SENTIMENT IN WALL
 STREET EV|NCED 4 DECIDED REVERSAL
Dealings Were Light Through out Session, But of a Fairly Varied Character, Rails, : and Equipments Feature

New York, April 1S-Sentiment in Wall street today evinced a decided reversal from the moderate optimism which marked Hast weeks later dealings. This change was reflected in stock market prices. where gross reactions of to 3 points established several new low rec ords for the year.
 On the surface there were no unto ward developments over the Sunday re- cess. Cables dealing with the British la bor situation were encouraging and the domestic bank position continued to strengthen at federal reserve centers.
 In we'll informed banking circles it was intimated sthat the plans of the admin istration at Washington to devise meas ures for relieving the railroads and in- dustrial interests from further economic disturbance were making steady pro- gress.
 Western transportation terminals re- ported further elimination of tonnage. Although movements of wheat and other foodstuffs from farms and elevators were large, they were offset by smaller shipments of cotton, coal and lumber.
 Dealings were light throughout the session but of fairly varied character Rails, steels and equipments more or less as named, featured the backward issues with a sprinkling of leather, to- bacco and food specialties.
 Oils stood out for their relative stead mess, especially the low grade stocks, the demand in that quarter effecting numerous rallies of to 2 points else where before the close, net losses being largely nominal. C
 In the open market call money was obtainable at 6 per cent, but on the ex- change the rate held at ' per cent. Time funds also were firm, though in freer supply. Exchange on London was bare ly steady, but remttances to continental points, especially Italy, strengthened.
 Local traction and high grade railway bonds, notably Pennsylvania 41As and 5s were heavy Liberty issues also easing, but some international, including Do- n.inion of Canada 1913 and Mexicans were firm. Total sales, par value, were 60 276 0n0

THE FEAST
OF LIGHTS
~HE lights on the tree are said to

~ HE lights on the tree are said to
VI be Of Jewish origin. In the
month of Klslev, of the Jewish
year, corresponding nearly to our De-
cember, and the twenty-ffth day, Jews
celebrated the feast of dedication or
their temple. 1t had been dedicated on
that day by Antiochus. 1t was dedicated
by Judas Maccabeus, and, according to
Jewish legend, sufficient oil was found
In the temple to last for the seven
branched candlestick for eight days,
and 1t would have taken eight days to
prepare new oil. Accordingly the Jews
were won't on the twenty-ffth day OF
Kislev In every house to light a can
die, on the next day two, and on the
the eighth and last day Of the feast,
eight candles twinkled In every house.
1t Is not very easy to fix the ex'
act date of the Nativity, but 1t fell
most probably on the last day OF kis-
lev when every Jewish house In Beth
lehem and Jerusalem was twinkling
with lights. 1t is worthy of note that
the German name for Christmas Is
Welhnacht 1.-THE night of dedication),
as though 1t were associated with this
feast. The Greeks also call Christ
mas the feast of lights, the name
given to the dedication festival, Chan
ukah, by the Jews.

WHY THE CHRISTMAS KISSES7
Oscillation, Allowed by Custom, Cello
brates One OF Most Charming
Events In Tradition.

eNNf HY should men kiss girls who
VLXH stand under mistletoe?
Because they like 1t and be-
cause custom allows 1t. Every kiss
under the mistletoe, however, is kiss
which celebrates one Of the most
charming events in Christmas tradi-
ton.
The romance goes back to the days
Of The gods of Scandinavia, when Bal
dur the Beautiful was shot by Locke,
the Spirit Of Evil, with an arrow Of
mistletoe. But his mother, Venus Of
the North, restored him to life by sa-
luting with kisses all who passed be-
meath branch held aloft in her hand.
Thus ii became an emblem Of love
and happy celebration. Ancient races
held the plant in great yeneration, par
ticularly the Druids, who went in pro-
cession into the forests to collect it.
After New Years dsy It was dis
tributed among the people as sacred
and holy plant, II any part of the
mlstetoe touched the ground 1t was
regarded as an omen OF impending
evil.
