President Wilson's proclmation or- dering the return of those properties to private ownership on March 1 next stimulated the entire transportation division, tne buvinz soon extending to railrond equipments and kindred steels. |” TobucC..s, ous, motors and numerous peace industrials were added to the list in the course of the almost steady rise, together with food shares and issues of no definite classification. For the first time this month trad- ers and commission houses reported a visible quickening of public interest, although the imajor portion of the day’s purchases. probably originated from short covering. Approval of the president’s decree was almost universal in railway and financial circles, but it _was relaized that the uncertain course. of federal legislation still leaves the transpor- tation situation in an obscure state. Heavy deposits of holiday or “shop- ping” funds are expected to correct last week's depletion of bank reserves but call mgney rose to 15 per cent. after opening at 10, holding at the maximum rate at: the close. Offerings of time money were nominal. country banks buying freely. of commercial paper. Sales aounted to 1,250,000 shares. Dealing in foreign exchange were comparatively small, but the British rate weakened moderately on reports that plans to establish credits on London had met with unexpected ob- stacles. Liberty bonds were foreigns featureless, steady and but the general domestic list hardened on further buy- ing of speculative rails. Total sales, par value, $32,000,600,000. ‘(?ld U.

Campaigns for the develop- ment of teams, coliection of funds and other important details essential to success in such an elaborate under- taking are already under way, aided in several cases by government su- pervision and subsidies. i No better example may be cited than the plans and arrangements of the French, which invoive a generous | use of the army methods and system. Three classes remain mobilized of the great army of France at the present time. They are the class of 1917, boys 22; that of 1918, aged 21, and the class of 1919, youths of 20. Thus the flower of the French race, physically and from an athletic point of view. remains under arms. They are dis- tributed in various garrison.townsand departments of France. It is from amonz these three divisions that athletic France expects to recruit 30 or 40 first class athletes to add to the already fair quota of men who are slated to represent France at Ant- werp. The following program has been decided upon by the athletic directors of the French army. at the head of whom is Col. See, chief of the Joinville school of athletics, for the French army. Elimination trials will be con- dueted in every regiment of the above three classes, each soldier making a specialty of the sport for which he has shown the greatest inclination and to which he has been pronounced fittest by the doctor of the regiment. These trials will occur after three, four and perhaps six months of prepara- tory training under the eye of an ~th- letic director. Soldiers whe have shown class warraniing their under- going further training wiil be picked out and directed to one of the large enters nearest their billet—Strasburg. Lyons, Marseilles, Bordeaux and Paris. According to the schedule adopted the men chosen as being worthy of further trial will reach their various headquarters some time in the spring. Then semi-finals will be keld in Slarsfl-l burg. Lyons Marseilles and Bordeaux. and it will be a case of the survival of the fittest. These will be sent to Join- ville, near Paris, where the final touch will be put to their preparation. Fift: iefs of battalions are just now fini Z recial course of train- ing at the Joinville school, and in a few weeks will be disseminated among the warrison towns of France to com- mence the training of the men and of- ficers. Two. hundred officers and 150 men are already hard at work at the school, some of them training in their own behalf, others cetting ready to take in hand the men who will be sent to them from the provinces. Join- e is close to Pershi stadium and the final work of the Olympic candi- dates will be done at the former American stadium. One million francs of the 10,000,000 voted by the chamber of deputies for the intensification of athletic training among French youths has been ap- pronriated for the work at Joinville. The officers and men at Joinville are already training in earnest and an Associated Press correspondent re- cently saw Tirard negotiate the 100 meters in 11 seconds flat, Carlaix run n 2 minutes seconds and young Guillemot do 10 lometers without being pressed in 233 minutes. These performances are very close to championship form. Young Guillemot is considered as being the most likelv successor to the famous J. Bouin. He is somewhat awkward in his style. but when it is realized that six months ago he had never competed in a race the way in which he has been winnin~ from all competitors lately would seem to indicate that with a little more experience and tralning he will be a hard ma® to beat at Antwerp. Guillemot was _discovered - by an American officer. He was stationed at Brest and attended the fleld games of the American army on May 30. Stand- ing on the side lines. he expres<ed the desire to take nart in a five-mile race which was just being started. He was allowed to enter mere as » ioke than anvthing else. He reeled off his tuni~ took off his army shoes and ran in his stocking feet, running a splendid race and finishing third. ing Star Runners Invited.

Small, who has charge ot} the horses owned by the Hartford | sportsman, Frank D. Whitcomb, will hibernate at Charter Oak park, Hart- ford, having taken the stables recently vacated by Fred Hyde with Helen March, 2.07 1-4, the consistent race mare, and Lillian R, 214 1-4, by! Foros, 2.22 3-4. Another recent addi- tion' to the Whitcomb stable is the 6 yedr old trotting mare, Luckstone, 2.15 1-4, by Moko, which has been raced by W. L. Bull in the middle Atlantic states this year. The Connecticut Fair assoctation is planning a purse of $5.000 for a free- for-all pace as a special peature in connection with its Grand Circuit meeting at Hartford in 1920. Several years have elapsed since the first flights of pacers has been seen on the eastern tracks, and Philadelphia. Por)hkeepsig, Boston and Svracuse will follow Hartford’s lead, either by giving an early closing event or a large purse among its late closers for them. Trom all appearances, ice racing will be the major sport this winter at Woodstock, N.

NO. 4. Three Beaten Paths A few days ago we quoted from a number of famous men ‘on saving money as an essential to success. There are a thousand ways of saving money. We have all tried our little pet schemes and have found out that most of them do not lead us anywhere but dwindle away into nothingness after a while. After all, there are three broad paths for the man to follow who wants to save money to real advantage. One of them leads to the bank, the second to the land, and the third to the other man’s business. The bank is splendid. It is usually and properly the first station in a man’s money saving journey. But it has its limitations. ~Ask yourself what the bank does with your money and you will soon see that with. a little study you might make that money earn more than the bank can possibly: afford to pay you in in- terest. Real Estate. It has been called the foundation of all wealth. It has also been said, however, that a man must have a real estate nose to make it pay. In other words he must have a keen intuition for property values and the trend of com- munity development. He must also be endowed with infinite patience.and very real business ability in order to solve successfully the many problems of upkeep and tenancy of improved real estate. The third path leads to a very interesting field. . The other man’s business is always interesting. We invite you to examine it with us in the next article in this series, Pl HINCKS BROS. & CO.
