STOCK PRICES
REACTIONARY
ON WEDNESDAY
(By Dispatch A. P. wirel
Stock market averages;

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-Stock prices
turned reactionary just before the close
of today's market under a heavy vol
ume of selling for both accounts
Previously, the market had fluctuat-
ed in an erratic manner with specu4a-
tors for the arvance making strenuous
efforts to keep prices pointed upward
Although General Motors, u S. Steel,
common, and about score other stocks
attained new peak prices for the year,
most of them closed lower on the day.
From a stock market standpoint, the
most interesting incident of the day
was the publication of a statement by
Thomas Cochrane of J. p Morgan &
Co., denying that he predicted an ad-
vance of 100 points in that stock, but
admitting that he gave an interview
prior to- his departure for Europe in
which he spoke: with enthusiasm Of
the earnings, management and pros
poets of the General Motors corpora
ton The stock opened at 214h, a
new high record, but broke to 205 u on
a savage bear attack before the end of
the first half hour, quickly swapping
back to around 211. 1t was selling,
statement appeared at midday, and
Immediately dropped to 2O6k, but later
rallied to 214. Another selling attack
in the final hour carried it down to
2O615, for net loss of points on the
day. Total sales of the stock ran close
to 100000 shares.
The general market followed the
trend of General Motors during most
of the session, but new leaders were
brought forward by spectators for the
advance during the afternoon in an APP
parent effort to increase interest by
broadening the scope of the market.
Operations were aided by the lower
ing of the renewal rate on call money
from Az to Az per cent. Lower figure
being shaded still further in the. out
side market by the publication of an
other series of earnings statements and
by the declaration of an extra dividend
on Standard Oil of Indiana.
Rails were sluggish in quiet trading,
despite the announcement that car
loadings in the week ended July "a, es-
tablished new high record for the
year. Favorable earnings and dividend
news from the oil industry was coun-
teracted by the announcement that the
daily average gross crude production
increased over $4,000 barrels last week.
A strong demand persisted for local
gas stocks, Brooklyn Union touching a
new high at 953s and Consolidated at
112A. Time money and commercial
paper rates We're unchanged.
| A sharp. break of AZ to 40 points net
in cotton prices, based improved
weather reports, featured the mixed
commodity markets. Wheat futures
closed practically unchanged after
fluctuating erratically throughout the
session. Raw sugar was unchanged
and coffee advanced 10 to- is points.
Another sharp rally in French francs,
which brought them close to the three
cent level, was the outstanding de-
,velopments in the firmer foreign ex-
change market. Most of the contin-
entail currencies advanced in sympathy

WHAT PURPOSES AccoMpLIsHEs

Miss Blitz, dean of women of the University
of Minnesota, said in recent address that in her
experience, the students who have a definite pur-
pose for which they are working, and who come to
a school in order to fit themselves for that par
ticular occupation, out better than those who
have no such definite purpose in view.
Yet at the school and college age, it is diff
cult for young people to know what they want to
go into. The majority do not feel conscious that
they have any special talent.
One reason why many young people do not
form any definite ambitions, is that their minds
concentrated sports, spastimes, and having
good time generally. Their ambition has had no
chance to form in their minds. They have not de-
voted enough thought to the problem of achieve
ment so that they formulate any ideas as to what
kind Of achievement seems most possible.
Summer vacations give students fine chance
to try out different occupations. Some think only
of the money they can earn at vacation employ
ments. If they need the money to help pay their
educational expenses they do well to earn it at any
honest work. But in so far as they can try out
something that really interests them, they are
helped in forming those definite purposes that the
above-named educational authority referred to.
The value of purpose is not wholly in the
studies that one takes bearing directly on the
cupation one desires to follow The knowledge
gained is only part of the preparation. But the
people who have definite purposes form the habit
Of more earnest work. and they are not satisfied
with mediocre achievement, 50 their power grows
every year.

CHARACTER EDUCATION

The Board of Education of Minneapolis is try
ing an experiment in character education It has
changed the old system by which pupils were
marked for their attainment in arithmetic, history,
spelling. geography, etc. The ratings are now
based principally on such qualities as industry,
honesty. judgment, punctuality, and department.
This new method responds to the feeling that the
schools must do more for moral training.
Some may object to such marking system,
on the theory that it tends to favor the quiet chill
dren of little initiative and individuality while
more brilliant and active children might not stand
well.
Systems of school grading ought to lay stress
on achievement. It is not enough that a pupil
should have dug into his books all day in a sleepy
way without much attainment. The results must
earnest effort
Yet this method of marking responds to the
growing sentiment that an education that merely
teaches facts and information is not getting high
results We must not merely give people knowledge,
but inspire them with good purposes and high prin-
cples.
The secret of character education is teach
ing children to admire what is fine and high minded
and to feel contempt for what is low and yellow.
The teacher who tells the children some story which
leads to admiration of useful achievement and
which suggests disapproval of mean action, may
complish more than the one who simply gives the
pupils lessons out of books. Character education
is mostly the developing of certain point of view
and the quiet boy who never makes any trouble in
school is sometimes getting wrong conception of
the world.

STANDING UP STRAIGHT

One feature being emphasized by classes for
physical training, is that Of posture Some Of the
women's clubs have had posture classes the past
winter. The physical instructors tell US that It
makes big difference to peoples physical develop
Hient whether they stand up straight Or not
Many men who walk along with their heads
bent over and their eyes fixed On the ground. are
almost pitiful sight. Their lungs must be 50
cfamped by this false position that they not
t4se anywhere near normal amount Of fresh air.
We hear from time to time Of fads among girls
aed women for slouchy positions. II people want
good health. they must hold themselves erect and
look the world in the eye.

THE TEACHERS REWARD

Many young people often find themselves try
inE TO make up their minds as to what line Of work
they should enter. 1t might be remarked to the
young women that they should not too hastily turn
down the profession Of school teaching
1t may take longer to prepare for teaching
than for business but the rewards are more salts
fketory In many ways The business Job sometimes
pays more but the average school teacher probably
gains more Of personal development.
The teacher forms associations among circles
ct highly cultivated and refined people. and should
be constantly growing mentally. It IS sometimes
remarked that good many teachers do not marry.
The reason Is not 50 much thst they cannot find
huzbands. as that they have become more dis
eliminating. and they win not take up with the
hrst thing that comes along wearing trousers.
6irs who desire personal development win not find
Il any better anywhere than in this noble pro-

Here everybody has been telling everybody else
what to do about the crime wave, and how to

seems to be that we need more and better iails.
The fact may be that we simply need more and

Prison records show that SO per cent Of con-
