New York-UPD-Not long ago
investors didn't have a single
good word for bonds. Common
stocks took
top - rating in
all discussions.
Now there's
still a tend
ency to belit
tle the bond
market, but it
lacks the vigor
of the earlier
antipathy.
People are
beginning to look at bonds and
talk about their high yields
in contrast with low-yielding
stocks. ' 1
Articles are being written
calling attention to senior se
curities. Even the current
stock exchange magazine,
"The Exchange" has a page
devoted to them.
"The Exchange" points out
that on the basis of letters re
ceived, most of its readers are
primarily interested in equity
investments-common stocks.
Many, However, assert their
Izer
Elmer Wi
chief investment objective is
income. .
Bonds Underrated i
change,
"Perhaps," says 'The Ex
change', "some of these in
vestors are missing a bet by
not looking into the merit of
sound bonds.
"If they usually offer less
prospects of capital gains than
the best common stocks, high
grade bonds are generally saf
er than equities."'
"The Exchange" publishes
a list of 20 bonds with yields
above 4 per cent, and notes all
of them show returns, of one
per cent or more above the
current yields for many prom
inent stocks.
Eldon A. Grimm, analyst for
Walston & Co., also writes on
high yield bonds-a utility
around 5 per cent, government
bonds, 444 to ArVi per cent
for some issues; municipals as
high as 8 per cent, and notes
all of them show returns of
one per cent or more above
the current yields for many
prominent stocks

It's a Mechanical Age
For Some Mice, Too
During the summer It was
pleasant. Food was plentiful,
the living easy. But when the
air gets frosty, the mouse clan
seeks a warm building.
For the young and inexper
ienced mouse, born outdoors,
there are many strange and
dangerous contraptions a s
well as hazards with which
he must acquaint himself. To
live inside a house he must
develop a slight flair for
mechanics, for he will be in
contact with dangerous things.
Refrigerators, for instance.
The lower part of these ma
chines afford many hiding
places 'for a mouse but he
must exercise judgment. He
must adjust himself to spin
ning wheels, rapidly travel
ing belts and dangling wires.
When the machinery starts,

Adams Youth Wins
Two Steer Prizes
The Dalles (DPD Roger
Rothrock of Adams won the
grand champion steer and
also the reserve champion
steer prizes Tuesday at the an
nual 4-H and FFA livestock
show and sale here.
It was a repeat perform
ance for young Rothrock. He
showed the grand champion
and reserve champion steers
in 1956.
Northeast Oregon high
school boys topped the FFA
livestock judging contest with
winning teams from Wallowa,
Enterprise and La Grande.
Garry Willet of Wallowa
was the show's high indi
vidual in judging all animal
divisions of beef, sheep and
swine.
Grant county's team won
the 4-H livestock judging con
test for the second straight
year. Charles Adams, 15, Clat
skanie, was high individual
4-H judge.
There's also a certain vibra
tion. At first this must shake
the little animal until his
teeth rattle. Every time the
motor starts or stops the
mouse will become vibrant
with the motion.
The mouse in the engine
room of the refrigerator must '
sense the fact that if he can
adjust himself to the shaking
and rapidly moving wheels
and belts, he will be really
sitting on top of the world.
The advantages of his adobe
cancel out the danger and the
noise. On a cool night the
motor heat is comforting. He
is in a place where the fam
ily cat can never come. Even
the housewife seldom looks
in the engine room compart
ment. And if by some strange co
incidence of nature a little
girl mouse comes to live in
the engine room, his cup of
joy runs completely over.
Offspring .
A little later, if no acci
dent befalls such as a snap
ping trap, a litter of baby
mice will come to gladden
the nest. Mr. and Mrs. Mouse
don't know it but their child
ren, born in this mechanical
environment, also will be
faced with problems that mice
born a few years ago never
had to contend with.
For from their first glim
mer of consciousness their
world shakes every few min
utes; every time the refrig
erator motors starts. By the
time they are big enough to
leave the home nest to start
out on their own, they have
almost acquired the "shakes."
It must be somewhat discon
certing to leave this strange,
vibrating world and stand
solidly on the immovable
kitchen floor for the first
time, to find that the larger
world is more stable than
they knew.
Even when the motor-impulses
of their mechanical
"home" is left behind, in spite
of themselves, they probably
will continue to shake and
vibrate. Environment can do
some strange things even
to a mouse.
