Many shrewd investors are disposing of high priced stocks (frequently yielding or less at their present market prices) and are investing the proceeds in good bonds. They thus obtain a greater return, plus the increased safety of senior securities which have preferred position both as to assets and dividends. In addition, a rise in bond prices, financial authorities agree, seems imminent. Our local representative will gladly give you descriptive literature and full facts on these high grade offerings, which are broadly diversified as to type, maturity and geographical location.

PRIVATE CHAPEL. Continued Cold, Weather Forecast Old Sol, who behind leaden-hued Thursday forepeeped, matertally reduced the four snow of Wednesday which gave Central Illinois its first touch of winter weather. The ture during the forenoon hours put the streets and sidewalks in rather a sloppy condition. Wednesday's storm sent the wild ducks and other migratory birds on their southern flight. Hunters says that reports from resorts along the Illinois river are that thousands of mallards arrived along the river just ahead of the blizzard.

The rise in temperature expertenced Thursday is only if the promise of the weatherman is well founded. A heavy frost is forecast for Thursday night, with fair and continued cold weather Thursday night and Friday. BACH REVIEWS EUROPE TODAY Rotarians Told That Germany Is Busiest Nation on Old Continent. Emphasizing the fact that an American may learn many things of profit to himself and his country by AL tour of Europe, William R. Bach gave to the Rotary Thursday noon a survey of his recent weeks of sojourn on the continent.

Mr. Bach began with Germany, 88 the first of the countries in which he toured. He described teatures of the life of the Germans, people of the busiest nation in Europe, he said. He asserted that the great burden of debt which the other nations had imposed on Germany because of the war, was in fact proving a benefit to Germany, for it compels her to work and build. He predicted that within a few years, Germany will be the most prosperous country of Europe, if not of the world.

Leaving Germany, Mr. Bach sketched his tour through Italy, Switzerland, France, Holland and Belgium, then on to England. He spoke in particular of the kindness and hospitality of the English ple and of the beauty and historic charm of their country. In closing, Mr. Bach emphasized the lesson in patriotism which a trip to Europe gives to the American citizen.

He expressed the belief that America need fear no future war with Europe, and urged that the patriotic endeavors of Americans be centered on breaking down the work of enemies within this nation rather than to prepare for war with those without. Cigars were passed to the Rotarians during the meeting by Dr. Harry L. Howell in celebration of the advent of his new granddaughter. Rev.
