Keeping Up the White House.

President Wilson has been extreme
ly conservative in allowing expendi-
lures for the White House since he
has occupied 1t. and not dollar has
been expended, particularly since the
declaration OF war, thar could pos
sibly be avoided. Last year, however,
the walls In the state parlorS were re-
papered. but the same design OF wall
paper was kept In all OF the rooms
The handsome patriotic design OF the
blue held and stars, which was re-
stored In 1903, and which has been so
popular, still graces the walls of the
blue chambers. The rugs were ~
placed by new ones, while dainty new
curtains OF lace were hung under the
heavy draperies. All the furniture
has been rcupholstered I'm the same
pattern. These small renovations have
given to the first floor at the White
House very attractive appearance.

Referring Back TO the Cost Of Cotton
TO the South.
Cotton production has cost the
South all that have said and a vast
, amount more. The cost is so great
that 1t would require the Judgment OF
God Almighty to render decision
to what cotton has actually cost
the South. No mortal man can make
the estimate.
Henry Grady more than thirty-on
years ago delivered a speech in New
| England. which made a more lasting
| impression possibly on the country
than any one speech ever delivered
by any human being. The production
| or cotton in the South has prevented
| his prediction from coming true. He
| said in part:
When every farmer in the South
| shall eat bread from his own fields
and meat from his own pastures and
disturbed by no creditor. and enslaved
by no debt. shall sit amid his teemins
gardens, and orchards and vineyards.
and deiries and barnyards, pitching
his crop in his wisdom and grow ng

| and not at masters bidding-get-
ting his pay in cash and not in re-

debt. but does not restore his free
dom-then shall be breaking the full
ness of our day"
The cost Of production OF cotton in
the South has made the loyad Ameri.
