The Community Fair is not far re-
moved, and with all the events that
are being scheduled the day is sure
to be an exciting one. 1t has been in

new to be seen, and last year the
Kerrick fair received high cOmpli-
ments from the county agent, the
judges, and George Kelley of the Du-
luth Herald for the splendid display
of farm produce. A request came
from the Tri-State fair committee to
reserve a booth in Superior for the
competition there, but the displays
had already been returned to the own
ers and nothing could be done. This
year, however, something of that ma
ture may be tried. No one can forget
the good time at the dance last year,
and everyone who was here will be
here again. Everyone enjoys the Ker-
rick Community Fair as the biggest
and best little fair in the state, and
people come long way just to attend
it and forget their cares for day.

NEW YORK, December 1.-THE
stock market showed no inclination to
venture from its narrow groove Of recent
trading in a quiet session today.
While some brokers continued to talk
OF a Christmas rally. news of char
acter to impel the market in either di-
rection was lacking. Buying adviceS
which have been issued of late have
provoked little response.
The market firmed little in the
first hour today. and eased somewhat
in the second hour, closing with irregu-
lar net changes. largely of unimportant,
fractional proportions. The turnover
approXimated 100000 shares.
There was an abatement of selling
of United States Steel preferred. which
has been weak feature this week. That
issue closed a seant fraction higher.
while Steel common was off a meager
fraction. Coca Cola was a soft spot,
dropping more than points.
With the beer bill likely to come be-
fore the House of Representatives next
week, floor traders evidently sold Coca
Cola and bought the bottling issues.

Of 1881. a wider divergence than in the
previous week, which was 1879 per cent
under 1881, most of the carrier issues,
however, were about steady.
American Telephone firmed in the
late trading. closing with a gain of
major fraction. Westinghouse. Allied
Chemical and du Pont were fractionally
lower.
A better tone in wheat, in the earlier
trading, after yesterdays setback. may
have helped stocks. Cotton. however.

defaults. both accepted evidence OF
completed liquidation.
Numerous commodities have declined
below their prices of last Summer with
out bringing corresponding unset
t!ement In stocks. The September
quarter industrial earnings were read
and dIgested. Bad as they were indi-
Vldually or in the aggregate they did
not provoke selling
Then We come to the first phase of
the war debt discussion, which tempo
rarlly produced a mild reaction. The
unexpected defaults by France, Belgium
and Poland, with all that this means in
the possible delay of European recovery,
as we'll as the increase of national
prejudlces. scarcely affected the market.
All OF this means, of course, that the
great body of investors believe securi-
ties have discounted the evil effects of
what has happened or what may hap
pen and are not willing to sell their
securities at present prices. arguing
that the chances Of appreciation in
them in the next year Overbalance the
possibilities of further depreciation.
The short range. professional position
has been generally abandoned by Wall
Street in favor of a long-term policy.
This is illustrated in the increasing
number of trusts that are being formed
to build up investment portfolios at
what their sponsors believe to be an ad-
VantageouS price level.
Nearly all of the interest Of trade Just
now Is centered on the holiday demand
This could hardly be expected to be
the equivalent of other years. as the
purchasing power of communities today
is much lower than it was in 1881. In
the heavy industries production is SLOW
ing down. In iron and steel it Is ex-
pected to be little more than IL per
cent of capacity by the end of Decem-
ber. For the next few weeks the security
markets must obtain their encourage
ment from other sources than general
business. In the meantime the sustain
ing fact will be the strength that has
come to them from eliminating all weak
technical conditions and in presenting
them as shorn of all fictitious values.
