MORAL VALUE
"Halite's Inferno," now showing
at the Arcade theater, Is perhaps.
In Home ways, one of the greatest
pictures of the yeur. Dante All
ghlerl. Italian poet, writer of the
Divine Comedy, tittle knew when
he presented his greatest work to
the world that centuries later It
would be transposed so thai all
could Hi:!: 11 but such is the Tact.
The "Inferno," In addition lo 1
lavish and beautiful setting, car
ries a mural lesson Hint would un
doubtedly leave Its mark upon
many, were they to digest its mean
ing. II Is connected with a modem
plot, centered about a grasping mil
lionaire lo whom the laws of hu
manity an: unknown. In a dream
he plcturlzes Virgil's leading of
Dante, through Hades and what h
sues there has a remarkable influ
ence upon his future life, "Dante's
Inferno" Is a picture that every
adult person should see. .

"The second' reason for current
dullness In some lines Is the direct
result of had weather which cer
tain sections of the country have
suffered the past winter. The
weather was generally good every
where until about the middle of
January when . a tretnenduously
cold wave hit the north with heavy
snow storms in many sections.
New York slate waH tied up worse
than it has been for years. This
snow in the North was accompanied
with rains in the South where
railroads wc(.c, ...washed out ami
farms were flooded. Then in I'V-b-rmiry
the weather suddenly tinned
warm ever where. The .snow and
ice melted; shipping and transpor

".NEWS" and "TOPICS"
Ing was rg really retarded the past

tion upon business. Hank, clear
ings, car luadiugs and other Im
portant business barometers show
a dent due lo this mouth of unsea
sonably weather.
"Not-, only is buying retarded by
had woather, but transport at ion
and distribution are likewise
checked. I'Overj thing is delayed
from the mails to the freights.
Wires get down Interfering with
telegraph and telephone communi
cation; while both passenger and

but causes shut downs of factories
for want of coal,, raw -materials or
other supplies. Added to all this
is. the com of handling snow, clear

"In addition to general retail
trade being retarded by unseason
able find bad weather, cer.'ain lu
dust rfes are especially affected,
liad driving weather always slows
up uutomohile and truck pur
chases; while the demand for
tires, oil, gasoline und other ac
cessories dee lines sharply. The
building trades are, of course, al
ways held up by winter weather,
and road building whii'h is now
such a factor must be suspended
iu the north during such a period.
Kveu the overcoat trade has been
very unsatisfactory first the
weather was so bail that people
did not gel out to buy; then It be
came so warm thai people did nut
want overcoats.
,4Thus we ace there Is a good
reason why general business has
not been as good th'e past Mow
weeks as many thought it would
be. It is true that the corner
t u rned for t h 4 bet t c r wit h t h o
election of Coolldge in November.
The weather even played 11 part
in electing him. The good crops
of the I niled Stales and the poor
crops of Kurope resulted in giving
our discouruged farmers a new
hope just before election which
helped the Itepublicaii party. This
same weather has not behaved so
well since and. in fuet, went on
a riotous spree for a Yew weeks
in January and Kebruary from
which we are now suffering."
In'iiudllion to giving these rea
sons for the disappointing business
with certain sections are witness
ing. Mr. Pabson concluded with
t hese woVdsj
"This study of weather and
business demonstrates most clear
ly how dependent we all are ou
one another. Wage workers, em
ployers,' railroads, .shopkeepers and
preachers all profit am( suffer to
