WHEAT GOES HIGH Oil HEAVY DEMAND CHICAGO, Dec. 26. Wheat prices hhd an upward slasi today Influenced largely by hope of an improved foreign demand and by scantiness of domestic receipts, The market bowever. showed , considerable nervousness owing to tbe uncertainty of tbe outlook regarding peace. For tbe most part, trading was of a local character. Opening prices which ranged from off to 1 advance, with May at $1.69 to $1.69, and July at $1.38 to $1.38. were followed by a slight reaction and , then by substantial gains all around. . Corn shared the strength of wheat Predictions of a cold wave tended also to lift values. After opening unchanged to higher tbe market continued to ascend. In the oats crowd the principal factor was the firmness shown by other cereals. Business was of a holiday sort, lacinkin in volume. , Higher quotations on hogs gave a lift to provisions. Pit speculators, though, seemed disposed to sell freely on the advance. ....-

MORRISON ACTING III USUAL MANNER

S. E. Nicholson, of this city, secretary of the National Anti-Saloon league and editor of The American Friend, today declared that the action of Rep. Morrison of Indiana in branding as ineffective the nation-wide prohibition bill, which is sponsored by tbe National Anti-Saloon league, and urging the adoption of his own prohibition measure, was merely in line with the tactics Morrison had pursued ever since he voted against the Hobson prohibition bill two years ago. Nicholson indicated that in his opinion Morrison, because of criticism which had been heaped upon him as a result of his vote against the Hobson bill, was now trying to discredit the Anti-Saloon league and appropriate to himself the league's thunder.

FIRE RAZES HOME AS CHIMES SOUND CHRISTMAS HYMNS It was a sad Christmas for William Newman and his six children, who reside on South N street, Bealhiew.' When they returned to their home late Christmas eve prepared for a holiday celebration Monday they found the house a smoking ruin. Shortly before midnight Sunday fire, cause of which has. not been determined, started in the Newman home, a double frame house, and the building was almost completely destroyed despite the desperate efforts of the firemen to save the structure. Not a member of the family was at home when the fire started and it was some time after the flames had destroyed the house before Newman and his children were located. The children had been visiting relatives in West Richmond and Newman was in the city. The property, owned by Newman, a railroad man, was valued at about $2,000 and the loss was partially covered by insurance. This blaze, which was at its height while the chimes were ringing their Christmas greetings, was the only fire in the city during the holiday.

A Strong Company i A Good Car

Read that line again: "A Strong Com-

pany A Good Car." There is your guarantee that Saxon and Satisfaction go hand in hand. Building motor cars that satisfy owners, completely and invariably, is the very basis of Saxon success, and the bulwark of its strength. Unknown three years ago, today, over 2,000 of the best automobile merchants in the country handling its cars, and a production of 60,000 cars a year, is the record of the Saxon Company. It is a striking and significant testimonial to the honesty and square-dealing of the Saxon Company and to the good value in its cars. And the Quaker City Garage is fully aware of the obligations to Saxon owners and prospective owners it incurs in acting as representative of the Saxon Company in this territory. All those obligations will be fulfilled faithfully. SAXON MOTOR CAR CORPORATION DETROIT (727)
