NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-Continued
favorable weather conditions over
the cotton belt, together with
rather disappointing cables from
Liverpool, brought about a further
recession Of moderate Importance
during today'S session in the local
cotton market. Business was un-
usually light, LARGE portion of
which represented switching opera
tons by local professional traders.
Small losses were registered by
near deliveries after the start on
renewed selling from Liverpool.
spot and wire houses were credited
with selling near months and buying
instant deliveries. Trade demand
was light. Ten January notices
were reported in circulation.

In July, 1925, a young man In hi
early thirties sat swinging leg OF
an idle oil-drilling derrick, as fires
died under the donkey engine. Hf
was alone, deserted-with his 39tf
dry hole. He and his partners hae
gone down $500 feet-had found nc
oil-their money had run out-anc
seemingly, all was over.
Robert F. Garland, native OF
Ohio, was the young man. he nae
"wild-catted" in oil fields all over the
country. This well, in the Seminole
territory of Oklahoma, was no new
experience for him.
However, one outstanding trait In
the makeup of young Garland was
has stick-to-it-ness. He hopped into
a rafting flivver and went to Tulsa
and to a banker acquaintance. he
told him his story, wanted money
but his banker friend couldn't see 1t
young Garland's way.
Then came the real test. He raked
and scraped; called every friend ne
knew: and in all gathered $500.
Back to the well he went. Inc
drill was again started. The big D1
again commenced biting its way down
rock. One hundred feet

In Abraham Lincoln's first political
speech, he said to the voters of San
CANON County:
Every man is said to have his par
ticular ambition. Whether this be
true or not, / can say, for one, that
have no other so great as that of be-
ing truly esteemed by my fellowmen,
by rendering myself worthy of their
esteem"
That was Lincoln's early ambition
and one which subsequent events in
dicate he kept throughout his life.
Contrast with that Napoleon's pro-
fessed life ambition:

In the two the whole life story of
each is contained-their achievements
and their places in the mind of pos
terity.
What is your ambition?
If you didn't have to tell anyone,
but just by wishing after you have
gone to bed could make it come true,
what one thing would you like to do
most?
Would it be to make one hundred
! thousand dollars, put it into safe
bonds, and have an income assured
that would enable you to be protect
ed from want the rest of your life?
/ Would it be to be elected to high
office, to write "best seller" or get
in the movies, or what?
Would it be to have something, to
do something, or to be something?
Just what is your particular ambi-
ton?
There are two things to remember
about ambition.
Ambition of the right sort is one
of the most valuable characteristics OF
worthwhile man. It is nothing to
be ashamed of.

Chamber of Commerce, state taz

be adopted by the next session OF the

numerous offers of support Whicf
have come to Ivan Allen, author o1
the plan, from state senator's and rep
resentatives. 1t is assured that the
amendment will not lack for support
in both houses.
Especially interesting are the let
ters which have poured in upon the
Chamber of Commerce approving the
idea. They are from "dirt farmers
who say that while state taxes are
small, they have been unable to pay
those of last year for lack of rea
! cash. They are from country bank
ers and merchants, who believe the
idea is the most practical and con.
structive ever offered, and they are
from heads of big interests who say
their businesses will be willing to alb
sorb whatever loss the state may sus-
tain in income, because they realize
as never before that their prosperity
depends upon the farmer making
living and a profit.
The present plan exempts 100 acres
of land for every owner, whether ne
lives on it or elsewhere. Able law
wears saw it meets all constitutional
requirements.

Hair Bleaching Dangerous Practice

| know of no bleach that will no
dry and kill the hair if used constant
ly. OF course, preserving the natura
color of the hair is quite different
from bleaching it. Sometimes an egg
shampoo is very good for keeping haii
light. Four eggs beaten up are used
J in place of soap for cleansing and
| latthering.
The lemon rinse, while recommend
ed usually as preservative OF the
light tints. is not as satisfactory, as a
rule. as it is claimed to be.
Cammomie tea is excellent for re-
tanning the natural color of the hair
and can be used with perfect sate'y.
Take about three tablespoonful of
the tea leaves-which you can pur-
chase at any drug store for about fif-
teen cents-and steep them in a pint
of water to which is added little
borax. Strain and use this as rinse
after the hair is thoroughly washed
and free of soap.
A few drops of peroxide may be
used instead of borax. 1t is added
after the tea leaves have been strain
ed. The drying effect of the peorx'de
is offset by the cammomile.
AS matter of fact, if the halr is
smartly done its tint doesn't matter
bit so long as it's natural and the hair
is beautifully groomed.

TOWNS TAKE HOLD
HIGHWAY WORK

Atlanta, Ga.-People along the line
of the interstate highway, or the
G Georgia-Alabama highway as it is
called, from Admission, Ala, through
+, Piedmont, Ala; Borden Springs, Ala,
and the Georgia towns of Esom Hill,
Cedartown, Rockmart and Dallas are
+, taking a lively interest in the road
building project. A mass meeting re-
Gently was held at Piedmont, Ala,
in the interest of the highway, at
which C. r. Porter, business man of
Rome and Cedartown presided.
Mr.. Porter stated that the Georgia
Highway Commission would have the
Cedartown-Atlanta highway complet-
ed sometime next year. This road is
by way of Dallas, and is said to be
the nearest route from Cedartown to
Atlanta. The road is already STAN
dard grade, with the exception OF
certain short links which are being
graded. Already Cedartown citizens
are driving to Atlanta in less than
two hours, according to Mr.. Porter.
The object of the Piedmont meeting
was for the purpose of laying the pro-
ject before the people of Piedmont
and having them interest themselves
in getteing the Alabama highway
commission to designate that end OF
the road for construction in the pro-
gram of the near future.
