PRICE LINES MIXED
ON BOND MARKET
Rail Liens Lead Downward
Trend But Changes Vary
Around Two Points

NEW YORK, Oct. 29-R-Price
lines were thoroughly tangled in
the bond market Tuesday.
Prices started downward with
rail obligations supplying the main
motive power. Demand for a select
ed group of carriers developed
later in the session, however,
which either trimmed or cancelled
earlier losses.
Changes either way were limit
ed to a maximum of around 2
points. Turnover expanded to 81
$50, 900 from So, $40, 900 Monday.
The lower tendency in the stock
market acted as a strong deterrent
TO more vigoruos bidding but some
investors were tempted by what
they considered attractive yields
offered by a number of carrier
liens. Many such obligations are
priced at around the lowest levels
in two years.
Closing lower were Baltimore &

MONTGOMERY SIDELIGHTS
BIZ ELSIE WHITE HAINEs

Will you all pardon us this week
if we just give you little rehasA
of things we have written previous
years at this time? We are really
too excited to look up zone of tosc
historical pieces" which a good
friend last week asked more Of
for it seems that another of our
dreams is about to come true-tell
you about it next week.
Last year about this time we
were writing about an old slate we
had found in the attic. 1t has been
all of forty years since states were
used in schools but we can still feel
the sensation it caused to hear a
scratchy pencil writing on slate,
sort of creep at the back of the
neck. The slate has the date 1853"
scratched on it. The Sentinel was
only 8 years old in 186S-no tele-
phones then--no automobiles-no
central heating-no airplanes-no
school buses-no modern conven-
fences as we now list them, but
great grandpapa and grandmama
knew how to live leisurely and get
the most joy out living.
In 1914 about this time o'year we
wrote: eve have sung of June in
January but never before have we
experienced it. Just a weather
breeder said the older folks, as the
thermometer lowered around 70
degrees several days last week.
Birds sang as in April-flies woke
up and buzzed lazily-children play
ed minus hat and coat-men sat on
the porch in shirt sleeves women
washed blankets and hung them in
the sum-" Now remember that was
in January 1914.
We also wrote about that time
of the wealth of human interest
stories one encounters in the court
house-chuckles, pathos and some
times real heartbreak. Here are
two stories we had picked up that
week:
"Where is the Jubilee Co'rt
ma'am? we were asked as we
walked down the courthouse corri-
dor. Taking a look at man, wife
and numerous progeny we directed
him to the Juvenile Court.
Story number two went like this:
A man came into a public health
clinic with hand pressed to his
chest" What is the matter with
you? a nurse asked. "Well
been decapitated all week, ma'am'
