 A Prediction Justified
 In mid winter. William P. G. Harding, who is one of the members of the federal reserve board at Washington, delivered an address at Baltimore in which he made reference to the unparalleled situation in the cotton growing industry of the south, and in which also he spoke with words of promise and prophecy respecting the outlook for this industry MT. Harding spoke as one having authority. When he was appointed member of the federal re- serve board business men of finance all over the country spoke of the appoint ment as especially fortunate because there probably could have been found in the south no man better qualified both from the point of view of Knowledge of the cot ton industry and from that of the rela- ton of ii to southern finance and banking than MT. Harding. How vital this agri- cultural industry is to the prosperity of | the United States was pointed out at Baltimore by MT. Harding as it had been earlier in a most sensa tlonal way-using the word sensational in it's best and proper i mca ning--by Festus J. Wade of St Louis and others who undertook to organize a pool of s135 900 900 upon which the southern ! planters could fix their eyes and theii hope More than $1O0 0O0,000 of this pool was subscribed to.
 | Some of the predictions intimated by MT 1 Harding in his address are near the close of the present fiscal year found to be accurate. It was as he asserted. the I largest crop of cotton ever raised which the. southern planters harvested from theiI
 fields in 1914. It was so large that it was inevitable that there would be some de preciation of the price per pound.
 Gradually with the earnest and cordia ! cooperation of southern bankers but i without recourse to. the cotton pool, ths | planters began to relieve themselves ot the endorsements occasioned by the war How great these cmbarra ssinents were a first is shown by the figures which have
 come from Washington Of the exports i, nNe months. which were about one-hal lof the exports in similar period of tn,
 year before. But it was in December tha
 the effect of increased exports began te
 ne Felt. And since January 1 of this yea the Increase in price of cents pount or approximately sl5 bale had been made exports Increased enormously and tn,
 American textile manufacturers began f,
 pus heavily, so that by May 1 their pur
 chases were only 10o,c00 bales les sthan lik purchases last year. This is an extraordI
 nary change although MT. Harding ap , parently viewed it in mid winter as an,on the possibilities.

The initial service is held the ev-

its observance. Services will be con-

Atonement is not for selfish privacles
! it is for moral uplift by which shf

One phase of the ritual of the da!
is the thought and memory OF th'

that has come into his career through
