Coffee Cocktails And Canapes
BY BETTY BARCLAY

Youngsters never feel so old or SO worldly wise as they do in the "go- ing on nineteen" years. They'll be thrilled If you flatter them by serv- ing grown-up refreshments for their vacation parties.
 It's not much trouble to make them some cheese canapes and rolled sandwiches. But don't forget the young sophisticates still have big Sweet tooths." So wind up the festive menu with Mocha cake and coffee cocktails, made of ice cream and decaffeirated coffee, so they can all enjoy extra cups without counting sheep later on. Let them do their own shaking of the coffee cocktails in @ thoroughly worldly manner. Whether it's a get together after the tennis match or a moon- light supper, make the party help yourself affair. Buffet style service is the very smartest party technique, anyhow, besides being a joy to servantless hostesses, and it's grand way to help the youngsters melt their social ice.

Grain Prices Climb

Wheat Futures Jump
5 to 8 Cents q BusheI
In Chicago Trading
BY FRANKLIN MULLIN.
Associated Press Market Writer.

CHICAGO, Sept. / R.-Grain
prices scared as high as they could
under trading rules today as the
outbreak of fighting in Europe
stunned the financial district.
Wheat prices jumped to cents
a bushel, corn to cents, oats 3 to
6 cents and rye to cents.
Because Government and ex-
change regulations prohibit further
price advance in a single session,
these gains brought about a trading
deadlock in as much as very little
grain was offered for sale even at
the sharp advance. Practically
every broker in the wheat pit had
pockets stuffed with buying orders
which could not be executed be-
cause they could bid prices no
higher.
Closing prices for practically every
grain contract quoted on the ex-
change were at the pegged limits
for the session. Wheat was 5 to 8
cents net higher, September, 1873;
December, 1872, and May, 74ls. Corn
closed 4 to GA cents up, September,
