War Note. in Pine

The most ingenious device for con-
cealing notes was used by spy dur
ing the World war. 1t was a pipe which,
although constantly smoked, carried
numerous tissue paper memorandums
In secret space between the interior
and exterior walls of the bowl. In an
emergency, an innocent twist of the
overlapping rim would have caused the
burning tobacco to consume the papers.

Indians Fought Over Buffalo

With buffalo meat for food, buffalo
hides for clothes and lodges, buffalo
bones, horns and sinews for fashioning
weapons, tools and implements-smal
wonder that the mighty animal became
a strong motive in Indian rituals and
ceremonies. Early Indian wars, espe-
cially between the mountain Indians
(Utes) and those Of the plains (Arapa-
hoes and Cheyennes) came about, says
Nature Magazine, through contests for
the choice buffalo hunting grounds.

than a cocktail party. D.
I think that you have very
delightful plans for your party,
and I am sure that it will be q
great success, featuring as you
have planned, catering to two
tastes, those who wish to have
tea or coffee, and those who
wish to have q cocktail. And
because you are featuring these
two elements, think that you
should have them served in the
same room. For while you are
serving cocktails and horS
d'oeuvreS in the living room the
guests who do not drink cock
tails will have to wait for the
later serving Of their refresh
mentS.
So couldn't you have an extra
table in your dining room, or
use part Of the dining table,
for the serving Of the cocktails
and the hors d'oeuvreS that are
to accompany them? Then
the choice and the sequence
could be left with your guests.
The invitation for such a
party might, properly, be writ

you might write the invitation
as a note. OF course you might,
in these casual days, telephone
your invitation, but the card or

Informal Party

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am planning to entertain
several Of my friends. some
who attend a Sunday School
class to which I belong, and
others who are in business. The
Sunday School class is COM
posed Of girls between the ages
Of 18 and 80. Some go to
school, others are in business
and the rest are ''ladies Of
leisure"
I live in an attractive apart
ment, but my home is in an up
per apartment of a two-family
house. The idea is that I do
want everything in keeping with
my home. I do not want any,
thing too elaborate or oStenta-
tiouS.
Would it be correct to serve
cocktails and horS d'oeuvres in
the Iving-room. and after q
while go to the dining-room
where I would have coffee
served at one end of the table
and tea at the other. OF
course, several of the girls will
not drink cocktails, so shall I
omit them? would like to
serve finger sandwiches and tea
cakes. but if you have other sug-
geStions please let me have
them.
Shall send out a formal in.
vitation for a tea, or shall I
write notes or. telephene2 I

Insurance Issues
Slightly Higher

Insurance stocks in the New
York city market registered a
firmer tone during the past eek.
The aggregate value of 20 lead
ing fire and casualty insurance
issues, according to Holt, Rose
and Troster, amounted to $438,-
100000 on August II, compared
with $433, $4,000 on August 10,
an increase of $5,768,000 or 1888
per cent.
The current average yield of
the 20 issues of 4.16 per cent
compared with a yield of 4.22
per cent a week ago. The cur
rent market value is now la
times the current liquidating
value, against 1.12 on August 10.
Combined operating earnings
from underwriting and net in
vestment income are now 10.48
per cent on market, as compared
with 1861 per cent the week be-
fore, and based upon current
figures the 20 issues are now
quoted at an average of 9.5 times
their combined operating earn
ings against 81 week ago.

pletely ignored by the market
traders who continued to believe
that the dollar would be devalued
shortly in order to stimulate fall
business prospects.
Railroad shares were again the
prime favoriteS in the recovery
movement. New York Central,
Southern Railway, Atchison and
Southern Pacific were in fair de-
mand and advanced fractionally.
The continued favorable action of
the rails was further aided by the
better tone in the bond markets
where numerous second grade is
sues scored further gains.
. AlcOhOlS Improve
Alcohol stocks after displaying
a soft tone yesterday came to life
today under the leadership of Ma
tional Distillers which advanced
about a point. Schenley and COM
mercial solvents also were strong
and active.
Utilities also began to join more
whole -heartedly in the rally under
the lead of Columbia Gas, Ma
tional Power and Consolidated
Gas. American Telephone was
quiet and steady.
United States Steel turned slug
gish and showed no inclination to
go very far above 35 on any de-
cisive volume. General Motors,
Chrysler and the other motor
shares gave a similar demonstra-
ton.

UPSN|NG NOTED
FOR POWER
BY International News Service

Production of electric power last
week made the customary mid
August upswing to hit 1,674,345,-
900 kilowatt hours, third highest
total for the year and exceeded
but twice since early in 1880, fig
ures made public by the Edison
Electric Institute reveals.
This total contrasts with 1852
043, 900 kilowatt hours in the pre-
ceding week and continued far
ahead of the like periods of the
three preceding years when output
was 1,65O,2O5,0O0, 1,431,910,000
and 1,643,229,000, respectively.
Nevertheless, the margin of i'm
provement over the corresponding
1888 week was pared slightly to
is per cent in contrast with 1.9
in the previous week.
1t is understood use of electri-
city for pumping water in drought
areas continues one of the princi-
pal sustaining factors in power
output. The West Central States,
for example, last week were 1873
per cent ahead Of 1888

NARROW RANCE
HOLDS COTTON

NEW YORK, Aug. % G.N.S0.
The cotton market held narrowly
today, following its break of SIPS
a bale in yesterdays dealings, with
the contracts list marking time
around previous closingS.
Scattered liquidation in small
lots was combined with light, edge
sales and selling by the South, but
these offerings were absorbed by
good trade buying and demand by
Liverpool. The cotton market in
Liverpool was a somewhat firmer
affair, with quotations there from
three to six American points above
due prices.
The weather bureau reported
that during the last "a hours
there were rather general good
rains over the northwestern por-
ton of the cotton belt, with rains
also reported for southern Mis-
souri,, western Arkansas, Okla
homa and northwestern Texas.
States in the northern great
plains area also received relief
from the drought, as did Ne
braska, Minnesota and northern
Montana.
The Census Bureau ginning re-
port stated that a total of 353, 1888
running bales of cotton were
ginned from the 1884 growth prior
to August Is, as compared with
459,528 bales in the like period Of
1888, and 251,451 in the CORE
spending 1882 interval.
Late in the forenoon the list
was unchanged to up three points,
with October up 2 at 1917, De
cember p lat 1882, January up l
at 1898, March unchanged at
13.49, and May up 3 at 1883.
