At the opening there was an uneven advance, which attracted some profit cashing. Later open ing buyers took to the aelling side. A closing rally carried prices from the day's lows. At the close wheat was V to 4 lower than the previous close. May $2.45-444. Com was 1 cent to SVj lower. May $2.26. Oats were l higher to IVi lower. May $1.14V4-H and soybeans were lVt to 5 higher. March $3.87H- Moderate wheat buying at the start was attributed to milling interests. Traders, however, said there were no definite indications the government wis in the mar ket. When the early buying tap ered off, and the commodity cred it corporation announced no pur chases Monday, selling entered the pits. The five day weather forecast said temperatures over the win ter wheat section will average near normal. Precipitation is ex pected to range from light to heavy.

Edward Gluesing, who is a real magician and master at sleight-of-hand. 3 The "House of Magic," however, rather than a magic show, is one which demonstrates the marvels of modern, science. Demonstrations are presented which demonstrate many of the ways in which scientific research is providing new things for greater health, comfort and convenience. - Gluesing was not always a magacian. During his lifetime be has taught school, been a private tutor, and served as a sailor in the UJS. Navy. A native of Wisconsin, he was graduated from the State Teachers College at La Crosse. After teaching science and mathematics to high school students for a few years, he entered the University of Wisconsin, from which he received a bachelor of philosophy degree. It was during these college years that he took up magic as a hobby. In 1934, when the G-E "House of Magic' science show appeared at the Century of Progress exposition. in Chicago,4 Gluesing assisted with lectures and demonstrations, thus ob taining experience which stood him in good stead when he later was placed-in charge of a "House of Magic" show touring the country. .It was theYate Floyd Gibbons, noted author lecturer and foreign correspondent, who was so impressed with what: he -found in the General Electric Research Laboratory at Schnec tady that he called It the "House of Magic.' The name "House of Magic" first was applied to the science show at Chicago's Century of Progress. It proved to be one of the outstanding features of that exposition, and since then has entertained nearly 12 million persons, including . 1,200,000 service tnen during the war years. 1 ,-! .. , y . . , . - i". - !,- . - ; ' Now in Its fourteenth season, the postwar version of the "House of Magic presents a wide variety of scientific nhe nomena.
