What To Be

What To BE
Be cheerful, optimistic.
Be willing to forbear
With every kind of trouble
And never to despair.
Be free from all suspicion,
Seek no motive for the act,
Accept all things with kindness,
Judiciousness and tact.
Be kind to every mortal,
But yet select a few
To bear the name of friendship
And tread the road with you.
And you will find that living
Is not a dreary bore
And life has many blessings
You did not know before.

Storm Causes Delay Mails

The storm again put everything
in the transportation line out OF
business last night, and there were
no mails out of town and none in
until late. The Augusta mail stage
started but after going less than
three miles had to turn and come
back and the mail due to reach Bos-
ton early this morning did not leave
here until Z A. NJ. today. The train
due here at o'clock arrived at $40
having on board the basketball team
from Gorham Normal school and a
big bunch of rooters from that in
stitution. The banquet planned had
to be given up before the game be-
cause of the lateness of the hour
and a quick lunch substituted, this
delinquency being made up for later
The Pennington Normal School
Band was on hand when the bunch
from Gorham arrived and so were
the bigger part of the 400 girls in
the Pennington school. The crowd
paraded the principal streets, led by
the band. waving banners and at
tracing much favorable attention in
spite ,of the gale then blowing. Then
came the game at the Armory
which was packed with hilarious
students. Gorham put up a splen-
did game. but Pennington went it
one better, Cough being the star
actor for the local school, which
Won over Gorham by a score of 81

The Maine Central Institute bas-
ketball team came to town on the

their umpire did not arrive until the

took place at the Abbott gymnasi-
UNI, was also delayed. 1t was a fine
game, however, the gym being filled
with enthusiasts, who were in the
end well repaid for any hardship
they were obliged to undergo. Maine
Central Institute made one more
basket than Abbott school was able
to. winning by score of % to 81
one of the best games played in
Pennington this season. Both games
resulted creditably for the local
teams, even though one lost by a
narrow margin. and it was a great
basket ball night in spite of the I'M

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Oct 22-(H9-Wheat and
corn scored a lively advance in price
today. Unusual scarcity of offerings
toward the last led to something of a
furry among traders who had been ac-
tive speculative sellers. Talk was cur
rent that an unofficial crop looked
for at Winnipeg would prove bullish.
Chicago closing quotations on wheat
were strong, 2A cents to cents net
higher, corn rs cents to rs cents up,
oats at 3s cent to Is cent gain, and
provisions varying from the same as
yesterdays finish to rise of % cents.
On today's bulge in values, wheat
climbed TO the highest point reached
for some time, with May delivery here
touching $3.50, even. Simultaneous
with the rise, Winnipeg advices We're
current telling of a good demand from
mills and from exporters as well. Fears
were also expressed that private Ca
madam crop summaries due at this
time would show heavy losses on ac-
count of recent hot weather Some
Winnipeg messages, however, cast
doubt on predictions that new esti-
mates of the 1926 wheat yield in the
greatly below 367 100000 bushels, fore
cast a month ago.
Warmer weather and rains in Argen-
tina, together with unexpected weak
ness of wheat values at Liverpool, had
temporary bearish effect here dur
ing the first part of the day. On the
other hand though, friends of higher
prices were emphatic that the United
States has the best quality of wheat
anywhere obtainable at present and at
the low est G har g>e S for freight.
Strength of the corn market counted
also as late stimulating factor in re-
gard to wheat Unfavorable huslling
returns gave strength to the corn mar
ket right from the outset. Besides,
eastern demand for cash corn showed
Improvement. Oats sympathized with
corn.
Packers buying of October and No
vember lard helped the provision mar
ket upgrade.
