GAIN At OPENING
Liverpool Market Shows Gain
With War Predictions,
By United PinanciaI

By United Financial
CHICAGO, March 8.--Gra1n prices
advanced at the opening of the Board
of Trade today, due to bullish foreign
news and a stronger Liverpool mar
ket. The statement Of J. Hamilton
Lewis, forecasting war in southeast
ern Europe within the near future IN
less the United States intervenes,
created a nervous feeling in the pit
Wheat advanced fractionally. Ar
gentina reported heavy demands from
nearby shippers. Export during the
night approximated 400, 900 bushels,
mostly Manitobas and durums. The
southwestern wheat crop was report
ed in a satisfactory condition follow
ing some rains.
Corn was bought heavily by feed
ers. A higher Argentine market pre-
vailed. About 100000 bushels were
worked for export overnight.
Better cash buying and moderate
export selling caused strength in oats.
Provisions were higher as result Of
heavy lard buying, said to be for ex-
port. and an irregular Liverpool mar

Sea Captains Daughter Has
Crossed Pacific Twice and Is
Master of Geography.

San Francisco, Cal.-Suppose you
were little girl five years old, and you
lived in a small apartment, nicely fur
nished though little crowded, with
your mother and father, and suppose
that when you walked out of the front
door you found yourself on the long,
narrow deck Of ship, with clouds and
clouds of white canvass overhead, and
nothing, as far as the eye could reach,
but the sea.
Suppose that instead Of learning to
play tag and hop scotch you learned
how to box the compass and knew
every line and rope and stay and sail
and piece of rigging on a ship; that In
stead of entertaining yourself with doll
house and playing grownup and going
to kindergarten you were amused by
being taught the difference between a
skysl and tops'l, spanker and jib.
brigantine and bark.
Suppose you were little sailor lass,
daughter Of ship captain and grand
daughter Of master and owner OF
ships, born within sight of the sea, and
never out of sight Of it and most OF
your life upon 1t.
If you were all these things you
would be exactly like Margaret Ster-
ling, mascot, favorite, tyrant, pet and
plaything of the ship e. r. Sterling,
the largest six-masted barkentine in
the world.
Father Is Captain.
Margarets father Is Capt. R. M.
Sterling, master Of the big barkentine,
who Is, in turn, son of Capt. e. r. Ster-
ling, manufacturing owner of the YES
sci and one Of the unusual and pic
turesque men Of the sea.

Says $4,000 Lives Can Be
Saved in u. S. Yearly

Louisville.-It is possible to reduce
the number of deaths from industrial
accidents at least so per cent to re-
duce the number of deaths from auto
mobile, railroad ana street car acci-
dents by at least 60 per cent, and to re-
duce the number of deaths from acct
dents in the home and in public places
by at least 80 per cent. 1t is possible
to save $4,000 of the $4,000 lives lost
through accidents in the United States
each year.
This statement was made here by G..
w. Price of New York city in an ad-
dress In connection with the opening Of
Louisvilles safety week" The state
ment was based, Mr. Price said, on the
experiences of New York city, Boston,
Cleveland, Pittsburgh, st. Louis, Balti-
more, Milwaukee, Detroit and Wash
ington.
"a careful study of the experience Of
these cities," Mr.. Price said, reveals
the significant fact that there are three
determining factors which are respon-
sible for the success of any community
public safety campaign. These three
factors are: Systematic daily safety
instruction in the public schools; a
continuous safety poster campaign on

5-Year-Old Girl
Mascot of Ship

| Margaret has been twice across the
Pacific, and into and out of most of
! the ports of the South seas. She
knows more about geography than the
average college graduate. In short,
Margaret is daughter Of the sea.
The whole family Is q remarkable
and interesting one. Captain Sterling
might have stepped right out of one Of
Peter B. Kyne's "Cappy Kicks" stories,
for every minute of his life is full Of
the sort of modern sea business Of
which Kyne writes so Interestingly.
His son, Capt. Ray Sterling. would
have come from one Of Joseph Con-
RAIDS tales. He might have been the
young master in the story called
Youth" He is quiet reserved, solidly
built, clear-eyed, capable, thoughtful
and q master seaman.
His wife, Margaret's mother. might
have come out Of novel by Kath-
leen Norris or by William McFie. She
is too pretty for any possible ship
masters wife; she is gracious hos
tess, pleasant, well read, cultured
quiet voiced little Australian girl, full
Of fun and Jokes, an ideal mother and
an unusual wife. Her romance with
the silent. grave. strong young Captain
Sterling Is story by itself. She was
one Of the bellies Of Australia before
her marriage, and 1t is safe to assume
that the captains luck left more than
tn hn NJ
forlorn and bereft.
Life Full Of ThriIis.
There have been enough adventures
packed into the lives Of these people
aboard the E. r. Sterling to make sew
eral books. They think little OF them.
Margaret, the baby, is as blase as an
old salt.
I'm getting perfectly tired Of this
life." she said, with yawn. II pre-
fer to stay ashore and I'm going to
make daddy give up the ship and come
with us to live in house soon."
She talks like woman of twenty at
times. But who wouldn't, If she had
only old sailors and mother and father
to learn with and from, and only saw
other little people once In blue moon
when the big barkentine is tied up at
some pier or In some dock discharging
or taking on cargo
Margaret says she is going to make
the captain stay ashore soon so that
she can go to school and have back
yard and a sand pile and play with
little girls Of her age as much as she
likes.
