Dav nv day our sense Of value changes. Day by
day we come to detest what we once admired ana 70
admire what we once detested. The fast moving
chmera we call life is SO ever changing in its ka-
lcidoscopic effects that become dazed. blinded
and we awake to find that the morals. the ideals
and the values Of yesterday no longer appli-
cable to the order and reluctantly adapt our
IDEAS morals and values to the changed conditions
Nothing could illustrate this clearly than
the comparison recently afforded when Rudolph
Valentino film actor, and President Emeritus Eliot,
CT Harvard university, both died within few hours
Of each other. Valentino moving picture

% years old, and man who had been in the public
eye all his life. Yet every newspaper in the coun-
try, almost without exception, devoted more space
and more prominent space to Valentines demise
than to Dr. Eliot's.
And not only in this country but abroad also.
English newspapers and French newspapers used
vast quantities of material Valentino, and in
many cases but three lines on DR.. Eliot.
But, you say, the fame of Dr. Eliot is lasting, it
will endure; that of Valentino ephemeral. But
you prove it Ten years from now will people
member Eliot more than Valentino?
And for material success, Valentino died pos
scssing estate in California cash and other pos
sessions valued at nearly million dollars. Could
DR.. Eliot claim the same?
There's no use fighting against it. Our values
are changing. We pay moving picture actors more
than we do educators because value them more
and more affected by the death Of the former
for the same reason. Perhaps it's false step on
the part of the human race, but it represents the
trend in complete change of values that must be
and in some manner combated.

GRAIN MARKET.
-
(By Dispatch A. P. Wire)

CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-Corn took the
lead in the grain markets today, both
as to activity and strength. Wheat re-
flected the upward swing of corn VAL
ues, which in turn were given stimulus
by excessive rain, persistent lack of
sunshine and by increasing danger
that a large part of the corn crop will
fail to mature ahead of frost. Corn
and wheat both closed firm, corn IL
cents to rs cents net higher; wheat
u cent to q cents up; oats at II to 3s
cent, gain and provisions varying from
5 cents decline to raise of 25 cents.
Corn trade expanded right from the
start and prices quickly began to
climb. Much of the buying came from
previous sellers. who were in position
to collect profit. Other buying was
accelerated as result of warnings
from field experts that there has been
unusual dearth of conditions requisite
to bring corn crop as whole to safety
this season before the advent of frost.
A big decrease of the visible supply
total tended further to lift the corn
market. The decrease amounted to- l.
129, 900 bushels for the week, as against
only 423,000 bushels decrease last week
and $4,000 bushels increase year ago.
Friends of higher prices for corn
pointed out that commercial demand
for corn appears to be picking up, that
country offerings of corn are relatively
small, and that ideal crop conditions
from now on seem to be widespread
essential Oats followed corn.
Wheat was easy, much of the time,
but later rallied owing to the notable
strength of corn. There was an evil
dent absence of selling pressure in the
wheat market throughout the day, de-
spite better harvest conditions in Can
ada, and Notwithstanding a large de-
crease of the United States wheat Wis
ible supply.
Provisions averaged higher by the
action of hog values and of grain.

STOCK PRICES
RALLY MONDAY;
MOTORS LEAD
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)


NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-With General
Motors resuming the leadership of the
market stock prices rallied briskly to-
day after another unsuccessful attempt
had been made to unsettle the general
list by hammering a few of the so
called pivotal industrials." Trading
was largely of professional charac-
ter, public buying apparently having
been discouraged by the recent sharp
decline in U. S. Steel, common, follow
ing soon after the raising of the New
York federal reserve re-discount rate.
Outside the stock market, chief spec
ulative interest centered in cotton,
which rallied SIS a bale on publication
of a government report showing both
the expected yield and ginning figures
below expectations, coincident with re-
ports of crop damage by tropical
storm in Texas. The rise in cotton
helped to create bullish enthusiasm for
stocks, as did reports of a strength
ening of scrap iron and steel prices
an da further drop in California crude
oil production.
Revival of activity in General Motors
was generally attributed to buying for
the account of William C. Durant, au-
tomobile manufacturer who was to
have sailed for Europe last Saturday,
but postponed his trip. The stock was
bid up points to 21O3s, closing within
fraction of the top, with buying un-
doubtedly stimulated by the prediction
of President Sloan that August sales
will set new high monthly record.
u. S. Steel, common, after a tempor-
ary sinking spell, during which it was
carried down to 1485s, rallied to 152M
for net gain of 1% on the day. To-
tai transactions in that issue ran close
to 100000 shares, or nearly one-sixth
of the entire volume of business. Gem
eral Asphalt continued its sensational
advance by moving up over points,
to new high record at 917s, while the
Despite public apathy in the market,
pool operations were conducted in a

cial dividend developments in the near

and Warner Picture A, all were elevat-

while substantial gains were recorded
by Allied Chemical, Butterick, Case
Threshing, International Combustion

Rectifiers and Battery EliminatOrs
Part w.

Most of the explanations of the ac-
ton of a Raytheon tube have been
filled with sIch confusing and unin-
telliKible terms as 'joniZation," uni
lateral conductivity of a 1ow-pressure
gas gap between electrodes of unequal
areas" the short path" principle and
the "bombardment of atoms" to say
nothing of "protons," negative and
positive charges" gamma rays" and
what not.
1t Is my purpose in this article to
explain in simple language the action
that takes place with relation to the
tiow of current without going into an
planation of the highly technical
phases OF the question that has to do
with the reasons why such action
takes place.
The action is very simple and is no
harder to understand than is the case
with the electrolytic rectifier. After all.
what most Of us want to know is what
takes place and the applica ton of the
device in circuit. and this can be
done with the Raytheon tube without
delving into deep scientific treaties.
II has been found that If two cleo
trodes. "A" and b of the same size
are placed in glass tube filed with
helium at low pressure and the two
electrodes are connected into high
potential circuit an action takes place
that permits current to flow across the
normally non-conducting gap. In the
standard Raytheon type tube the ap
plication of a potential of 80 to 40
volts to the electrodes is sufficient to
cause a flow of several hundred MILL
ampereS.
II the device shown in Fig. is con.
nected into an alternating current
circuit current win flow in both direc-
tons AS the direction of flow changes.
During one-half of the cycle when
"A" is positive and "B" is negative
current will flow in one direction, but
during the other half of the cycle,
when "A" is negative and b. posi-
tive. current will flow in the opposite
direction.
If, however, we change the relative
