as frivolous, indicating lack OF seri-
Gus purpose in life. There are parents
who rcbuke their children because
they want 10 have fun and 20 in for a
good time. says Success Magazine
These parents have yet TO learn the
great part which fun and humor play

HI COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-The cotton
market opened steady at unchanged
prices to a decline of 1 point and then
firmed up on aggressive Wall Street
buying and covering with prices dur
ing the middle of the morning about
4 to Z points net higher. Business was
active and general. Gables were
poorer than due and the amount of
cotton reported ginned to November l
was heavier than for any of the three
preceding years, but the figures were
Under rather than over local expecta-
ton.
The market continued very active
late in the forenoon, and ruled very
firm on heavy Wal Street buying and
scattering bull support, with May con-
tracts making a new high record for
the season at S.95 or IA points net
higher. Other months sold 9 to IL
points higher.
