very narrow, in no important instance ex-

ex-dividend was subjected to further sell
ing pressure and Mexican oils also eased.
Motors and kindred speeialties and Pull

and rails were moderately better. Foreign

The market established a firmer founda-
ton during the morning on fairly large
buying of high grade rails. especially
Transcontinental and Changers Low
priced rails, particularly Sc. Paul, New

simulated upward movement in equip

met with a great loss in the going
away of Rev. and Mrs. Sterling Brew
er. Mr.. Brewer has served this church
most faithfully and very acceptably
as pastor for over two years. In all
his work as pastor he has been ably
assisted by Mrs. Brewer, who is a
model pastors wife. They have
shown remarkable taste and excellent
judgment in meeting the conditions
in a community where the Christian
workers were of different denomina-
tons.
The church building has been re-
paired largely through Mrs. Brewer
efforts and several new voices are
heard in the testimony meetings, al
togather the last two years have been
the most prosperous for the church in
every way for many years.
While doing so much for this
church, Mr.. and Mrs. Brewer have
carried on about the same work at
West Washington where the chapel
has been repaired and a series of re-
vival meetings held. There has been
a Baptism in each place.
Mr.. and Mrs. Brewer have received

Franklin Announces
Seven New Body Styles

The seven new body styles an
nounced by the Franklin Automobile
Company are regarded by those who
have seen them on their first appear
ance. as the finest that have ever
| been identified with the Franklin. In
the 1923 cars, Franklin designers
have succeeded in giving to conven-
tional lines the definite mark of char
acter.
| The new Franklin bodies have
lower top lines, increased length and
| they are wider above the body rail.
These changes in construction en-
abled the designers to effect greater
interior roominess.
The compactness of the new motor
has made it possible to provide more
space in the drivers compartment
and by the additional length of the
