Most graphs depicting the course
of Industrial activity are now at the
peak for 1888, while others have
crossed last years position and
some have bored into the 1881 ter
ritory.
In the latter category, the steel
industry continues to be blue rib
bon leader, with production nearly
on a parity with 1880. Production in
late July and August, it is believed,
will probably rest with the rail-
roads and the building industry.
Thus far the automotive and tin
plate industries have accounted Tor
most of the demand.
Electric power output advanced
strongly for the week ending July l,
the latest available report, the gain
of 1877 per cent over the correspon-
ding week last year meant that pro-
duction was above the level of the
like 1881 week and also higher than

1880, inclusive.
Due to suspension of operations
on independence Day, automobile
production last week, as estimated
by Cram, showed a decrease of H.
1923 units from the preceding week.
However, the total of 41,915 units
indicated no change in daily output.
Loadings of revenue freight for
the week ended July l, totaling
634,O75 cars, were 29.S per cent
above the like period last year, the
highest such increase reported this
year:
other trade indices revealed
marked strength. The production OF
lumber was the largest since Sep
tember, 1881, and bituminous coal
output approximately so per cent
ahead of last year. Department store
sales in many districts have spurted
20 to 25 per cent over 1882. General
wholesale trade is more buoyant
than for two years and many orders
are reported to have been lost be-
cause delivery dates could not be
met promptly.

HONOR THE OLD

Oh! how can youth with life profane
Speak mocking of the old?
1t brings a shudder through my
frame,
Life's current courses cold,
When on an old mans palsied form,
The senseless jest or sneer,
From tongue of half-grOwn boy or
miss,
In careless tone | hear.
Do they not know that ancient one
Was erst as young and gay,
With footsteps light, with eye as
bright,
And form as fair as they?
And heed they not that he perchance
Through long, long weary years,
Has trOd in bitterness of soul
This dreary role of tears?
Do they not know by length of days
Such wisdom may be gained,
AS youth with every hour well spent,
Has never yet attained?
For in the book of human life
Are countless written leaves,
And lessons conned through pain
and grief,
The learner oft receives.
And if his walk has been upright,
Heaven close awaits him now,
When hoary hairs a glorious crown
Rest DER his wrinkled brow.
Yield due respect; nor place straw
OF stumbling, in his path,
Lest you, like those who Knocked the
seer,
Should reap avenging wrath.

there in the car, but go out in the
woods where the cars don't run?"
Yes, Alfred" The father had a
twinkle in his eye. He had greatly
enjoyed the boys surprise.
when do we go, Dad? When do
we go?"
Just as soon as we can get the
tent and other things ready. But re-
member, Wen have to carry our
things for miles. We can't back
down. We can't get a car to carry
us when we are tired"
"Oh, Dad, l won't back down.
Didn't l get a prize in the camp?"
"That prize, Son, is the reason we
are going to camp now" The man
spoke slowly and impressively.
Late August is good time to go
camping. Well come home brown
and ready for school,"
A happy boy raced from the house.
He and his father were going camp
ing. 1t was something he had never
imagined. even in his widest dreams.
He had gone to a boys camp every
summer, until this one, with boys of
his own age. But to go alone with
his father, the man he thought the
greatest on earth, why, it was - be-
yOnd words.
To this ten-year-old boy his faith
er was a demigod. He was a good
man, a perfect gentleman. The son
had never seen him rude or silly.
He had always treated the boy as an
equal, even when he was a small
chap. He had talked with him ex-
planning intelligently, gravely, the
things he should know. But he had
never been a pal.
Mr.. Washburn had gone to lee
ture, a short time before, given by a
man who knew boys. There he had
learned that "a man might be an hon
orable citizen, a wonderful example
with regard to general conduct and
culture, and still not be good faith
er.

