Little Rock, Ark, August 1s.-Estt- mates of cotton crop of not to exceed Il, ,50o00O bales, with prospects of further deterioration because of drouth condi- tons. were made at a meeting of agri- cultural commissioners and cotton men of five states held here today. States rep resented were Arkansas, Alabama, Tex as, Tennessee and Oklahoma. The meet ing was called by F. M. Gault. Oklahoma agricultural commissioner. It was de- cided that because of the certainty of a short crop, there is no necessity of ask ing aid in financing the marketing of the crop other than that which can be fur nished by the states. The conference will recommend that export bills of lading be restored and that movements of cotton between transportation concentration points be by carload lots

CANTEEN WORKERS THANKED

The following letter has been received by the Red Cross department of The Age-Herald and will be of interest to the canteen workers:
 Camp Shelby Miss, August II, 191s
 TO the Red Cross canteen workers of Birmingham, all praise and respect Had 1t not been for the Birmingham girls hos. pitable reception and kindness the Gull man drafted men of Tuesday, July s, would have had a rather dreary trip to Camp Shelby.
 Nowhere during our entire trip of 22 hours did we get reception, with the exception of the one rendered us at Bir- mingham, and that word is written deep in the heart of each and everyone of us, as haven of rest and kindness not at all speaking of drinks, smokes, cards, stamps and other things.
 Army life is not all pleasure, but the thought of Birmingham puts a silver lining in all of our dark clouds. for it proves that we are well backed, and here's hoping that we have the oppor- tunity to bid the 'Pittsburg of the South a hearty farewell on our way from here over there.'

Boy, Page MT Noah Webster and See If He Can Tell Us What Lot of These New Words and Expressions Mean That Have Sprung Up Over Night Since the War Began

Malcolm and his army cut the boughs from off the Birnam wood, and march ing stealthily, concealed behind them, approached the castle without Mac beth knowing it; and no better exam pie of camoufage ever existed than just that bit of Shakesperean subter- fuge.
 Camouf1age is regarded as one of the highest arts of modern warfare and the camoufieurs (the men engaged in it) are regarded as among the most ex- pert men in the armies. It may not be generally known, but a company of camoufeurs has been in training since the early stages of the war, composed or painters, sculptors and architects; many well known names have been numbered in this company, among them Lieut.. Homer St. Gaudens, a son- of the- great American sculptor. These men are conducting experiments in colora- lion and have achieved some notable work What the camouheur fears more than the eye of the enemy is his ca mera, for many objects which would cheat the eye are very visible to the photographic plates, and with this knowledge the camouf1ueur is working so as to be able to defy the camera.
 It was Abbott Thayer, the painter, who discovered the law of protective coloration in the animal Kingdom. He differed with Darwin on the subject. declaring to the world that natures gift of color to the wild animals enabled them to disappear quickly from the sight of their enemies, and what eyer-y- body knows is that mans best teacher in the art of deceiving the eye is na- ture herself.
 The French during this great world war have gotten the art of camouflage down to a fine point. They deserve the credit not only for the word itself but the deed. And this is natural. for to the French, as a nation, we ascribe a quickness and readiness far more perfectly developed than we do to the heavier, bulkier. less agile-minded Teu- ton.

 The ordinary English soldier whose vocabulary wasn't any longer than a hair pin at home before he went lover there' has added a big bunch of words to it now-some French, but a lot of them real nice new English words Anglacized French. maybe--but they "go' just the same.
 We are all soldiers and civilians alike-quck to adopt new words and new phrases-not always "sIang" eith- CT. If they strike our ears with particu- lar force we employ them immediately. Maybe they are of foreign origin-maybe not-but we take them unto our hearts just the same, wherever they come from, and we, use them to our hearts content!
 Many of the words used in the best circles have come to us from the French indeed we owe much to the French in the way of language--for even be- fore the war our indebtedness to this nation was enormous for such words as automobile, garage. chauffeur-al1 these coming in one big lump via France; and, to go further, we have coined no better word of our own for the shelter of our airshps than "hanger!'
 Of course the one word that has oc- cupied the center of the stage since the war began is friend camoufage;" for merly almost unknown before the war, it is now one of the most familiar lit tie words we have, either on the tongue or in the newspapers. While it seems an awfully young little word and terri bly, new, and all that, still if we look back bit, say, for instance, to Mac beth,' we realize that Shakespeare (who knew everything) had a knowl- edge of camouflage. whether he used
