Comet-Legs was the rival of MI.
Peerabout, the A-Man-in-the-Moon
One day he rode up to the moon
on his star and hoped off.
Now them said he. tn Just
go round to the cities of the moon
and show the moon people how
handsome I am. Nc doubt they'll
put old Peerabout out and give
me his place:
He's too old anyway. and.
earth folks want a change. III

The idea tickled Comet7Legs5so
much he began to no, no and hes,
hee till his round tummy shook
up and down like aplum pudding.
ByRn' by he came to mountain
top and looked down at the earth:
When he got up. there was old
Peerabout looking at him!
Quick as a wink he gave the
Moon-Man a push, and away Went
he head over heels into space.
Comet-Legs went on his way: He
was so tickled he began to make

distinctly irregular appearance.
There was renewed activity by pools
in specially stocks, but proportionate
appreciation was realized in many is
sues deserving of Investment rating.
Net results involved preponderance
Of gains despite the setbacks attribu-
table TO proft-taking sales and there
was full evidence Of underlying op-
timism in the outlook.
Conceding the non-effect Of dis
couraging foreign news upon specula-
tive sentiment, the news bddget con-
tributed little to the bases upon which
market movements are built. The
most significant development OF the
week, the 20 per cent advance in wages
to common labor in the steel industry,
was not used TO influence stock prices,
which only occasionally responded to
specific external happenings. In so far
as the upward swing was extended, the
market was merely registering the
confidence engendered by the outlook
FOR bumper grain crops, by the resump
tion of bituminous coal mining, by
credit ease and by the prospect Of bet
ter business for railroad, industrial
and other corporations.
Whatever the reasons deemed by the
United States Steel Corporation suf-
fcient to warrant 20 per cent in
crease In the pay of common labor,
that event was accepted as definitely
closing the period of wage deflation.
With the struggle to adjust wages
downward in line with prices over, it
would seem probable that recovery
in both instances might now be an
ticipated. The steel and building in
dustry, the railroads and the coal
o~erators now recognize wage levels
that do not accord with remuneration
in many other fields and competition
is bound to restore a reasonable rela-
tionship.
Accelerated depreciation Of the mark,
accompanied by further disorganization
of German financial and economic con-
ditions, has emphasized during the last
week the dangers inherent in the
| European situation from the impasse
| reached in the effort to adjust repara-
tions. The purchasing power of Ger
man currency expressed in dollars is
already negligible, less than five hun
| dreths Of cent, and international
bankers see reason to believe that its
value will continue to dwindle, barring
| settlement, of which at present there
| is little sign. 1t appears altogether
probable that the collapse may extend
to the point where Germany Is equally
/ shorn of ability to buy the things she
needs abroad, as Austria, leaving out
of consideration entirely the payment
of her obligations to the Allies. Each
week that passes makes it more diff
cult to check the progress Of dry-rot
now under way and complicates the
restoration of Germany to solvent posi-
tion. The situation in which Germany
is expected shortly to find herself will
differ from that. of Austria only in that
she will possess broader bases upon
which to rebuild her economic struc-
ture and from that of Russia only in
that similar political catastrophe is
