Dr, Minor Morris occupied the pul pit at the union church services at the roof garden last Sunday evening. He made a powerful appeal for the brotherhood of man.

Most grocers, especially thOBe mho have been regular readers of reliable trade journals, know all about the varying prices for sugar, and while they can't tell exactly why such things are, they know they .ire and they know as much as anyone else outside those big operator who are running the markets to rult them selves. The thing that has puzzled people most has been the action of the Great Western Sugar company in holding down the price of 'sugar to people within their' operating dis trict.' That policy was dictated, not by any market, but by a desire to build good will by fair de&Unir with those to whom they must look for future sugar beet supplies. That augar could have been aold in eastern I markets at a much higher price. Jugur promises to continue to be a I puzzler. Just now wholtm&lers arc losing moue, and lets of it, on sugar. because the market lias d' tlinud to figures B3ral ceuvs a pound below what Jobbers paid. ' Predictions are freely made by those who are In a position to know the statistical poaf-l tion of sugar that prices wm again advance from $3 to a bag over present quotations. Trade Exhibit. Mrs. L.
