AND OBTAIN CHEAP INSURANCE, STORAGE AND MONEY. OFFICERS : Back to School. After a week of festivities, of greeting from the home folks, and of entertainments of various kinds, the young college boys and girls of Alba ny are again departing from home to take a live months’ draught at the fountain of knowledge. It was a great time that these folks had Christmas week. The children, no doubt—that is, most of th^m—counted the days for months previous, until Christmas day, but they did not ex perience the same longing that these college boys and girls felt, for the children were at home, while some of the college folks in fact, most of them, had been among strangers for months, and had never been away from father and mother, brother and sister, and friend- that long before In their lives. They counted the minutes, watching the hands of the clock as they moved around the dlnl, so slowly,, ever so slowly. They became fidgety fully a week before tboy left, and_ studies were forgotten in ’lie anticipation of Iho borne coming. Now they have ex perienced all the joys of home again, with added Christmas joys thrown in, and they are returning to college, with sadness in their hearts, but resigned to the inevitable. The following young ladies left this morning for college: Misses Kathleen Gilbert, Llewellyn ttnse, Mary Clark, Maria Mitchell, Wallace Adams and Annie Pate for the Georgia Normal and Industrial College at Milledge- vllle; Misses Haze! Pray, Hazel Pope, Cena Whitehead and Eula Jones for Athens, to attend Lucy Cobb; and MIrscr Sudio Crews and Mary Mat thews for Forsyth to attend Monroe College. Spots readily bring the price of Jan uary contracts at any point in the South. Pretty healthy condition. Liverpool closed steady at a net decline of 11 points for the day. \ Manchester reported steady demand from China and India with prices grad ually hardening. New York wired: "Dry goods peo ple report Chinese threatened boycott not felt.” General opinion on ginners' centers around 9,700,000, and anything above this would cause temporary decline. From December 12 to January 1 last year, 1904, the ginning averaged 33,000 per day. This ginners’ wUl tell the tale in language which all can understand. Mr. Price tells us that even with the small crop we have raised tfila year there is going to be a surplus at the end of the season. The world Is consuming about 12,500,000 of Amer ican cotton a year but if there is to he a surplus out of a crop of about 10,000,000 bales it will he up to the "Hickory Shirt” fellows to give them a crop of 8,000,000.
