Predictions of a cold wave In the
southwest led to II more active demand
for cotton today and the market was
strong. Trade was broader. and there
was lively covering by shorts.
Indications of low temperatures in the
western belt tended to emphasize the
bulllsh view of yesterdays ginning fig
ures and the technical position favored
the rise. Moreover. buyers had the en-
couragement of bullish spot news col
ored to some extent by an absence of
hedging.
. There were some limited selling orders
which finally checked the advance.
Freight brokers said that there was
no new local business in the staple for
export shipment.
Prices oased slightly toward tho close

Harrisburg Academy Opens
When Quarantine Lifts

Glasses at the Harrisburg Academy
met this morning for the first time IN
five weeks when the influenza pan
first became operative. Added to the
resumption of all it's scholastic ana
r~ecreational routine m the intro
duction to-day of the military system
of training at the Academy. The
working out of this idea is eagerly
looked forward to by those interested
in the Academy and from to-day on
partisans of military instruction Will
have q chance to see how the thing
operates at the popular institution OF
learning.
Quite unoffcially, football practice
has been going on for some time,
though the full squad has not been
together for more than three times.
At to-morrow's scrimmage. Coach
Rudisill expects to have his fun
squad out for practice at the grid
iron period. A football game for next
Saturday is in process of arrange
ment by Manager Loose. Most of the
students who went home during the
influenza epidemic, have returned,
while all the professors who have been
out of town for a similar reason are
back at their posts. Whether or not
the three vacations at Thanksgiving,
Christmas and spring Will be cut TO
enable the students to make up the
time lost during their enforced a
off, is problematical.

Churches to Open With
Prayer Services Tonight

Virtually every church in the city
will have prayer services this even
ing as a result of the lifting of the
closing ban due to the influenza cpl
demic. These services will be the first
regular public meetings of a religious
nature TO be held for the past five
weeks.
Religious workers throughout the
city have made preparations to under
take their kork agaiR with renewed
energy attire the period of the quaran-
tine. Church societies and auxiliaries
are planning to do more than their
usual share of cooperating in religi-
Gus work.
In connection with such plans.
church societies, and especially young
peoples societies in the city are lay
ing their plans and making prepare
| tions for work during the winter
months to come. 1t is thought that
the closing of the churches has
brought church workers to a realiza-
| ton more than ever of the import
ance of such plans for the coming
months.
1t is generally expected that the
| services throughout the city tonight
will have large congregations in at
tendance.

THE SORE THROAT
Of SPANISH
INFLUENZA

One of the frequent complica-
tons of Spanish Influenza is sore
throat. 1t is important the sore
throat be given prompt attention
and relieved.
The throat is the gateway to the
body. The air we breathe, the food
we a and the water we drink all
pass through it. 1t is the great
breeding ground for germs and thfs
is especially true when it is sore or
inflamed. If it is kept clean. dis
cas- germs have small chance to
propagate and do their deadly work.
Authorities agree Spanish Influ-
enza is a germ disease and that pre-
ventive measures should be taken.
They advise the use of an effective
gargle to keep the throat clean and
healthy. For this purpose Tonsiline,
The National Sore Throat Remedy,
is ideal. 1t is also used as a spray
and taken pure.
The wonderful increase in the
sale of Tonsiline during the last few
weeks shows that many thousands
of families are making extra use of
Tonsiline during this epidemic to
quickly relieve the often . accom-
panying sore throat and as a pre-
ventive measure.
Don't wait until you have influ-
enza and sore threats in the house
but get your bottle of Tonsiline from
your druggist now for use as a pre-
ventive gargle and also to be ready
to relieve sore throat upon its FIRST
appearance.
For more than 20 years the sale
of Tonsiline has steadily and rap
idly increased. The favor shown it
by American people gives it the
right to the title. The National Sore
Throat Remedy.