France and Italy, while production
gains made in Germany and Eng
land since the low points of last
summer have been generally held.
There has been a general firming
in wholesale commodity prices, the
movement being upward in the
United States, Germany and Italy,
with quite stable prices prevailing
in France and the United Kingdom.
Trade experts say that the con-
spicuous advance of the business in
dexes in the United States since the
very low point of the banking holi-
day has not been paralleled or fav-
orably reflected in other large in
dustrial countries.
They explain that there still re-
mains in the path of world. business
governmental and private debt and
great masses of unemployed, both
pressing down on consumer pur-
chasing power-the stagnant pool of
international trade and piles of
frozen" private capital unavailable
for investment.
Hope held for increasing the
amount of foreign trade depends
largely on efforts to obtain domestic
rehabilitation in all countries as
we'll as the distinctly international
matters of stabilizing the currency
and settling questions relating to
tariffs and trade barriers.
One essential difficulty seen by
some of the world situation is the
conflict of national and information
al programs. For instance, Ameri-
cas- plans entail possible imitation
ary procedures, economists say,
while such imitation, together with
tariffs, serves to make it more diff
cult for foreigners to sell in this
market. Likewise, American sales
abroad are hindered by currency
difficulties and trade barriers.
Typical bright spots listed in the
U. S. business structure are the
gains in industrial production-iron
and steel, lumber. automobiles, tex
tiles and food processing-the rise
in commodity prices and postal re-
ceipts and the improvement in retail
trade. Particularly encouraging
have been gains in employment and
factory payroll advances far beyond
seasonal increases.
In relatively stable France, where
the industrial production index
shows a sustained and fairly sharp
rise from the low point of midsum-
mer 1882, the majority of industrial
and commercial indicators were
favorable at the start of the summer
season.
The general industrial situation
in Germany lacked signs of i'm
provement beyond the usual season.
al trends. Slight domestic demand
recovery was reported practically
offset by the decline in foreign or
ders attributed to the boycott on
German needs after the NaZi came
into power.
No industrial production index is
computed for Italy. but reports to
the department. of commerce tell
of encouraging improvement in
general conditions, increasing in
dustrial production, steadying of
wholesale prices and a balance OF
trade continuing to be less unfav-
orable."
, In England there was little indi-
cation of an increase in general
business activity. Commerce re-
ports are that an optimistic feeling
is prevailing in British industry
and commerce.

759.45.
The revenue from the gasoline
tax for the past six months while
showing a slight decrease under the
last six months of 1882 is not con-
sidered of any note as the gasoline
tax always increases during the
summer months. The amount of
gasoline tax paid into the State
Treasury for the past six months
shows a total of $5OS,577.14 while
during the last six month of 1882,
the amount was 25,294.21.
The revenue received from the vi
olation of motor vehicles laws for
the past six months shows a total
of $17 7,398.5O as compared with $780,

While the figures for the revenue
from the automobile department are

RushIng Poultry TO Market

Rushing Poultry To Market
The past week has been one of
much activity on the part of the
poultry dealers who reside here.
Trucks have been kept busy convey
ing the poultry to New York, where
demand seems better then else
where. The amount of chickens
coming into Glendale is enormous
and both Mr.. Prettyman and Mr.
Beebe, the wholesale dealers are
kept fully busy trying to handle the
broilers and other stock offered for
sale. Where all this stock comes
from one can hardly imagine, but
when we take into consideration
that the trucks from Glendale visit
all parts of Sussex county and parts
of Kent county, buying poultry Of
all kinds which is for sale, we can
in a measure account for the large
business being done at this point.
One truck owner said he made five
trips to New York the past week
this is going some.
Crops
Wheat threshing is about done
around Glendale and the yield is
very poor-the advance in the price
of wheat will not offset the loss
from which the farmers will suffer
from the meagre crop obtained.
The corn crop looked very prom
Using some time back, but the effects
of the recent storms seemed to re-
tard its growth. The wind beat the
blades so badly that the ends are
turning brown; this is especially so,
near the bayshOre. Another feature
noticed is that corn is tasseling very
near the ground. Whether the crop
will be able to overcome these set
backs and make fair crop of corn
remains to be seen.
The tomato fields don't look so
promising as before the late storms.
The vines seem inclined to blight,
which will retard to large extent
the crop expected. A half crop of to-
matoes pay better than a full one.
Let the farmer look at it from that
point of view.

"LUCK"


The boy who's always wishing
That this or that might be,
But never tries his mettle,
Is the boy that's bound to see
His plans all come to failure,
His hopes end in defeat,
For that's what comes when wish
ing
And working fail to meet.
The boy who wishes this thing
Or that thing with a will
That spurs him on to action,
And keeps him trying still
When efforts meet with failure,
Will some day surely win,
For he works out what he wishes,
And that's where luck" comes in!
The luck" that l believe in
Is that which comes with work,
And no one ever finds it
Who's content to wish and shirk.
The men the world calls lucky"
Will tell you, every one,
That success comes not by wishing
But by hard work, bravely done.

GRANDMA'S
SCRAP BOOK

Out of a brothers way,
The bit of heartsome counsel
You were hurried too much to say.
The loving touch of the hand, dear,
The gentle and winsOme tone,
That you had no time or though for,
With troubles enough of your own.
These little acts of kindness,
So easily out of mind,
These chances to be angels
Which even mOrtals find
They come in night and silence,
Each chill, reproachful wrath,
When hope is faint and tagging,
And blight has dropped on faith.
For life is all too short, dear,
And sorrow is all too great,
To suffer our slow compassion
That tarries until too late.
And it's not the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone,
Which gives you the bitter heart
ache
At the setting of the sun.
