COMMENTS ON FRIDAYS
PROGRAM

About the only thing to be regret
ted concerning the program last Fri
day is that more people did not at
tend. American Education week was
set aside by Pres. Harding for the
purpose of trying to arouse the in
terest Of every community in its
schools. The small attendance last
Friday presents to US the lamentable
fact that there is lack of interest on
the side Of the parents in what the
school is doing, and what it could and
should do. We all know, when con-
sidering it seriously, that without the
cooperation of the community as a
whole the school alone cannot do
much toward realizing better condi-
tions in our educational system.
President Kaye had suddenly been
taken i'll and therefore was not able
to be present. Presumably this was
disappointment to all. Professor
Brown Of the Marquette Normal
came in his stead and proved himself
to be an entertaining speaker. He
was able to hold the attention of his
audience to the very end.
He discussed the serious problems
of our present-day education, litter
acy and immigration. Though the
latter may seem far-fetched yet II
vitality concerns education in that the
greatest percent Of illiteracy is to be
found among foreigners.
There should be democracy in
education. No school should be bet
tsr than the other and every boy and
girl should get equal opportunities.
Each one should be taught what he
q interested in and not made to wan
der IN fields Of thought or work he IL
not fitted for.
Al : whole, the program was .

HOLY NAME JUBILEE

A brilliant success marked the week
Of December 3, during which the Holy
Name Society of L'Anse held it's Ju-
bilee. At the solemn opening, Rev
Hubert Zimmerman of Hubbell deliv-
cred a masterful and eloquent SER
mon. He took az his topic the name
of Jesus, the most enduring is history
and the only one that has been loved
and cherished through the centuries,
At the Solemn Benediction which fol-
lowed, Rev. Henry Refs, Of Lake Lin
den, acted as deacon, and Rev. d. Jos.
Breault, the local pastor, as sub-dea-
con.
Monday and Tuesday evenings,
Rev. Geo. Laforest, Diocesan Direct
or, made a stirring appeal to the
faithful to keep the faith. Wednes-
day evening, Rev. A. j. Rezek, L. L.
d. pastor Of st. Ignatius church,
Houghton, spoke on the name Of Je-
sus, its origin, and the meaning it
should have in the daily lives of Cath
olics.

cred the sermon. Sunday, December

saw crowded church. Every avail
able space was occupied, in spite of
the cold weather. Thirty-two new
members were received into the Holy
Name Society, making a total mem
bership up to date of ninety-six. Rev.
Fr. Paquet took occasion to review
the aims and purposes of the. Holy
Name Society, especially in this coun-
try where religion is being relegated
to second place in the lives of men.
He scored profanity and immortality,
and jerjury, which the Holy Name
man is in honor bound to combat, both
by word and example.
A solemn Procession Of the Blessed
Sacrament closed the Holy Name ac-
tivities, at which Rev. N. J. Raymond,
Of Lake Linden, Rev. Peter Blocker,
Of Champion, and Rev. d. J. Breault,
the local pastor, assisted. f

Opening higher, the gains were gradually widened, heaviest buying pressure being felt in the afternoon when the, list was at net gains of 46 to 63 points, with March up to 16.05c. The close was steady at net gains of 46 to 60 points. March closing at 16.o1c.
 While the higher opening was due mainly to a much better Liverpo ol market than expected. the later strength seemed to come from buy ing by interests outside the market itself. comment on the floor of the exchange being to the effect that large Chicago buying was under way. Steadiness in the stock market bull ish talk regarding grain and predic- tions of lower bank rates all helped to stimulate bullish sentiment. In the afternoon the supply of contracts became very small,
 New England mill news was con- sidered unfavorable because of tho apparent increase in the chances that strike next Monday but such news had little or no effect against prices, being offset by claims of more in- Quiry in the spot department. The cold weather. over the belt was con- sdered unfavorable because of the liklihood that 1t would interfere. to some extent at elast, with new crop preparations.

Runor That Whect
 Is in Danger Led to q
 Steady Rise tn Value

Chicago, February S.-Fear that the domestic winter crop of wheat is perhaps in serious danger of curtail- ment on a large scale led today to a steady advance in values. The mar ket for wheat closed unsettled, 24 c to 5c net higher, with May at s1.30T to s1s1, and July s116A to $t16A Corn gained Ss@%c to 1Ac. Oats ls sc to lzc and provisions Sc to 15c.
 News of dust and windstorms in Kansas aroused decided apprehension among wheat traders that the crop in that state, already at disadvant- age from continued drought, might suffer severely, and the yield be greatly reduced as compared with the usual amount. The secretary of the Kansas Grain Dealers association was quoted as saying that the million acres of wheat in Kansas would not be harvested this year, and that the condition of great deal of other wheat in the state was critical. Ex- cessive dryness in western Oklahoma and Nebraska added to misgivings which had been aroused in the last half of the day far more than offset price declines that earlier were caused by downturns in quotations at Liverpool and Buenos Aires July trades, which would be directly af- fected by crop damage. showed at one time bulge of CSC Absence of milling or export demand kept the price of the May delivery, however, within ordinary limits.
 Corn and oats reflected in some degree the rise of the wheat mar ket. but were restrained by much rural selling of corn to arrive here. Besides shipping demand here was slow. Provisions went higher in price on account of the upward swing of the grain and hog markets

