NEW YORK. ccaail. 2.-Can men and women of vastly different ages find happiness in the short span of lffe that their union encom- passes?
 Time and time again this ques- tion is debated and sthe answer is invariably in the negative. And then one reads or hears about such a marriage that has turned out to be extremely successful and all theories and ideas on the subject have to be readjusted
 The belief humans have in their own powers is amazing. Women of advanced years imagine that their beauty is still Compelling enough to hold young man to their side. And elderly men believe that they are attractive enough to make a young woman, sometimes nor e than generation their junior, happy and satisfied with her mar ital bargain. Yes, this is. a strange world and the strange un.ons that constantly occur are among the strangest of human phenomena
 One Romance
 Henri Marchand, the famous art ist, sat in court in Buffalo and listened to the testimony that de- scribed his seduction of the Indian girl who later murdered Marchand's wife. He didn't cut very gallant figure and certainly looked his 53 years. And women spectators in the Buffalo court house were united in their sympathy for the bewilderad little Indian in their condemnation of Marchand. Yet an eighteen-year old girl, Lillian Cooper, has had sufficient faith in Marchand to marry him. The two are still hon eymooning in upstate New York. Perhaps the young bride fell in love with his distinguished appear ancee or his mind. AS yet, she has proffered no explanation.

 According to every theory anc loud prophecy, the union should have terminated long ago. But we learn that the strangely assort- ed couple have a baby son which proves exactly nothing or great deal.
 Despite the difference in years, friends are predicting success for the union Of New Jerseys Gov ernor, Morgan F. Larson, who is 48, with Miss Ada Schmidt, who is exactly 25 years of age. The strong community of interest between the pretty bride and the man who has known her ever since she was a little motherless immigrant girl be- friended by his mother should do much to make the union a happy one Ada became his mothers sec- retary after mother and son had financed the girls education. After the death of Larson's wife some years ago, the friendship between the two became warmer and has had a story-book conclusion. And everyone hopes that New Jerseys popular Governor and his charming young bride, will live happily ever after" f

prices led to an assumption in many quarters that the so-called common stock era was at an end, statistics do not as yet support such a conclusion.
 Stock held in speculative broker age accounts has been drasticaliy reduced in volume, but at the same time, lists of stockholders in indi- vidual corporations have increased to huge totals.
 Unwilling Investors
 IL is probable that many spec ulatcrs have become investors against their wishes, that is, that they have decided to pay for their stock in full and take it out of their brokers hands with the de- termined intention of keeping it until it commands a price some where near that paid for it, no matter how long it may take.
 Brokers state. nevertheless, that a large section of the public has profited from the experiences of the past. year and half, and now is anxious to buy stocks at the bot tom rather than the top
 The. result has been small but steady stream Of odd lot purchases during periods of extreme pressure against prices.
 Still Double Values of '25
 A glance at the total quoted value of stocks listed on the New York exchange shows that much remains of the great bull market which started in 1924.
 The latest figure for December l. l930. shows a total quoted value of roughly O0,0o0,0O0. While this shows shrinkage of some 40 per cent from the peak reached in autumn of 1929, it is still about double the quoted value of all list cd shares at the beginning oi 1925.
 In further efforts to gain thc wider distribution of their shares mere of the large corporations spllt up their stocks, and these splitups together with the sharp shrinkagS of values. reduced the average prict per share of stock listed on th' New York Exchange to less thar $40, the lowest level in years.
