NEW YORK, July 16-The short
stock market session today left the
list just about where it was at the
close Friday. Prices turned irreg-
ular after early firmness. Gains anc
losses about balanced.
According to preliminary calcula-
tions, the Dow, Jones 81 Co. indus
trial average stood at 1929, Off IL

1888, up OF point

pared with 235, 1000 shares last Sat-
urday.
Aggregate market value of ten
leading stocks was 1899, 999 $40
against S3,962 ,69O,77 Friday, a de-
cline of S22,691 POP
Advancing tendencies under the
leadership of the oil and railroad
shares were interrupted by the
weekly car loading report and the
department of commerce June for
eign trade report, both considered
adverse.
Exports Exceed Imports
The car loading report was fol-
the week ended July 8, which in
cluded the independence day holi-
day, and therefore it's decrease was
not a true indicator. In the same
week Canadian car loadings rose
2,781 cars to 39,053 cars
Exports of merchandise in june
amounted to $115,OO0,OOO, and i'm
ports $121 100000.
The extent of Americas gold loss
in the first six months was revealed
in the department of commerce re-
port. Exports of the metal in thai
period were $767 $4,000 and import;
only $146,175,000. A year ago
America exported $780, 900 and i'm
ported $239, 941 900 in gold.
Railroad shares were strong early
in the session and many of them
closed with gains despite the car
loadings figures. The weeks total
loadings Just reported was expected
to mark the low point for the sea-

anticipated from now on. Atchison

In the bond market, domestic
corporations were strong. while
United States issues eased off.

Overnight market news included
a decline in gold earmarked for

The French franc today made a
new low for the year at 3.913s cents

Double Relief
Park Suggestion Worthy

ton that part of the $35OoOo relief fund being dis
pensed by the District be utilized wages pay for work
in the parks of the city,
program tentatively adopted for operation of the fund
provides among other things, for work relief,
certainly plenty Of work which should be done in
the parks.
Officials of the office of public buildings and parks estimate
that $4,000 could expended in going the park
recently occupied by the bonus marchers.
By using the money pay workers in the parks the relief
fund would be made to two purposes.
It would be providing relief to the needy
time be serving of the people of the city through park
Identification.
District projects should of receive first consdera
tion in the work program, but there probably enough

Many those who forced by circumstances apply
the relief would much rather the money they need than
have it given them charity.
They should be allowed to it in this way.

painful, personal experience.
Grief is one of the great mile
stones in the progress of your
life. Grief is an initiation into
the mysteries of life. Grief is
an opportunity for your spirit
to be born again-taller, and
more splendid.
Happy lives are little lives.
They do not see beyond their
rose.wreathed walls. They know
nothing of the deep, dark val
leys, and the shining peaks,
and the vast, crowded high
ways that lie beyond those
walls. They do not know the
trails that other men must fol
low. the burdens they must
bear.
HAPPY LIVES DO NOT
KNOW THEIR OWN WEAK
NESS, OR THEIR OWN
STRENGTH. THEIR BOASTS
AND THEIR LAMENTATIONS
ARE EQUALLY SHALLOW,
FOR THEY DO NOT REALIZE
WHAT LIFE CAN DO TO THE
SOUL.
So happy lives are walled
lives, ignorant lives. But those
whose hearts are broken have
been given a chance to find
freedom and wisdom.
The Open Door
Grief is an. open door into the
fullness of life, and into every
other heart that has suffered.
Eyes that have wept know
what lies behind all other eyes;
and no heart is shut against
them, if they will enter lovingly.
GRIEF IS THE GREATEST
OF ALL HUMAN BONDS.

His Opportunity
Came

He was an active worker
in politics all his life. His
brother at one time was in
the office Of the United
States marshal in Indian
apolis. Jerry himself was a
telegrapher. At one time,
years ago, he worked with
another telegrapher named
Thomas Edison. The latter
became the inventor of I'M
mortal fame.
In the campaign of 1883
Foley was with the Western
Union in indianapolis. That
year the management of the
Western Union there was in
ardent sympathy with Har-
rison. The Republicans had
no trouble knowing what
the Democrats were sending
over the wire. Their leaders
looked over the Democratic
messages right in the office.
All this was maddening to
Foley, the ardent supporter
of Cleveland. But he was
helpless. He needed his job.
He was one Of the few Demo-
cratic telegraphers.
Then one day his oppor-
tunity came.
A telegram was brought
into the room and turned
over to a woman telegrapher.
It was brought in by a Re-
publican politician. Foley
knew it had political signlfl-
cance. It was handled so
carefully from the OutSlde
he suspected it might be i'm
pOrtant.
The woman to whom 1T
was turned over left the
room for a minute or so be-
fore doing anything with it.
During her absence, with
no one paying any atten-
ton, he passed her desk,
hastily read the telegram
it was the Dudley Blocks
of Five" telegram. He
fixed the exact wording in
his mind; hurried back to
his desk; wrote it out.
Then he waited until time
to leave work and telephoned
the political reporter on the
Indianapolis Sentinel with
instructions.

LISTEN, WORLD!
BY Elsie Robinson

ALL THE GOLD IN THE
WORLD CANNOT BUY THE
COMMUNION WHICH is
YOURS IF YOU, TOO, HAVE
KNELT BESIDE A GRAVE.
NEITHER A THRONE NOR A
SWORD COULD GIVE YOU
THE POWER WHICH WILL
COME IF YOU SHARE YOUR
TEARS.
But you must be willing to
share, or grief cannot do these
things for you. You cannot
hoard your tears or wall away
your grave. and yet find this
communion.
GRIEF IS THE GRIMMEST
AND THE LONELIEST EX-
PERTENCE ON EARTH, IF
YOU KEEP IT TO YOUR
SELF.
GRIEF IS THE RICHEST
AND THE LOVELIEST EX-
PERIENCE OF THE SOUL,
IF YOU SHARE 1T WITH
OTHERS.
Share your grief. Be hum
BILE about it. Look at it
simply, putting away your bit
ter arrogance.
See, dear? Your grief is not
different. It is all-of-a-piece
with other grief.
Your Lost Child
That child you lost was no
dearer to you than other little
ones are to their fathers or
mothers. That husband you
adored; that sweet, lost wife;
that gentle mother-the love
you bore them and the sorrow
you feel over their suffering
or loss, are but a part of the
universal mystery of love, in
which even the CommoneSt
man has a part.
Does it hurt your pride a
little to feel that your grief
is like all other grief? Does
it rob you Of a certain bitter
feeling Of superiority? Per
haps. We human beings have
a curious. sick conceit. But
see what you gain in place
of that which you lose!
YOU CAN GAIN THE
HEART OF ALL THE WORLD.
NEVER. AGAIN WILL YOU
BE ALONE: NEVER AGAIN
NEED YOU FEEL USELESS
AND ABANDONED-IF YOU
WILL SHARE YOUR TEARS.
FOR YOU WILL HAVE
ENTERED INTO A NEW
SERVICE. YOU WILL UNDER
STAND THINGS WHICH
HAPPY LIVES NNOT
UNDERSTAND. YOU WILL
SPEAK LANGUAGE WHICH
UGHING LIPS HAVE
NEVER LEARNED. YOU WILL
BE ABLE TO BIND UP
WOUNDS WHICH CAREFREE
FIN ERS COULD NOT
TOUCH.
AND, IN HEALING THOSE
OTHER WOUNDS, YOU WILL
FIND HEALING FOR YOUR
OWN.
