The thoughtfulness and generosity
of Archie Miller was again shown last
night when he had as his guests the
forty older children of the School for

Some of the children had read the

so they were prepared to enjoy the
picture to the full. They certainly
appreciate MI. Miller's kindness.

gloomy period of wet weather that
came in the midst of the growing
and gathering seasons and continued
throughout the year. Also. the price
has been ii great deal better than was
hoped for. and. OH the whole. most Of
our cotton farmers are not SO badly
