A PLUMP meadowlark rose. from
the shoulder of the highway. His
yellow breast flashed in the,zsun-
light for fraction of a second.
There was slight thud against the
front of the fieeting automobile. and
through the rear vision mirror could
be seen dying bird fluttering on
the pavement.
fhe car and its occupants went
Ion. The road was good, the weather
was fine, there were things to do
In the distant, town. But we see
the element of chance. Why was
meadoWlark Sitting by the high
way? Why did ne rise and fly in
the fatal direction? He might have
flown away from the car. Why did
3 the car come at that split second
OF time to intercept the flight of a
bird? There could have been an
infinite number of other combina-
tons of events.
The car could have had a flat
tire, or its driver made the trip
earlier or later by part of a second
the day before, the next day, or
not at all. The number of possibili-
ties of bird intercepting car at
one fraction of second are beyond
human conception. Nevertheless il
did happen.
Most everything we do. iseweTl
according to plan Most everything
In Nature is according to a very
definite plan. We see definite steps
In the development of a plant
animal or man. For the most part
the history of each follows a yerv
regular pattern.
But then comes the unusual-the
rare combination of circumstances
which we call Chance" Robert
Burns told how the plowman upset
the nest of the mouse in the well
remembered statement, ''The best
laid schemes o. mice an men gang
ait agley." In Agriculture, we see
the unusual happen There is the
nail, frost, or fire; but even the
unusual may be diverted by the
unusual. The hail may take off
INTO barren country, blanket of
SHOW may protect us from the FROST
OF the wind may change to turn the
course OF the fire. The best ex-
ample is when drouth changes to
abundant rain fall.
Even though we do not under
stand chance, it is our duty to con-
tlnue to play the game.

An application for reaccredi-

Some Steel Buyers
Reported Confused
By Market Changes
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 28.-
Changes in the steel market have
caught some steel buyers fat
footed, but alert purchasing men
are saving their companies
money, Iron Age, the national
metalworking weekly said today.
The publication noted buying
confusion" as shown by the fol-
lowing:
Some buyers got hung up with
commitments for conversion, for
eign or premium priced steel
after it was available at regular
mill prices. Some are paying
extra freight for material that
could be bought closer to home
Some trimmed inventories too
quickly, some too deeply . some
have not seized the opportunity
to avail themselves of alternate
sources of supply without ma
terially increasing costs"
Iron Age added, however, that
some alert purchasing agents
have shown a grasp of the mar
ket and altered their buying poll
cleS to fit it.
Freight absorption is enter
ing the picture, the weekly added,
as some steel buyers ask their
suppliers what they will do to
meet lowered delivered prices of
competitors. This means money
savings without narrowing the
purchasing agents list of sup
pliers, said Iron Age.
The weekly predicted good
steel business for at least the
next six or eight months. In
ventory correction is about two
thirds finished, it added, and
some major consumers are re-
entering the market now.
Iron Age looked for the usual
seasonal upsurge of buying in
the spring. An extra incentive
TO buying, it added, will come
because of the approaching wage
