While some lots of 92 score sold up to ssc. a larger percentage of the dealers were willing to sell at 3SMc.

BUYING OF STEEL AND EQUIPMENTS
 FEATURED STOCKS
By Associated Presr

New York, September 1i.~-Exten- sive buying of steel and equipments. several of which were pushed up 70 new high records, and pool opera tions in specialties which resulted in a number of substantial gains. fea- tured todays session of the stock market. Profit taking in other parts of the list combined with specula- tive selling in Studebaker. Chandler and some of the foreign oils gave the market a spotty appearance at times.
 United States Steel common was one of the individual features, touch ing 1O6, its highest level since 1920. This was attributed. in part. to the monthly tonnage report issued Sat urday afternoon, which showed an h. crease of approximately 174,o00 tons in unified orders, ore nearly 12b,000 more than conservative estimates had forecast. However, the increase was due in part to inability to make de- lfveriea. owing to the rail congestion and coal shortage.
 American Steel foundries, which jumped up 3% points, was the out standing stock in the equipment group in which several high records were made. American Locomotive. Baldwin, Railway Steel Spring and Pullman, all held at the years best prices, the new gains ranging from fractions to sA points,
 Food shares also were pushed up in spirited fashion, Austin Nichols was heavily traded in, closing at B net gain of 2h points. National Bis cult was up l and Beechnut, after an early display of strength, eased off small fraction below Saturdays close on realizing sales.
 Railroad Shares
 Railroad shares were a bit unset tied at the beginning of the session but good buying support set In to- wards the close and some substantial gains were made, especially py Una dividend paying group. Union Pa cific broke through to a new high. presumably in response to reports of a possible distribution of some of Its treasury securities and Atchison duplicated it's previous high of loS. New York Central Rock lsland' Northern Pacific, Missouri Pacific preferred and "Soo" common and pre- ferred also made good progress.
 Independent Steels followed the lead of United States common. Beth lehem B, Republic and Gulf States, each advancing a point or more.
 Mexican Oils were inclined to heaviness during most of the session but they recovered well toward The close, Mexican Petroleum and he Mexican Seaboard issues each making small fractional gains. General As phalt, common and preferred, were heavy throughout declining approx imately K and 8 points respectively. Total sales were 100000 shares.
 Call money opened at per cent but hardened to 41a in the final hour. There was little time money offered and virtually no change in rates. The commercial paper market also was quiet
 Foreign exchange rates were TO- actionary in sympathy with the Lon don rates, which in turn were in- fluenced by the military develop ,,,nnta in the near east. Demand ster ling and the continental rates all showed recessions. the German mark falling below cents a hundred.

VOICE RECITAL

Mrs. F. A. Nunvar presented her
advanced pupils in their first recital
last Thursday evening, Nov. 16, at
Union College Chapel. The program
was rare treat. 1t consisted of
not only we'll prepared solos, but
also presented trios, duets, violin OBJ
ligato numbers and a snappy oper-
eta for the closing selection. The
pupils showed many signs of devel-
opment under her direction and if
the future programs run along the
line of this one it is safe to prophecy
that they will be well patronized by
the community.
Union College faculty has been
greatly strengthened this year by
the coming of Prof. and Mrs. Nun
var and those who appreciate good
music will do well to watch the an
nouncements in order not to miss

j. MITCHELL
TAKES HIS OWN LIFE

The many friendy of Frank j.
Mitchell, cement contractor, we're
greatly shocked when a telephone
message was received Saturday
morning. stating that he had ended
his life by hanging. Mr.. Mitchell and
son John we're enaged in cement
work on the new road near East
Bernstadt and it appears from later
reports that deceased had been act
ing queerly for some days and had
been watched. The self destruction
took place while the rest of the
party were at breakfast, a coal
house being chosen for the act. After
finishing breakfast. his son John and
nephew Elmer made an immediate
search for deceased and it was not
more than fifteen minutes before he
was found by Elmer Mitchell
The remains were brought to
Barbourville for interment, the
funeral being held at the family
home on Dishman' street, Sunday
afternoon, Rev. John owen Gross in
charge. A very large number of
friends attended the funeral, as we'll
as the interment in the City Gene
terry, where 500 people assembled to
pay last tribute to their friend.
The ceremony at the grave wGs in
the hands Of the 1. o. o. F. of which
he was a member.
Deceased was a man of a happy
nature and was the last man one
would have expected to destroy his
own life and the only explanation is
temporary insanity.
He leaves a wife and eleven child
ren, several of whom are quite
young to mourn his loss and for
whom there will be a deep sympathy.
Frank j. Mitchell was born in
Knox County, September 80, 1858
and has lived life of usefulness to
his community. He was a good hus-
band and father and in his death, he
leaves to his children the heritage
of one for whom the world is better
for his having lived

TALK BY ROBERT W. COLE
BEFORE HIGH SCHOOL PUPILS

On Tuesday morning Robert w.
Cole, w. R. Lay and A. j. Croley
attended the High School Chapel ex-
ercises in the interest of banking
education--or thrift. Mr.. Cole ad-
dressed the pupils in accordance
with a line of education in useful
ness of banks determined upon at
the recent meeting of the American
Bankers Association held in New
York and which was attended by
the great financers of this country
and by many from other countries.
Mr.. Cole discussed in simple Ian
guage that could be followed easily
by the pupils, 1st-What is a bank?
1t is not simply place to get money.
1t is an institution which serves a
community.
How organized? By the people
buying stock until S25,OOO, for a
national bank or $4,000 for a state
bank, has been deposited. Thus the
bank is an institution belonging to
the people. They are fitted upto
to make them secure with safes and
vaults.
How is a bank managed? You
can put your money in a bank and
get it out the next day or any time.
How then do they have any money
to pay salaries and expenses Ex-
perience shows that not all the de-
positors will take out their money
at once and altho some withdraw
theirs others make new deposits.
Thus there is always money on hand.
This money is loaned out to business
men who pay interest and thus make
their income with which to pay ex-
penses and pay dividends to the
stockholders.
Value of checking account. 1t
is a fact that only 10 of the bust
ness of the United States is done
with the actual money, the rest be-
in done by the use of checks. BY
their use business is made simpler.
An endorsed check is a receipt that
an account has been paid.
Always use the same signature so
it can be recognized by the bank Of
ficials. The bank is the loser if the
check is paid to the wrong person
so great care is taken to prevent
mistakes. A saving deposit or a GER
tificate of deposit cannot be checked
against.
Thrift accounts are made up Of
small sums. Learn toFdeny yourself
in some things. The habit of saving
grows. Everyone wants to be sue
eessful and success depends on self
denial
