Trading In the eg? market la rela tively weak. The fecent advance hi the price of extras here appeared more of a forced affelr than any actual need of the market. Any im mediate future advance in that line are expected to be of similar charac ter Over the holiday there wsa prac tically no changes of note in the market for live chickens. General slowness is reflected In the mark.?! for country killed meats here. Ko changes of moment are indicated as usual fcr the week's opening. Some carryovers were reported. First telephone peas of the season were reported in. The stock was of fairly good quality. General pea market Is about steady. Telephones around 6-7c lb. Price of lemons shows a fairly sharp advance here as a result of rises In California. First of the season's new red on ions are In from the Stockton district and show quality with sales around $2 sack. Old Oregons are scarce and firmly priced 11.76 with wax holding rather well around $2 crate. No change of interest Is shown in the potato market either for old or new crop. Most sales of California new crop are around 2-2 'c lb. This applies to boih red and white. Old stock moving fairly well but only locally. Lettuce market is active locally with prices rather firm. New crop beets and carrot are showing a good movement.

Lochner BERLIN (rf- Every inch a law yer that's how the German public I stes up its foreign minister. Dr. Julius Curtius. An ideal, affection-; ate husband and father that's how) those who know his private life.' characterize him. j Curtius approaches in intricate ! problems of Germany's international j relations with an analytic mind , sharpened by long court room ex- j pe rte nee. Like Polncare and Brtand. ' Curtius and Stresemann were op posite the one a man of faces and figures, the other a dynamo of hu man Impulses. Always smartly dressed, always dignified and cautious, always polite and proper, Dr. Curtius is anything but a glad-handing politician. The! masses scarcely know him. His I methods are not the vote-catching i kind- His oratory fluent, logical and compelling e is nobody afire. At Home He's Jolly Yet he by no means lacks warmth. 1 Ko sooner has he left his desk In Wllhelmstras&e and started through the ancient foreign office gardens for his official residence than he is changed man. The Joyous shou,ts with which his younger children he has two sons and four daughters acclaim his approach indicate that the), at least, feel nothing of his ; alleged coolness. j And when he has been away to ' Geneva or The Hague, and the dig nitaries of the foreign office line up at the Berlin railway station to wel come their returning chief, the Curtius Juniors invariably upset the ceremony by rushing at their daddy. Curtius' chief recreation consist of being with his family. There the humor and abandon of his Rhenish nature breaks throuch. When the youngsters hsve retired. ( however. Dr. Curtius turns to read ing. Books are his favorite compan ions, even during his vacation. , His trained, retentive mind stands him In good stead as foreign minis tei. Colleagues say he knows every . provision or every treaty mat Ger many has concluded with other na tions. In International conferences, It Is bard to beat his logic. 1 He never springs surprises, but is' equally Immune to having anything put over on him. As he knows French and English, the time-consuming services of Interpreters are unnecessary; "We do not allow ourselves to be) affected by romantic dreams, and j we are not chasing after imperial lsttc plans," Curtius slated before the Reichsrat recently. "Any other way but that of peaceful understand- 1 lng is out of the question for u. We of all people nrfd peace. We POET'S CORNER MEMORIAL AND DECORATION DAY By c. C. F. Lloyd I would like to go back with my thoughts. To the things I have seen In the past, To see what changes have been wrought. By time that travels so fast. I would like to go back as a babe. To the arms that first held me fast: And look again In those eyes that no shade Can erase the memories that last. I would like to go back to the school. Where I first had my troubles with books; Then to the brook and the pool. With the rod. the line and the hook. I would like to go back to the days. wcu an imiure seemea to bloom" To romp and play In the hay. By day, or the light of the moon. I would like to go back to the homo. With my father, mother and all; Prom which I then wanted to roam Not knowing the cause of It all. I would like to live over acaln. E:h good thing I did all through All bad and sorrow to ban. That would cause any trouble or siruc. I don't want to go back there to stay But to visit again with It all: For I would not want to trade The present for all I recall. Be my life full of sorrow, or gay. One day Is set aside In each year Our "Mtmortal and Decoration Day ' When our Joys are replaced by our tears. It Is then I go back with my thoushtA To things I have seen in the past To see what changes have been By time, that travels so fast. And soldiers, who were brave and true. Who gave your lives for us: We decorate your grave tor you. In memory you are still with us.
