In the current issue of Progressive

"The Truth About Our Reptiles, !"
which explodes many popular beliefs
relative to common Arizona reptiles,
including the rattlesnake, Gila mon
sters and scorpions. The author of
the article is Ward Shelby, managing
editor of the magazine, and an un-
usual number of cuts are placed with
the story.
Among other things, the story, ac-
companied by pictorial proof, dis
proves the old idea that a rattler viii
not cross a horse-hair rope.
Several pictures are used showing
the snakes crawling into and out of a
braided loop. Other parts of the ar
ticle show little girls method Of
handling diamond backs, also accom-
panied by photographs.

department of the university, is the

NEW YORK, February i0.-With
the excitement which has accompanied
speculation in both the stock and
curb markets quieted down consider
ably today trading was carried on at
a more moderate pace. Price move
ments were confined to narrow limits
and 1t was difficult to detect a definite
tendency one way or the other. One
incident to which the speculative ele-
ment appeared to be giving it's con
sideration was the fact that the oil
shares during the past week have
shown their ability to absorb offer
ings which have come upon the mar
ket from time to time. 1t was point
ed out that in view of earnings the
oils were in the best position to re-
spcnd to any increase in the demand.
This probably accounted for the i'm.
provement which occurred in such
stocks as International Petroleum, I'm
perial Oil of Canada, Standard Of
Indiana and Ohio Oil. in view of the
fact that there was nothing in the
situation of the oil industry to &C.
count for renewal of operations on
the buying side
