COTTON DECLINES
AFTER GOOD START
Liverpool Becomes Active Seller
Following Buying at Opening.
Market Nervous
NEW YORK. .Juuc .,


Lack Of moisture west of the Mississippi
RIVER and a bearish crop report by the
journal OF Commerce caused a firm tone
az the cotton opening today, but business
Sas comparatively limited.
The market turned easier as soon as the
hrst batch Of buying orders had been ex-
e'uted on the opening advance Of II to %
nolntS and broke sharply before the end Of
the first hour. The feature on the early
advance had been Liverpool buying, pre-
sumnhy to undo straddles but Liverpool
was an active seller later, with October de-
Clining to 26.16 and active months gener-
ally about 26 to 90 points under last nights
close.
Offers then became better and the market
showed rallies Of, several points after II
o'clock
Offerings were very light in the after
noon and the purchase Of several thousand
bales of October by a large spot firm led
to recovery from the forenoon low level
OF about 40 points. Aside from this buying
there was no feature to the trade

At LAST BANGING HAS
COME INTO IT'S OWN

COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 1S.-At
last! Dancing has come into its own.
For years it's borne the burden OF
blame for thousand and one afflic-
tions. Tango foot" fallen arches, loss
Of weight and scores of other ailments
have been laid at the door of the
dance.
But now comes Miss Florence A
Myer, head of the department OF phy-
steal education at Ohio state unlVers7
ity. who is an advocate of the dance
especially the esthetie dance, which is
an instant cure, she says for the
nervous girl who jumps at every souno
and the slouchy, carefree type OF girl
who is affected by nothing.
The combination of the physical eX-
ercise and the mental stress Of re-
membering the different steps is wona-
erful for the nerves" said Miss Myer
Those who formerly startled at ever!
little sound can bear almost any shocS
now"
