COTTON PRICES PULLING
LOCAL BUYERS

Why the market quotation OF cot
ton has continually rose until Tues
day Of this week the market closed
higher than ever before during this
season and no apparent demand for
the staple, is a puzzle 70 local buy
ers and other interested men. Buy
ers on the local market cannot af-
ford 20 pay market quotations they
claim, because they have no demand
for the cotton at higher prices Sew
eral cars Of cotton have been ship
ped comparatively to Houston dur
ing the past few weeks by Lubbock
county farmers. Word from Houston,
which is considered one Of the best
cotton markets in the South, state
that not a single sale of cotton was
recorded during the entire week just
passed. Cotton was quoted Tuesday
evening at about Al - cents per
pound middling Local buyers claim
that they cannot afford to pay more
than 40 cents Ga few sales slightly
above that figure were made), and
local farmers don't understand their
position for paying from one to one
and half cents less than market
prices. THE cotton market is abnor-

eminent Cotton Chaser, land few Of

of much future for holly cotton but

W. P. Rayner Accepts Com
mand of Home Defense

W. Pearce Rayner, chairman OF the

League The appointment follows
recent meeting of the directors of the

Mr. Rayner has. for a long time.

lens and assisted the police depart
ment particularly during the race
riots last year and in several emer-
gency cases recently.
In his letter of acceptance to
Odell s. Smith. director of the Home
Defense League, Mr.. Rayner said:
Hopes for 800 Cars in Corps.
''Inasmuch as the motor corps has
never been recruited to a point where
systematic organization is pOss1bi lie.
L wish to propose the following plan
OF reorganization which, l believe,
will make the motor corps a live, 60
ing, first line of police reserves ana
furnish the incentive necessary to
keep interest in such an organization
permanently.
In all emergencies hitherto, it has
been necessary for the motor car
owners who responded to work long
hours without rest and attempt to
attend to their business matters in
the meantime as well. In asking for
the number of officers that l do, 1t Is
my hope to make the membership in
the motor corps at least 900 cars. so
that in all emergencies not requiring
that many cars continuously, 1t will
BE- possible to work both officers and
members in from four to eight hour

RED CROSS CAMP
BOON TO CHILDREN
NEEDING SUNSHINE
AII-Day Program Helps
Youngsters to Build Up
Their Bodies.

Tucked away behind the Tuberculo-
SIS Hospital, at 14th and Upshur
streets. is the Red Cross day camp.
conducted by the tuberculosis Asso-
cation. to care for the little chill
dreh here who are exposed in their
homes to tuberculosis.
Eighty-six boys and girls, white
and colored. come to the camp every
morning at $50 o'clock and remain
there until 5 o'clock each afternoon.
Ihey are under the supervision of
nurses.
The children live entirely out-of-
doors. either in the sun or under the
trees. or in the big pavilion in which
meals are served. They eat their
breakfasts at home, but are served
a midmorning lunch. and then have a
of the day.
Attendance Not Compulsory,
A nutritious lunch is given the chill.
dren in the midafternoon. The hours
are spent playing games, resting and
eating. The days are divided into
three periods. recreation, rest and in
struction.
The children range in age from
seven to fourteen years old. There
ance. but the patients" are eager
to come. it is declared. and only a
few miss the opening ekch morning,
even on rainy days
When the weather is rainy the
children spend most of their time
in the pavilion. On sunshiny days
the rest periods are nspent on cots
under the trees. and there the chill
dren drink in the fresh air, and allow
natures kindly metabolism to build
up their bodies.
Not all the children have tubercu-
1<ct h h,,t
for the camp are those who through
home environment are subject to the
possibility of becoming tubercular
At the camp the best methods of pre-
vention OF this disease are put into
practice. and good food. sunshine and
fresh air are given every chance to
get in their good work.
A sandpile is one of the big features
of the camp. and here every day the
smaller children may be seen build
ing castles and other objects which
may be made by an imaginative child
with the aid of sand, water and a
shovel or stick.
The children are provided with in
dividual towels and toothbrushes,
and the nurses instruct them in the
importance of observing personal
cleanliness, sleeping long hours in
the fresh air. eating wholesome food
only at regular hours and being
cheerful and helpful to others.
Two years ago the Association for
the Prevention of tuberculosis began
a crusade for better health for the
children of which the Red Cross
day camp is a part. In addition to
this camp, which is financed by the
tuberculosis Association from pro-
ceeds of the sale of little Christmas
seals, the association contributes to
the maintenance of the two tubercu-
losis schools and the two open-air
schools of the District.
AS health educational feature they
have promoted the modern health
crusade in the public and parochial
schools for the past two years. The
total number of children enrolled in
the health crusade during that time
is 1000. These children were taught
good health habits by doing them:
that good health is not providential,
but the result of ones own effort;
that good health habits means good
health: bad habits, bad health.

FEDERATION IS PROPOSED.
Project of Placing Medical PROBES
sion on Uniform Basis.

Dr. F. F. Simpson of Pittsburgh re-
Gently spent several months in Europe
with a view to interesting the medical
profession of the world in the project
of recognizing on a uniform basis
all international societies related to
the various branches of medicine. 1t
is proposed to create a federation of
these societies and to establish an in
ternational medical press bureau,
which shall be charged with making
known all important discoveries to
the medical press of the world, thus
ass.Ling a rapid and general diffu-
sion of medical knowledge.
To accomplish this work, the Amer
lean Medical Journal states that q
committee composed of two physicians
from each Of five countries-Belgium,
France, Great Britain, Italy and the
United States-has been named and
will meet soon in Paris or London to
begin the work.
