HOME COMING DAY
SET FOR OCTOBER7

Mayor Key will invite more than
10000 former Atlantians to return
and participate in Homecoming day
on Monday, October II.
Homecoming day will be the fourth
day Of the Southeastern fair, and the
mayor wants to make it a notable
event in the history of Atlanta. A
committee from the Junior Chamber
of Commerce will take the homecom-
ers in charge on their arrival and
provide entertainment for them dur
ing their stay.
There is, of course, no way to
ascertain how many persons now liv-
ing elsewhere have in the past re-
sided in Atlanta, but the Homecoming
committee knows that natives of At
lanta are scattered from Maine to
California and back again, and be-
lieve that many thousands of former
residents will return for the forth
coming event.
"We want former residents of At
lanta to return for many reasons"
said Mayor Key. 1--WE feel that the
city is on the road to it's greatest
prosperity. We want the old-timerS
to return and see how we have pros
pered. We want them to see our fair,
which is one of the country's very
best. We want them to get here Sat-
they can go to their old favorite
church on Sunday. And we want
them, after they get here, to stay as
long as they like

WASHINGTON, Sept. 9O.-The at
tempted assassination in Lemberg
last Monday of President Pilsudski,

sire for revenge on the part of
Stefan Fedak, the young staff Of

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-There was fur

The disposition to take profits on long con-
tracts probably was increased by the crop
report of a local authority placing the con-
dition at AT and the indicated yield at
$4,000 bales, or considerably above re-
cent figures. Otherwise, however, selling
was restricted by the continued strength Of
Liverpool where spot sales of 10000 bales
were reported, favorable reports from Man
chester and later New Orleans report was
issued making the condition only ~ and the
indicated crop 100000 bales. The mar

decline of 1 point with October selling Off
to 20. 80, and December to 20. 65 before the
end of the first hour or about 20 to %
points net lower.
The early decline carried December off
% 20.65c or % points net lower. Few II
any stop orders were uncovered on TINS
break, which created a favorable opinion
Of the technical position, while there was
an impression in some quarters that early
liquidation of speculative long accounts had
been absorbed by buying for the trade. TINS
idea helped to steady the market later, and
trading became comparatively quiet toward
midday, with prices showing rallies of 10 to
20 points. The detailed weather reports
showed a good deal of rain in western and
central belt districts and the gradual ap-
proach of the frost period was emphasized
By the lower temperatures in north Texas.
The market became firmer during the early
afternoon owing to the reduced volume of
liquidation, bullish southern spot adyices and
a renewal of commission house support.
Most months made new high for the day,
with December selling at 20.9S and January
at 20.74, or IL to Is points net higher.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 29.-The

volume of merchandise moving in and

movement in addition to providing for
other crops and for extraordinary

have prevented banks from contin-

which prevailed earlier, but rates for
borrowed money have not been affect

Small Cane Crop
In Colquitt County

MOULTRIE, Ca. Sept. 30.-A
drouth stretching over a period of
more than six weeks was broken
Tuesday afternoon by rain that ex-
tended to all parts of Colquitt county,
according to news received in Moul-
trie. The drouth was serious in some
sections and many farmers were hav-
ing to haul water for their live stock
for several miles.
Z The rain came too late to do the
cane crop much good, but will make
it possible for farmers to begin
planting grain. In spite of large
acreage, syrup production this year
will be very limited. There was a big
carry-over from last years crop.
Mandy predict profit to cane grow
ers this year, as they will get more
for small crop than they would
have received for large one.
