 Dave is 25 years old, and carries a cane
 He's unmarried, but likes the pretty girls, rumor sayeth.
 Some day, maybe, the young man will be king of Great Britain, emperor of the British empire, and have as much power as an assistant office manager when the boss is on the job.
 Dave is no Adonis. He'd be down near the bottom in a male beauty show, but he has a nice collection of names, Edward, Albert, Christian, George, Andrew, Patrick David Wind sor. His olo mans name used to be Victim, but the war made that Ger man name unpopular in England and the king had it changed
 One thing Dave can't do and that is play baseball. Tried it one day last summer, when American soldiers in England were trying to give him a good time, but he famed every time at bat, and muffed every ball thrown to him. That's what happens to a fellow. when his family insists on train ing him to be king.

Decreased Receipts Bring

Good Grades.

Receipts OF cotsDn In Memphis for
the year ending Thursday, according to
the annual statement OF Henry Hotter
secretary OF the Cotton Exchange, were
the smallest since the season of 1sl2-l8.
