in a boys organization, such as a
boys club, Y. NJ. c. A.. Boy Scouts,
or library. Are we not forgetting
the keystone because of the lack of
play space and boys programs.
There is an old statement which
needs TO be repeated in these days.
that the boys are the foundation
stones of a nation, and on this foun-
iation is a nation built. either strong
or weak.
Two Classes Of Boys
"Now, in working with boys there
are two classes which we must con-

am interested in him because he is
some mothers boy, and you. as Ro-
tarians, because you want to be of
service; but | believe we need not
worry so much over him if he has
the making of a man in him, for
think Of the wonderful institutions
America has provided for him, and il
is only up to us to insist that he de-
velop the right kind of manhood. The
other is the privileged boy-the boy
who should be, if he is not taking ad-
vantage of our higher educational in
stitutions, whose parents should be
securing, if they are not, for him the
knowledge that he will require if he
is to become leader in the various
walks of life. You have done lots for
the underprivileged boy, but the pri-
vileged boy is the boy | am worry

who have a good home and have had
good training.
1T is up to you as Rotarians to

you may save him many pitfalls.

ROTARY. THE BRIDGE BUILDER
An old man travelling a lone high
way,
Came at the evening cold and gray,
To chasm deep and wide.
The old man crossed in the twilight
dim,
For the sullen stream held no fears
for him,
And he turned when he reached the
other SIDE,
And builded a bridge to span the
tide.
"Old Man." cried pilgrim near,
you are wasting your strength in
building here.
Your journey will end with the end
ing day
And never again will you pass this
way.
You have crossed the chasm deep and
wide
Why build a bridge at eventide?"
The builder raised his old gray head,
Good friend, on the path have
corie,"
He said,
There followeth after me today
A youth whose feet will pass this
way.
This stream which has been naught
to me.
To that fair haired youth may pit
fall be.
He, too, must cross in the twilight
dim,
Good friend, am building this bridge
for him."

ATTACK ON GIRL
DENIED BY RICHARD

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.--Tex Rick
ard, internationally known promoter
Of sporting events, was charged in
magistrates court today with Grim.
inal assault on a 15-year-old girl, a
public school pupil, and daughter of
an east side widow.
Through counsel, Richard, who
surrendered on learning a bench
warrant had been issued, denied the
charges, which were made by the
Childrens' society, on complaint of
the girl. Two of the girls compan-
ions were held as witnesses. y,
The promoter was under $1,000
bond for examination next Wednes-
day. His attorney, Max D. Steuer.
said in a statement that Mr.. Rick
ard was the most surprised man
In the world" that he knew nothing
about the case. The statement, de-
claring the situation mystifying, as
serted Richard undoubtedly had
number of bitter enemies, as he
now was engaged in considerable
litigation.
The three girls appeared in court,
clad in cheap dresses, plain coats
and cotton stockings. Their parents
also were present.
Seen later in their simple quar-
tiers in the din-lit east side tene-
ments, the parents all protested to
have known nothing Of the story
until called to court. Complaining
that their daughters were being held
by the Children's society, they said
the girls went to public school and
habitually were home early at night.
All said they never heard OF
Mr.. Richard.
One of the girls mothers said she
was summoned to a police station
last Saturday night, where she was
told her daughter and the girl who
made the charge had been given to
the Children's society after they had
gone to Bellevue hospital and falsely
reported having taken iodine.

IRISH SITUATION
TAKES SUDDEN TURN

LONDON, Jan. 23.--By the Asso-

took surprising and unexpected
turn today with the announcement
that Michael Collins. head Of the
Irish provisional government and
Sir James Craig. premier of Ulster.
had arrived at mutual agreement
which holds out the promise Of
p,aceable settlement between the
north and the south. 1t was all the
more surprising in view Of the fact
that Mr.. Collins had only left Dub.

