A sharp advance in hogs, corn and lard at Chicago, actuated by Arctic sentimuit in security markets. Nor was much attention paid to favorable trade news, including an unusual year-end rise in steel opera- tions and busy preparations by the motor industry for an expansion in the market for motor cars next year. Washington developments prelim- inary to the opening of Congress next week diverted attention from trade trends and revived inflation talk.

And the new year follow through, With good luck, good cheer, good ‘ fortune And endless joy for all of you." So wrote ihe grand old lady of Dalhousle Lake. Ont., Mrs. Mary Ferguson McIntyre, who in her 101st year expressed the thoughts of millions toward the Dionne quintuplets Christmas Day. A great grandmother herself she takes keen interest in the progress of the mites. More than 100 presents pollred into the Dafoe hospital for the babies who in three days will be seven months old. The multi-coi- cred parcelswere opened by the happy parents, Mr. and Mrs. Oliva Dionne and among them were five pair of tiny woollen mittens, knit- ted by Mrs. McIntyre. , The day slipped by quietly at the little outpost hospital, named after Dr. A. R. Dafoe. The Dionne fam- fly party as planned-at first, did ‘not materialize. ‘Hie parents, busy receiving at their own home, de- cided to postpone the event until tomorrow. Late in the aftcmoon they man- aged to slip away to the hospital where they spent two full hours opening up gifts for their daugh- ters and themselves. _ They were excited~they had never before spent such an event- ful Christmas. Simple French. Canadian peasants a year ago-to- day they are world-renowned fig- ures. They expressed thanks to all who had sent gifts or cards. The babes themselves went through their regular routine, however, for Christmas was just another day in their young lives. Pbiiowing their airing at noon they were permitted to frolic in their little play pen. Teething rings, made of mother of pearl, with little silver bells, blankets. booties, stockings, dolls of all descriptions, coats and coat hangers, nightles. with the names 0t each baby embroidered on them and hot, water bottles were among the many presents. Among the 100 odd letters ud- dresscd to the mites was one, with an United States postmark and bearing the words "Dionne Quin- tuplets" only. Another envelope had five tiny cartoons of dolls car- rying placards and addressed to Callander. Ont.