Vigorous Aduance
 in Foreign Exchange

New York, February S.-On the most active trading Of any day this year, the foreign exchange market today continued it's vigorous advance. The sustaining influence was the sterling remittances, demand bills on London recording the new high quo tations of s436 7-16. This is the top figure commanded by British bills in over 212 years and bring that cur rency within 90 cents of it's normal or pre-war value, as against the de- preciation to s3.19-~ made in Febru ary of 1921.
 Other European exchanges rose in sympathy, allied remittances scoring best prices on steady buying until late in tue afternoon and closing at net gains of 12 to S points. So- called neutral exchanges, especially Dutch, Norwegian and Swedish rates, were substantially higher and Ger man marks rallied to .52ss, their highest price since the middle of January.

MORE STRENGTH SHOWN IN COTTON
 LIST YESTERDAY.
Staple Closed Firm at a Net Advance of Thirty seven to Fifty-five Points
 on the Day
By Associated Press

New York, February 8,-The cotton market showed increasing strength and activity today, selling up to 16.s5c for May contracts or 55 points net higher and 70 points above the low level of Monday. That delivery closed at 16.S0c with the general market closing firm at net advances of 37 to 55 points
 The better tone of the market was most generally attributed to R more favorable view of conditions abroad and a continued absence of spot pressure In the south.
 Liverpool was better than due with an increased volume of spot business, and the market here opened firm at an advance of 8 to 1s points. There was some Liverpool selling on strad- dle and scattered realizing. but other wise few contracts appeared to be for sale around the ring and prices worked steadily higher. Covering became a little more active as the market advanced and while more profit taking was encountered as prices worked above the 17-cent mark for March, last prices were within a few points of the best.
 March sold up to 17.1sc and July to 16,44c, the highest prices touched since the break to 16c for March and 15.50c for July at the end of last month. The settlement of the Ger man railway strike was among tho more encouraging features in the for eign news, and the more optimistic view of the situation abroad was promoted by the continued firmness of foreign exchange rates and re- ports that exporters were showing little more interest in Southern spot markets. London advices received late in the day indicating that fort nightly settlements were to be re- sumed in the stock market there ex- cept on foreign business and that he policy of publicly announcing fail- ures would be resumed also, made very favorable impression on senti- mont here, as indicating a greatly improved financial position in the London market. No change was re- ported in the news from New Eng land mill centers or the cotton goods market.

 HIGHEST IN YEARS
Foreign Bonds Continue to Advance With the Higher Range of Leading Ex-
 changes
By Associated Press

New York, February S.-Oper2- tions in the financial markets today were overshadowed by the strength of International curreneies. Prac- tically all the important European exchanges rose to highest prices Tn one to two and a half years, again under lead of British remittanees.
 Minor or speculative rails and few standard appropriations furnished much of the activity and strength shown by the stock market. The general list was inclined to ease from the outset and closed with a heavy tone, coincident with call moneys rise from to 5i5 per cent.
 Low grade motors. the cheaper oils, food specialties and the chain store group were the special targets of the shorts, whose concerted at lacks upon those shares met with lit tie opposition.
 Buying of rails was credited to a group of local traders. their bullish attitude apparently being based on the better showing recently made by many roads, especially grangers and cotton carriers, these featuring the days movement.
 Steels and equipments were listless until the final hour when Gulf States, Crucible, Republic and Mid vale reacted 1 to almost points, with Baldwin, Studebaker, Mexican Petroleum. General Asphalt. Mercan- tile Marine preferred and American International Sterling demand bills sold at a fraction above s4.36 before the close of the market and the sev- eral allied exchanges were 12 to 1o points higher. Dutch, Danish and Swedish bills rose 8 to 22 points and the more remote continental centers. including Spain and Greece, moved upward to 10 points.
 Foreign bonds continued to ad vance with the higher range of lead ing exchanges. United Kingdom 1922 and 1929 made appreciable gains and most French issues were within easy range of last years best prices.
