STEVENSON WILL
GIVE SERMON ON
'SELF-JUDGMENT'

'Self-Judgment" is the subject of
the morning sermon by Rev. John
McGown Stevenson, pastor, in the
Broadway Presbyterian church to-
morrow. A curious example of how
men will condemn sin in the alb
stract and have the power of judg-
ment righteously with others but
helpless with themselves because Of
deception will be brought out in the
sermon.
In the evening the theme of the
address is Americas Enemies"
There is more than one enemy and
it is just as dangerous now as
during the war. Certain tendencies
in the life of our cities and land
which are leading us unconsciously
are being fostered by the enemies of
the flag, political and ethical enc
mics" Rev. Stevenson said.
The quartet with Miss Katherine
Gest at the organ will sing appro-
pirate music. Rev. John McGown
Stevenson will preach at both ser
vices. Those who have no church
home are cordially welcome to these
services.

STIRRUP JARS
FOUND IN RUINS
OF OLD PALACE

: Athens.-Dr. Keramopoulos. one
of the Greek inspectors of antioui-
ties, has accomplished some most
! interesting work in the ruins of the
palace at Thebes. According to
legend, this palace was founded by
Cadmus, who is said to have first
brought the alphabet to Greece.
IN previous campaigns, the re-
mains OF the fresco decoration of
the earlier palace, 1000 to 400 B.
C., were brought to light. This
consisted largely OF a frieze of
deliberately dressed and coiffured
women carrying flowers, painted
jugs. or ivory boxes.
This year the excavator has
found some of the store rooms of
the later palace, 400 to 100 B G.
From these there have been ex-
tracted a hundred or more big
stirrup jars. They are unfortun-
ately broken. but they can be put
together again.
A considerable number OF these
lars have painted on them inscrip-
lions in the still undecipherable
Mycenean alphabet. The letters or
rather signs are OF a hieroglyphic
character and are derived but diff
fer from the well known and equal
ly undecipherable Cretan pre-his-
toric alphabet. Scientist believe it
is possible that the difference of
alphabet means a difference of Ian
guage.
However much professors NAV
dispute about the meaning and
character of these alphabets, Ath-
ems archaeological circles attach
special interest to the fact that an
cient tradition has once more been
proved right by the discovery of
what might be called Cadmean let
ters in the ruins OF Cadmus' city.

MOST INTEREST
AGAIN CENTERS
IN MAY wheat
(By Consolidated Press. }

Chicago, May 12-Trade in wheat
was not nearly so big as the day
before. Interest was again exhib-
tied in the May. which started on
buying by bull leaders, but after
prices were up l cent they put some
wheat on the market and eased the
situation. At cent below the pre-
vioGs close there was buying by
commission houses, some of II by
elevator interests. A steamer I'M
loaded $1,000 bushels of No. win
ter red wheat brought back from
Buffalo and hard wheat was bought
at Minneapolis, St. Joe, Mo-. and
Kansas City and Omaha to come to
this market. Weather over the
winter wheat belt was favorable.
Domestic shipping demand for
wheat was light, but Minneapolis
reported an advance of &c to &C in
premiums for low grades. Flour
trade was somewhat better Sea-
board reported good sized export
business in wheat working. Ar
gentine shipments were 1000 900
bushels heavier than last week, but
Australia shipped 100000 bush
els less.
There was little trade in corn.
May acted tight early, but liquida-
ton Sc. in shortly before midday
and the advances were wiped out.
In the deferred futures trade was
mostly in the way Of changing at
21sc difference.
Locals were inclined to watch
the trend in wheat while making
their commitments in oats and gov
erned themselves accordingly. Cash
demand was checked by the ad-
vance of the day before. Oats fol-
lowed the trend of other grains
Cash houses bought early and later
eastern houses sold. Cash demand
was not so good as of late
Provisions were quiet. Commits
sion houses bought lard and bid
up prices.

Curb Market
BY STUART p. WEST
(Copyright, 1922

New York, May 12-There was
a better feeling on the curb ex-
change today. Room traders COW
cred their shorts, put out during
the past few days and there was d
resumption of buying by commits
sion houses in some issues. Oil
shares were again the leaders but
some of the miscellaneous issues
also were in greater demand than
in some time. Brooklyn City rail-
road sold at the highest price
touched since the receivership. TO-
bacco Products exports was active
and strong, showing an advance IN
sympathy with issues of the stock
exchange controlled by the same
interests. Profit taking caused a
later recession. Philip Morris re-
corded fractional advance and
fimness was shown in Goodyear
common. The motor shares were
in better demand, Daniels advanc-
ing to a new high record on rother
urgent buying by houses which
have been identified with the SELL
ing of the preferred stock. Cuban
Dominican sugar was less active
but continued it's advance and
went into new high ground AMI
American Drugs Stores duplicated
its top made a day or two ago.
An urgent demand for Mexican
Seaboard at sharp advance was
the feature of the oil group. There
was considerable irregularity in
this group, a number of issues
showing small losses on moderate
selling orders. Standard Oil of In
diana was lower at the start but
rallied later, and Imperial OH of
Canada rose several points. Omar
Oil was higher due to a scarcity of
offerings. Mining shares were ac-
tive but irregular. Boston and
Montana reached the dollar mark
for the first time in several months,
independence Lead was higher.
There was a better demand for
bonds but price changes were
small.
