 Then followed a social hour when they learned names and made ac- quaintances There were several meetings held on Saturday, the key note of them all being: Develop the spiritual atmosphere of college life and care for the highest ideal of young womanhood." The various phases of school girl life were taken up and discussed from this point of view. Careful thought was given to student government the discus sons looking to it's improvement and making it the means of developing character.

High Placed TimidIty

The Secretary of Agriculture dis plays a remarkable timidity He de- clares that the object of Senator Dial is highly meritorious But he fears that a law which would compel the cotton exchanges to deliver what they agree to deliver, would handicap manufacturers in hedging against a shcrt market.
 As Senator Dial declares. manu- lecturers can take care of them selves. can have resort to insurance companies. If needs be, but farmers have absolutely no protection. De- spite the remarks of the Secretary of Agriculture, Senator Dial states that in order to permit legitimate hedging there is no excuse for permitting New York and New Orleans gamblers making a fooball of the cotton which southern farmers dig out of the ground"
 Why is so valuable an article as cotton, irrespective of the law of sup ply and demand, priced just as New York, which has never seen cotton grow, would have it priced? That is the question that Senator Dial pro- pounds. Having interrogated the Senate. he asked for the passage of a resolution which would require the

They should turn it's thumbs down when I ask for grace because, when l was as innocent as you are I loved a man well enough to give my soul into his keeping and he, having tired of it. just naturally gave it to the world to pick and tear to pieces. Oh, come on. l am going to have liver and onions tonight"
 How like Kitty that was. She wouldn't allow herself to be anything but prosaic for more than five min utes at a time. Poor childl Her life's s tragedy must have cut deeper than l thought.
 Jack Thompson joined us at the lit tie Chinese restaurant over our liver and onions and his inconsequential gossip was exactly the thing we need ed. It sent us both home to bed and to sleep.
 1 spent the next day buying clothes. It was so nice to have enough money again. Kitty had transferred $1.000 of Ria's money to my account and had told me to check against 1t for what I wanted and to pay her when could.
 The clothes l bought were what I liked and thought that "Theo" would want me to wear. felt my face grow hot as I recalled that already I was using diminutive of Theodore Strat- tons name.
 "Theo, Theo," I repeated caress- ingly.
 I must have murmured his name aloud, for the salesgirl said: "I beg your pardon. I didn't understand"
 This brought me back to earth and as soon as possible l finished my shopping list and, having found that the sport suit I needed for the nor row fitted me perfectly, told them I would take 1t with me. the others to be sent the next day.
 On my way home l gave an order that there should be an extra lock put on my apartment. I determined that l should prepare myself against thieves in the future. But, alas, 1 for got to lock up my heart!
 The first two days at the studio had very little to do except, as Mir. Stratton said: ITO be my own sweet self.
 Maud Samson became more and more indifferent every hour until at the end of the second day she would not even speak to me. It became harder and harder for me to act un- conscious of her snubs-particularly in scenes which we had together. As she grew colder, Theodore Stratton grew more friendly and l began to understand what Kitty meant when she said that the director would prob ably elaborate my part per Theo's direction.
 The afternoon of the second day I found myself more in evidence as regarded the close-ups than the script had promised when 1 first read it.
 You'll stay for the rushes, Miss Winston,' Theo called to me as I started for my dressing room. We can see those shots taken yesterday on the screen tonight"
 "Oh, are we going to see ourselves tonight?" I stopped still and ex- claimed eagerly.
 ''See ourselves as others see us," broke in Maud Samson sourly.

DIAL SEEKING ID CURB ACTIVITIES
 OF COTTON ROBBER
Movement Was Initiated Two Years Ago by Senator Co., mer--LittIe Support From
 Southern Delegation
By HUGH W. ROBERTS Washington Bureau. The ARe-Herald.
 BOO Davidson Building

Washington, April 4.-(Special)- To the cotton producer of the south, the most important proposition in Washington at the present time in wolves the effort of Senator N. B. Dial of South Carolina, to put the cotton robber of New York out of business.
 Before the passage of the Smith Lever act. there were no regulations as to grades. and according to tes- timony of Bailey c. Harris before a committee of Congress, manipulators simply slaughtered the lambs" Since the passage of the Smith-Lever act, the advantage possessed by the gambling exchanges Is so great that the speculator who plays the game loses, according to scientific esti- mates, ss in 100 times.
 While Senator Dial is meeting op- position-and is failing to receive the cordial and active assistance of sev- eral so-called cotton" senator's there is no denial on the part of any member of Congress but that the ex- changes operate to the disadvantage of the southern farmer. Exchanges have made the cotton producer a serf in the opinion of Senator Dial.
 COmer's First Move
 Efforts to secure legislation which would give the farmer an even break in marketing the goods he produces were initiated two years ago by B. B. Conner, then a senator from Alabama, His proposed scheme passed the Senate but died in the House. Senator Dial took up the fight following the retirement of Senator Conner. He has displayed pa tience with opposition; he has dis played no pride in authorship; he has displayed a willingness to eon- promise just so the principle involved is maintained.
 But his associates from the south have not given him assistance Only one of them aggressively opposes his efforts-Senator Ransdell of Louis iana-but none of them have dis- played enthusiasm in his efforts. Since the initiation of his fight, those senators who in other days cried: Down with the exchanges" and who infrequently threatened with wild gesticula ton Ito cut off the heads of the exchanges" have maintained a silence which has caused general comment in the capital. The agrarian bloc which in immaterial matters has clamored long and loud. is ap- parently checkmated. Western sen ators profess to favor the scheme of Senator Dial, but on account of their unfamiliarity with cotton, are anx- ious that southerners in numbers lead the fight

Dial on Aggregation

Diai on AKgresstOu This is merely supplementary" said Senator Dial 'It does not mean that 1 will drop attempts to secure the passage of new legislation. As q mater of fact. if the subcommittee of the Senate committed on agricul- turc and forestry does not soon re- port my bill, I will ask that the | subcommittee be discharged and the proposed legislation be brought upon i the floor I am dead in earnest. and dilatory tactics will delay but not de- feat the general plan"
 Senator Dial believes-and he is obviously correct--that there will be no practical opposition to his ef- fort to control the exchanges after the fight has been brought into the open Senator RansdeIl will openly oppose him; but no other southern ! senator will follow suit, it is indi- cated
 Senator Dial would not put ex- changes out of business. He would not "cut off their heads" But he would make them, by law, play fair ly with the man who makes cotton. He would deny them the right which now they hold to deliver any one of 10 deliverable grades they desire to deliver.
 A. F. Lever, commissioner of the federal farm loan board, and CO., author of the Smith Lever act. agrees with Senator Dial that further inn provement in the law is necessary.
