- MARKET GOSSIP

Eunishcd by Mowat s. MacGilllvray,

Stock Brokers. J

The most constructive factor at the moment with regards to the stock market is that there is no lack oi

» money available for trading pur-

pose in industrial and utility, stocks. There has been as yet. no official an- nouncement of a resumption of the 6 pcr cent rate for loans to brokers, but the signs point to a drop of one- ; half of 1 per cent soon. Most of the |buying that is taking placc is for investment account and some issues still arc attractive from the point ‘of view oi yield, with the probability oi appreciation over the long term.

The leading Canadian distillery stocks have of latc shown distinct signs of life and has resulted in some attention being focused on these se- curities. That the main reason for the unpopularity oi this class oi stock has been that the export mar- ket oi the companies concerned was greatly curtailed, is well known, but. those who have been delving into the financial positim of the variutu com- panies have come to the conclusion that their present market level has more than discounted any unfavor- able factor-sand their exceptionally high yield warrants their accumula- tion. Hence, one of the reasons for the demand. Another factor that hos halped sentiment is that the opinion prevails that the Canadian Govern- ment does not look with favour upon the American demands to put an em- hargo on the export of liquor.

Imperial Oil

The softness in the price for the .shares of Imperial Oil Limited is tho ‘topic oi much discussion on the Street. Weakness is mostly attributed to the various cuts in crude oil which have boon made by the leading American companies and in this con- nection we have been advised that next issue of the "Lamp", house or- gan of the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey, would not make very

THE sort oi family feeling-total- ly lacking ‘nowadays-that used to exist between an author and his readers is recalled by Lizette Wood- worth Reesethe beloved poet, who remembers that when Dickens dlcd in theysummer of 1870, she-a girl in her early teens-heard the news while visiting her grandmother at Baltimore, Maryland, walked all the mile and ahalf back to her own home saying to herself “Dickens is dead. Dickens is dead."

"I hurried on, through the June weather," says Miss Reese, "ready to cry both my. eyes out. because I had been told that Dickens vras dead. And his readers everywhere had that scnseof permanent loss"

O EVEN as tlate as Kipling-in the heyday of his early popullvity-that "family feeling" between author and reader was ’still strong. Miss Rees/e recalls that ‘yo... Kipling was deper- ately ill oi pneumonia in New York "how the entire country (the United states remember) to go about on hushed feet, with finger at lip." "A sensitive woman I knew ," re- nlinisces Miss Rome‘ (in “A Victorian Viliiage"—sald village now being psi-t of the City of Baltimore)‘ "seeing a church doorlopen went into the buil- iding, dropped on her knees. and ipmyed that he would be allowed t0 lilvc."

, 000

AND at one of the literary clubs .in Baltimore. on an afternoon when ‘mo reports from Kipling?» physician became reassuring. the whole assem- bly, told oi these, broke out into ap- piause-Miss Reese ‘recalls.

Now, Mr. Kipling, it's your turn!

WHICH reminds me _ that Mark Twill], too,'wa.s seriously ill at the same time, 0nd that the cables were

asked to "Name three kinds oi people in the world":

“There are lthree kinds of people in the world-ladies who have hus- bands, ladies who want husbands, and ladies whose husbands are dead."

e

"ALL Baltimore—at least that part which was in the secret, rocked and roared" at this Joyous statement, says Miss Reese. "It sent us back to that classic answer, which a child in East Baltimore had given to the demand Put the word phlebotomy into a sentence.’ She did. ‘My aunt had o. phlebotomy and the doctors came and cut it of!”

which asked that Christians would “please be excused" for her inability to attend school duYlng the past week as her mother lmd had a, baby. "Please excuse, Teacher. It won't

TALKING oi children everyone knows they are born romancers. weaving their stories out of anything that strikes their fancy. I-Iere is the record oi a nursery battle between fact and fiction-given in "I Will Be Good“ by Dion Clayton Calthrop:

"Mother," said a wee child at bed- time, "I'vc just seen a lion in the garden."

"You naughty girl, you know it's only a dog. Say your prayers and ask Gcd to forgive you for the wicked fib."

000

DOWN on her knccs went the lit- tie girl, and up again with a rosy face. “It's all right, mcihcr," she piped, ‘I told God about it and He said. ‘I've often taken that dog for a lion myself, Miss Brovmf" Irresistible!
