Today's Market Quotations

WHEAT OPENING IN CHICAGO !S HIGHER

CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-Although confclderable interest wan manifested today as to what influence the final passage of the food control bill would have on the wheat market, observers found that the chief 1 development in the trade was only a disposition to await some announcement of the policy by the administrator to be appointed under the law. Without any apparent relations to the sweeping new federal enactment, wheat opened 2 higher at $2.27 September, and in later transactions held steady at ,c reaction. The strength shown was attributed to the fact that the government estimate of the probable domestic yield of wheat this season was much tinder what har been generally expected. Corn like wheat advanced as a result of the government crop estimate being somewhat less favorable than the majority of the dealers had been looking for. After opening c to c higher with December at $1.17 to $1.18 and May at $1.14 to 1.14, the market sagged a little, and then rofce higher than before. Unfavorable weather had a bullish effect on oats. Shorts -were the principal buyers. Fresh high record quotation's on aogs made the porivion market firm In the face of realising sales by bolders.

Farmers Leave Wheat Fields To Be Tested At Cambridge

CAMBRIDGE CITY, Aug. 9. This examination of candidates for the selective army is a weary business. Beginning at eight o'clock Wednesday morning, candidates for the army from the second Wayne county district passed into the big bare room in the First National Bank building, used as examination headquarters, in a monotonous stream. One by one they answered the routine questions, fired at them by the doctors, went through the physical examination, and If claiming exemption, made out the papers, and left

If they did not ask for exemption, which occurred only rarely, they left immediately. Put On Speed The examining board, James Miller, Frank C. Mosbaugh, and Dr. W. C. Squiers of Milton, with the aid of two assistant physicians, shot the applicants through much more swiftly than on the previous day. As on the first day, there was no visible excitement in Cambridge City. Groups of husky young men from the city and country stood about waiting their turn and discussing their chances, but that was all. Many of them had left their farms just at threshing time and were anxious to get back. The thundershower which broke over the city just at noon was the biggest topic of conversation in the afternoon. Russell Zook, wrestler, married, with an eleven-months-old baby, created a sensation when he said he would not ask for exemption. Shows Letter from Wife "And just to show that my wife Is with me," he said, "look at this." He presented a letter from his wife which released him to his country. He passed a fine physical test, and members of the board shook hands with him as he passed out Jack Adler, foreman in the Bertsch machine shops, the best man, physically, yet examined, 6aid he would present no claim for exemption, but

that the company probably would do so. About half of the applicants were married, and asked for exemption on this ground. Families ranging from one to four children also were claimed by most of them. The board cleaned up the morning call by eleven-thirty, and examined some of those called for the afternoon. Work was resumed at one, and owing to the absence of one of the doctors, went very slowly during the first part of the afternoon.

ONE HOUR OF WAR'S MARVELS that picture every phase and every vital scene in the complete and overwhelming BATTLE OF THE ANCRE. It shows giant British "TANKS," the colossal war monsters, huge, almost uncanny in appearance, like giant fire-breathing dragons that plunge their mighty way thru barb-wire entanglements, leap trenches, battle thir way thru forests, over swamps and into the trenches of the enemy, spitting out their rain of fire, the mighty vanguards of the advancing armies of the allies. No history, however vividly written, could tell of such scenes as these films picture with the unlying eye of the motion picture camera. The advance of the supply trains and troops, the brave soldiers waiting eagerly in the first line trenches eager for the command to charge then the command, and over they go into the maelstrom of war's fury into the enemy trenches, while behind them-the giant howitzers hurling out their curtain of fire beat down the first three lines of defense it pictures the capture of whole regiments of German troops scenes in dressing camps and comissary, while mingled with the grim reality are the scenes of jubilation in the victors' camps at the triumphal return of the victorious allies.
