and peeps over the eastern hills,
thrusting out his golden horns. like
those which decked the brows of
Moses when he was forced to wear

tells the story, the sun gets up high

New York. Aug. l6.-(AP)-One OF
the most significant Of recent balance
sheets of the larger industrial COM
panies. including General Motors. AL
lied Chemical and others, is the mark
ed reduction in. or elimination of, bank
loans. This Is believed in some quar-
ters to account for the large sums
available for stock market purposes
at low rates, despite the unusually
heavy total of brokers' loans. An
other contributing factor has been the
decrease In funds required to finance
crop movements, particularly for ex-
port, because Of the sharp falling off

Right over Bobby's 'sloop, there
suddenly appeared a flock #
birds. They almost made a cloud
over the clear water of the lake

They fluttered in ,nid-air, for
a moment and then they dropped.
We stood fascinated. Down
they swooped and entirely sur
rounded Bobby's boat.
