cnLnEsT on THE SEASON.

Yesterday was the coldest day of
the fall, the thermometer registering
20 degrees. This is probably a rec
ord-breaker for so early in the seas
on.
The present Geld snap has been
prolonged. Last Fridav a tempera-
ture of 25 degrees was recorded, and
Saturday and Sunday were cold, and
the last named day quite disagreeable-
Monday was also cold and cloudy,
and Tuesday was ushered in with a
temperature Of 90 degrees. This
morning the mercury registered %
degrees.

lllS BALES COTTON MORE
GINNED THAN LAST YEAR

According to the figures supplied
by County Gin Statistician Fife, there
were 1921 bales Of cotton ginned to
Nov. this year. Last year to the
same date there We're 2153 bales GIN
ned. This shows an increase over last
year of 111S bales.
We believe the total crop of 1919
was about $500 bales, but little more
than the number bales ginned to
Nov. LIST this year. The indications
are that there win be 4500, possibly,
5000 bales gathered in the county this
season.

Late King $ Hope,
: He Told Barber

G. Valentin, barber to the late
King Edward, George V, the Prince
Of Wales, can take rank as a diplo-
mat. since he once got a secret from
the prince.
Valentin has been forced to cult
the royal household and come to
America for his health, but when
still in Marlborough House the
golden-haired. bonny Prince of
Wales, then known as Master Ed
ward, often confided in him.
In those days the prince was very
much opposed to becoming q king.

king, for I've heard that II spoils
ones life. and I do not want 70 have
my life spoiled, as my brother Az
bert and I have arranged to choose
our own vocations in llfe."
What that ambition was the
young prince refused to disclose,
until one day. he asked the barber
about a hair tonic. wanting TO know
IL he made II himself. valentin said
he did, and that its composition was
one OF his iife's secrets. which he
would never tell.
Master Edward then suggested
they swap secrets" which resulted
in the prince telling how he and his
brother planned to become cab
drivers on the Strand. 50 they could
wear high hats and shining boots.
