SEEN ON THE SIDE
BY HENRY EDWARD WARMER
The Wnndcrcr.

My mind Is aware OF the things to be done.
The unfinished Jobs so untimeiy begun,
The warps In the plans that have all gone
agile,
And 1t cautions. and makes solemn warnings
for me;
But how. tell me. Brother, can one do u thing
When his heart Is dead set the glorics
OF Spring?
one plans but the plans disappear in wish
For fish and for fishing, for fishing and fish!
My mind :. . that Monitor! tells me
I'll fail
In business. see sad finish in Jail.
Or fall tar behind the procession. and
Straight down to the domnition bowwows
III go!
My conscience keeps yelling. but 1 so my
Delaying and stalling from days end to play.
And i can't seem to think of confoundcd
thing.
But God and the open, and Youth and tho
Spring!
My desk is piled high with the work should
do.
a terrible mess for chap to go through
Whose soul tugs and pulls at the leash. and
who
Less tied to the job than immersed In his
dreams.
But let it keep piling! :. the world goes
ahead
And things will keep going long after I'm
dead!
a Wanderer And the drip OF my pen
Will sing of the Spring till I'm hshlng again!

ner practically during the entire ses-
sion. There were periods of firmness,
especially after the posting Of the
weekly statistics, but they did not
last. During a good part of the day
the triple holiday which follows the

saw liquidation on liberal scale.

opinion of near eastern news. In the
early trading the market was at its
lowest, at losses of II to 81 points,
January selling as low as 26.1S. New
buying appeared in sufficient volume
to check the decline, but no real

posting of the weekly statistics. Fol-
lowing them there was a full recovery

March being the strongest month and

MARKET DISPLAY
A STRONG TONE
Active Demand for st. Paul
and New Haven Railroad
Mortgages Is Days Feature

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.-Prices in
! today's bond market displayed de-
cidedly strong tone, with the active
demand for st. Paul and New Haven
railroad mortgages as the days fea-
ture Cash sales We're not as extern
sive as in the stock market, although
it was curious to note that the largest
volume of these was in the United
States government issues which are
selling near their high levels of the
year, making tax losses in those kinds
virtually neglible.
The sharp upturn in st. Paul and
New Haven bonds seemed to lend con-
firmation TO the belief that the recent
weakness grew out of selling to es-
tablish tax losses. st. Paul convert-
BILE SIS and New Haven 6's and the
so-called French rs of that road each
moved up more than 3 points, while

higher.

ment, the As, the consolidated As, the

stamped, each advancing to ga
points. Some of the other strong
spots in the railroad group were Bal
timore e Ohio refunding SIS, up )
points, Western Maryland AS, up L Sd,
and Erie consolidated As, up l SIS.
Foreign bonds were virtually ne
elected, although Mexican govern
ment and Cuba railroad SIS moved to
slightly higher ground. while Column
ban 6's dropped sharply. Except for
losses of and 10 cents on 500, re-
spectiveIy in Victory G-4's and the

securities moved to higher grounds.

IS cents higher, the second Las adj
vanced % cetns; the third 20 cents;
the fourth IS cents and the new
