But when they get rear a high or low everybody talks. Dow Lagi Behind This time the market men note that it took Dow-Jones average a considerably longer time to get to new highs for the year than it took Standard & Poor's In dexes. The standard index for 500 stocks was at a new high for the year on May 31. The Dow didn't get there until Tuesday. The Standard index for 500 stocks is only 1.80 points below the all-time record high Set on Aug. 2. 1956. The Dow-Jones in dustrial average is 11.57 points away from its hizh. The Dow actually is nearer the top than Standard because of the dilference in the amounts of each. Standard closed Tuesday night at 47.94 and the Dow at 08 .48.

It is considered accurate to say the Standard index rose 54 cents Tuesday, but it isn't considered right to say the Dow ran up So. 72. You must say 5.72 points. This difference is in the weighting of the Dow average to a Mow for stock splits over the years. The method is to change the divisor each time there is a split. The present divisor of 30 stocks is a mere 4.283 and not 30. Mr. and Mrs. Gus Carlson and boys and girls. Mr. and Mrs. B. A.

"That's what I must have thought and that must be what a lot of people say to those who think they can be saved by coming to Jesus Christ." Using Christ's touching and healing of the leper as his text (Mark 1:35), Graham said that "all through the Bible the word sin" and that as leprosy separates you from your fellow men, sin separates you from God."
