Utilities just managed to make the grade, being up 0.04 point for the day, to 26.09 and rails showed a email losi, 0.02 point, to 32.9S.

Transactions totaled 684,560, smallest session since February 23. For the week as a whole all classes ot securities showed a gain from the closing prices on February 25. Industrial averages were up 2.67 points for the week, the rails advanced 1.73 points aud utilities were ahead 0.4'J point. These gains were made despite the fact that many corporation earnings reports released last week were very much on the unfavorable side, some showing deficits while numerous others showed earnings way below those reported in 1837. Much of this news, however, had been expected and had probably been discounted by traders long before it became public.

Ou the other hand recent declarations by those who presumably apeak to a greater or less degree for the "administration" have been on the conciliatory side and have somewhat stipulated hopes for better days as far as government interference with business concerned.

It has been compounded of luperjti- tions. of religious rites. It has provoked some of the great dramatic situations of history, relates Seymour Korman in the Chicago Tribune. The reckoning nf time it as old as history itself. Primitive man noted the new moon, watched it wax and wane again.

He knew the moods of the seasons. There was cold and warmth and he sensed they came at regular intervals. The ancient Egyptians calculated time from the rising 'ot the Nile (in mid-June). The North American Indians reckoned a journey in so many "sleeps." The Incas of Peru erected cylindrical pillars and estimated solstices by measuring the sun's shadow. The theory of this stone and shadow reckoning is familiar in the sun dial.

Civilizations such as the Mayan, the Scandinavian, and the Babylonian had distinctive calendars many thousands of years ago. In classical Greece nearly every large city had its own calendar. The calendar depends on the sun, the moon, the earth, and a star. The rotation of the earth around the sun gives the year, the rotation of the moon around the earth gives the spin of the earth on its axis defines the day, the position of a star in the heavens gives the starting point from which to measure the year. All of the celestial motions are chronologically There never can be an exact number of full days in any lunar month or solar year, nor can there be an exact number of lunar months in the solar year.
