Then, our clubs give us the oppor-
tunity for service. AS you travelled
the same paths, it was inevitable that
you should find occasion to help one
another and your neighbors along the
way; whether the neighbors were
those in your club circle, in your COM
munity, or in some far quarter 4 of
the globe. The opportunity 'f6r serv-
ice has been yours. Sk
You have had, too, through your
club, greater power to do that sserv-
ice greater power for living, for,
as we are told that a group of ten
women who stand together have the
strength of a hundred who stand
singly; in the same proportion club
of twenty-five, united, has { the
strength Of two hundred and fifty
standing each for herself. What a
force you may be!

your clubs have brought to you in the
past, and that in the years to come
they may be yours in even greater
measure. Cordially yours.

THREE MORTON BUSINESS
PLACES BROKEN INTO

Three Morton business places were
broken into recently, two the same
night, and four slot machines were
taken. The thieves again made the
slot machines an object of their work,
as several were stolen in previous
raids.
Kelly's pool hall, the Metropolitan
Cafe and the City Meat Market, the
three places entered by the night
providers, who are thought to be local.
After thief had broken the glass
in the front door of the pool hall and
was in the act of carrying slot ma
chine away, he was frightened by
George Ewert, who lives over the
Metropolitan Cafe nearby. The man
dropped the machine and escaped.
Three slot machines of SC, 10c and Csc
denominations were carried off, and
in the raid on the City Meat Market,
nothing was taken.
"From appearance" the Enterprise
states, "this all is the work of local
talen probably an individual or group
who have been preying on slot ma
chimes in Morton and making sue
lcessful hauls for some time.

a season the Indians truly love and
the activities of the church are fully
attended.

of Rev. George H. Ten Brock who

Good Thunder, an adopted son of
Chief Good Thunder, is at present
acting warden and caretaker of the

Children of the agency have every
opportunity for education that their
white neighbors have. A district

and the attendance varies between %
and 80 pupils. Upon reaching an
age allowing attendance at board
ing school usually between the fifth
and sixth grade) they transfer to the
Government Indian School at Pipe

education. Special work is accom-
plished there in the trades such as
woodwork, printing and other crafts.

To the Women S Clubs
of the Second District

AS the time draws near for the
closing of your years work, doubt
less you are looking back with pleas
ant memories, and out into the future
with glad anticipation. Possibly, as
you think back, you are taking stock
to see just what these years of club
life have meant to you-how far have
they enriched your living.
Just why do we, belong to clubs
anyway? We belong because we can
get something from them and we may
give something through them.
We join for the friendships they
bring us. There is a handclasp we club
members know which can not be ours,
as mere casual acquaintance. / am
hoping you found that in your club
life.
Again, we become members because
we went to learn more, to acquire
knowledge, perhaps even wisdom.

BANKERS STUDY
SECURITY Law

The District Of Columbia Bank
ers Association yesterday decided
to go on recN'd in favor OF
having a special study made OF
State laws regulating sale OF Sc
curitieS.
The meeting was the first under
the new administration, and Presl-
dent Edward j. McQuade presided.
The meeting was called in com.
pIiance with a resolution passed
at the recent annual convention
of the association at Hot Springs.
the resolution following Subm1S-
sion of a report by Chairman
Francis G. Addison, jr., OF the
law and legislation committee OF
the association, which has been
at work for more than a year
upon the subject of an adequate
law for the District Of Columbia
covering the question Of fraudu-
lent securities.
It is presumed that the result
of the study will be presented to
the subcommittee of the House
and Senate handling legislation
covering these matters, and that
appropriate legislation will result.
In view Of the general situation
in Washington regarding the sale
of securities, the present action
Of the association is regarded as
important.

DEVELOPMENTS
PREDICTED To
AID BULLS
Hoover Moratorium Cited as
Only Start Of Government
Boosts, by Market Service
By THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, Suly 3.-While
conservative quarters are admon-
ishing traders to use extreme eau
ton in forthcoming market oper-
ations in view Of the dismal earn
ings reports soon to come out, this
opinion is not generally shared by
some who have been able to gauge
the trend Of prices with better
than average success.
The latter contend that power.
full forces have been set in motion
to bring about a world recovery in
commerce and credit, of which the
Hoover plan for a moratorium on
German reparatiOnS and interna-
tiOnal debts is the inaugural step.
Developments Forecast
Developments expected to follow
the successful conSummation of
the moratorium plan, as outlined
by a prominent statistical house,
are as follows:
Large scale international credits
to Germany, South America and
the Orient.
A rise in silver.
A general rise in commodity
prices.
Improunding Of all government
owned wheat and cotton, to be
held for specified higher prices.
A freight rate increase.
A movement backed by the
governments to end prOfitlesS
merchandising, as a solution Of
the price cutting menace which
has been undermining corporate
stability.
Credit Expansion
Expansion of Federal reserve
credit, as an aid to commercial
borrowing on commitments for
raw materials.
Increased equities based on fur
ther price advances in the secur-
ity markets will furnish public
buying power and thus reduce un-
employment.
All of the aforementioned at
least partial possibilities have
bullish stock market significance,
which should prove offsets to any
adverse tidings in the way Of Sec
ond quarter earnings and further
dividend revisionS. ,a..

JUNE OUTPUT

Production Of Chevrolet cars
and trucks in June totaled
84,597 units against 78,472 units
in June, 1880. June brought the
output for the first six months
Of 1881 to 522,232 units.
Production during June COM
pares with 1882 cars and

the highest months output since
July, 1929.
The decline in production from
May to June this year however
was 5000 units less than during

indicating a seasonal decline
rather than an abrupt drop such
as was experienced last June.

bright side Of the home industrial

day and in spite of the falling
off in speculative interest, prices
of the leading shares moved up

There were exceptions to the
rule, and spectacular movements
in the favorites we're conspicuous
for their absence, but the general
trend was upward, with a few Of
the leaders closly paralleling the
best previous records of the week.
Moratorium Hope Aids
Paris dispatches indicated that
the French and American confer
enceS would probably iron out the
differences in viewpoint on the
subject of the one-year reparation
moratorium.
At the same time some improve
ment was noted in strategic sec
tionS Of American industry. While
some If the commodities lost
ground in the price scale, others
advanced in good style, cotton re-
covering a dollar a bale.
The $73,000,0O0 increase in
brokers' loans for the week, as
reported by the Reserve Board,
was taken as an indication that

AS the day wore on, the effects
of the double holiday were seen
in ' a gradual decline in the
volume of business.
