OPTIMISM rs CHASTENED

Special Gable to THE New York HERALD.
Copyright, 1921. by THE New YoRK HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
London, Dec. iS.
The spirit of Christmas has settled on
business has taperad off considerably
since last Monday. when over 5000 sales
were recorded. the tone remains very
cheerful. Nearly Eli, 500 900 in new capi-
tai was successfully placed during thu
last week. Consols jumped to over So
the highest for long while. The war
loan finished at 91A, ana an all around
rise in recent colonial scrip was a con-
spicuous feature despite the advent of
9th ar large issues.
The CHEEKY tone that is prevalent Is
due to political influences, but the op-
timism is slightly chastened by other
considerations
The postponed reduction of the official
New York rediscount rate has checked
the hopes of those who were counting
on the early establishment of cheaper
money rates here. and the upward rush
in the American price of the pound
sterling was stayed when apparently in
spired hints issued broadcast on this
side about an economic conference in
Washington were received coldly in
America.
Indications of q trade revival still are
hard to find, and all that can be said
is that political and financial arrange
ments now tend to assist it.
Regarding Russo-Asiatics, which had
special demand at the end of the
week, notices were posted in Capel
Court Friday stating that Hugo SHINES
intends again to visit London on privats
business, and that he is now in the
possession of the necessary capital ia
negotiate with the Russo-Asiatic Cor
poration for the purpose of exploiting
Russia by an Anglo-German consor-
tium.

Practically every town in this
territory is going to have a
splendid ball team, this summer,
and it is up to the people of
Okolona as to whether or not
OkoIona has a team. To run a
ball club successfully takes
money and Okolona will have to
raise some money. Tupelo,
Amory,, West Point, Pontotoc
are all practicing, and Okoiona
must get busy at once. Not to
have a team this season will be
a backward step for Okoiona, as
we have always had the best
in this section. A petetion is
being circulated among the citi-
zens of our city, and it is up to
you to get your name down for
some amount. Unless everyone
in Okolona, interested in base
ball, contributes it will be i'm
possible to have a winning club.
