HEFLIN IS ENTHUSIASTIC.
I Alabama Congressman Sees Big Jump
in Cotton Prices.
Giving it as his opinion that there
will undoubtedly be a very large
jump in the price of cotton next
spring, if not before, Senator Heflin,
of Alabama, a member of the senate
committee on agriculture, and a well
posted cotton expert, has made the
following statement:
"We have consumed and exported
more than eleven millon bale*, of cotton
since July 1920. The southern
cotton mills have made heavy, inroads
on the low grade cotton produced in
1920. The cotton of that crop now re
I maining unsold is mostly high grade
I cotton.
"The cotton crop this year will be
H in the neighborhood of seven million
bales. April, May, June and July of
next year will see 'tie smallest supply
of and the greatest demand for
American cotton that the world has
witnessed in a long time, Germany's
demand for American cotton is growIing
in leaps and bounds. Germany is
out after a very large part of the
world's cotton goods trade. One of
the largest cotton producers in the
United States is now in Germany arranging
for the direct sale of American
cotton to German interests.
"The War Finance Corporation announces
that negotiations for advanc
ces to finance agricultural products
for export sale are approaching completion
as follows: 'Oklahoma Cotton
Growers association, 200,000 bales of
cotton; Texas Farm Bureau Cotton
association, 300,000 bales of cotton'
"The small crop, the increasing demand
and the aid furnished the cotton
producer by the War Finance
Board is bound to advance cotton
prices."
The Astute Agriculturist.
We begged the honest farmer man
with warm solicitation, to please reluctantly
consent to take the nomination.
"Oh, leave," we cried, "'your
sunburt toil and worthy occupation,
and in the sounding halls of state
. take your predestined station. The
office e'er should seek the man," we
said, in apt quotation. "It's come
. here now a-seeking you; accept congratulation!
Forget'your flocks, ignore
your herds, leave -them without
ration. Like Cincinnatus from the
plow stand forth to save the nation?
You are a gent who has the knack of
loud vociferation. That's all you
ever need to have to win this elevation.
The time is ripe for some young
man with some wild agitation to lead
the folks who have no sense but
great imagination."
"Nay, nay!" the farmer man replied
"I have a reputation for honor,
decency and skill, in this way occupation.
I have no gab to spread abroad,
no loud transplavica-tion. Go to, go to,
and keeD right on plumb to your des
tination. I would not be an honorable,
and mess in legislation. To be
an honest farmer is my only aspira.
tion."
F&tal Mistake.
The lady bather had got into a
hole and she couldn't swim. Nor
could the young man on the end of
the pier; but when she came up for
(the first time and he caugh; sight of
her face, he could shriek, and he did.
He shrieked:
"Help!"
A burly fisherman sauntered to his
side.
"Wot's up?" he asked.
"There!" hoarsely cried the young
man. "My wife! Drowning! I
can't swim! A hundred dollars for
you if you can save her."
In a moment the burly fisherman
was in the sea. In another he was
out of it, with the rescued lady bather.
Thanking his lucky stars, he ap
proached tne young man again.
"Well, what about the hundred
bones?" he asked.
But if the young man's face had
been ashen gray before, now it was
dead white, as he gazed upon the features
of the uncovered dame.
"Y-e-s, I know!" he gasped. "But
when I made the offer I thought it
was my wife who was drowning; and
now?now it turns out it was my
wife's mother!"
The burly fisherman pulled a long
face. "Just my luck," he muttered,
thrusting his hand into his trousers
pocket. "How much do I owe you?"
?Chicago Daily News.
Her Only Fault.
"Well, I'll tell you," confessed the
would-be seller of a second-hand
TTnntin' Nanny. "There is just one
thing the matter with this ear.
'Twasn't for that she'd be just about
perfect. That is. when you step on
the predicator, pull the alleviator and
push the pessimist, it takes her a
little too long to make up her mind
whether you mean for her to backup
or go ahead. And that's kind of annoying."
