COTTON DECLINES
AFTER EARLY GAIN
Late Increase of Long Liqui-
dation and Outside Selling
Depresses Market.

A late increase in long liquidation and
outside selling carried yesterdays mac
tive cotton market to lower levels after
prices had been lifted about 10 to Is
points in the first hour. The contract
list sold off 10 to 26 points in the course
bottom Generally speaking. the
market yesterday was a repetition OF
its last nine or ten sessions. 1t was
just as dull and narrow in price range
as were all last weeks markets and
the majority of large operators con-
tinued to do little or nothing.
Crop preparations have not advanced
to point at which decided opinion as
to the size of the next crop can be
formed. The weather was about
standoff yesterday. the map showing
clear and slightly warmer weather over
the eastern belt. but rains at several
Texas points included fall Of more
than two inches at Amarillo. Central
sections were cloudy and unsettled and
the forecast for the East was for cloudi-
ness with the possibility of showers
to-day.
The market opened 2 points net higher
to 2 lower and soon after the call ad
vanced slightly from Saturdays close
with support from Wall Street shorts,
Liverpool and Japanese interests, Longs
were not particularly disturbed over the
political situation in Europe as Liver
POOLS cables reflected nothing start
ling. Futures prices in the English
market were about as expected and
snot business abroad Showed a decided
increase. 10000 bales hanging hands
with an advance of I'D for middling at
1o.69d
Bulls were helped by the National Gin
ners' Associations estimate placing
mill consumption of cotton in February
at $4,000 bales in contrast to only 395. 600
bales consumed the same month of last
year. The Census Bureaus official re-
port on consumption will appear to-day
and probably will be lower than the as
ISOLATION estimate. due to late curtail-
ment in demand caused by the textile
strike Several mills have announced
that they will shut down for an in
definite period.
Spot interests were among the prin-
cipal late sellers, offering the market
down on curtailment reports from the
North Carolina mill district and the
possibility of large deliveries on con-
tracts. Wall Street longs also sold.
chiefly on revolutionary disturbances in
India and South Africa.
The local spot market declined 20
points to 1915 cents for middling. De-
liveries on contracts here were 1900
bales. The New Orleans spot market
was steady. 25 points lower at 1876
cents for middling. Sales there were
III bales.

NEWSPAPER ITEMS
THIRTY YEARS AGO
From the Colville Republican (I1. L.
Jameson. editor) 80 years ago today

The merchants of Colville should
chip in and build a free wagon yard
for the convenience of their GUS
toners who are at the mercy of the
predatory bovine. This is the only
solution for very annoying nuisance,
that of the loose stock in our streets.
Nose Dilsheimer and Mrs. Max
We'll, brother and sister of Mrs.
Fannie Barman, left this week for
their home in Baker City They say
Colville is more than holding its
own with towns in other parts of
the country.
Postmaster Moyle has been notified
that the post office at Colville will
be made international money order
office.
Auditor S. F. Sherwood Wa mar
ried Dec. 3 at Atchison, Neb., to
Miss Mamie Goodhue of that place,
who is we'll acquainted in Colville.
The Old Dominion mine has at last
passed into the hands of a company
of capitalists who have the means
and the confidence in their property
to push it. Messrs. Peck Brothers
OF Chicago are the real owners.

Christmas Seals
Are Now on Sale
Health Crusade and Nutri-
ton Work in Schools
Are Supported

The annual sale of Christmas seals
in Stevens county, this year under
the direction of Principal H. A. Scar
borough of the Colville high school,
is being handled largely by the
teachers and school patrons OF the
county. The successful work being
done in nearly all of the schools OF
the county by the Modern Health
Crusade and the Nutrition Work is
responsible for the interest being
taken by school teachers and par
ents. The Christmas seals support
these two important lines of work.
The Modern Health Crusade
teaches to the children the princi-
Piles of cleanliness, neatness, physi-
cal exercise, proper diet, promptness,
obedience, and regularity. The value
of this work has so impressed it
self on teachers and pupils that
every effort is being made to con-
tinue the work.
The Nutrition Work is for the pur-
pose of bringing underweight chill
dren up to normal weight, in order
that body and mind may function
coordinately, thus giving opportunity
for parent and teacher to get proper
results in home and school education.
Christmas Seal Sale
Each December the National Tuber-
culosis Association furnishes Christ
mas Seals for sale to all persons to
use on their Christmas letters,
packages and greetings. The seals
are three colored Autographed en-
blems, like postage stamps, and
their use signifies that the sender is
willing to spend small sum each
|. year in working for the health of
humanity.

