Steels, alrcrafts, rails and arma

tor the recovery team in today's
tock market and scored gains
of fractions to as much as 2
points or so at the best,
v Many leaders, however, sat
on the losers' bench through
out the greater part of the ses
sion. Among these were motors,
rubbers: and mail orders. Clos
ing results, consequently, were
about as mixed as the war bul
letins with advances in the ma
jority.
f Dealings were fast and, slow
t intervals and transfers for
the Jull stretch were around
1,100,000 shares.

other 6-cent break in soybean
futures prices today unsettled
the entire grain market and
thwarted an attempted rally of
cereal quotations.
Wheat rose almost a cent, rye
more than a cent and other
grains fractionally early in the
session, but later turned lower
largely in sympathy with the
collapse of bean prices. Some
hedging sales were reported in
the wheat pit.
This was the second session
in a row that beans have tum
bled the maximum permitted in
one day. Weakness was attribut

SILVER LAKE Mystery sur
rounds the origin of a firo that
destroyed the IOOF lodge hall
here about 1 a. m. Saturday
and menaced the whole town,
which lacks a water system.
Lodge members who helplessly
watched the flames devour the
huge, wooden building and all
equipment freely voiced suspi
cion that the blaio was incend
iary. Loss is estimated at $5000
not covered by Insurance.
Only the determined efforts
of volunteer, firemen equipped
with garden hose and buckets
saved the nearby residence of
J.' W. O'Keefe. A light snow
on the ground aided the fire
fighters in preventing the fire's
spread.
The blaze started near the
ground at the rear of the build
ing, which was almost con
sumed before the front burst
into flames. Possibility of a
sinister connection between the
nre and the theft of a quantity
of gasoline from E. J. Egli's car
earlier in the evening was mentioned.
To many of those
this fire brought vivid and
dreadful recollection of th
tragic Silver Laka firm et
Christmas Eve 1894. when 43
persons lost their. live. That
fire occurred when an oil lamp
exploded in the upstairs hall

The new rates will be 4c a column inch higher than
those at present. The Herad and News have been
able to hold off a rate raise thus far, in spite of the
recent rising costs of operation, but it is now neces
sary to increase revenue to make ends meet.
We believe that advertisers will appreciate Jhe fact
that in the past ten years our paid circulation (the
real value of your inch of advertising) has been near
ly doubled. And an inch of advertising under the new
rates still costs less in The Herald and News than it
did ten years ago.
We also believe that advertisers will appreciate the
fact than in the past ten years our number of em
ployes has been materially increased, and that the
'basic wage scale for printers has? gone up from 85c
an hour to $1.20 an hour . . . adding our bit to the pros
perity of the community.-
Year by year The Herald and News have given more
value for the advertiser's dollar. In these days ofcur
tailed supplies of merchandise it is more necessary
than ever before to concentrate your advertising
where it is most productive. Use more Herald and
News advertising in 1942.
