school and hospital plant.

"This is the thing for which we
have dreamed, and visioned and
worked for ten years." declared
President J. J. Mullowney in OPEN
ing the program.
Following the reading of a tele-
gram from President Hoover, Doctor
Mullowney introduced President w.
]. Hale of the Tennessee State Agri-
cultural and Industrial College, with
the comment that at is very fitting
that this message from him who rep
resents us all without regard to color,
race or creed, should be followed by
one of the outstanding colored edu-
Gators of the country"
Representing the state supported
schools, | congratulate you on your
location" President Hale told Doc
tor Mullowney and his associates.
Tennessee was the first state to
free her slaves, and it was Tennes-
sees legislature which surprised the
nation by saying that from now or
there are to be no white colleges ant
colored colleges so far as state ap
preparations are concerned-just col
leges to share alike"
Meharry Medical College was es
tablished in 1876 as the medical de
partment of Central Tennessee Col

It was natural that young Pierre should take a generous part in am- ateur dramatics, and in this he was so like his actress mother that those who had known Harriet in her girlhood whispered anew the sorry old scandals which had never had other foundation than the imagination of little minds.
 Poor Pierre" the villagers would say with a doubtful shake of their heads. Hes nice boy, but he can't never amount to much with the start he got from that actress maw and that good-fer- nothing old actor, Tony Latour.'
 Because Orchard Hill was only a small country village the relation ship between Pierre and Bruce Carey continued almost as if they lived under the same roof. When ever an occasion arose the older boy asserted his authority, and while Pierre outgrcw his childish fear of the domineering Bruce, his habit of yielding to him remained. This difference in the natures of the two boys was most noticeable to watchful Old Tony in the matter of their mutual interest in Ann little girl whom Pierre at a very early age had decided to

accounts and other business at the
outset. Correspondents are the Bank
of New York g. Trust Company, one of
the Oldest banking institutions Of New
York, and the Barnet National Bank Of
Jacksonville, Fla.
Prompted by conditions which have
proved disastrous to many investment
as well as banking situations in recent
months, the new institution, which
holds a Florida State charter and will
be a member of the Federal Reserve,
will strive for 100 per cent safety and
liquidity under a policy which will en-
able 1t to wind up its affairs. If neces-
sary, at any time, practically without
loss to the organizers or stockholders,
and to pay deposits in full at any time
payments are demanded. Another fea-
ture Is that 1t is expected arrangements
will be concluded shortly with one Of
the largest surety companies in the
country to guarantee deposits.
Income from Services.
Inasmuch as the loan business of
most banks is a liability rather than
a source of profit, services in all bank
ing and trust matters will be the prin-
cipal source Of the institutions income,
and its customers will be those having
present and prospective interests in the
State of Florida Income will also be
derived from a safe deposit business.
At the same time it is pointed out by
the organizers that the institution was
not formed for the purpose of COM
petition in the Miami banking field.
With greater number of former Miami
banks closed, the opportunity to render
banking and trust company service
along these lines of maximum safety to
depositors is described as considerable.
The situation with regard to the
securities of some of the Florida munich
palities, in which the Florida banks
have been heavy investors, has made
the idea of investing the banks funds
in United States Government securities
an all-important one from the stand
point of being able to maintain a liquid
condition at all times.

COTTON PRICES HOLD
NEAR 6-CENT LEVEL
Advance in First Part of Week Cut
Down During Last
Few Days.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 2a.-Trading
in the cotton market during the past
week has been restricted in the first In
stance by more or less uncertainty with
reference to December notices and later
by the Thanksgiving day adjournment.
Under these conditions business was
largely Of a holiday character, and
while a sharp advance followed the
appearance of the stopping of the first
December notices. prices later eased off
to approximately the Scent level for
January contracts during yesterdays
trading.
There has been some Southern SELL
ing during the progress of the decline,
but offerings from that source have
been comparatively light, and the pres
sure has been attributed largely to fur
Their liquidation Of old long accounts.
The recent action of the grain, silver
and securities markets has evidently
disappointed buyers of late last month
and the expectation of general imitation
In commodity values has been modified
to some extent.
At the same time there has been no
indication of increased selling pressure
in the South, and while the high basis
is said to be checking demand from
some sources current offerings appear
to have been readily absorbed. Co
operative interests and japanese ship
perS are reported to have been among
the best buyers in the South, and there
has been q good deal of comment on
the volume of the demand from Japan
during the week.
Toward the end of the week there
may have been some local selling in
anticipation of increased Southern spot
offerings between now and the end
year holidays or on apprehensions that
the talk Of renewed efforts to secure
export debentures or the adoption Of
the equalization fee might act as
check to foreign buying.
