YOUNG PEOPLE ARE
RIVERS OF HOMES

The home building move
mcnt has gained such
momentum that soon most
of the people will be living
in their own homes. Now
only 40 or As per cent Of
the American people live in
homes which they have
bought or for which they
are paying.
In the face Of all the talk
about the distribution Of
the American home, more
homes are being built in
this country than ever be-
fore.
A striking feature of this
building era is the number
Of homes being purchaseu
by young married people
who are enabled to buy
through the easy terms
offered by building and
loan associations and real
estate firms.
Another remarkapie
thing about the new bulid-
ing era is the type OF homes
that are being built. In COM
munities like this, homes OF
the highest type are being
built at sprices that are
astonishingly low. The old
time house in which the
builder had a certain
amount Of money to use up,
and an indefinite, vague
idea Of what the house
might look like when

NEW TYPES or EASTER
FLOWERS:

(From the Philadelphia Inquirer)
Dealers report that the tradition
al preference for white flowers at
Easter is yielding to a growing
popularity for more vivid hues.
Flaming youth is blamed for the
revolt. Possibly that is only a SUI
perfcial cause. After all, it would
not be surprising if human nature
today, more than even before, in
its cropping for aesthetic ideals
should be influenced by the mar
velous development in color tech
nique which modern ingenuity has
made possible. The textile arts
have created a panorama of iri-
descence pleasing and inspiring to
the eye. Those who attended the
recent Philadelphia flower show
must have been impressed with the
skill of hortfculturists IN finding
even nature itself plastic to the
new scheme Of harmonies.
Perhaps these views sacrifice
SOME Of the symbolism that long
custom has associated with the ap-
propriatness Of pure white flowers
for Easter. But were symbolism
alone the consideration the passion
flower might claim a place. Its
crown of thorns, leaves, starnens
and divided pistil are emblematic
of the CrucifMon and its ten petals
represent the disciples without Pc
ter and Judas. The religious ale
CORY was first discovered by Span
ish settlers in America.
But one need not press any of
these considerations too far. The
Bermuda lily bursting into mean
descent beauty from an unprepos-
sessing bulb is typical. though not
the sole type. of life reviving in the
spring Any other blossom that
awakens an individual to the spir-
itual side Of life is appropriate to
the meaning of the season.

ings, before even the found
ations are laid. In the old
time house, the owner never
really knew what it was
going to look like until the
last wooden single had
been nailed in place.
Nowadays the terms are
SO favorable that it is only
failure to investigate that
keeps many people from
taking advantage Of them.
For the young fellow just
starting out there is no
better way Of saving money
than the acquiring of an
obligation which demands
the payment of a certain
sum of money each month.
The purchase of a home
does just this. Although
wages and salaries vary in
different portions of the
country every man who is
making enough ON which to
get married also is making
enough with which to buy
home.

WHEAT ADVANCES
IN BRIEF SESSION
Market Shows Surprising
Strength After ColorIess
Start-Corn Gains.
BY GEORGE C. SCHNACKEL.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, October 29.-Wheat
showed surprising strength today
after colorless early trade. Aggressive
buying by local bulls, followed later
by commission house buying based on
reported light frosts in the Argentine,
disclosed a badly oversold market con-
dition. Short covering accelerated the
advance to levels where stop loss
orders to buy were uncovered. North
west selling was about the only pres
sure aside from realizing sales on the
bulge. The close was 2 to 21s
higher. December, 1.25 Ra1.26; March,
1.29ka1.2934; May. 1.31 3sa1.31&.
Wheat prices scored good gains this
week largely because of the broader
export demand which offset the effect
of hedging sales. Corn met short
covering and also rallied.
European Crop Outlook.
Broomhall in his daily summary
stated that the European wheat crop
was not much larger than last year.
This excited some bullish comment
early, but reports Of light frost in
the Argentine aroused bullish feeling
to point where buying was indulged
to take the frost report seriously be-
cause the Buenos Aires market at the
close was unchanged. but the local
market was in an oversold condition
and shorts were not in position to
stop and think. Canadian weather
was cloudy with light showers in parts
and the forecast was for unsettled
weather over the week end Mime
apolis stocks increased 125, 900 bushels
for one day. Liverpool was weak,
closing 7s to 13s lower; because of
increased pressure of Canadian wheat
and it's better grading.
Corn also had q better tone and q
feature was the improved commission
house buying of March, which was
noted shortly after the opening. This
caused pit shorts to cover and little
pressure was encountered until good
gains had been established. The
close was "a to i cent higher and
