FACTORY LEAGUE
MEET TONIGHT
Industrial Athletic League
Plans Will be Discussed by
Factory Representatives.

An important meeting of repre-
sentatives of the various factories
located in this city will be held in
the Y. NJ. c. A. tonight with Ply
steal Director Schuyler c. Pew for
the purpose of discussing an indus
trial athletic league which will in
terest all employees. This meeting
is being called for the purpose of
discussing and considering all sug-
gestions and is not for the purpose
of pushing any n particular sport.
basketball or bowling for instance.
The organization of the employees
of industries in other industrial eli
ties is being pushed to the limit
with financial and moral backing
and it is believed that tonight's ses-
sion will pave the way for a strong
organization in this city. The idea
is to promote athletics among fac
tory employees and to have h con-
Germs themselves enter into the
spirit of the thing in doing every
thing possible to make the league
a success.
Such an organization, it is pointed
out, will result in a spirit of loyalty
being aroused and friendly compe-
tition with other factories which
will bring forth the best efforts of
all concerned.
Representatives are expected at
tonight's meeting from the Atlantic
Terra Gotta Company. Perth Amboy
Dry Docks, Roessler &c Hasslacher
Chemical Company, Raritan Copper
Works, American Smelling and Re-
filming Company. Standard Under
ground Cable Works, C. Pardee
Works and the Bakelite Company.
Other industries may also be rep
resented. The meeting has been
called for s o'clock.
Active Throughout Year.
1t is the intention to have the in
dustrial league active throughout the
year, having charge of the baseball
games in the summer, together with
track and field meets between en-
ployes, running a basketball league
in the winter together with bowling
matches and tug-of-war contests
Other sports can be added to the
routine.
One game which Physical Direc-
tor Pew is anxious to start among
the factories here is cage ball." a
game which is gaining in popular
ity at factories throughout the coun
try. The game can be played by
as many as 200 or even more on a
side and is a combination of push
bali, and basketball. The ball used
if about four feet in diameter. con.
tains a rubber bladder and is suf'
fciently light to pass. Each side
has it's cage" into which the bal
must be dropped and these cages
are generally at opposite ends OF
a city street. much room being need
ed to play the game owing to the
hundreds who can participate. The
ball cannot touch the ground an6
must be batted toward the goal.

The conclusion is that the cOttOr

These grades not only represent
an unbearable difference between the
production cost and the sale price.
They constitute weapon with which
the producers antagonists may as

in beating down the price of your
good grades. Destroy the low grade
cotton and thru such destruction, fat

Advice as to when to sell cotton is
dangerous stuff. But surely there is
no use in picking cotton of such low
grade that it will little more than pay
for the picking and ginning when sold
if it can be sold at all. Beyond ques-
ton, the present supply of low grade
cotton has depressing effect on
prices for good grades and the pro-
ductiOn of more poor stuff will still
further depress prices.--Oklahoma
Farmer.
If advice as to when to sell cot
ton is dangerous stuff; what is to be
said of advice to destroy cotton af-
ter it is grown, even though it be
of an inferior grade. That every
means should be employed to produce
cotton If the better grades is true
without question, but that it is he
part Of wisdom to destroy cotton of
inferior grade after it is ready to har-

ANY estimate now of consump-
ton of American cotton 1920-21 can
only be tentative. During the forth
coming twelve months international
trade and commerce should gradually
adjust themselves to more normal con-
ditions. If working people can be
persuaded to increase production the
return of the world to happier and
more livable conditions will be has
tened. The adjustment will be slow
if they disregard their responsibilities.
Great Britain and all settled gov
ernments regardless of their domestic
wants, will make supreme efforts to
reduce the trade balance against them
and will bend every effort toward
large exports of manufactured goods
especially cotton goods. The condi-
tons, however, are such in Germany,
Central Europe and Russia that we
feel that in venturing the estimate
of a probable foreign consumption of
American cotton of 6,35O,O00 bales
we are exceedingly the probabilities,
building upon the belief that condi-
tions in Europe will soon turn for the
better.
The consumption in America is not
likely to exceed 6,350,000.

