IN MEMoRIAM

In loving remembrance of our dear mother,
Matilda J. Dickerson who departed this life at
the home of her daughter. Mrs. William T.
David at Smyrna. September 10, 1926. aged Sc
years
Oil How sad was that midnight hour
When stood beside her bed
Until death stole in unbidden.
And we knew her soul had fled.
Yes. gone to live with Jesus
In that beautiful mansion above.
By and by we'll meet you mother,
There to dwell in endless love-
Rest on dear mother, thy labors DER.
Thy willing hands will toll no more.
In patience you your suffering bore.
Until God called you home to suffer no more
What happy days once enjoyed:
How sweet her memory still.
But she has left aching void
This world can never fill.
Yet again we hope to meet thee.
When the day of life is fled.
And in heaven with joy to greet thee,
Where no farewell tears are she'd,
Mother has gone. but not forgotten
Nor ever will she be.
AS long as life and memory last
Well always remember thee.
adv. From Her Children.

SCHOOL LIGHT
IS STUDIED

NEW YORK, May Natural
light in school buildings TO save the
eyes OF children is urged in a re-
port based upon Federal findings
and made public here by the Eye
Sight Conservation Council of
America.
The council warns Of the dangers
of nearsfghtedness and other handi-
caps to child development. Near
sighted children are declared to be
increasing.
Even though the provisions for
adequate dayiighting should entail
a cost I'm excess of artificial light
ing" says the report, the adoption.
OF artificial light as the sole source
OF illumination for schools, as has
been advocated by some. and the
failure to provide adequate natural
illumination would probably be q
false economy.
Studies by the United States
Public Health Service of the eve
sight OF SPAS school children from
to Is years of age in four States
showed that 81 per cent of them
had moderately defective vision and
10 per cent of them had vision five
tenths or less in one or both eyes. :"
The study. directed by DIR. Italia
ferro Clark, United States health
officer formerly in charge of field
Investigations in child hygiene as
sisted by Arthur F. Beal, Federal
physicist, declared that, defective
illumination of classrooms has an
adverse influece on the activity of
the intellectual processes of chill
dren.

Special D.>pd,,n - he Siaf.
NEW YORK, September 27.-For
the last four years Monday on the
Stock Exchange has commonly been
a day Of declining prices. There is
no reason Tor this except that opera
tions for the rise are apt to reach
their peak at the week end and where
the situation is dominated by profess
Sional traders, prutt taking at the
start of the new week is natural
sequel. There were TO special devel
opments over Sunday. but the Mon
day progra III was followed out when
the greater part of the list sasged
away.
There were numerous exceptions.
General Motors as it got TO 16l was
registering new high prices under its
new form Of capital. The equipment
shares ot.t ,.....,ss.ly -tTUIis, W4,h
Baldwin Locomotive. American Loco
motive dilI .4liiti.Cdn Didhe shoe the
features. Various speciaities were bid
up-TeXas Gulf sulphur, which made
a new high for the present move:
Eureka Vacuum Cleaner. Postum
Cereal, Commercial SoiN ents B. Safety
Gable. which was up over point;
American Ice, New York Gamers,
National Biscuit. Butterick, California
Packing and Allied Chemical which
rose more than point.
L. S. Steel was under some pres
sure. the market taking more notice
of the fact that steel prices are lower
and that they do not seem to be able
to get any better despite the So per
cent production capacity of the steel
mills.
American Smelling, which had gone
down last week nearly nIne points,
had further break, rejecting the
decline in silver prices The selling Of
the smelling shares did not affect the
coppers. which ordinarily moved SYM
pathetically. Anaconda was somewhat
higher Tha other members of the
group were inactive.
Atchison responded with a rise of
more than point to the highly
favorable August report showing an
increase of S2.25n.0 900 net over the
month wear ago. Rock Island
gained point AS 4 result of the in
crease OF 81 500 900 in its August net
The advance in Colorado and South
ern kent on. The stock was up over
2 points on top of last weeks rise
of over points. The Street was talk
ing about the possibility Of a good
sized dividend in connection with
this movement.
Sugar stocks We're strong again.
The belief was that the sugar trade
had seen its worst and was on the
mend. The sugar stocks, with most
of the outside interests eliminated
and heavily uversold. were in a posi-
tion to react TO any suggestion of
change ior the better. Cuba Cane
preferred and Great Western Sugar
were the strongest members of the
group.
