Halloween Fun for the Conva-
lescent Invalid,

Anybody who has ever been sick in
bed knows that the hardest time TO bear
ones illness is on holiday--when All
the rest of the world is at play. This
Halloween there are scores Of conVales-
cent invalids who are not able to accept
invitations TO parties or to ENJOY the
company of persons outside theif own
family, yet who would appreciate nav
ing their sickroom take on a Hal
loweeny" appearance and would de-
rive much pleasure in celebrating the
occasion with some such simple game
as that given below. which would not
overtax their strength.
The decorations might be hung
around the room when the invalid is
taking daytime nap. or the in
valid's eyes might be bound with a
silk handkerchief while the mysteri-
Gus work of decorating is going on. A
few bright pumpkin faces (such as
can be bought at any stationer's S
store) could be pinned to the window
curtains. The lighting, shades or
orange and black. so that when the
lights were on the room would be
colored Weirdly. Crepe paper stream
ers might be festooned here and there,
and a real pumpkin, followed out,
could stand on table or bureau as a
Jack O. Lantern. If some outside
friend of the invalid were to make
this Jack o. Lantern, the invalid's en-
joyment of it would be doubly keen.
for when we are i'll we are always
pleased to know that our friends
think of US.
When the invalid awakes. or when
the bandage is removed from his or
her eyes and the decorations have
been enjoyed. the following game
might be started:

A woman wrote to me recently and
asked me whether 1t was necessary 20
learn the calorie theory in order to re-

sirabe. If you understand exactly the
sort Of foods you may eat and the
quantities. you cannot go wrong.
Another excellent reason Is that If you
understand this calorie system you vii!

more pounds instead of fewer. This

Chatterer had stolen lot of little,

The directors OF the Midvale Steel and
Ordnance Company passed yesterday the
quarterly dividend of 90 cents n share
on Its capital stock. In announcing that
decision the company issued the follow
Ing statement:
Our operations for the first two
months OF 1921 show a loss March ac-
count Will not be finally audited bfore
April 10, but we have no reason to be-
lieve that the month will show any i'm
provemcnt over January and February.
The results for tho quarter will be pub
lished after the regular meeting of d.
rectors May A.
I'm view or tho above conditions and
the uncertainty as to the future the d.
rectors decided that the interest or tho
company would be best served by omit
ting payment OF any dividends"
Frank A. Varderlip rendered his res
ignatlon as a director of the company
and John ID. Ryan, president of the Ana
conda Copper Mining Company was
elected to succeed him. Mr.. Wander
lips resignation attracted more than
usual attention because OF the fact that
he was one Of the original directors of
the company and was active in It's af-
fairs when it was formed.

Tho short Interest.

Ono mans guess about tho size Of the
short interest is generally as good as
another's. Trying to figure II by the
borrowed stock, outside Of showing tho
situation in a general way, is not pro-
ductive of much information-nor do hap
penings In the loan crowd give much
more than an inlxling Of what is going
on. Probably the best information Is to
be found in the wire houses. which. un-
der ordinary circumstances. fnd 1t good
business to loan stocks when the short
interest is large and eager to borrow
stocks. The head of big wire house
declared yesterday that In the history
of that hrm-covering more than twenty
years-it had never borrowed SO little
money or loaned SO many stocks as 1t
had recently. The head of another house
OF equal Importance said that his firm
was loaning daily 100000 to 10000
shares of stock--an extraordinarily large
figure. running two to three times above
normal.

Lowest Renewal In IS Months.

For the first time since October "a,
1918. call money In the New York Stock
Exchange renewed yesterday for as
low as 51s per cent and subsequently
declined to s per cent. Over the counter
rates were AZ per cent pretty much
all day, and as large sum went un-
loaned last night as 1t did on the night
before. Time money also was shaded
to about 6A per cent The numerous
channels for investment Of idle money
attract call funds when the rate gets
below per cent. and there Is some
question as to just how long the free
money conditions of the first part OF
this week will continue. There Is also
under scrutiny the possibility that other
reserve banks will start borrowing from
the local reserve bank.

dividend on its common stock. 1t is
