Professional Operators Become

New York, July 14 P-Profes- sional operators appeared to be toy ing more seriously with the idea of ! anticipating the expected autumn upturn in business by taking a bull 1 position in stocks today, giving the new week in the market cheerfu! aspect, in sharp contrast to the blue Monday of a week ago
 Efforts to bid up prices were | hampered by profit taking by eau tious traders who bought around the bottom Of the recent decline. but selling was absorbed in good style, and the list as a whole made fair progress. The business and trade reports of the weekend pro- vided few if any definite clues to the business trend but last weeks rally, resulting from patently oyersold position, apparently pro- Vided adequate encouragement.
 Commission house advices were more bullish than for many weeks, but market letter writers were in cllned 10 cover their tracks with

Whether they would be able to attract any public | following after the sad results of ! previous efforts to discount business recovery was regarded with consid- | erable uncertainty. One large sta- tistical service advised customers | that while further drastic declines now seem unlikely. the situation did not justify reaching for stocks on ad- yances.
 Traders are still inclined to look for guidance to the commodity mar kets, and renewed bullishness seems to be predicted on the theory that commodities are at least scra ping | bottom.

Veteran School Teacher Retires
 After Service of 37 Years Here

Miss Elizabeth M. Welles of 126 Lincoln street, one of the best known Kindergarten teachers in New Britain, has asked for, and been granted, a permanent vacation. and has retired from perhaps one of the longest periods of teaching of any teacher in the city, matter of 37 years. She was granted retire. ment pension by the State Teachers Retirement board Saturday.

 For six years. from 1903 to 1909, Miss Welles was at the Monroe school, and then, from 1909 until 1916 she taught in the Monroe and Northend schools. One year in full time at the Northern school was fol- lowed by one year in the Smalley and Lincoln schools. and then from 1918 until 1928, she was at the Northend school.
 In 1923 Miss Welles went to the Rockwell school, ana then from 1924 until last month she taught in the Lincoln school.
 One of the interesting things Of note in Miss Welles' record is that the had no year out for illness or travel, She stayed true 10 her early ambtion-to be a good Kindergarten teacher, and she realized her ambl- ton for hundreds of children who were taught by her are now num- bered among some Of the leading business men and women in New Britain.

A plan whereby individual
realtors can be given an adver+iS-
ing service through the National
Association of Real Estate Boards
was approved at the Toronto con-
vention of that organization BY
the associations board of dirse-
tors, and will be put in operation
if and when 100 constituent
boards of the association indicate
their desire to use the proposed
service. Z
At the Toronto meeting, 50
boards at once pledged themselves
to the use of such a bureau. The
plan was developed in response to
requests of the associations
boards everywhere for professional
help in real estate advertising ana
the program outlined for tire
service is viewed as one Of The
largest undertakings which the
association has ever proposed fcr
immediate service to the iudi.

Block Letter Signs Urged
For Aviation Guidance

Roadside sign posts direct only
q part Of the inland travel to-
day. Large signs on roofs tell air
travellers the name Of the town
below them, pointOout the nearest
airports and give the directions of
the compass. At night the signs
are Illuminated and, like light
houses to guide steamships, can
be seen by pilots miles away.
With the phenominal growth of
aviation in the last three years
since Colonel Lindbergh's flight
tc Paris, the need for these signs
Is apparent. The number of
planes in use has multiplied many
times. A network Of air-lines In
terlaces the country. Hangers,
airports, airplane factories have
sprung up on all sides. Airplane
show rooms. aviation schools and
and aviation country clubs are
not uncommon sights.
Prominent Situation
The roof for the air sign is us
ually chosen for its prominent
situation.
Buildings near railroad stations
have been found desirable for the
reason that pilots, especially when
lost and seeking for bearing, fol
low railroad lines.
A roof covered with smoke from
train yards or factories, however,
Is not preferred since the smoke
makes the sign more difficult to
read.
II there are two or more rail
road lines entering a town it is
best to have signs near each. In
any case. the value Of the work
Is increased if more than one
building is chosen.
The roof selected is preferably
Of tile, shingle, metal or slate
with the sign painted directly on
the roof material. Roofs of gravel
top and of asphalt have been
used advantageously by con.

ARCHITECTS To
KEEP RECORDS

Plans for the creation Of Pic
toral Archives at the Library of
Congress to aid in the preserva-
tion of a national record Of early
American architecture are rapidly
being developed, according to the
American Institute of Architects.
The institute is seeking co-opera-
ton in building up the collection
and the report stated that more
than 5000 negatives have already
been received or promised.
A grant from the Carnegie Cor
poration has enabled the prints
received to be catalogued and an
extensive booklet is being pre-
pared Of illustrative material
which has appeared in books and
magazines.
The report, prepared for the
institute by Leicester B. Holland,
chief of the division of fine arts
Of the Library of Congress, said
no effort has been made to record
on a national scale the material
aspect of our past and that the
creation of this new division will
create a repository where photo
graphic records from the whole
United States may be assembled.
The Library of Congress aps
parently is the only national in.
stitution which can logically un-
dertake this work, and a sub
division of fine arts is being
established to serve as national
Pictorial Archives of Early Ameri-
can Architecture.
In all probability the archives
will consist Of three parts; a col
lection Of negatives, all-embrac-
ing as possible: complete folio
files of prints from these mega
tiveS, for consultation; and very
full indices. topographics, chrono-
logic and by subject, so that de-
sired matter may be readily To-
Gated.
Negatives of all sizes and from
all sections of the country will
be welcome. All negatives will
be carefully indexed, with the
