BY KENNETH $. VAN sTRUM.

NEW YORK, January 11.-Probably
the most difficult phase of stock trading
is to know when to sell. Almost every
owner of share of stock is sooner or
later faced with this problem, although
some believe that one should never sell
good stocks It often becomes advisable,
however, to sell q stock that seems
overvalued and to replace it with issues
which seem lower in price.
Volume Of Trading.
The amount of trading in a stock
helps to determine the high points. BY
watching the price trend Of stock IN
relation to the volume of trading much
can be told about its technical posi-
ton. AS long as stock continues to
advance and the number of shares
traded in each week does not increase
above the volumes of preceding weeks,
it is usually safe to hold. Even though
the volume of trading increases 1t is
also usually safe providing the price
of the stock continues to rise With the
volume.
If, however, the volume of trading in
creases sharply while the price advances
very slowly critical point is usually
indicated, for this condition indicates
that selling is becoming more powerful.
The natural tendency is for a person
to hold on to stock even more tightly
when trading increases, because the
owner thinks he has something that
every one wants. But If the price does
not rise when the volurle grows large
it often indicates that large holders
have decided the price has gone hlgh
enough and are liquidating their shares,
Tt is. of course. impossible to determine
the exact top, but study OF the Volurls
of trading in relation to price trend OF
a stock is always help in determining
an advantageous selling point.
Two Examples.
AS an example of rising volumes as an
aid in determining resistance points It
is interesting to observe that American
Car Ss Foundry has fluctuated between
sc and 1O9 for two years and during th1S
period has always met heavy selling be-
tween 100 and 100. Last week 1t APP
1867 and the volume rose
sharply. In another instance American
Locomotive, which has fluctuated within
limits of 90 and lis for two years, APP
preached IFS and the volume increased
here also. Sharp reactions occurred III
both stocks.
The volume of trading is also used 10
determine when the technical poSitlon
of stock is good. For instance MACK

My son, take heed unto thy ways that thou dost not throw shoe in attempting to leap hurdles that are too high for thee.

eral states to tighten the laws curbing the use of brutal meth ods by police to extort con fessions from prisoners.
 Police departments universal ly deny using such methods. but all newspaper men who have been about a bit have seen too much of it to doubt that the practice is common, both in city and village.
 Of course, if you believe that a prisoner is beyond the pale and ought not to be accorded decent or humane treatment, he law won't appeal to you. It probably will not appeal to officers, more interested in getting a confession than in seeing justice done. But other wise, such laws seem pretty we'll grounded in the principles of humanity and Christianity.
 There is, to put it baldly, no excuse for third degree meth eds anywhere. If police cannot build up strong enough case against a man without beating aim into semi-consciousness hey have no business in their jobs.

STIMULANT TO PROGRESS.

In legal parlance there is a term "caveat emptor" which means "let the buyer beware. " And that does not single out any class of buyers.
 There are people in Hyder who buy everything at home and from hometown mer- chants. And then again there are people in this community who buy very little at home, thoughtlessly spending their money out of town where it is lost to the community. Those who buy at home benefit the community by keeping their money at home and reap the additional rewards of buying from business enterprises that depend, for their very exist ence, upon their reputation for fair dealing. The hometown merchant gives his patrons and his community the fruits of hii industry and his community's patronage.
 The same principle, which urges people to patronize the local merchant who has his money invested where it serves them most should urge the merchant to advertise in the newspapers of his community. This paper boosts Hyder and its people, institutions and busi- ness. It is a fixture, with a heavy investment and depend ent for it's existence as a boost CT upon the patronage of the community.
 MercnanCS advertise ln news papers to increase their busi- ness. Consumers read news paper advertisements that they may buy with the least ex- pense of time and effort and most advantageously both in respect to price and quality. Both advertiser and buyer for get that this advertising makes possible the newspaper that brings them the news of the day and provides one of the chief stimulants to community growth and betterment.

 The first six-weeks' period of the present school year ended last week. Examinations were held on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and report cards were passed out on Tuesday of this week.
 The first six-weeks' typing test was given on last Friday. The re- suits were much better than those of previous tests. The pupils were quite eager to put their grades on their charts. After each test the number of mistakes made. and words per minute which each pupil makes, are placed on a chart by means of graphs. It is interesting to note how the graphs go up or down.
 The Junior English Literature class has started work on book re- ports. The pupils have their choice of one book out of required list.

PR0SPECTOR DISCOVERS LARGE COPPER LEDGE
 B1 QUEER AUClUENl

Charles Chic Nelson, whose copper strike on the Chittistone, about 50 miles rom AcCarrny, nas fired the hopes ot nundreus oL resl- dents n tnls seeuon oI AlasAa, has arrIyed ln Gordoya, says the Cor uoYa Times.
 Al the showings so far, have looked eArremeIy goou, he de- clared, and DeI1eYe Inere Is cop per ore there III large quanJlLIes. AL least Cnere IS reason TOT opJl- mism put II wIIl De necessary to do a great deaI oL work before any thlng definite Is known. IL the signs are right, there may be a mIne there, possibly a Dlg mine" '"
 The story or how Nelson made the strike wnlcn some declare IS the biggest strIKe made h more than ten years, reads almost ike fiction, ana certainly IS more sup SIduIldA LAdA any AASNAoA S'SA written.
 Nelson has been in Alaska since 1901. He prospected in the Fair banks country and through the ln- terior, finally dropping down to Slate creek and the Valdez coun- try. About 1912 he went into the Mccarthy section and has been there OH and on ever since.
 He was returning to his camp a year ago last July and feeling somewhat discouraged, due to a heavy rainfall which soaked him through and washed out the trails, making it impossible tor him to continue work.
 Following the beaten path over the mountain top Nelson used his pick to aid him in breaking through the trail. His pick handle was wet and slipped from his grasp falling into the creek and becoming lost. There was nothing for Nel- son to do but find another way over the cliff and so he turned up- stream a few hundred yards and started through the brush. The first thing he saw while breaking through was piece Of carbon about the size of the end of his finger. He examined it through a glass, and figured where it might come from, continued his search and then found a piece of high grade ore.
 q didn't notice the rain any more," Nelson declared, "but ran over the side of the cliff and down into the streams. I found one piece of ore uncovered in three small streams and never did find any more. It looked almost as though those little pieces of ore had been put there to show someone the way, but anyway, I scraped around and located my ground and then went back to Mccarthy for sup plies"
 What happened from then on is familiar to almost everyone. Engi- neers and surveyors went in and looked the ground over, all declar- ing that it was more promising than any ground found in a long while.
 The Kennecott Company has un- dertaken the development of the Nelson property.
