THE EXPECTED REACTION.
BY STUART p. WEST
tCoypright. 1922.l


Most of the Wall street brokers'
letters issued over the week end
were preparing their clients for a
further reaction, but were advising
the purchase OF stocks at the lower
prices. OF course these adyices are
rather meaningless so long as they
do not contain any prediction as to
how much OF q reaction to expect
Nevertheless, the general attitude
this morning was for those on the
long side to reduce their lines or at
least take on nothing more. This
led to a scattering fire of selling
orders accompanied by rather poor
support in some directions.
MEXICAN PETROLEUM.
The board room was actively cir
culating this morning a rumor to
account for the weakness in Mex
lean Petroleum. This was to the
effect that a large block had been
sold out of the Pan-American
treasury some time ago to local
banking syndicate which was work
ing on an option agreement. The
gossip was that when Mexican Pc
troleum was run up a while ago
above 128 it was for the purpose OF
enabling the unloading of this stock,
and that the recent decline has been
mainly the result of the constant
large addition to the floating supply.
SUGAR STOCKS.
There was further selling OF the
sugar stocks at the start, but later
the decline was checked on the
appearance of decidedly better sup
port. This later buying apparently
reflected the real attitude OF people
in the sugar trade rather than the
preceding selling which was en-
tirely speculative. Cuban Producers
are very optimistic over the long
range outlook.

About Ants, Eleph-
ants and Us.

The Hindoo tells US that he gets good work from
that giant creature only so long he is good to It
Should he abuse offend it. he would lose the ee-
plants willingness to work and he might lose his
life by ncurring the elephants ire To appease the
elephant the Hndoo always feeds it before he him.
self partakes of food.
That gentleness and generosity do much to gain
good work. is the moral lesson the scientist hands
the result of these observations
But who wants to be either elephant or an ant?
Who would want to emulate their ways, interesting
and perhaps intellectual as they appear to be?
The elephant has none of the generosity for which
the scientific observer pleads The elephant says,
Feed me first or am likely to get mad and kick the
dayghts of you" There is nothing in that sort
OF spirit worth emulating.
The ant is good to its own but il wars on every
other creature that il subdue and USE There
is nothing so very big and magnanmous about that.
What is more, outside of the grotesque trick ele-
plants in the circus ring, scientist has ever called
upon us to>see or hear animal symphony nor have
they shown us an animal-made picture gracefully
formed statue. Has any ever yet seen an ele-
phant pause in rapture before a gorgeous sunset?
What eye at the microscope has ever seen an ant
lay down its work upon its hill to bark to the song
Of the lark? =,
Whatever mans mperfections he is not only
the research student the truth seeker but what is
finer, he is the great appreciation. To re able to
appreciate the wonders of the wordthat in itself is
living the higher life

BIOLOGISTS, who, in simpler language, are the
Abug-ologists, after microscopcally observing the
habits and conduct of ants for years. bring the n
teresting information that these busy little workers
in the humber world by their voluntary
action the most moral Of all living creatures.
The ant, they tell us, is SO intelligent that
justified in trying to describe its existence by kind
of allegorcal comparison with human life
Busy these minute little creatures their
females scrupulously clean. Several times each
day they better their appearance with combs and
brushes. The mothers the only that are
allowed to eat all they want. All others, by their
established law, must abstain from eating and
drinking. sA~seSa-~~~s
Soldier ants protect both the young and those who
care for the young. The mother ant is treated with
all the Difference of empress.
The ants limit their sleep to just that which is
their need Of rest and they destroy the drone and all
those who would attempt to over-indulge in leisure
or luxury
7 They have architects and engineers. They build
houses and bridges to conform with definite plans
They have their agriculture and horticulture and
have been observed to domestcate many 584
different kinds of creatures.
NWonderfu is the story of the ant Some of
scientists who better biologists than socologsts
quote the old Hebrew saying of thousands of years
ago. go to the ant thou sluggard, consider her way
and suggest that there is much in the ant the man
might well try to emulate.

State College Specialists
Mary Ann GRAY


Common Stains and Their Removal
Every housewife at times has trying
experiences with stains, but there are
some common agents by which stains
end discolorations can be removed,
proved by home economics experts.
Colored candle wax dropped on table
linen can be eradicated by applying
hot iron and two pieces of blotting
paper which absorb the wax. Then
the color is removed by soaking ma
erial in dcnatured alcohol for a few
minutes.
Fruit, tea, coffee and chocolate dis
colorations are removed by holding
the cloth taut over a bowl and pour
ing boiling water over the stain. A
paste Of borax and cold water, with
much rinsing, takes out chocolate cas-
lily and usually grease spots yield to
soap and hot water treatment. Iron
rust comes out by applying a paste Of
table salt and lemon juice several
times, alternating with steam from
the tea kettle spout. Black grease
or tar stains can be removed by rub
bing spots with lard then wash in hot
suds.
Javelle Water is a good commercial
bleach, but it cant be used on col
ored materials as it destroys color.
Use only on cotton and linen. Make
a solution of equal parts of water and
the bleach, soak cloth in it few
minutes, rinse well and in the last
rinsing add a few drops of ammonia
water.
