Must Learn to FORGET

To be successful in life the college wom-
an must forget whatever laurels she NAV
have gained in school and seek fresh
laurels in the line of work she selects
says Prof. Arthur o. Norton, instructor
in education in Wellesley college says
the Kansas City Star
In seeking the favorable consideration
of prospective employers she must neither
underrate her qualifications or faunt the
diploma which may or may not prove her
intrinsic WORTH Professor Norton says.
There are many little things which
make up an attractive personality which
is most essential in securing employment.
The young woman who leaves college TO
face the world must remember that in
the walks of life she elects to follow
there are many workers who have not
had the advantage of a college education,
yet who know far more about the partic-
ular work selected than any college grad
uate fresh from her books
Il am speaking more particularly about
those who expect to become teachers, vet
the principle involved applies to any other
class of employment seekers.
Much depends upon the first appIica :
ton for work. The letter which reaches
a superintendent of schools or other en-
ployer must be impressively written, care
fully phrased and we'll constructed. There
must be no errors Of spelling or gram

that failed altogether to indicate the real
ability of the applicant. The woman who
IS to teach others must herself show the
result of her training
THE road to success is long and ardu-
Gus, filed with, obstacles which she little
expected. Her knowledge will, of course
be an aid to her in overcoming many of
these. but the fact remains that she is
absolutely on her own footing.
THE girl who considers her success as
sured upon leaving college will surely find
to her sorrow that there are many essen
tials to her career that the curriculum
of college has not supplied"

Oxen as Policemen

Whatever ones views may be in
regard to bull lighting, there is one
feature of the national sport Of Spain
which is particularly interesting to the
visitor and sightseer, says Tit-Eits. The
bulls for the arena are usually kept
in large paddocks. wild and unfettered
for, as Sir Albert Rollit, who has
visited one of these paddocks near Se-
vile, says. "The animals know nothing
of ropes or chains during their life
time"
1t is a dangerous business however,
entering these paddocks. Sir Albert
stood some 80 PAGES from the bulls,
and in his interesting letter describing
the scene, published in Country Life"
says; I'VE entered with our lives in
our hands"
The bulls, however, are kept in order
by a Gordon of tame oxen, which, If a
bull attempts to escape, at once pre-
vents 1t doing so, acting skilfiully and
effectively -as species of bovine
police. The night before the spec

the reply was that occasionally bull

not seem to be regarded as matters OF

popularity of the national amusement
At times many of the aristocracy and
others of both sexes ride on horseback

COTTON MARKET
ACTIVE But NERVOUS
Midday Reactions RecOv-
cred and Prices Make
New High Records

New York, August 2S.-The cotton
market showed continued activity and
extreme nervousness during today's
trading but midday reactions We're re-
covered and prices made new high
records later on renewal of aggres-
sive bull support which seemed to be
partly inspired by reports from Wash
ington that the cotton futures bill was
likely to be materially modified in the
Senate by a reduction in the proposed
tax. Bulish private condition figures
contributed To the advance of October
contracts which. sold at f2.42, or sT65
per bale above the low, level of two
weeks ago. Closing prices were a
shade off from the best under realizing
but the final tone was firm at net
decline of points on August. while
September was points higher and
later months were 10 to "a points above
last nights closing figures Higher Liv-
erpool cables than expected larger
English spot sales, and bullish re-
views of the Texas and Oklahoma crops
We're responsible for firm opening. First
prices were 8 points higher on August
and from II TO "a points higher on
other months and active positions sold
Is to "a points net higher right after
the call. The official forecast for unset
tied weather and scattering showers in
the southwest encouraged some selling
for reaction while there was also heavy
realizing at the adv&hce, and the mar
ket broke rather sharply during the mid
die of the day. Further reductions in
the local stock did not help August,
which sold % points net lower under
a little scattering liquidation and later
months eased off to within few points
of last nights final. The buying fol-
lowing the better reports from Wash
ington was more active and appeared to
be more confident than previously since
the beginning of the upward move
ment, however, and 1t was also rumored
that there was an increased trade de-
mand. A private crop report made the
condition 71.5 against 82.7slast month.

BUSINESS QUIET
ON MORRIS AVENUE
Another Shortage in Snap
per Reported-Shrimp
and Oysters Sell Well

Business on Morris avenue yesterday
was fair. No change in quotations was
noted but the general tone of the mar
ket is firm.
Snapper is reported scarce again II
is said that the market is practically
denuded of this fish. New shipments
will in all likelihood arrive within the
next two or three days and relieve the
situation. shrimp and oysters continue
to sell fast. Shipments are received al
most daily and the demand keeps right
up to the supply.
In the produce market business was
said to be rather quiet yesterday. QUO.
tations are unchanged, however.
Although there was no change regis
tered in poultry prices yesterday it is
said that a rise is imminent. 1t is pre-.
dicted that chickens will advance 10 points
within the next 10 dayl. The demand
is fair and the supply in keeping. Eggs
are firm with a rising tendency.

Liquidation of September corn began
early, lower cables and talk that the
stock Of cash corn is rapidly increasing
giving an impetus to bearish sentiment.
This dominated the market in spite OF
continuance of warm. dry weather in the
southwestern belt. No attempt was made
by the bulls to rally the market until
near the close when on reports that 6O0,-
900 bushels Of corn had been engaged
for export prices stffened. The uplft
was not strong enough to overcome pre-
vailing bear spirit, however, and values
soon settled again. the close being at Or
near the low point of the day.
Wheat showed conditions similar to
corn. Liquidation of September bringing
about general weakness. Lower cables
and favorable weather In the Canadian
northwest, where harvest is in full swing

more than 565,000 bushels for export check

about quick reaction.

Liverpool became excited today over
the continued drouth, spinners called
cotton freely, increasing the sales
while the trade bought heavily in the
future market.
This market opened at about rs
points up to meet a large amount of
profit taking sales that kept pricos
fluctuating within a range of IL points
until late in the afternoon when an
other demand appeared based on re-
duced crop estimates and complaints
from Alabama.
Many conservative merchants re-
duced their holdings after an advance
of over cent a pound before the holi-

no change in the fundamental condi-
lions of deteriorating crops and in
