COTTON MARKET

NEW YORK, Feb. IA tP-The cotton
market in mid-afternoon was quiet
but steady at moderate reactions.
Heavy selling on reports of rain
southwest was absorbed on an opening
decline Of to 10 points and the mar
ket rallied on active buying inspired
by large domestic consumption figures
for January than expected. Early
losses were quickly recovered, prices
making new high ground for the
movement later when active months
sold about 90 to 81 points net higher.
But the volume of business tapered at
the higher levels.
Spot steady; middling 1870. Close:
March, 18.21-22.
May, 18.34-35.
July, 18.3940.
October, 18.21-22.
December, 13.20-21.
NEW ORLEANS, Feb ID tP)-Spot
cotton closed steady 80 points up.
Sales 216; middling 1882.

POULTRY CLASS MAKES
TOUR OF ISLAND PLANTS

On Saturday, January 2Sth the
icrliry class from the Experiment
Station at Puyallup made their an
nual visit to the Island.
Headed by Geo. r. Shoup they
arrived at Burton about ten a. m,
where they were met by some of
the Island poultry fanciers.
Among the plants visited We're
those of Il. c. Beall, Highland
Park, w. d. Covington, and Wash
on Island Co-Operative Hatchery.
Much favorable comment was
expressed and one man was heard
TO say. "Well this Island looks the
best to NE of any place we have
visited and / am looking for a 10
cation and am going to make an
other trip to see what | can find. y
The party left on the 3 30 Taco
ma boat.
1t would seem that in the visit.
of tins poultry class rests a fine
opportunity for the Island Com
mercial Club to make its influence
felt by providing some entertain
ment on these occasions. Think
it over.

DRAWS COMMENT
Our New High School

Cry Murdern in the market
place, and each will turn upon his
neighbor anxious eyes that ask
Art thou the man?' '-Vibart.
In one locality we hear the re-
mark, I'VE have always wanted
one good High School but there
would be opposition. AT the
other extremity friend says,
ID be so glad to unite for one
big school il the others would
meet US halfway" 1t would
seem there lacks nothing but
better understanding OF how anx-
iouS we all are, East, West, North
and South to unite on this impor-
tdnt question. The Time 10 get To-
gether is now.
Pleasant it is for the Little Tin
Codes
When great Jove mods;
But Little Tin Gods make their
little mistakes
In missing the hour when the
great Jove wakes.
Surely no one ON Vashon-M -Mauty
but is awake to the fact that op-
portunity knocks at our door, Flu
ture citizens will no doubt even
tually establish one central school
II we do not succeed now, the adj
vantages are 50 obvious.
Our children enter college with
graduates OF the best city high
schools and find sad difference
IN their relative preparedness.
If each man, woman and child
wrought one stone by some lovely
and uniform pattern, what a beau
tiful building we should have. Lei
no one be a stumbling block bat
all work for the success Of our big
new High School.
(Signed)
Salus populi Suprema Lex Esto.
Mrs. Wallace Beall.
Isn't it strange that princes and
kings,
And clowns that caper in saw
dust rings,
And common folks like You and
me,
Are builders Of eternityG
To each is given bag of tools,
A shapeless mass, and d book Of
rules,
And each must make ere life is
flown,
A stumbling-block or stepping
stone.

The letter Of Il Pluribus Unum
in last week 5 paper concerning
one community High School for
the Islands sets forth one side of
tn question only, and very care
fully refrains from touching ON the
other side at all, moreover we are
always more or less suspicious Of
a person who writes on communi-
ty matters and hides behind
Nom de Plume. We have no
means of knowing whether the
writer is a he, a she, or even a
taxpayer. know very little a
bout Latin phrases so will addres-
him in this letter as Mr. ilnum.
There was a time when we
should have had and could have
had one Union High School but
for reasons you all know, we got
two High Schools aud we got then
just whore the people wanted
them. They are new yet, NOT
quite paid for, have turned out
many successful young men ana
women, in fact have given gcuer-
al satisfaction, The Islands to
day are nearing the point where
they can successfully oper rate two
High Schools and the rivalry be
tween said schools would be bene
ficial and healthful.
Mr.. Unum asuggests serappine
both schools, throwing 10000 ol
the taxpayers money into the
waste basket, then mortgage our
future for from fifty ~ a hund-
red thousand dollars for new
school. A site would have to he
selected. an easy matter few will
say. see it different from ex-
pcrience and hate to say what
would happen before it was select
ed. When Burton High was built
it was moved north far enough to
be almost in the center of Island
territory. some will say Il is no
so near the center of population
that means very little. these cen-
ters are always changing every
where. The Burton High was al-
so built with view of extension
to almost any size at any tine
