DISPLAY OF TOYS
An unusual display of toys is in
the north window of J. W. Peeler’s
drug store. It consists of brightly
colored elephants, camels, sheep,
swan, geese, rabbits, etc., also some
well made checker boards. It is the
work of the pupils of the Fifth, Sixth
and Seventh grades of the Jamies- A.
Duncan school, and was; done under
the supervision of Mrs. Katheirine
Preston.
Toy-making is not a regular course
in. the city schools, but the experi-
ment hais proven quite a success. The
work is light and interesting, and
may develop a useful industry in the
child for the future.
In the1 year before the war Ger-
many exported $24,000,000 worth of
toys, of which America used $8,000-
000 worth. But the toy industry is
new in America and the factories
are demanding toy-designers,—and
who knows but what some of iihase
toy-makers whose’ displays are seen
here may secure a place in the future
with the factories?
A toy is as interesting to children
as automobiles are to the grown-ups.
They must have them and American
mechanism should be developed to
isucb a degree as to overshadow any
that are imported.
If you have not Seen the display of
cleverly made toys in the window,
drop by and see them. We have an
idea they would sell easily—if they
are offered for sale.

REDUCTION OF 20.2 PER
CENT IN COTTON CROP
The acreage of the 1919 cotton crop
in the South is 2 0.2 per cent; less than
in 1918, according to a report made
by the committee on reduction of
acreage and condition of the coMpm
crop, presented at 'ifie recent New
Orleans cotton conference. Bulletin
No. 1 of the American Cotton Asso-
ciation, issued through W. C. Bar-
riekman, secretary of that assoeia- 5
tioni, contains this report in full. It
shows that Texas reduced her cotton
acreage 2,382,000 or 20 per cent be-
low the 1918 acreage.
Missouri is credited with the great-
est percentage of reduction, 37.5 per
cent!; with. Virginia second with 33.3
per cent. The number of acres by
which the 1919 crop was reduceu, in
comparison with 1918 acreage, in the
various States, follows: Virginia,
reduced crop 17,000 acres; North
Carolina 322.000 acres; South Caro-
lina 781,695 acres; Georgia 1,113,560
acres; Florida 41,000 acres; Alabama
131,000; Mississippi 489,600 acrfts;
Louisiana 358,743 acres; Texas 2,382-
GOO acres; Arkansas 384,400; Tennes-
see 166,680; Missouri 57,357; Okla-
homa 790,150; • California 38,800 and
Arizona 23,000.
TEXAS LEADS IN ACREAGE.
This same statement shows that
Texas leads all other Skates by a
wide margin in total acreage. It is
estimated that the 1919 cotton crop
contains 9,528,000 in this State alone
as compared with the State’s nearest
rival, Georgia with 4,318,440 acres in
cotton this year.
The approximate acreage of the
1919 crop, by Skates, follows: Virgi-
nia 34,000 acres in cotton; North
Carolina 1,287,000; South Carolina
2,213,305; Georgia 4,318;,440; Florida
126,000; Alabama 2,753,100; Mississ-
ippi 2,774,400; Louisiana 1,194,257;
Texas 9,528,000; Arkansas 2,537,600;
Tennessee 759.220; Missouri 96,625;
Oklahoma 2,370,850; California 155,-
200 and Arizona 69,000.
“Never again,” says the report,
“will the cotton belt see the large
cotton crop of the1 past1. The farmer
realizes that conditions in the South
must be bettered, that it. is contrary
to doctrines of Christianity and civi-
lization, in fact that it! is: inhuman
and barbarous to employ child labor,
regardless of age and woman labor
regardless of age and hours, for the
purpose of producing cotton to sell for
the purpose of merely existing. He
realizes that every person should be
afforded an opportunity to earn a
living, to receive fair wages, reason-
able hours of work and proper work-
ing conditions; that they should have
decent! homes, the opportunity to play
to learn and to worship, and tjo live
as well as to toil and merely exist.

What One Mother Does
Mrs. P. Bennett, 7 Wawayanda
Place, Middletown, N.' Y., writes: “I
have given Foley’s Honey and Tar
to my little boy, and cannot recom-
mend it too highly as I think it is the
only medicine for coughs and colds.”
Fine for croup and whooping cough,
as well as coughs and colds. Con-
tains no opiates—J. W. Peeler.
