Many Boys Are Now Preparing
To Leave For College.

It seems that more of our young people are
going off co College this year than before.
aud apparently THE GEORGIA-ALABAMA
BUSINESS COLLEGE-at Macon, Ga, is to ges
the majority % them.
This Is doubtless due to the practical, pains
taking methods Of instruction. which cause at
tendance there to result in the highest qualia-
cation IN certain employment.
Published reports show the College 70 have
over 500 graduates holding fine positions from
England tn the Philippines. some paying sal
aries running high into the thousands. The
high rank taken by these graduates makes the
demand from the business world for Others
much greater than can be supplied.

WALL STREET BUYING MAY AND JULY
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, Feb. 26.-An average amount
of business was reported today to the
general run of cotton goods in this
market. Prices were very firm for al
staple lines, and there were few oppor-
tunities in fancies for buyers to secure
off price lots. Print cloths were firm but
quiet. Mems wear wooden fabrics were
quiet. but without change in price.
Staple dress goods were firm for fall.
COTTON.
New York. Feb. 26.-The cotton market
opened steady with prices one point
higher to two points lower or about as
due on the news in hand. The Liverpool
cables lacked special feature. Port re-
ceipts piled up ominousy and the iu-
terror movement too, was liberal. Fu-
mors that some $4,000 March notices had
been put in circulation, also tended to
make the room contingent very cautious.
But soon after the opening a rush to
March options stimulated demand for the
latter months as well, and prices ad-
vanced very rapidly. AS against S.55 on
the call March climbed to $3.50 before
halt was called. The May option adj
vanced to S.51 and July to $50 these
prices subsequently proving to be on top
for the day. Reports that a prominent
Philadelphia concern was stopping" all
the notices and claims that Southern
spot markets were holding very firm,
were largely responsible for the sudden
show of strength. Liverpool quickly
stiffened up to conform with the wild
ness here, and Europe sent a goodly num-
Der of buying orders to their representa-
tives on this side. While there was some
slight reactions in the market later in
the day under fitful room selling for
profits, the general ruling Of the market
was firm with the close steady and net
to points higher. Wall Street and
commission houses were prominent buy
ers of the May and July contracts, while
room bulls picked UP stray lots of Au-
gust and October. Reports from spin
ming centers and the dry goods districts
were very reassuring. Total export
clearances were quite double the total
port receipts for the day.
