HOROSCOPE “The stars incline, but do not compel." TUESDAY, Aug. 84, 1920. Astrologers read this as an unimportant day in the government of the stars. This should be a fairly favorable rule under which to look for new openings in business. They" who seek employment may be lucky If they push their interests while this configuration prevails. To sensitive mortals the contrary Influences of the stars may be subtry felt in an unusual sensitiveness to criticism or sudden depression of spirits. While It may be reasonably lucky for all who go in quest of positions they who invest money will do well to delay initiative until a more promising sway of the stars. There is a sign that seems to Indicate that evil stars incline men and women too toward exaggeration and misrepresentation. He who is exact in his statements will benefit. Persons whose blrthdate it is will prosper during the year If they do not speculate. Children born on this day may be highly organized and sensitive. They should be carefully managed, for they are" likely to be exceedingly talented.— Copyright, 1920.

NEW CURB MART w GREAT SUCCESS Despite Rains, Eight Farmers Come First Day. Reasons why the downtown city market has degenerated into a place where agents of commission men and peddlers congregate to the almost total exclusion of the farmers and gardeners whom it was originally designed to attract, are being made plain by the energetic band of south side women who have been fighting for the establishment of curb and vacant lot markets their neighborhoods. Despite the heavy rains of Saturday, the new curb market in Fountain square was opened with great success, Recording to Mrs. M. L. Reiffel, 1019 Dawson street, president of the South Side Women’s club, which .organization kept after the city council until It was promised It would not be molested by city authorities if It Induced farmers and gardeners to come In and sell. Eight farmers brought their produce to the new curb market, sirs. Reiffel reported. “We woud have had at least twenty had it not rained,” she said.

“This number have promised us that they will bring produce to the Fountain square market each Tuesday morning and all day Saturday and to the Arizona street vacant lot market on Wednesday and Saturday mornings hereafter. “I think we have demonstrated that the farmers, contrary to the statement of city authorities in charge of he downtown mnrket, are not only willing, but eager to bring their produce into sell directly to the housewives. COULDN’T GET *N DOWNTOWN MARKET. “Why one farmer came clear from Morgantown, which is twenty miles south of the city, with a forty-bushel load of peaches. “Another farmer, congratulating us on the establishment of the new market, told me bow he was treated when ne tried to get a stand on the downtown curb market. “He said he went to the market house, asked for the market master and was told he was- not In. “After waiting for an hour and a half without results the farmer said he asked one of the market master’s assistants if he could get on the market that day only to be told that all of the Stands were leased, but that he could wait around until 10 o'clock and see If anybody sold out, In which case he might get In. “Os course he conld not take this risk with his perishable products so he came out to our market rid we got the benefit of his lower prices.” Farmers at the new market Saturday sold tomatoea at $1 per bushel and agreed to deliver them wherever ordered. Other prices were correspondingly low. Councilman Jacob P. Brown, who was chairman of n special committee ap pointed to Investigate the demands of the women for the new market, visited the market Saturday evening. Mrs. Reiffel said the members of tbe South Side Women'* club are grateful to the council since It was the only body of city officials who helped them in any way.
