New Orleans La May 7.-lt has been
week OF cogitat!on rather than OF action
In the cotton market with prices hardly
moving. The extreme range of the new
crop months in the future market was only
eau points while that in the old crop was
l7a2o points. The net changes were ins!s-
nihcant where there were any May and
December finished at the exact level of last
weeks closing. while July showed a net
advance OF 3 points and October point
The developments Of the week can hardly
be said to have been evenly divided IN
their import. They were mainly bullish;,
During the first part of the week the bu
CLIQUE took up and paid for many million
dollars worth of spot cotton rendered on
MAY contracts; the weather and crop news
was unsatisfactory. and the statistics were
unexpectedly bullish. Against these figures
was The death OF the King of England
and this was not discounted in the marRet
for the reason that it occurred Friday
night, and saturday the cotton exchange
| was closed as mark of respect 10 the
! Kings memory.
| Favorable reports from any section OF
| tho belt were few and far between. ana
! the consensus OF opinion at the END OF the
week was that the crop was IN worse
! state than as the crop OF last season az
| this time. W1,tle many bears admitted THIS
thew commended that there was still plenty
| OF time for Improvement. In the spo. mar : :
| ket prices showed no change, mloohhs

The Truth About Concrete Shams
g.

- HAT our present day Is destined
tn TO be known as the cement age.
there Is little doubt II is an old
- saying that Necessity is the
kA16gWl mother Of inventions" and II
- is plainly evident that necessity
Is responsible for the creation and popu-
lartty Of the many forms of cement and
concrete construction. Fire the woodlands
axe and lumber combines and have caused
a steady increase In the price Of lumber
until it is almost as cheap to build a
masonry house today as frame one.
When one takes into consideration the saw
ing OF REPAIRS fuel and insurance
masonry house is by far the cheapest in
the long run. The attrsctveness OF a
cement covered house is admitted by all.
Every new form OF construction has its
shams which meet with popular approval
on account Of the money saved until time
proves their impracticabnity and actual
expensiveness in the long run. The stone
house has always been considered the
standard. To cheaper on the construction
of a stone house by a saving OF hauling
and labor bricks were first made. When
il became evident that they did not faith
fully Initiate, the idea Of imitation was
lost track Of and the proper and best
uses Of the material to obtain the best
results in construction and design we're ad-
hered 20. The next stone imitation was
terra Gotta. but this again failed to mi-
tate and today we are proud to build
terra Gotta buildings with no attempt to
make them look like stone ones The most
recent attempt to initiate stone has brought
out the concrete blocks, but they smack
so much imitation Of stone that their use
as an imitation of stone is impossible to
a, bn
bility OF the concrete blocks well made
is unquestioned, but they should be made
in patterns adapted to the material for as
a satisfactory imitation of rock faced stone
they are a total failure. When used in
this manner they become one of the many
concrete shams and bear discredt as such
which reflects on the real value Of the
concrete blocks for It is a first class
building material from structural stand
point
Experience has proven that we cannot
successfully initiate a native material from
mother earth. Cut glass is one Of the fine
arts still the most adept at II cannot sue
cessfully initiate diamond. Build concrete
houses and foundations, but use smooth or
paneled faced blocks and so not attempt
to deceive the public into thinking that you
have built of stone. A sham will always
show itself, either at once or in time. No
maiden has ever been able to paint the
transparent bloom Of health upon her cheek
80 that 1t could not be detected, and all
the arts OF the beauty specialists cannot
keep back the signs OF age The Almighty
intended this to be a real world for real
things and real people, and he invariably
puts his stamp OF disapproval upon all
shams or limitations by exposing them.

W. ]. Bryan Comes to an Omaha

Two men entered the Paxton hotel at the

q shoe drummer from Cincinnati, Halt
a dozen men in the lobby saluted him. The
clerk reached forward, grasped his hand
and vouchsafed the cheerful information:
Yea we have saved YOU room with
bath" In short. Il was obvious that IN
and around the Paxton, the Cincinnati shoe
drummer is o person OF some consequence.

registered waited meekly until there WAS

Then no drew a pen from the we'll jabbed

'W ]. Bryan. Lincoln"
Nobody cheered Not a neck was craned.
There was not even a fluiter OF interest
manifest IN the hotel lobby The clerk
nopehalantly assigned Mr.. Bryan TO a room.
A bell boy carried his travel stained hand
bag upstairs and the man who. magnet
like. once drew thousands In his wake, en-
tered the elevator and was whisked away
to bed while an admiring throng gathered
about the shoe drummer in the hotel grill

the new bank building will arise, is un

across from this one.

The United States National bank will

To make this arrangement possible q syn

the Peoples Store now occupies. Ihe
sum OF $4,000 has been paid for this and
the deed has been executed.

popular form Of sham construction.
Most cement stucco houses, built over ten
years ago, have been recoated to fill in
the cracks or need this remedy, and some
have been stripped OF the cement veneer
entirely While familiarity with this ma
teria has brought out new methods which
guard against a repetition Of some OF the
first mistakes II is the writer's prophesy
that there viii be far less numbers of ce-
ment stucco houses put up in 1880 than
there was in 1910, unless present methods
are greatly changed, and that very few of
the houses erected in the last year will
have their original cement coatngs on in
1925, unless the cement has been applied to
a solid masonry foundation. This is a
very sweeping prophesy, but facts at pres
