In the Sugar Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon)
NEW VOpR March 17-Tha Win

NEW YORK. March 17.-The violent
price changes which occurred today in. the
equalled In any session for long time.
A sharp drop at the opening with trans
a rally. which carried prices back to with:
in a point or. two of the average OF
Wednesdays close. The market indicated
dition had been built UP. In Cuba II was
reported today. sales were made on the
equivalent of 3 cents to 2 1915 cost and
freight. The market steadied as it struck
the lover level. What has happened this
week has emphasized the present unset
tied condition in the trade where supplies
are evidently excessive. But we look for
a withdrawal of offerings on any further
attempts to dspress the market and main
tain an optimistic view of The outlook.
We advise purchases on rseessions.

covering from its recent slump, a
better tone was seen in wheat and
cotton, both of which had been inn
proved in technical positions by re-
cent selling. The curb market also
made some progress with oils show
ing a better tone toward the close
after early pressure. incidentally
the oils are a problem just now in
all markets. Their position is not
of the best and further reductions in
crude are still in sight. On the other
hand, there is every prospect that
with spring demand strengthening,
a better status will soon be reached.
1t was this theory which checked
selling Wednesday on both the curb
and stock markets, though some OF
the oil issues were weak features on
the bond market.

Tightening Expected

Sterling furnished the feature In
the foreign exchange trading, rising
to, a new high record for the year.
Other European issues were mixed
in a small range. japanese yen shot
up to a new high level.
While Wednesdays money market
gave every evidence Of ease, it was
pointed out in Wall Street that a
tightening can be expected when
the huge amount of checks used in
payment of mid-month accounts is
cashed. This is expected to be only
temporary. Just nov prospects look
bright for a curtailment in the re-
discount rate. But Washington has
issued broad hints that the present
4 per cent figure can be expected to
prevail for some time. All Federal
centers have the power to change
their rates, but the change must be
sanctioned by the central organiza'
ton in Washington.

WHY WE DO WHAT WE Do
BY DR.. MEHRAN X. THOMSON.

Man is creature of habit. not of
reason. nor yet of instinct" says
John Dewey Of Columbia University.
That gives habit the foremost place
in the conduct of life. Human beings
are controlled by habit more than the
lower forms of. life. The animal is
born with certain native impulses
which are quite sufficient for his re.
stricted life. He does not need to learn
very much and. in most cases, nothing
at all. The relatively complicated life
of a common bee Is wholly a matter Of
instinct.
These instructive reactions are so
definite. complete, and final that the
creature regulates his whole life by
them. The same Is true Of other forms
of life. The bird builds her nest ex.
actly as all the birds of her species
have built them for countless gen.
erations and she does 1t correctly the
first time. She does not have to serve
an apprenticeship. She needs no in.
struction or experience.
In general the animal instincts are
more specific than those Of human
beings. We are born with certain in
stinctive tendencies, which are very
quickly modified by habit.
1t it were not for habit we could
never rise above the animal level.
Habits make us more efficient by re-
ducing to mechanical exactness the
many details Of everyday life. Take
the matter of dressing, which is quite
task for a child. But we adults
waste no time at it because all the
details have become so mechanical
that we do them without any con-
scious effort on our part. The same Is
tru of many skilled acts, such as play
ing the piano or running typewriter.
BY constant practice we develop a set
Of motor habits which become second
nature.
OF course we also have so.called bad
habits. They follow the same law Of
making deep pathways In the nervous

OUR CHILDREN By Angelo pa,ri

can he hold UP chubby. dimpled arms
and gurgle at you. Only a healthy.
happy child does that. An adopted
child needs that gift. Life is going to
be harder for him than for the child
OF the home. He needs all the power
he can muster
Only an intelligent child should
ever be adopted. The backward child
has too much Of handicap to be a
| success in stranger family. Examine
the child, have an expert psycholo.
gist, stranger to you and the child,
IL possible, examine him and report
upon his intelligence. More adoptions
have been failures because this pre-.
caution has not been observed than
you'd care to hear about. Little
children. even deficient ones, are so
appealing. Be careful that the smile
is not a vacant one and that the ges.
ture Is not an idle one. Sorrow lies
that way.
And once you have adopted the
child there is no turning back for you
IL you are honorable. Whatever YOU
drew in the lottery is yours while YOU
live and often it is going to live after
you. Think of that when you adopt
a child. The meanest person in this
world is the one who adopts a child
and then says to him. You're not my
child. Out you go. Back to the
asylum for you"
Do your thinking first.
