Business and Financial Conditions
in the United States

Although further evidence of busi-
ness revival has appeared in the last
few weeks, it is hardly sufficient to
indicate. whether the increase in ac-
tivity has been more or less pro-
ncunced than is usual at this time of
year, states the current issue of the
Guaranty Survey, published by the
Guaranty Trust Company Of New
York.
In some respects the trend during
the last fortnight has been rather
disappointing, the Survey continues.
The iron and steel industry, for ex-
ample, after reporting for August
the first increase in activity in, five
months, has recently experienced a
mild setback both in demand and in
operating schedules, together with a
measure of price weakness. This
month the most definite progress has
been reported by wholesale dealers,
who have been less affected than re-
tail concerns by the unseasonably
warm weather that has prevailed
over wide areas.

'THE LOST CHORD

In the stiffness of the night and in
the presence of deaths bright an
gel' was born one of the most pop
ular songs of the last century-"The
Lost Chord" 1t was popular in the
sense that it reached the heart of a
nation. No ballad can accomplish
this unless it can feel the throbbing
pulse of humanity. Written in En-
gland by a great composer it prov
ed that songs of sentiment and devo-
1tion find ready acceptance in that
country as elsewhere.
'The Last Chord" was composed
under the most narrowing circum-
stances by Sir Arthur Sillivan, the
man whose collaboration gave the
world the unexcelled Gilbert and Sui
livan operettas, Oratorios, cantatas,
hymns, ballads and carols. The story
is that a few months after Sullivan
accepted the post of principal of a
music school he received news Of the
serious illness that had befallen his
only brother. For three weeks Sui
hvan kept a solemn vigil as he sat up
with his brother night and day. One
evening while the end was rapidly ap-
preaching, the sufferer had sunk into
a peaceful sleep. His devoted at
tendant, sitting at his bedside, -ehanc-
ed to run over some verses by Ade-
laide Ann Proctor, poetess, as a slight
relief from the tenseness Of his pres
ent circumstances. He read the poem
over and over again and found the
verses appealing to his sensitive ma
ture.. A sheet of foolscap paper close
at hand, he began composing. He
really knew not what he was writing,
but he "struck one chord of music"
and the notes, forming slowly in his
