New York was credited with 9,iT8 bales, leaving total stock at weekend, no rains of consequence re- ported, with rising temperatures, the cot ton market was lower in the early hourss but improved later because of prospects for less favorable weather tomorrow in the interior, unsettled for southwest, prob ably showers and cooler north portion. probably showers for the east belt. Pri- vate crop reports are generally unfavor- able. due to much replanting having been made necessary by recent low tempera- lures which have also prevented satisfac- tory growth.

NEW YORK, May 1s--cables this morn ing were slightly better than due. but weather conditions over Sunday were ideal so that our market opened. lower with some scattered speculative selling on the weather news The undertoue was steady and the posting of very large exports re- CTS so that prices rather easily recovered this mornings and part of Saturdays de- cline. There is no change in the general situation. It is obvious from the supply fo cotton available that consumption must continue to fall off and whiiesit Is most unfortunate that itNis our American mills nient itself is not that factor in the mar ket whichsit would be with a more normal supply situation.

ROTARIAN NEWbERT
ENTERTAINS CLUB
WITH WITTY talk

The splendid talk by Rotarian FL
mer E. Newbert on the "origin. de-
yelopment, and romance of .gallus-
ses'" was the feature of the regular
meeting Of the Rotary Club, held at
the Augusta House Friday evening
with a large attendance of members
ana a dozen guests. Mr.. Newbert's
exposition of his subject was bril-
liant. witty to an extraordinary de-
grea. qualified by exhaustive refer
ences to authority. revelation in the
wonderful part in history which this
modest article of mems attire has
played. and at all times logical. The
talk brought appreciative applause
from his hearers at many points, and
was carried in perfect transition from
the sublime to the ridiculous and
back again to the sublime.
Lamb chops, French fried pota-
toes. horticultural beans. consome of
tomato, rolls, coffee, cake and rasp-
berry ice cream made up the menu
OF particularly enjoyable supper
Various items of business were acted
upon at the luncheon meeting. Chair
man A. w. Brooks of the Rotary
committee on War Memorial. pre-
sented a splendid report of the prog
ress of the organization and cam
paign. Mr.. Brooks reported that the
proposition had met with instant and
spontaneous response when present
ed to the public, and all things aug
ured for a most successful effort.
An appreciative letter from the
office of the Maine Children's Home
Society was read. thanking the Ro-
tarians for their generous contribu-
ton to the work of the society. A
d. I'D
to volunteer to entertain delegates
to the State Boys Conference, which
will be held in Augusta March $3.50.
1t would be impossible to attempt
to do justice to the talk by Rotarian
Newbert in the necessarily limited
space Of a news report. And any at
tempt to concentrate the speech
would mar its consumate beauty.
Suffice 1t to say that Mr.. Newbert
was most convincing as well as en-
tertaining. 1t was his contention
| that that "gallusses". Gle refused to
call them braces or suspenders) were
necessary to manhood. Mr.. Newbert
had complete equipment Of para
phanalia along with him to the more
grafically illustrate his talk, which
included a gorgeous pink and blue
striped pair of ''gallusses," a vari-
colored lounging robe. which he
called a Roman toga, and an extra
| ordinary belt. which the speaker fin
ally admitted was a surcingle.
Musical Director j. Francis Mac
Nichol made valiant efforts to up
hold his reputation and that of the
club in their rendition of the sew
eral songs last evening. and his final
, effort was entirely successful. Will
fred Perry was the chairman of the
entertainment committee. which had
the arrangements for the program of
last evenings meeting in hand.
