High School Attendance Urged

Little Rock, August L. J. l.. Bond, state supervisor of rural schools, is writing a personal let ter to all pupils who received common school promotion cer- tificates during the year, urging them to begin now planning to attend the next term of school. He says:
 Tn many districts of the state the people are working to build up strong country schools that will be able to offer high school advantages to all pupils who are ready for this higher work and this may be the case in your district. l hope that you are planning to attend high school during the next session of school-you can't afford to stop your school work where you are at present. You should at least be satisfied with nothing less than a good high school course.
 "You should, of course, con- tinue your work in your home school if possible to do so. But if you cannot do this, you should plan to attend some good high school somewhere near your home."

Washington, D. C., July 31.- The Department of Agriculture's S bureau of crop estimates amour ced today that the condition of cotton crop on July 25, reported at 76.4 per cent of a normal, forecasts a yield of about 13,- 850,000 bales of 300 pounds gross weight.
 This is the first time the gov ernment has officially announced a forecast of the cotton crop be- fore December.
 The area planted to cotton and under cultivation on June 25 this year, as previously re- ported, was 36,960,000 acres, a decrease of 498,00O acres, or Is per cent, from that under culti- cultivation on June 25 last year A condition of 100 per cent of a normal on July 25 would be equivalent to a yield of 234.1 pounds of cotton to the acre, the bureau of crop estimates has an- nOunced.
 Weather conditions generally have been favorable to the crop throughout the month except in the western part of the belt where lack of rain and high temperatures caused late cotton to suffer severely.

that the $50 sheets OF single spaced
typeyriting cost the government at
least $1,000, probably more. 1t could
not be sent in code because 1t was
chiefly the names of Americans
abroad, their addresses and the
amounts that mad been deposited with
the government here for their relief
