After a day of moderate activity,
cotton closed yesterday close around

at the first, but lost about half of
the initial gain before the close. The
opening was points lower to 2
point higher for the active months.
The market grew firmer until prices
were to IL points above the prev
ious close, buying orders coming into
the market The inevitable profit
taking in the afternoon sent values
off until prices were left very little
changed from the final for the day
before.
New York opened unchanged to Z
points lower, December being the
largest loser. An advance of several
points was made, after which prices
1uctuated narrowly, growing weaker
towards the close, which was steady,
/ point lower for December and jan
uary and / to 2 points higher for the
later positions, as compared with the
close for the day before. Spot prices
were unchanged. New Orleans open

2 points lower to points higher for
later months. The market advanced
several points and then eased off.

The national ginners' report was
promulgated yesterday, the figures
being 9.350,0O0 bales. The census
bureau will tissue its estimate to-

national ginners' was out today max
ing the amount ginned to December
IS, 9,350,000 bales and the writer
fails to see wherein should the gov
eminent confirm this report same
could possibly be bearish, as it
will show in comparison with last
years ginning to same date, short
age of 1,746,000 bales, and taking into
consideration that the average amount
ginned from this date to the end of
the season and the report cannot fig

Take advantage of this decline and

Sermon by Rev. ]. T. Kelly.

Rev. Joseph T. Kelly. pastor of the
Fourth Presbyterian Church, occupied his
pulpit yesterday morning and preached
from the text. II am among you as one
that serveth."
Rome. with her conquering armies" he
said, dominated the world. The literature
and estheticism Of Greece swayed the
realm of letters and art. Judaism was a
hierarchy. Jesus Christ introduced new
factor-service. The words Of the text de-
rive significance from the fact that He
was within a few hours of LIES close All
the sad and pitiable details of His taking
off were known to Him. In this crisis He
was speaking a word Of power to heart and
life Christs ideal for His church is the
word of ministering mind to mind. heart to
heart-spiritually and mentally-fllls this
ideal. Usage has degraded kingly word.
Service Is nothing mental. When inter-
preted by the God thought, there flashes
forth the gold of new life.
1.-The stimulus of service comes as a
fruitage when disassociated from the
motive OF reward-the acquisition OF some
thing for nothing or the mere Journalism OF
duty He who risks and expends life for
the sake Of his fellows did DR.. Carroll
in his quest for the yellow fever germ and
its antldotes. fulfilIs the law of loving serv
ice as expounded by Christ.
1.-The rewards of service are not manifest
to the dull eye. they ara internal in their
working. Money cannot recompense, but
there come development Of character and
Increased ability for doing. Some day there
shall flash upon the realization that God
was not unmindful of the labor Of love.
This thought should come as q trumpet call
to eager service.
