One of the lirst lessons that the
Cotton Association should leain Is
accuracy. Some Very wild statements
come out from its headquarters in Co
11 lmbia soiie times and that explaiins
why farmer agitations have so little
effect on the cotton markets. Wall
Street expects Southern claims as to
cotton to be exaggerated. And Wall
Srtreet is piretty wise.

vaded homes were set free, and human
liberty was saved from destruction.
The principles which our forefathers
fought to establish, the heroic dead
who lie here fought to maintain, and
their ideals have brought our gift to
the old world. But beyond this our
own people through these sacrifices
gained much honor as individuals and
as a nation. There is given us a
more lofty conception of the grandeur
of human liberty and with it a distinct
vision of a better world. To realize
this fully the foundations of society
must. he laid deeper and the structure
more firmly built.
"Tie times demand of us clearness
in thought and firmness in action. The
solidity of our nation must be the
bulwark against incidious and de
structive tendencies. The glory of our
independence must remain the leaven
and our flag the emblem of all that
free men love and cherish. Strenigt h
ened by the practical test of war and
with an abiding faith in the Almighty,
let its he sieadfast in upholding the
itntegrit.iy of our traditions, as a gu ide
to fitire generations at h1omiie and a
beacon o all Who are oppressed.
"i is especially given the soldier to
know etearly the price of liberty.
'T'liose to whom America pays tribute

vigor of their youth. They left their
homes etncouIra "'d by beloved ones
who remained behind. As they went
to battle they were united with a holy
inspiration, realizing theiir miglhty task
and their obligations to tlir country
id th(ey fought with unparalleled
stoicism an( determination.
"We saw enthusiasm and confidence
carry them on with irresistible force.
We saw them at Cantigny and again
at Chateau Thierry, at St. 31thiel and
on this historic fleld in the decisive
battle of he war.
"We can again see them yonder
moving forward as they steadily ad
vance across the shell torn field under
withbering fire. They cheer and gal
lantly chargne the enemy's strong po
sitions. Thy put iini to flight in the
shock of arms. Onward, ever onward,
they go tlrough weary days and sleel
less n1ghIs of continuous str uigle, on
to the final great victory.
"We weep today over thIiei r graves

Antiquity of Gloves.
Gloves are of great antiquity, having
been worn in England as long ago as

styles of gloves has been in their dec

adorned with jewels, 15 having been
