There was an apparent proft in

today for those who left their lines
OF short stock outstanding at the
close yesterday In anticipation OF a
break following omission OF the
regular dividend. The stock opened
with a net loss Of TX points at ASK

opportunity for covering at the
bottom was available TO only the
nrst few traders who decided to
take this course. The stock re-
covered rapidly. touching 40 and
then settled back to the closing

FRIDAY IS BIG
DAY FOR KIDD|ES
OF MAYSvILlE
Big Circus to Hold Forth at Ball Park
Grounds on Friday - Grand
Street Parade Is Prom.
ised,

The advent of the Rhoda Royals
greatest shows, on the ball park
grounds Friday will, 1t Is said mark
an epoch in the matter Of tented
amusements in Maysville. That this
show Will present the biggest and fin
est street pageant Maysville has vet
witnessed, is asserted without quail
fication. That the show company num-
bers more show performers and of n
better order Of merit than have hereto
fore been gathered together under any
one management, is also stated posi-
, lively. Thousands of dollars cash were
expended last winter in accumulating
new features to add to the glories OF
the "Rhoda Royal Greatest Shows"
The menagerie is said to be very
complete one, containing the finest
collection of rare wild beasts ever on
the coast. The newspapers all along
the line speak highly of this entertain
ment, and the Small boy, as well as
the older folks who will be delighted
again with the feats of the many male
a0d female performers, the handsome
horses. the wonderful exhibition of
wild beasts in the circular steel cage
the marvellous aerial acts, and the ex-
citing races on the hippodrome track.
Exchanges are all unanimous in prais-
ing the courtesy Of Royals employees
while handling the immense crowds
and finding seats for late comers.
The late Of sure thing" men and
takers also adds materially to the en-
iorment of the spectator.
The reputation of Rhoda Royal for
Faithfully carrying out oil his advance
promises and for dealing fairly with
the public in all things, affords posi-
tive assurance that his show will
eclipse anything of a like nature seen
here before.

LEAF PRICE At WINSTON.
SALEM TAKES Big JUMP
Considerable Increase Noted In North
Carolina Tobacco Prices
Price Reaches S29S1.

Winston-Salem, N. c., Oct. 6. Leaf
tobacco reached the high water mark
OF the present season Monday when
472.OSO pounds were sold at the local
warehouses for an average price of
S29.Sl per hundred pounds, eclipsing
all previous records Of the 1922 sea-
son by almost five cents per pound
The amount Of cash paid out to the
farmers Tuesday totaled $140,692.95.
The decided increase In the average
price came as happy surprise to the
many farmers who sold tobacco here
Monday. The better grades brought
decidedly better prices than they did
on the opening day, while the common
grades showed little, if any, increase
in price. However, the big increase can
not all be attributed to an increase in
price. The quality of the tobacco sold
Monday was much better than on any
previous day.
Mondays Sales-Total pounds, 472,-

MORE GOING TO
SUNDAY SCHOOLS
IN KENTUCKY
Reports to State Conference Of Sunday
Schools Are Quite EncOurag.
Ing - Experts Address
Meeting.

Newport, Ky, Oct. 6. - The Ken
lucky Sunday School Associations an
nual convention Is being held at Salem
M. Il. church with 700 delegates pres
ent
Sunday schools throughout Kentucky
have had a good increase in member
ship during the past year and larger
numbers Of persons than ever before
have been added to the membership Of
the churches, according to the annual
report of Rev. George A. Joplin, Louis
vile, general secretary Of the Ken
lucky state Sunday school association.
During the year, he reported, more
than $4,000 persons attended about one
thousand Sunday school rallies held
throughout the state. One hundred and
thirty-four conventions were held and
attended by members of the staff of
the association lat which 1881 Sunday
schools were represented and at which
there was a total attendance of S,140.
Nearly five thousand persons had
some part in the programs Of the
various rallies and conventions.
Increased activity of county superin-
tendents and organizations of county
Young Peoples Division Committees,
were two of the big forward steps ac-
complished by the Young Peoples d.
vision of the Kentucky Sunday School
Association, according to the annual
report of Miss Mary Virginia Howard,
superintendent. A group of people who
thoroughly believe in and are promot-
ing the associations program of
Young Peoples Work, is gradually de-
veloping, she said.
Need of annual registration of
Young Peoples classes was stressed
by Miss Howard. Only a portion are
listed, she said, although since 1910 a
total of S66 classes have been reported.
Division of Sunday schools into
Young Peoples departments was one
of the developments of the year, she
said.
The child in the Sunday school must
be taken "into the land of Once Upon
a Time" and taught through stories
having thrill of adventure and expec-
tation. Mrs. A. T. Robinson told the
Children's Division Section Of the Ken
lucky Sunday School Convention at
the opening session. Mrs. Robinson's
subject was "The Listening Ear"
"The story is the outstanding fea-
ture of the Sunday school to the small
child" she said. ITO tell the story
we'll is to impress the lessons 1t con-
tans. Therefore it must be adapted to
the children, in approach. in language
and in speed of movement.
"For the beginners the story must De
a picture, with the attributes of pic
ture in color, composition, perspective,
atmosphere - perhaps the greatest OF
these is atmosphere. 1t also must be
a journey, trip to the land of Once
Upon a Time with thrill of adven-
ture and expectation as we start 1t
must be told so as to draw the child
nearer to God. When we have a SER
mon we ask three things Of the preach
er-to be drawn nearer to God, to have
our stock or religious knowledge in
creased and to be helped to do our
duty. All this story must do for the
beginner"
