BONDS PROMISE BIGGEST
YIELD AT PRESENT PRICES
Special Dispatch 20 The Star.

Special Dispatch 20 The Star.
NEW YORK, September 4-In April
and May last the average price of o
typical group of bonds reached the high
est point in a decade. Foreign bonds
sold at their peak first and domestic
issues about a month afterward Since
that time both groups have come down
sharply. Much of the large decline is
in the domestic list, but the foreign
descriptions are lower also.
Now the only reason for this turn
about in bond prices has been the up
ward trend Of money rates Normally
the higher money goes the lower the
level for bond prices The explanation
Of the greater resistance foreign issues
have displayed is the higher yield they
afford Money as a factor in the bond
market is most influential in the higher
grades. II does not affect so much the
more speculative
The situation accrues to the benefit
Of investors who desire the largest
yield on their money at the present
time. Returns available in the stock
market are small In domestic bonds
they are higher than they were. but
not nearly as high as in foreign bonds
The point Is that there has been no
adverse development in foreign affairs
to account for the decline in the obli-
cations Of the governments concerned
In practically every case the foreign
dollar bond is just as sound an in
vestment today as it was six months ago
Money now is approximately as high
as 1t was in 1921 at times as high
as it was in 1920. Foreign governments
who borrowed in those days had to
pay excessive rates for accommodations.
For instance, In 1920, Switzerland sold
a dollar loan in this market win an
8 per cent coupon at par.
Nothing like that is to be had now
and the profits that purchasers in those
days have since enjoyed are not to be
duplicated but a reasonable capital
appreciation may be expected over a
period of years by those who avail them
selves Of the present favorable oppor-
tunity in the foreign bond market.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. September 4-The line
of least resistance in todays stock
market was still on the side OF advance,
but the pace was not SO rapid nor the
tone so confident as IT. had been last
week. Many stocks pushed ahead into
new high ground and the average was
higher. but the turnover was lower ana
more stock was for sale on the way up
than there had been.
The opening was decidedly strong and
it was not until after the initial transac-
tions had been recorded that any I'M
p0rtant profit-taking appeared. General
Motors started in with split opening
from 2O3 to 204 against the previous
close of 201tI 1t lost part Of this

hours ranged above the last sale
Saturday.
C0ppers Are Strong.
United States Steel opened at 155, up
a point, and held around or just under
this price. Both of the two leaders
seemed to be consolidating their posi-
tions after their recent rise. On the
other hand, copper stocks were strong
under the leadership of Kennecott, which
sold above 500 a share, and OF Calumet
g. Hecla. which made a new high Tor
the year.
The leader Of the chain store group
was KrOger Grocery which reached
record high since listing above ll9. Fox
Film A starred in the amusement group
also at a new top. Continental Can
made it's new high right at the start
and so did Allis Chalmers. Another
specially in favor was Electric Auto Lite.
Then buying made itself felt in the
fertilizer stocks, American Agricultural
Chemical and Virginia Carolina
Chemical.
Hupp was the leader of the motors.

Two Aspects of Indifference

always to have one mind about matters
small or large. Each member Influences
the others far more than Is appreciated
Sometimes the effort to sway others Is
intentional and again entirely mad
vertent. For instance. good life has q
strong influence on every person who
comes in contact with the personality
yet there is in it no deliberate effort
to influence others. The reverse Is also
true, for an evil mind soils others with
out direct intention.
If the members of a household would
but realize that their peace of mind
depends in large measure on their
maintaining this sort of indifference.
more would strive to cultivate 1t. The
reaction to the effort pays. Strange to
say. when one does try to gain such
indifference it gives power to see other
persons points of view It stimulates a
kindly tolerance.
The second sort of indifference is a
miserable quality. 1t makes for unhap-
piness for it is selfish A selfish per-
son is seldom happy but is always on
the lookout to see that no one gets the
better of her. She has chip on her
shoulder" caring for ones esteem so
long as her comfort is not infringed
upon. She walks through life uncon-
cerned whether or not she hurts others
feelings. until finally the actual power
to understand others Is killed. Then a
callous nature results. Any goodness
Of heart is covered with so hard a shell
of indifference to others that the
dwindling kernel of worth is unworthily
protected and hidden. A forbidding
nature results, one that repels by In
difference.
And so 1t will be seen that indiffer-
ence may be meritorious or despicable.
It can be help or hindrance to happy
home life. When person grasps the
fine side of the quality, it should never
be allowed to slip away. Her own hap
piness is at stake as we'll as the COM

Why Jimmy Wasn't Caught.