"I gezzo," answered the prospective
purchaser.
PROS AND COXS OF BOBBED HAIR
Some People Taking Question Seriously?Different
Opinions.,
New York.?Some people have be-1
gun taking bobbed hair seriously.
A few of them, apparently believing
that the absence of long tresses
outside the head leaves the impression
that something is lacking within,
have informed the world that bobbed
hair and business efficiency don't
mix. Several railroad offices have
taken the same position as the Chicago
department store which notified
its feminine employees that they must
either let their hair grow out or be
let out themselves, and all manner of
people are carrying the controversy
to that good old domestic forum?
the free-for-all column in the newspapers.
And here are some of the things
they wrote the editors:
"Bobbed hair girls may not be
vapid and silly, we don't say they are,
but you can't get around the fact that
they look that way. And, naturally,
a girl that appears frivolous is not
wanted in business even though she
may actually be serious minded."
"Girls have a right to wear their
hair any way they see fit, so long as
it appears neat and respectable, and
only vapid and silly person would
think for one minute that because the
hirsute adornments were short and
snappy, the owner was frivolous."
"Bobber hair is just one of those
foolish fads that that crazy crew down
in Greenwich village started. The
women around the -country really
ought to know better than to imitate
-them, but you know how young girls
are?they like to take up new things,
and you can't tell them anything.
Maybe the offices that are putting a
man on bobbed hair will teach them a
lesson?goodness only knows, -they
need it."
"Bebbed hair is just one of those
It is the most sensible way for business
girli to wear it. They don't
keep looking at the mirror all the
time, and -it gives them a chance to
type a letter all the way from the
'replying to your letter' to the 'we
' beg to remain' without having to fidget
around trying to keep strands
from tockling the ears or blowing in
the eyes."
"I don't know what this younger
generation is thinking about. No girl
with any claim to being serious minded
would consider for a minute that
bobbing her hair improved her apnparjinne.
I alwavs say that if the
Lord had intended for the women ,to
have short hair He would have made
them that way: It's just one of
those fads, though, and there is no
use worrying about it?the girls will
soon get over it and come back to
their senses."
"Certainly the girls of our day
dress more sensibly than our mothers
did, and bobbed hair is one of the
most sensible parts of their appearance.
It is cooler and more comfortable,
and you don't have to stop work
every few minutes to do it up. It
requires only a few minutes attention
each day and always looks fresh and
neat-, and this gives a girl more time
for serious reading and things. Reformers
that are always criticising
everything new get on my nerves. If
some of these men had ever been
with long hair, they would think
x 1~ ~ o ronn cr
iwice utjiui t; u > mg iu iui iuv v >_/
girls how to dress." .
And so it goes. >
In Xew York the anti-bobs have
confirmed their campaign against abbreviated
coiffures to writing their
opinions and talking about them. A
few personal directors of large concerns
have said, with the precaution
of requesting that their names not be
used, that they were seriously considering
regulations against bobbed
haired types. But this is as far as
the matter has gone.
Some of the masculine employers
gave up hope of regulating it when
they learned that the girls could easily
fool them. With a few rubber
hanri<i a rnnnle of switches, some
hair pins and a comb the girls can
camouflage their bobbed hair during
the business hours so that it looks
prudently Victorian.
Hurt While Out Hunting.
Cope, Sept. 15.?While on a squirrel
hunt recently with Carl Gibson
and W. Clark, Magistrate G. E. Griffith
while running to keep in sight of
a squirrel stepped in a low place, lost
his balance, and fell sideways on his
left arm dislocating the elbo'w, and
fracturing the smaller bone just below
the elbow. He straightened as
best he could, blew a horn for his
companions, and was soon after taken
to Dr. Mobley's hospital, where an
x-ray was taken, and the arm properly
bandaged. Mr. Griffith is suffering
considerable pain, but is getting
along nicely considering the seriousness
of the dislocation.
