Thing. to Think About
By Milton M. Schayer

1T Is the duty of every one to make
mt least one person happy during the

"Thats right. What did you do:'
II went TO see my nunt and she was
happy when | left"
We all know two kinds of people
one kind we are glad TO see come the
other we are glad to see GO Other
folks have the same classification.
The head lines of an advertisement
in the Literary Digest reads: Good

ed in is Good men on earth.
when we talk of chance or luck.
says Hosea Ballon. lit only goes To
show how little we know Of the laws
which govern cause and effect"
Which is another way of saying that
wishing won't win, but work will.

To improve your reasoning read

To improve your Judgment and good

To improve your patriotism and

r |NANC|AL MARkET EXTREMELY DULL
 DURING LAST WEEK
Trading On Stock Exchange LapSeS Back To Lowest
 Level Of Year

NEW YORK, July 15.-(By Asso- ciated ress.)-EXtreme dullness, which was attributed to the season and the current uncertainties in the business situation, characterized the chief financial markets of the past week. Trading on the New York Stock Exchange lapsed back to the lowest level for the past year, amounting to only about 100000 shares a day, At the same time. a firmer tone was in evidence particu- larlY toward the latter part of the eek. It was considered that the liquidation which preceded the end Of the half year had streng thened the speculative position materially and that the passage of the July 1 settle ments had removed most of the ne- cessity for liquidation. This steadied tone was apparent in both stocks and cotton.
 Rally Follows Speech
 Emphasis was also given to the reassuring character of the British statement of reparation policy. Pre- mier Baldwln's speech had been awaited with, some. apprehension, rumors having been circulated to the effect that a break in the entente was possible. The speech itself was taken as disposing of these rumors rather effectively. While the British premier said little which would in- dlcate the details of what his goven- ment considers a fair settlement, it was felt that a favorable atmosphere had been created and the reply to Germany is likely to mark further progress along the road to any agree ment. In any event the market showed disposition to rally after the statement was published
 Little fresh light was shed on the probable nature of the fall buying movements. Reports from the steel industry indicate a moderate falling oif in activity. Insot production in June was ' per cent below the ex- ceedinGly high level of May and q further loss was looked for in .Julv

O O o LOadings Set Record.

With the steel industry thus tes- tifying to a moderate slackening of pace, railroad car loadings have set new high records for all time. Some 1.022,000 cars of revenue freight were loaded in the week ended June 30, and this surpasss the performance in the week in October, 1920, when the pre- vious record was set. Notwithstanding this heavy traffic, the proportion of bad order cars has been reduced to a new low since December, 1920, and the surplus of freight cars in good order has increased to nearly 64,000. These figures were transportation facilities during the coming fall.
 Considerable attention was attri- buted to the continued decline in wheat prices to less than one dollar a bushel for the leading futures at Chicago. Under the circumstances particular attention attached to the products situation prepared by a com mittee of experts at the direction of the department of agriculture.
 This report took the ground that Europe's purchasing power is likely to be smaller. Under the circum- stances, the committee recommended 8 reduction in American production.
 That the foreign situation actually has affected the price of wheat is the opinion held in financial circles. It is pointed but that this springs depreci- ation of the exchanges, which re- suited from the Ruhr occupation, has not only reduced Europe's purchasing power, but has made necessary re- adjustment of American, prices to those existing in the world market.
