BONDS WAIT ON
BONUS ACTION
Traders Expect Heaviness
Until Large Flotation Is
Definitely Settled.

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.-Cntil def
mite action is taken by Congress
with respect to a bonus for former
service men and the government
makes 1t known once fo> all
whether their plan will involve
fotation of a large loan, doubtless

bond market. Flotation recently of
stable private loans in themselves
have checked perceptibly the for
ward movement of gilt-edged is
ues. Few bond prophets doubt that
announcement now of another
large government loan for bonus
purposes would depress prices to
much greater extent. at least for
a time, since it would throw a
greater supply of giIt-edced offer
ings on thu market and would
raise the tax burdens.

A BETTER FEELING
PERVADES COTTON;
WHEAT IS EASIER
General Liquidation and
Southern Selling
Subsidies.

NEW YORK, Jan. a1.-There was
a slightly better feeling in the cot.
ton markets today at Liverpool, as
well as New Orleans and here. This
was due mainly to a subsidence Of
the recent heavy pressure OF gen.
eral liquidation and Southern SELL
ing. This encouraged somewhat
better buying support from some
OF the local trade interests in this
market today and at the same time
Influenced considerable further
proht-taking by recent shorts. The
net result OF these DEVELOPMENTS
was a maximum rally in prices by
2:l5 o'clock in the general contract
list here ranging between IS and
80 points from yesterdays closing,
Liverpool houses were large SELL
ers here after the opening advance
and SO was New Orleans and a num-
ber of Wall Street houses. This
pressure caused the set back after
the higher opening, but the selling
pressure ended before the end of
the frst hour. and then the market
slowly rallied to the extent as
stated above. The New Orleans
market fiuctuated entirely in SYM
pathy with this market Southern
spot MARKETS were steaGier and
mostly unchanged to 10 and 30
points higher during the afternoon
in following the moderate rally in
futures here. Beyond these state
ments the general, cotton situation
and outlook showed little change
on the days developments. There
Is no assurance as yet the lowest
prices have been seen from the pre-
vailing general conditions. The
days export clearanees posted up
to O'Clock were about $4,000 bales,
mostly from Galveston. and chiefly
to Great Britain.

CITY'S JUNIORS TO
CONTEST IN FIELD
EVENTS ON FOURTH

All the playground children will
take part in the Fourth Of July eel
ebration TO be held at Glen Miller
park. The children will meet at
their Fairgrounds at 1890 on the
Fourth and from there Will go to
the park.
The field meet, which will be
one of the main features of the
day for the children, is expected to
be quite an affair. The meet is
open to children of all ages and rib
bons will be awarded as prizes.
The events of the meet are as fol-
lows: Dashes, three-legged races,
shoe race, egg race, catching the
creased pig, and climbing the
CREASED pole. The boy who catches
the pig will get to keep him and
probably the next day will be en-
joying roast pig dinner. Whose
ever climbs the creased pole is adj
vised to wear old clothes or even
his mother will not be able to rec
ogniZe him when he gets through.
Probably the principle aim of
those attempting to climb the pole
will be to rescue nice, new one
dollar bill, which will be pinned to
the top.
Children are urged by Mr. P. H.
Slocum, head of the Community
Service Bureau 10 bring their faith
ers and mothers along with them
and eat their suppers in the Glen.
There will be band concerts during
the supper hour.

Three Juniors Write
Of Trip to Shades

We lift Richmond at midnight
Saturday night Rode all night,
just making few stops. We ate
breakfast at daylight and arrived
at the Park at o'clock. We
thought we would take walk
around to see what was there,
There were lots of cottages to
rent out for summer. They were
nice. We walked down long path
winding around and down In the
bottom there were three large
springs. They were called Spring
of Health" Spring of Beauty"
Spring of Youth" All along this
path were pretty ferns and moss,
This was all down in ravine. The
most wonderful sight one ever saw
of nature 1t was all rocks and
sand stone on both sides just like
it had been caved out. We went
on down the path next we passed
what was called the Bridal Falls.
They were very pretty On down
was a mamoth big rock which was
called the Devils Fire Pot" You
could climb up ladder into it, We
took what was called the "Buz-
yards trail" that led us around the
river and around a small mountain
seeing some of the prettiest sights
any one ever saw. We crossed an
old wooden bridge. Down under it
was what was called the Devils
Punch Bowl" a solid mass of rock
with a fountain in it. The reason
this is such pretty place is be-
cause it. was natures own way OF
fixing it. One could spend two
days and then wouldn't see all the
pretty places. This was also the
home of the Indians centuries ago,

PENNS'Y PUPPY
VISITS PLAYGROUND

Many cute little puppy dogs are
to be seen around in many homes
these days. The following story
of how little puppy visited play
ground in Butler Pennsylvania on
the day IL opened for summer ac-
tivities was told in the Christian
Science Monitor:
An Airdale puppy, accompanied
by its young master, formally open
ed new playground here recently,
setting the pace of the youngsters
who turned out to Initiate" the APP
paratus.
The boys started a "follow-the-
leader" game, and it didn't take the
puppy long to get into the lead. 1t
Waded through a pool of water, dug
holes in the sand pits, rode the
swings and climbed the 12-foot lad
der
The puppy then took look at
the slides, but was a bit skeptical.
Finally it tried one and found it to
its liking. Then for about an hour,
led by the little dog, the youngsters
enjoyed the slides.
The new playground was one of
a series of four opened in Butler
this summer.

The "Real Uncle Sam
BY Felix J. Koch

Every once in so often, particu
larly when we wish to avoid re-
peating so long and high-sounding
a title as THE Government of tho
United States of America" even
the best of US will speak of this
self-same Government as uncle
Sam"
Cartoonists and others have for
years employed the traditional
picture of Uncle Samuel, attired
in tricolor, to the same end.
Naturally, the custom must have
had a start some time; there must
have been some reason for Uncle
Samuel"
One who really claims to know
tells of this origin of the very
ubiquitous nickname as follows;
During the great Revolutionary
War, man named Samuel Wilson
was a beefinspector at Troy, N. Y.
Wilson was very popular with his
men, who. liking him, adopted a
very popular fashion among EN-
ployees at the time, of speaking of
him, among themselves, as uncle
SAM
After Wilson's inspection OF the
beef, he shipped it to contractor
named Ebert Anderson, who took
charge of it on behalf of the United
States.
CAS- result, the packages of beef,
were for Ebert Anderson and Un-
Gle Sam. The joke was spread, at
Wilson's expense; spread farther
still, until it became the fad to re-
fer to all packages marked u. s.
to the Government-as
Uncle m's"-and thence our
own Uncle Sam as personifying
the Government itself
