New York Stock Exchange New York, Aug. 22—Profit taking caused considerable irregularity during early trading on the New York stock exchange today. The feeling in professional circles was that five consecutive days of simultaneous new highs in the industrial and rail averages entitled the market to a little setback. The pretext for a reaction was found in the unfavorable turn in the negotiations between the shopmen and rail executives.

GIVES LIFE SAVING OTHERS * , - I, m - W. C. Gentry Escaped Injury In World War, Diea Rescuing Texaa Flood Victim#. After serving with the color* lb the Infantry, field artillery, motor trailsm port corpa and Ule navy. w - °- ,1 Gentry returned am «*-.# w.j from the world ■L * ' VT war to hta Jiome '-'T at Fort Worth, Tex., without J having been la--1 Jb -«Jf jured. During the 'V / flood at Fort *» XVkssA. Worth In April, 1022, the Amerlj; ™UPPi can Legion culled Kjpupon its members ** t 0 do re g c u e work. Young Gentry was one of the first to present himself at the Legion office. During the first few hours he was in the flood district Gentry rescued six persons. While swimming toward the levee, after carrying a woman to safety, be became entangled In a barbed-wire fence which hud come to the surface of the water. He called to a companion for help, but the companion was too nearly exhausted to save him. The surging waters from which he had saved others soon engulfed him. Mayor E. R. Cockrell of Fort Worth urged his fellow citizens to erect a fitting memorial to the young man who had unselfishly given his life for bis fellow men. WHEN ONLY FOUR HOURS OLD Mias Rosalie Carol Larson of Worthington, Minn., Probably Youngest Auxiliary Member. Fortunately, there are no age requirements for membership in the American Legion Auxiliary. Anum- /’ \ ber of grand- E ] mothers were fe * 1 among the charter members of ; ’ the organization In Minnesota. On j the other hand, | r there are several young women | ,vho may say that , 1 they have be- f longed to the Auxiliary all their lives. Little Rosalie Carol Larson of Worthington, Minn., was admitted to membership when sh° was exactly four hours old. No, she didn't apply for the honor, it was just conferred upon her. Rosalie's father, Warner I.arson, served with the Twenty-ninth division, and her mother received her diploma ns a graduate nurse after volunteering for service with the American Red Cross.
THE FLOWERS OF THE LEGION American Daisy and French Poppy Official Posies of Both Branches of the Organization. There has been some confusion in the minds of Americans in general as to the status of the daisy and the poppy in connection with the AmerlI can Legion and the American Legion Auxiliary. The daisy Is the Legion's official flower; the poppy Is the Auxiliary’s memorial flower. The misunderstanding arose in the first place, because In Its early days the did adopt the poppy of France as Its flower. But at Its Kansas City convention the American Legion adopted the daisy as Its official flower on the grounds that the daisy Is an American flower and the poppy of Flanders Is available for use only lu artificial form. The Legion Auxiliary has taken advantage of the very fact that the peppy Is not available as a real flower to buy artificial flowers made by disabled soldiers In hospitals. The Massachusetts Legion and Auxiliary netted something over $46,000 from the sale nf artificial poppies, last winter. This money was used to better the conditions of sick and needy veterans of the World war. The Legion is making every effort to Interest the children of America in the cultivation of flowers by appealing to their patriotism and to their natural affection for such a flower as the American Legion’s American daisy. j Carrying On With the * American Legion Former service men In Pennsylvania received $40,000 in claims from th# government in one month through the efforts of the Pennsylvania American Legion. • * * A giant new bridge will span the historic Charles river at Boston, Massserving as a memorial to the Massachusetts dead who lost their lives in the World war. • • • Australia's heroes of the World war were honored on Anzac day, when religions services, soldiers’ reunions nnd public meetings were held throughout the commonwealth. • * * A freak pretending to be half baboon and half woman, giving America as her borne and declaring that there are many more like her in this country, : attracted considerable attention in a i Constantinople (Turkey) street carai- . val, until American Legion members j bad the act suppressed.

DISSENTION IS HINDRANCE TO RAILWAY PEACE (Continued from page one) seniority issue If the walkout of shop workers is to be settled, one of tke I leading labor figures in the strike told the United Press today. Unless the managements are prepared to coucede the shopmen’s demands for restoration of seniority rights, the peace conference or broth erhood leaders and railroad exeeu tlves in New York tomorrow, will be futile, he said. Fresh obstacles to rail and coal peace developed today, dimming prospects of immediate resumption nf work. Eastern railway executives announced themselves as unalterably opposed to settlement of the shop crafts strike on a basis that would restore to the men their seniority rights. This is understood to have been the proposal of the “Big Four mediators submitted for consideration of the 148 railway presidents who will meet in New York tomorrow. The peace conierence tomorrow will fail unless carrier heads accept defeat on this issue, a leading labor man declared in Washington. Anthracite miners’ representatives in conferences with operators at Philadelphia to end the long hard coal walkout have split among themselves with Chris Golden, a district leader, threatening to stampede. John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, still was hope- j ful today of a settlement, although he delivered a strong ultimatum to the owners regarding terms of agreement Walkouts by brotherhood rail workers on the Southern railway and at shops at Spencer, because of guards, were reported. — m NOTICE TO HUNTERS We, the undersigned, for protection of birds will not allow any hunting an farms rented or owned bv us: CHARLES WERLING, THEO.