In addition to the arrangements
made to settle the boundary ques.

kNEW ORTEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 21.-It was
an evening-up market In cotton To-
dav. covering from the short side
furnishing support in the early trad
ing while in the later session lqul-
dation of long contracts caused smau
says. The close was typical OF the
rest of the day, the list being one
point up to three points down, COM
pared with the close Of yesterday.
The closing bid on March was 1873.
Early gains amounted to six to-
seven points, carrying March to
1886, and the moderate amount OF
new buying that came on the mar
ket arose from the favorable opin-
ion entertained Of weekend re-
views CT trade in general, which
were held to show small but healthy
Improvement. Further encourage
ment was found in kilograms from
Dallas reporting more activity In
the spot market there than in any
preceding day of this year.
The evening-up on the long side
carried prices three to six points
under the close of yesterday, March
dropping to 1872. This liquidation
! was along very moderate lines, as
most traders felt that the ginning
returns, due the first thing Monday
morning, would be very small, al
though there was some disposition to
think that private estimates indicat-
. ing only about 10000 bales ginned
this last period were somewhat too
low.

COTTON

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-The cotton
market was very quiet today and
! fluctuations were irregular within
range of 10 or Is points. After SELL
ing at 1888 early. March eased off
to 17.6S on unfavorable reports from
the cotton goods trade. and closed
at 1910, with the general market
closing net seven points lower to four
points higher
The market opened steady at an
advance of four to nine points on
scattered covering for over the week
end. Spot interests bought near
months and sold later deliveries and
there was some foreign buying of
the later positions. On the whole.
however, there was very little show
of interest and prices eased off slight
ly late in the morning on reports OF
an unsettled feeling in the cotton
goods trade. january sold off from
1880 to 17.74 and May from 17.74 to
1882, closing within point or two
of the lowest.
Sales of print cloths in the Fan
River market for the week were estl-
mated at $4,000 pieces. No increased
curtailment was reported, but it is
said that some of the manufacture
ers are talking a reduced output II
there is not soon an Improvement
in demand. Late in the morning re-
ports from the local cotton goods
market were received indicating
that most of the buyers who had
been here attending the convention
earlier in the week were returning
home without placing large orders,
and that second hands were shading
prices.
These reports had an unfavorable
influence on sentiment, and probably
accounted for some scattered selling.
There was no change in the news
from the southern spot markets and
local brokers' reported very few Or
ders from the south either way.
The amount of cotton on ship
board Awaiting clearance was estl-
mated at $4,000 bales, against 1885,
900 last year.

GRAIN

CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-Wheat prices
showed a final burst Of strength
and the highest levels of the session
were made shortly before the close.
There was an undercurrent of
strength from the start although the
bulge was held in check by week
end profit taking. The buying was
mainly for eastern account and to
some it looked as though one Of the
big cotton traders was the principal
issuing the orders. The news was
mixed, but any item of bulliSh con-
struction received wide circulation.
The fact that Australia shipped near
ly 100000 bushels Of wheat last
week, 100000 bushels going to the
United Kingdom lost it's effect be-
cause the Liverpool market was an
1-2d higher at the close. Mois-
ture was regarded as insufficient
over the southwest. Milling demand
for wheat is poor with sales of only
1900 bushels reported. Seaboard
reported the export demand slow,
but that one house had an order
for 800, 900 bushels number north
ern. Receipts are increasing at pri-
mary markets. Market closed 1-8c
to L 7-Sc higher: May $1.15 rs q
$1.16. July $1.03 @ S1.02 rs.
Corn was firm along with other
grains. Hedging pressure held the
advance in check early but the
strength in wheat aided bulls later.
Receipts at Chicago this week were
oIr of G n.
ments. There were 10000 bushels of
corn delivered on January contracts.
Baltimore elevators are reported
congested because Of the large
amount of soft corn arriving there.
Omaha reported 100000 bushels of
corn sold to exporters yesterday.
Cash corn closed half to one cent
lower: shipping sales 225,000 bush
els. Including 100000 bushels to ex-
porters; market closed 1-8c to lac
up: May So a-Sc; July SIS $50.
oats followed other markets.
Changing in the way of selling and
buying July at 78c difference was
a feature. Cash oats were steady.
Shipping demand moderate. Sales
were 81 900 bushels. Market closed
3-8c to lac up; May 80 1-8c; July 40c.
Good export demand for lard and
buyingib by smaller packers gave the
provision market firm tone. There
were 100000 pounds Of lard bought
to arrive. Pork closed 35c@50c up;
lard 15c@2Oc up, and ribs 15c@20c
up.
