Being busy reading capitalist press reports
about those horrible Soviets, where loose
morals" are supposed to be rife, we overlooked
something, and are thankful to a Frisco reader
sending us a clipping from the magazine
thine" of February 16, this year.
In it, we find series of pertinent or, perhaps,
impertinent, letters to the magazine Time" be-
cause, in its issue of Jan &c. 1885, it had printed
the following:
Born to Plutarco E. Gales, ST.. and Sonora
Gales (Leonora Llorente), %, son. Senior
Gales married Senorita Llorente last August"
To the above item published, we repeat, on
JAN g. 1884, one inquirer merely enumerates
August, September, October November, Decenl-
ber January-????" Another asks: SIS this
mistake or are things different in Mexco?" To
another who wants to be sure Time" repeats
that the Gales were married August 2, 1880"
To another who asks if births occur "only five
months after" Time" replied:
"In the U. S., there is no record of a premature
child being born under six months and living.
A gent in Philadelphia, who says he can count
from August to January on five fingers, is left
unanswered on his question: What type of
storks are employed in Mexico?"
And to Senior Gales himself who protested
that Time" did not state the pure truth to
the effect that my boy was born prematurely,"
the magazine replies it merely stated facts, adj
ding that the report about the birth occurring
during an earthquake was inaccurate, and gives
the date exactly as 1925 am, Jan. u.s. 1884,
Perhaps Dwight Morrow before returning to
the U. S. to become U. S. Senator, arranged for

BISHOP MANNING
OPPOSES new CANON
Holds Proposal on Marriage and
Divorce us a Sign of the
Times"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. September 2-Bishop
William T. Manning, In a letter to two
church publications released yesterday
expressed strong opposition to the pro-
posed new canon on marriage and di-
vorce to be submitted to the general
convention of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in Denver this month.
1.-The proposed new canon on mar
riage and divorce Is sign CT the times
If the general convention were to adopt
such a canon as this. which rejects the
plain teaching of our Lord himself. the
Protestant Episcopal Church would be
confrc nted with the gravest crisis in its
history" wrote the bishop in part.
II do not for one moment believe that
such a proposal. or anything resembling
it. will be adopted by the general ccn-
vention. The amazing and shocking
thing Is that such a canon can be pro-
posed by those who should be the up
holders of Christian faith and morals"
1t was announced several months ago
that the bishop would be unable to at
tend the convention.

Europe by the Arabs.

estimated around SO cents a
bushel, and an average OF only
10000 900 bushels a day were
handled, or a representative cash
value of $3,216,OOO.
Trading Takes Squirt
In October, with two additional
trading days, 26 in all, and with
rising prices, despite the 300 year
low on October 5, the May op,
ton struck a high of 662. The
approximate bushels traded aver
aged around 100000 bushels
each day. more than double the
September action, and at an esti.
mate average price per bushel Sd
cents, giving a representative
cash value of $43, ,632, 600, 900.
The first four trading days in
November evidenced q further
squirt in dollar and bushel volume
The first day only 48,000,00O
bushels of wheat were traded,
then a sudden jump to 64,000,00O
bushels was recorded, and on the
third 100000 was struck. A
