WHEAT CHICAGO, July 30 (,T) After fluctuating erratically above and below previous closing level most of the session, wheat prices turned definitely lower Jint be fore the close, losses of a cent or more carrying quotations back to around Iowa for tho sea son. Selling was blamed on dealers placing hedges against limited amounts of wheat offered to the commercial trade and on lagging flour demand. Sporadic buying came from previous short sellers. War news continued to unset tle tho market and wheat weak ened later with corn, which was depressed, traders said, by expec tations that Die government price for feed wheat will bo lowered In order to push this grain Into livestock consumption. Wheal closed J-Hc lower than yesterday, September $1,171-1, December $1,201-1: corn l ie down, Seplember 801-lc, Decem ber 021-lc; oats unchanged to 1c off; soybeans 1c down to 1c high er; rye l-lo lower.

J1RRID 39', Bw Isr tfldtr St My Mere wlllo lrtlttIoMtUtatO159rfilJ Her Is th original Martha, back again and wondering If it's a good thing to go on a va cation. . . . People enjoyed th last two columns so much. whn It wit vrltton by man, that I'm worried about my reputation as a shopper and wrlter-uppir. . . . But. anyway, I learned about a lot of nev things whil I was gone and mayba that will help. Maltha. JkinJzl TELL, I'm really back in ! Klamath Falls. ... But I'm afraid in spirit I'm somewhere In the Pacific ocean with a convoy that is taking some of the nicest fel lows I've ever known into the midst of the fighting. After saying goodbye, I sat down and did a lot of thinking. . . . And the result is that to morrow, when Victory House opens in Klamath Falls, I'm go ing to buy bonds until it hurts. Because those young men are offering their lives as an invest ment for America and the Unit ed Nations, and they may never come back. . . . While the bonds I buy result in an investment for me, personally. ... In 10 years they'll be worth a lot more than now. . . . And al though it may be a small sacri fice at present, I don't risk be ing killed or maimed when I buy a bond. Those fine young men on the convoy somewhere in the Pa cific ocean have to depend upon us to help supply me tnings that will make it possible for them Jo wage a winning fight. . . . And when they come back, if they- do. . . . Wounded or well. ... I, myself, want to be able to look them straight in the eye and say. "I did every thing I could, too." I've found that my feet are b-gger in Klamath Falls than in San Francisco. ... No fooling. ... My shoes, which were tight here, were loose and almost too comfortable down there. JT was a great relief to me to find, on my return home from San Francisco, that Currin's had finally received a new shipment of Lelong's cream colognes. . . . The stock was depleted long ago, and Thelma Davis has been frantic because there have been so many calls for these new-type colognes. Colognes stimulate one's morale with their refreshing qualities, and their fragrances help to please other people. . . . And I think a gal ought to take particular care to look her best and feel her best at a time like this, when a lot of people can't help feeling low. Extravagance never has been a virtue, and right now it's just about a crime. . . . But person al daintiness is an attribute of American women and we must not fall down on the Job. Cue liiiti Liiliis a'oOUl colognes is that the fragrance lasts so long. . . . Much longer than in the liquid form. . . . And the ingredients in the cream are wonderfully soften ing to the skin. Included in the new shipment at Currin's are Lelong's Balar laika and Opening Night cream colognes. . . . And Balalaika Solid, which comes In stick form and is ideal for taking on a trip. In addition, there is the new est Lelong fragrance. . . . Siroc co. .. . Which has a lush sweet ness that will, I think, take the country by storm. . . . Since It's a complete new line, you'll be able to get the fragrance In Just about any way you want. At Currin's. t 1 noticed that the newest suits in San Francisco have lit. tie tucks and gathars her and th9 on the jecketi. ... In stead of absolutely tailored straightness. Which makt them look mora feminine. U. ii iii 191 LJ,-L nyHILE I wa In San Fran- Cisco I ran across a mar velous new preparation for keeping nails in hape. ... So when 1 came back I went In to Currln' to ask Vance Vaupel why he didn't order some. . . . And what do you think? ... He al ready had a hipment! The preparation is called "Nailube," and It's made spe cially for gal whose nails peel, DreaK, gel ringed, or Just plain snag things. . . . It's also won derful for hardened cuticle. You massage it In and around the nails every night. . . . And you'll love its spicy scent. . . . Then the excess heavy oil should be rubbed over the hand to keep them smooth and soft. They told me In San Fran cisco that business and profes sional men have been using it to . keep their hands looking better groomed with less atten tion. . . . But that's Just hear say as far as I'm concerned. One nice thing I've discov ered about this lubricator is that it doesn't affect nail pol ish at all. . . . And that' im portant, because It has to be . used regularly to get results. , . Like any treatment. A jar that lasts ages costs only $1.00. ... Ask for "Nail ube" at Currin's. . . . And your hands will be a pleasant mem ory for your man-in-the service. THE day after I came back ; I called up Pat Livingston and told her I wasn't here for my last coke and how about it? . . . And then pulled a mean trick by having a limeade that cost her 15c. During our conversation, I mentioned that I had seen a new line of Catalina Art Pot tery in San Francisco. . . . Striking-looking vases, aome of them in attractively unusuaj shapes. I noticed a smug smile on hea face, SO When I walker) harV tn Garcelon's with her I really wasn't too surprised to have her take me in back and point to the line of, Catalina Artware there. . . . ills same things exactly! She told me something I had n't learned in San Francisco, too. . . . That this CatM na nnt. tery is made by the manufac turers ot Franciscanware. Then are two different tim. of finishes on these vases. ... Some in regular ivory mat fin ish. . . . And others in a new type of pottery that ia especial ly durable and craze-proof, al though it has the "feel" of lus trous mat finish. Garcelon's always has a huge stock of all kinds of flower con tainers. . . . And that's some thing we should take advantage of. . . . The season is so short in Klamath Falls that we ought to make the most of it by fill ing our homes with flowers while we can. . . . Flower bring sunshine and life inside.. s Walton AaeHCif TEDNESDAY I had lunch with Katherlne Walton and told her all about what I saw in San Fran cisco. . . . And found that she was as pepped up as I because the business of the Wal ton Insurance Agency, which she manneres. hos Incriaisd amazingly this year. Maybe it's because she's been tending to business while I've been traveling. . . . But she thinks if due to the fact that people are learning the advan tages of the kind of Insurance the Oregon Mutual Fire Insur ance handles. This company, you know, be lieves that owners of neat ap pearing, well-built, carefully kept homes deserve a lower fire insurance rate. . . . Because the looks of the house indicates the owner's attitude. .'. . And these people DO get a lower rate in the Oregon Mutual. That's really a well-earned discount. . . . Although lots of people don't know about it yet. . . . And she probably is right in saying that the number of fire Insurance policies she writes in creases just as fast as property owners learn about it. In case you want to find out more right now. . . . It's the Walton Insurance Agency at 419 Main street, and the phone number ii 8321.
