N “silent panic” to bring out his forebodings and let the air and sunshine get at them. The country begins its flecal year with favorable trade balance of $640,000,000. According to the latest figures of the Department ef Commerce the volume of our exports is nearly double what it was ‘tem years ago. Exports of manufacturers have increased in value from €468,000,000 in 1903 to $1,200,000,000 in 1918. Despite all “gaflroad disturbances traffic returns show a continued gain in gross earnings over last year. The season is far enough advanced to con- firm the earlier reassuring crop estimates. There is certainly no sign @@ feverish and unhealthy speculation in Wall street. Hardly « week goes by without emphatic assurances from some Western railroad R t or business man that in his section “skies are cle.r and : prospects never better.” : | Why then these vague shivers?

The Carlisle Arrow, a weekly published by the stu- ‘ dents of the United States Indian School at Carlisle, Pa., clips from @ Massachusetts newspaper, the Lawrence Sun, the record of 391 _ Pime Ridge Indians who put up 6,700 tons of hay for their stock, *and a notice of 2,000 Sionx who attended the last Episcopal convoca- tionsat White Swan, 8.