Protection, Not Charity
Mission of Xmas Seals

(By Mrs. Ross Culver, Colville
chairman of Seals sale.)
I would like to see Christmas
seal on every letter and package
mailed in Colville during December,
and 1 know every man, woman and
child in the city would buy as gen
erously as possible if they fully re-
allied the wonderful work these little
seals are making possible. A con-
tribution to the Christmas seal fund
is not charity-it is really self pro-
lection, for tuberculosis is con-
tagious disease and the successful
fight against it means greater safe
ty for the individual as well as the
community, state and nation.
When you bring your letters and
packages to the postoffice and you
already have purchased seals, bring
them along too and the girls in
charge will be more than glad to stick
them on FOR you.
Sixty per cent of the funds raised
in the county will be used in this
county, the greatest share being used
in the nutrition work IN our schools.

| Nearly a hundred of the patrons
of the Colville schools braved the
ten-below-zero weather Tuesday eve
ming to attend the regular monthly
meeting of the Colville Parent
Teacher Association, at the court
room.
The entire business of the eve
ming was upon the report of the
committee which had been previously
appointed by the president, w. l..
Sax. This committee comprised
Chester r. Wiley, ]. W. Henderson,
G. L. Putnam, L. P. johnson, c. }.
Rhode, Geo. w. Schwerdfield, H. A.
Scarborough, Miss Ruth M. Yenney,
Mrs. Ellen Page. The committee
met on the evening of Dec. a, and
by unanimous vote decided to pre-
sent the following resolutions to the
association:
Committee Report
In consideration of the increasing
lack of parental control and of the
increasing laxity in the enforcement
of the laws, designed particularly
for the protection of the morals OF
youth, and the fact that the schools
are threatened with failure in the
accomplishment of its aims and func-
tions, the committee begs to submit
the following resolutions for the ac-
ton of this body:
l. That the arent-Teacher Asso-
citation requests the city council to
pass an ordinance forbidding the use
of screens, or any other object which
will obstruct clear view from the
street of the interior of the pool
hall Or card room.
hall shall be partitioned off to form
hall shall be patitioned off to form
rooms, booths, or other Enclosures,
the interior of which cannot be view
ed from any part of the main pool
room.
2. That the Association endorses
the resolution Of the sheriffs and
prosecuting attorneys as adopted by
their conventions this year, regarding
the control of road houses, and
recommends that the legislature pass
the bill framed for this purpose.
3. That this Association condemns
the practice of students attending
public dances unchaperoned, and
urges upon each parent that appro-
pirate action be taken for prohibiting
those under his control from SO at
tending such dances.
4. That the school board be re-
quested to prohibit dancing in any
and all school buildings.
S. That the Association favors
the continuance of the lyceum, ath-
letic contests, motion pictures, plays,
and other forms of entertainment
and amusement as being practiced
at the present time.
8. That an applicant for town
marshal be recommended by this
Association, who will always keep
in mind the best interests of minors.
That we heartily endorse j. G.
Cohoon for city chief of police.
Discussion of Questions
All of the resolutions were ap-
proved by the vote of the association,
with little discussion, except No. q.
A number of interesting points were
brought out in the discussion OF
dancing in school buildings. Among
the six high school teachers in the
audience, the opinion prevailed that
it was better for the school to con-
troll all school activities, including
dancing, than to leave the matter
of dancing to the haphazard methods
which might prevail in a community
beset with conflicting ideas regard