IN body and in brain and wit.
Jimmy Skunk.

When the man who had set the traps
for Jimmy Skunk went down to look
at them the next day he discovered at
once that one trap was sprung. The
two other traps we're just rs he had
left them. That's queer said the
man. Il don't see how that Skunk
could have sprung that trap without
being caught" He picked up the trap
and examined 1t carefully. He thought
he might find some black OF white
hairs in it. But not a single black or
white hair did he find in the trap.
That Skunk didn't spring that trap"
The man decided Something else
must have sprung It,"
He looked very carefully in the soft
earth for Jimmy Skunk's footprints.
There were none. When he had set
those traps he had sprinkled some fine
dust over them. 1t would have been
impossible for Jimmy to step in that
fine dust and not leave footprint
That Skunk Is still under the barn."
decided the man. I'll just leave these
traps here. I'll get him sooner or
later
So he reset the wicked steel trap that
had been sprung. sifted more dust over
1t and went on his way He was sure
he would have that Skunk
Now. Jimmy had been right near that
opening when the man visited the trap.
He had kept quiet. but he hadn't
missed anything that was going on. He
knew just what that man was doing.
He listened to the sound of the mans
footsteps dying away. Then he sighed.
ITS no use" said Jimmy to himself,
for me to think of getting out this
way. There isn't another opening
can get out. guess I've got to do some
work. I don't like digging. but II looks
to me as II I shall have to dig this
time. It's a good thing can dig. If I
couldn't dig, would be in q peck of
trouble
He went back to the other end of the
barn. He went along the edge until he
found place where the earth was
fairly soft. Then he began to dig. He
was going TO dig down under the foun-
dation. He didn't hurry about It. You
know. Jimmy seldom hurries. There
was nothing to hurry for. So he Just
took his time about it. He dug A while.
then he rested a while. Then he dug
while longer then he rested a while
It wasn't very much of job, after all
Sooner than he had dared hope would
be the case. he was under the under
pinning. Then he began to dig up.
Presently he ~oked his head right out
side. Jimmy drew long breath Then
he shook himself and combed the dirt
out Of his coat and made himself neat,
for Jimmy Skunk Is very neat person
What do you think Jimmy did then?
He deliberately walked around to the

What fs the Eject OF Delay in
Recording Ch6ttel Mortgage'
BY TNE COUNSELLOR.

Robert Scott borrowed two thousand
dollars from his brother and gave him
as security for the debt chattel
mortgage on store fixtures.
Subsequently Scott became insolvent
and a petition In receivership was filed
against him. Scotts brother filed his
mortgage claim. feeling assured that
he would be preferred as to the assets.
The receiver. however, on examining
the mortgage. ascertained that 1t had
been flied for record 80 days afr It
had been executed. Thereupon he re-
fused to recognize the mortgage as a
secured claim. asserting that. under the
statue in that jurisdiction, the mort
gage had to be filed in 20 days
otherwise it was void and the mortgage
could< be considered only as gen.
eral creditor.
The receivers action was upheld by
the court, who stated:
ITO constitute valid filing or record
of a chattel mortgage there must be a
compliance with the statutory require
ments In some jurisdictions 1t Is re-
ouired that chattel mortgage to be
valid must be recorded Immediately

Choosing Makeup.

How strange the crowds of women
shoppers on city streets would look If
all gave up the use of rouge and pow
der! Makeup is now so widely en-
ployed that 1t hes come to be accepted
without comment. Some girls and wom-
en- apply makeup artistically, others do
1t badly. but practically every one seems
to use some.
The purpose of rouge and powder is,
of course. to beautify, but sometimes
their use has an opposite effect. This
is especially true of girls in their teens
who use makeup in order to appear
more "grown-up." They wield the pow
der puff and rouge too enthusiastically
with the result that their complexicns
become coarse and blemishes develop.