COTTON ALL MIXED UP

Spinners and spectators are indus

on August l indicated a total pro-
ducti0n of more than 12 1-2 million
bales in the United States and Okla
home promised to produce about a
twelfth of it. Low grade cotton for
which there is no sale clogs the mar
kets and there is much of it yet un-
sold in Oklahoma.
A very sensible suggestion has
come from W. B. Thompson, a cotton
factor in New Orleans, who fully
realizes that producers of cotton
must have cost and at least little
profit before the South can pros
per. In a recent circular, he says:
During the last three years, low
grade cotton has been a grievOus
burden upon the cotton industry.
During this period the supply of
these damaged grades has been alb
normally large and the demand there
fore abnOrmally small. Low middling
is quoted at 10 3-4 cents pound less
than middling, the next grade above,
and good ordinary at IL 1-2 cents
pound less than midding, and even
at these discounts all the grades
in question have been and still are
practically unstable.

LAND OF RACIAL TEMPESTS
Daimatla Has Been an Unquiet Spot
In All the Years Of Her
Tragic History.

Dalmatia, elongated so that It Is
nowhere more than 35 miles wide, tap
ering down to but a mile at Cattaro,
has been swept by continuous racial
tempests for the last eight centuries.
Croats and Serbians constitute the
Slavic element in Dalmatia, speaking
the same language, but employing two
alphabets. The Serbs use the Russian.
and the Croats the Latin letters and
alphabet.
The Latin influence Is more prev
alent In the cities, the story Of Dal-
malta being the reason therefor. In
the middle ages the Dalmatians were
q people without the consciousness of
country. During the Slav influx into
Illyria the invaders encountered little
opposition, except in the seaport towns.
The Latin element in the cities resist.
ed the migration and thus engendered
the strife for supremacy which per-
slsts to this day.
Much of the early Dalmatian rivalry
was economic, the tradesmen and
farmers naturally wishing to exchange
their goods with the Hungarans. The
maritime cities preferred to do busi-
ness with Venice, which controlled the
Adrlatic.

How Chinese Use Peach Stones.

Women and children are to be seen
in the markets of China picking up
peach stones, which are put to several
uses. Broken into pieces and dried
in the sun. they furnish excellent ma
terial for fuel.
Another profitable use of the peach
stone is made by artists and engrav-
ers, who carve them into different
forms of animals. Some of the larger
stones, II round enough, are carved
into finger rings. During the season
one may see in the interior of South
China yards OF poor people full of
peach stones drying in the sun. After
being cleaned, the small stones are
used for fuel, groups of small boys
picking out the larger ones.
The kernels are sometimes sold TO
chemists and druggists. They nre
preserved In bottles and used us
cough medicine after the kernels are
turned into white powder. This
white powder Is n very popular, con-
venient and cheap medicine for poor
people in many Villages as a remedy
for coughs.

ANCIENT MARVEL OF EGYPT
Labyrinth Constructed Some $500
Years Ago Was . Structure
Of Colossal Size.

King Minos, with his labyrinth on
the island of Crete, is generally sup
posed to have been the originator Of
the maze idea; hut Egypt has a laby-
rinth. too. and Egypt manages to hold
the record for antiquity In almost cv-
erything. labyrinths included.
This Egyptian labyrinth is $500
years old. II is merely chaotic mass
OF rocks piled up in the desert few
miles out Of MedInet. The outlines Of
the walls merge dimly here and there
from the ruins, and from these out
lines. and the carvings on the stones.
Psychologists deduce that the laby-
rinth was built by certain King
Labarys. who was more popularity
known as Amenemhat III.
The structure was 500 by 600 feet
IT contained 5000 rooms, half above
ground, half below. Remember that
the largest hotel in our present day
world boasts about that number of
rooms on dozen floors and covers
city square, and some idea of the size
Of the two-story labyrinth can be
gained.
Nobody has figured out yet why King
Amenemhat built this enormous pal
ace or tomb. In the lower story. his
tory says, the sacred crocOdiles and
kings were buried, while the upper
floor was, few centuries after King
Amenemhat's time, used as a seat Of
government.
The labyrinth was wonderful
place, one Of the most wonderful in
Egypt, If our ideas of it are correct.
and its greatness was its downfall.
The citizens Of nearby town. who
worshiped the ichneumon. resented
the sacred crocodiles Of the labyrinth.
And SO they made an attack upon one
Of King Amenemhat's successors and
reduced the largest structure in Egypt
to ruin.
