
greasing it and giving the whole auto
mobile the inspectIve uncover. He
was so persistent in his care of the lit
tie car that it was almost amusing. But
1t was commendable. II more car own
ers would pamper rather than punish
heir cars, how much more enjoyment
they would have than at present and
how better able would their machine
be able to meet the emergencies when
they did arise.
There is the extremist who starts
fixing things that do not need fixing
or which can be better fixed by an ex-
pert. 1t is just the little attentions
that count. In that respect autos are
like girls; the more attention YOU give
them the better they will treat you.

NEW YORK. April 12.-The stock
market was again beset by conflicting
influences today, many of the usual
leaders in the industrial division re-
acting / to 4 points. while other shares
of less prominence were distinctly
strong.
Rumors dealing with the financial
needs and dividend prospects of the So
called Independent steels caused in
cessant offerings Of that group, Repub-

Bethlehem proving especially vulnar-
able to bear drives. On the cOnstruc-

by oils, motors, cOppers, tobaccOs and
utilities, chief among the latter being
Western Union, Consolidated Gas and
Peoples Gas, but rails remained dull
at nominal changes.
Prices attained highest levels of the
session prior to publication of Presi-
dent Harding's address to congress.
AS extracts of the message appeared
on the news ticket, shorts began TO
put out new lines, effacing most gains
of the noon hour. Shortly before the
close, hOwe1 err announcement Of the
postponement of the strike of the
