MARKETS-STOCKS Dally Report of Local and Foreign Markets. New York Stock Exchange Now York, May 19—Stimulated by new highs In Industrial iiverugcs, by new high selling level for nearly two years, in the copper group and by further increus in the federal reserve systms ratio, stocks were buoyant at the opening. Rails were especially strong, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western soaring to 123 against Wednesdays low of 117. Lehigh Valley sold 64, up %; Northern Pacific 76. up >4; Chesapeake and Ohio 65% up '» and New Haven 30%, up %. In dustrials were generally higher. Central Leather made a new high at 40% while coppers gained fractionally. Trading in Freeport Texas was characterized by a heavy volume of transactions at. around the best levels. 11:30—Stocks moved ahead vigorously in the general list in the first hour under the impetus of new forward swing in the oils and rails and urgent buying In steel common. Reading led the carriers, spurting to a nwe high at 81. Sime of the strength in rails was attributable to developments in the coal strike situation. Secretary Hoover’s proposal to the bituminous operators whose mines aer still working prove to have been reasinable and calculated to prevent, or at least rduce, the possible effects of the strike on the coal market and upon the consumers. Another significant , thing is that the anthracite operators have at last made concrete proposals to the men. It was to have been expected that these would be rejected. Nevertheless they mark a resumption of active negotiations for a settlement. Sugar Market

SORORITY GIRLS PAID HONOR TO THEIR MOTHERS (Continued from page one, men. The dictionary contains many thousands of words more Imposing, high-sounding and mouth-filling, but among them nil there is no word that pulls the heart strings or strikes the chords of life’s music like the magic word, Mother, In honor of your name, in your living presence, we, your daughters, tonight most reverently ami lovingly bow. As we welcome you tonight, memory carries us back across the years to our first conscious childhood and the dream of the poet, “Backward, turn back&rd, O time in your flight, Make me a child again, just for tonight,” is realized. Those years of our childhood, youth and young womanhood have been hallowed with mother’s love, consecrated with mother’s prayers and baptized with mother’s tears. In the prosaic humdrum of busy life those years have been an endless succession of washing and ironing, cleaning and scrubbing, cooking and baking, darning and mending, saving and economizing for us. Toil and sacrifice have been your portion. No other word could fit your life of self denial. That is why "Mothers” Is the only word of seven letters, six of which are "others.” Countless tributes of tongue and pen have been given to mothers.

The artist's brush, the sculptor’s chisel, the poet’s inspiration have vied with each other in giving us a conception of the devotion and sacrifice of mothers love. Upon canvas marble and the printed page they have sought to preserve the divine mystery of motherhood. But the canvas fades, the marble crumbles and words vanish away while the mother’s love remains changeless, imperishable and eternal. In the Book of Books, Solomon says of her: “She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of kindness. She looketh well to the ways of her household and eateth not the bread of idleness. Her children arise up and call her blessed.” Presidents and potentates, philoi - ophers and scholars, the wisest and the best of the sons of men in all ages have ascribed their success to the teachings and the influence of mother. Our mothers, ”we welcome you Your hair may be silvered with the frost of many winters; your hands may be g*Bhd and toil-worn with the drudg<*Ry life; your brow may be furrowed with the lines of care, but through it all your heart kept young.

We welcome you because you are true. You believed in us when others disbelieved. You believed in us when we were wrong. You were true to us when we were untrue to you. Your hand brought balm and solace to our fevered brow. Your mother kiss wooed us back to health when medicine and scientific skill were powerless, and of no avail. The expression “Frailty thy name is woman,” may apply to some women, but to our mothers, we say, “Constancy thy name is mother” Youth fades, love droops; the leaves of friendship fall; A mother’s secret hope outweighs them all. The highest type of human love has been said to find its expression in “The Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man,” but we would put it, “The Fatherhood of God and the Motherhood of children.” We welcome you as the queen of our homes. It is mother that enlarges the conception of the home and fills it with love so that “Home’s not merely four square walls Though with pictures hung and gilded. Home is where affection calls, Filled, with shrines the heart has builded.” Tonight’s program is for you. Our sorority is honored by your presence. We hope that you may be with us many many years; that life’s pathway may grow sweeter, brighter and more beautiful as you approach that home where perfect love prevails. In the name of Delta Theta Tan and on behalf of all Its daughters, we welcome our mothers and throw open wide the portals of our hearts. The language of words is too cold and inanimate to do justice to the heme, but let us say to you, If we could walk through the floral gardens of the world and pluck the flowers of rarest beauty and sweetest perfume, and then select from the crowns of kings and queens the rarest jewels that glitter there, we would fashion thorn into a more beauteous crown, and with the hand of love, we would place that crown upon the brow of Mother—America's uncrowned Queen.”
