SWINE VALUES GENERALLY STEADY

INDUSTRIAL RISE HUTS LIST AM STARTS BUYING Wotor Shares Continue Upswing and Chrysler Makes 162.

Bu United Press NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—Wednesday’s vigorous trading wiped out a greater part of the reaction earlier in the week and brought the industrial average hack to within a point of its record high. This evidence of the market’s vitality encouraged additional buying at the opening, giving the general list a buoyant tone. Motor shares continu< and to push ahead rapidly, Chrysler attaining the best levels of its history at 162 and General Motors new high ground for the present at 100 Vt. Tremendous volume characterized dealings in Arnold-Constable, Symington and other nev 'ssues. After proceeding at 2,000,000 share morning, the forward moveconsiderable rearound noon from profit taking and professional feelers put out In an attempt to find the top of the rise. However, the volume of dealing slumped perceptibly when reactionary tendencies developed. Good support appeared on the setback and the general list steadied after recessions of a point or so among the leaders. General Motor's climb above 100 yesterday presented a novel situation of simultaneous buying by insiders and the "outsider,” W. C. Durant, but Durant seemed to have the better part of the argument in this case and began buying first. It is estimated that Durant's present holdings total about 50,000 shares.

WHEAT SHOWS SLIGHT GAINS Losses Registered in Other Grains. Bit Vnitcd Prrut CHICAGO, Sept. 17.—Wheat closed showing moderate gains on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Declines were registered In other grains. Wheat moved erratically within a narrow range. Resumption of the eastern buying and covering by local shorts were responsible for gains. A slight drop at the finish represented profit selling. A feature of the trade was lack of buying orders. Bulges brought out sales, but It was noted few buyers were aroused to action on the dips. , Corn's trend generally reflected profit taking. Traders were on both sides of the market. Most strength was displayed on the lower price side. Oats displayed steadiness. Trade was of mixed character. Provisions advanced on short covering by cash houses.

Sept. 17.—Taxpayers can save a million dollars annually by using currency of larger denominations than the $1 bill, according to the U. S. Bureau of Efficiency. The public Is using $1 bills where it should be using twos, fives and tens. This means that a greater number of $1 bills must be engraved than hills of larger denominations, costing Uncle Sam considerably more for production. Keeping 1,000 $1 hills in circulation also costs the Government more than keeping 100 $lO bills in circulation, thus placing a direct burden on the taxpayers, according to the Efficiency Bureau.

Poster Campaign Uncle Sam Is requesting the public to forget Its superstition, handed down from old gambling days, that the $2 hill Is unlucky. The $2 bill should be given its proper place in the Nation's currency, the bureau says. Every time a $2 bill Is used it retires a $1 bill from circulation and saves its weight in currency. The Government plans to placard the banks of the country with posters urging the public to use the least number of bills. The posters will point out the beneficial effect as follows: 1. Decrease the bulk of currency that Individuals need carry in their pockets. 2. Decrease the bulk of currency that change-makers need handle and keep in their tills. 3. Decrease the bulk of currency that bank cashiers need handle, count and carry in their cages. > 4. Decrease the work of money counters everywhere. 6. Decrease the chances of making mistakes. Public Awkward 6. Decrease the detail of money counting and recounting at the Treasury Department at Washington when new bills are issued or old ones redeemed. 7. Decrease the bulk of the money to be manufactured by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing for issue by the Government. 8. Save the Government directly a possible one-fourth the cost of this manufacture and the public many times as much in the waste labor of counting and recounting innumerable small bills. The public, efficiency experts contend, handles money—the greatest tool in the hands of man—awkwardly, and that by taking thought the manner of its use could be materially improved by just using big bills in the place of little ones.. BANDITS SWITCH AUTOS Rob One Man of sl2, Iyeave Him— Car Taken From Another. Sheriff Hawkins had no clew today to the identity of two young bandits who worked on the county roads outside the city limits Wednesday night. Nicholas W. Franklin, 314 W. Vermont St., said the bandits stepped out in front of him on the Georgetown Rd., and ordered him out of his car at the point of a gun and drove toward the city. Three hours later the same two bandits drove in front of an auto driven by Amos Hubbard, 2001% Shelby St., at Bluff Rd. and the Illinois Central R. R. crossing. The bandits searched him and took sl2 he told police. As they drove away in hiß auto, Hubbard said the holdup men tossed the keys to Franklin's auto back to him and told him to drive into the city in that car. He turned it over to police.

One of the most impressive features of Egyptian architecture was the “pylon,” an example of which is here shown. This pylon stands before the Temple of Kamak. On the pillars are inscribed scenes from the lives and deeds of Egyptian kings.

EET us take a steamer at Cairo and voyage up the Nile to read the story, going hack 6,000 or 7,000 years, that its tombs and monuments have to tell. Nowhere else in the world can -we find so,complete a history of man’s progress for so long a time, and nowhere else can we trace so fully the links in the chain which led him up from barbarism. The Nile valley was the chief cradle of the earliest civilization. In the days wheh men first learned to erect buildings more permanent than mud-daubed huts and to fashion metals and make written records. The hot drifting sands and rainless atmosphere of Egypt have also preserved the remains of that civiliza-

Durina this period of four and one-half years, net earnings available for interest have averaged over 3.20 times interest charges. The net earnings available for interest for the first six months of 1925, amounting to $6,067,420, were eauivalent to 3.30 times the interest requirements on the total debt outstanding during that period. As the greater part of the proceeds of this issue will be applied to the retirement of 6 per Cent debt, and the balance invested in revenueproducing telephone plant, it is expected that the present ratio of earnings to interest charges uHll be improved by the issue of these Series C Bonds.

tlon in greater abundance than those of any other early people. In burial pits of the late Stone Age, scooped out in gravel beds below the sand, we find the bones of Egyptian peasants and chiefs who died more than 6,000 —some scholars think 10,000 years ago. By their side lie stone implements and pottery, which tell us that though they had not learned the use of metals, they were skilled at molding and baking clay into Jars to hold food and drink. Picture records show local chieftains controlling the irrigation ditches and collecting taxes of grain and flax. Fragments of linen, small stores of barley and wheat, vasepaintings of boats with oars and sails, give us further glimpses into

the life of those old Nile dwellers in that far-off time. Stop for a moment to think how ancient these records are. Think back 2,000 years to the shadowy figure qf Cleopatra, last of the ancient rulers of Egypt. How long ago that seems! But go back another 2000 years before Cleopatra and Egypt was already an ancient empire with 1,400 years of known history! Go back about 4000 B. C. and we reach the time when some unknown Egyptian discovered strange metallic beads melted from the copperbearing rocks with which he had banked his camp-fire, and so learned the use of metals. Go back another thousand years—to about 5000 B. O. —and we find these mysterious people of the dawn of history already irrigating their fields of flax and wheat, weaving beautiful stuff of linen, and making pottery; though their only tools were of stone and hone and their only houses were wattled mud huts. Only a generation ago this fascinating chapter of the world’s oldest history was unknown. It is only within the last few years that the men of science wo call archaeologists have discovered it, and read its pages by delving in the sands and uncovering the burial pits of four, five and six thousand years ago. Tombs of later dates continue the story. They show us how the ancient Egyptians learned to make paper from the papyrus plant, how they developed their early picture writing into alphabetic writing, how they learned to mold bricks, cut stone and carve statues. And not only do we find their paintings, their pottery, their jewels, their tools, their wooden chairs, and their papyrus books, but we even find the bodies of the men who made and used these things; for their mummies are so perfectly preserved by embalming that we can compare their features with the portrait statues of their kings, and see how well the sculptor caught the likeness.
