Associated . “' anclal Writer) . (A. P. By Guardian's Special Wire) NEW Yoax, . a-eoaring specialty issues, several of them at new highs for the year or longer, provided occasional fireworks for an irregular stook market today. Financial analysts said the swift crom currents of conflicting trade and foreign news had left nvsst- ore and traders iri a confused state of mind. While tho market as a. whole was under the influence of

. no one dominant force. a handful

of special developments served to haul individual groups in their wake.

The market got away to a fast start with prices firm on tffldirw so heavy that the ticker was left behind. 1n spite of the fact that specialties ran ahead of the pack, the rest of the list bumped into profit-taking, more aggressive in some sectors than in others. Alter jiggling around irregularly during the balance of the session, the market, as measured by the Associ- ated Press average 016g stocks. closed down .2 of a. point at 55.5.

MINING

(Canadian Press)

TORONTO, Dec. il-The mining market ticker tapped out an old- time tune today with trading swelling to the heaviest ‘ since last April and prices ad- vancing about two points in both ‘index classifications. Wide swings in the base metal issues featured the trading with the golds crowd- ing irto the spotlight late in the session. Traders appeared to bar- bor a notion that the conference at Ottawa would produce a fav- orable tax revision on gold pro- duction and they . reached for stocks with gusto in tho last hour. The gold index gained 2.20 to 119.- 22 and the miscellaneous mines in- dex advanced 2.21 to a new high for the year at 129.58.

After opening strong with prices up new highs. the base metal leaders run into a shower of pro- fit-taking and short-selling and before noon they cracked for sub- stantial losses. From a new high Falconbrldgc broke to 7.40 from which level it slowly‘ worked back to 8.05, closing with a net loss of ‘ 15 cents. Noranda held a gain of 3-8.

‘The drop of nearly a cent in the

some selling of Eldorado and the price weakened 8 to close at 1.35. Premier gained 5 and Castle '7.

Senior golds were more active than usual. McIntyre traded 4,400 shares and advanced to 39 3-4. Dome gained 2 1-4 to 44 1-4, and Lake Shore 8-4 to 58 1-2.

MARY DRAKE

(F. H. MacArthur)

_Withln sound of the murmuring mill-stream that threads its way across the sleeping meadow; n! Cornwall, and hard by the old schoolhouse where she and I often played in days gone by, Mary Drake sleeps tonight. p

A short distance from these hal- lowed scenes lie the familiar fields of her childhood home, and farther on the home to which she was token as a bride scarcely a decade ago. And now, for her, this is the end a? a Journey over the highway of

e.

No longer can the billowy storms of this world wrinkle that serene brow, spin silver threads among the dark. or cause tears to flow from eyes which angels have closed in death.

Tonight she lies under the bosom of her native land. and beside the silent fomis cf schoolmates gone before.

But I like to think of my late friend as one who is only asleep, that when the dewy-fingered Spring returns to deck her mound, she will be conscious of the sigh- ing breeze sweeping over her bier, of the melodious songs of the birds: of the beautiful flowers blossoming forth in all their glory; of the mur- muring mllistream that knowseso many secrets of the golden past.

Yes. I like to think that, because oi this heavenly music and he- cause of this happy picture-which she loved so well—my revered schoolmats is only asleep.
