DRAMATIC CLUB
 PRESENTS PAGEANT
MontevaIIo Players Delight Audience With "The Forest
 Princess" Thursday

Montevallo, July 16.-(Special.) - On the campus of the college at Montevalio on Thursday night the dramatic club presented to a large and enthusiastic audience a beautiful pageant, The Forest Princess" very realistic forest in glow of moonlight had been improvised by the clever electrician, Mir. Jones, Williams.
 The story of the fairy child, blessed by the tree spirits and cursed by the Swamp oak Witch, and, in the end, saved by the true love of the noble hearted prince, was most graphically and artistically enacted by clever cast of summer school students. The practical, work -a-day world seenIHd to have slipped away, and in its place the world of our childhood fancy danced In the wood and witches cast spells over the innocent maids-nad come again.
 Cast of Characters
 The portrayal of the characters of the king and queen by Misses Vida Corley and Ruby Jones' of the prin- cess by Miss Lucy Holt; and of the two princes by Misses Annie Laurie Robertson and Edith Montgomery, showed distinct dramatic ability. The star of the evening, however. was the Swamp-oak Witch, Miss Ruth Cunningham. who won much merited applause by her almost professional cleverness.
 A neat sum was realized. the funds to be added to the treasury of tile dramatic club.
 Unstinted praise is due to Miss Vivian Monk. the gifted young dirsc- tor, who, with the able assistance of Miss Mac William, art director: Miss Lucille Allard, teacher of applied arts; Miss Funk, teacher of aesthetic dancing, and Miss Young, director of music, succeeded in staging so at tractive and artistic a performance

LABOR AFFECTS
 COTTON MARKET
FIeecy Staple Falls, Rises and Falls Again During
 Week
By ArnocIated Prcss

New Orleans, July 16.-Unfavorabls foreign news caused moderately wide declines in the price of cotton in tho early part of this week. after which complaints and hot winds in portions of Texas resulted in strong recoveries and small net advances. Toward the end of the week. private reports told of a considerable volume of ginning of new cotton being done in the earliest portions of Texas and the market fell off again, the close being 10 points under to 46 points over the close of the previous week. At the highest, the list showed net gains of IS to 3S points while at the lowest 1t stood at net losses of 57 to 73 points, the range of prices being s2 to 1o3 points october sold off to 2f2Sc, came back to 22.3Ic and closed at 21.92c. In the spot depart ment, middling closed net unchanged at 22.5oc, which price compared with 1l.sSc on the close of this week last year.
 Labor Conditions.
 Labor conditions in this country were against prices for awhile as was also the weakness In foreign ex- change but later in the week such features were balanced by the reduo- ton In the Bank of England rate to 3 per cent. During the greater part of the week, it was altogether a weather market and at the time when Tevas was sending out reports of hot winds, trading became very heavy with shorts covering in large way. This sort of buying helped to carry the market to its highest levels After the middle of tho week, tenn peratures were somewhat lower in the western belt and reports of much cotton being ginned attracted much attention. especially as 1t was claimed that ginnings would be in- creased in the near future.
 Statistics of the week were given a bullish interpretation. The census bureau report of 607.S69 bales con- sumed in this country during June was larger than expected and the visible supply American cotton, ac- cording- to Hester, fell to 2,21S,037 bales against 4,112,143 at this time last year, showing a decrease for the week of 125.823 bales against a de- crease this week last year of s3,622 bales.

With the South next door ITO the
hub Of the manufacturing center OF
the United States 1t faces a great OPP
portunity to become the lumber mar
ket of the future. The South has
lost it's lumber leadership but it can
be regained, according to Ovid NJ.
Butler, forester Of the American For
estry Association, who told the Com
mercial secretaries association in ses-
sion at Nashville how it can be done.
With four -fifths of its virgin timber
gone, how can It provide permanency
for it's forest industries? The an
swer to that question is by the appli-
cation OF forest management to its
forest lands
Apply a conservative growth rate
Of 400 feet an acre a year to the 36
million acres of the pine land in the
coastal plain region and you will

each year, or more than enough to
maintain the lumber industry at it's
present capacity for all time, to ex-
pand declining naval stores INDUS
try and to build up a permanent pulp
and paper industry on the forest waste.
That is the way the Association ex-
pert sees it, At present prices. that
means an inflow OF wealth to the
South aggregating over $50 million
dollars annually and indefinitely. IT
means the Souths continued domi-
nance Of the great lumber markets to
the North. VIII the business men Of
