NEW YORK COTTON
NEW YORK — The cotton mar
ket oi>encd steady at an advance
of 7 to 14 points. This was not
a full response to tho over holiday
strength of Liverpool, and there
appeared to be considerable sell
ing for Wall Street and Southern
account. These early offerings
were readily absorbed, however,
by commission house and scatter
ed trade buying and prices soon
worked up to 28.40 for May and
25.35 for October or about ten to
15 points net hlghor. Private ca
bles said the strength In Liverpool
was due to moderate trade calling
and light offerings. Rouses with
Liverpool connections were buy
ers here df'tho opening probably
on the differences and over holi
day reporta of a* firm spot situa
tion were reflected by the relative
firm ruling of March contracts
The weather map showed consider
able rain In the south with preci
pitation heavy In parts of Missis
sippi and Georgia.
Reports of an active demand in
the local markef for cotton goods
for deliveries extending into May
at the ton prices for the season
probably helped the tone of the
early market. After selling up to
28.41 for May however, the volume
of buisne8s tapered off and trading
became comparatively quiet liter
In the morning. The early realiz
ing by Wall Street traders, com
bined by southern selling appear
ed to have supplied the Immediate
demand and prices sagged off un
der scattering liquidation. May
declined to 28.25 and October to
25.22 and the market waa quiet
around midday with prices hold
ing within- a few points of last
week’s closing quotations.
Tho market was easier during
the middle of the afternoon unden
a renewal of scattering liquida
tion with May selling off to 28.08
and with the more active months
showing net losses of about 6 to
17 points around 2 o'clock.

Garbed in the time-honored ap
parel of the calling to which they
aspire, three students at the state
college of agriculture were con
spicuous objects of attention about
the campus Monday.
It was the quarterly Initiation of
the Aghons. an honorary frater
nity romposed of students who
have maintained a standard of ex
cellence in their college -work.
Three neophytes were treading
for the Drat time the hot sands
that lead to the Inner sanctum.
The sands In reality were most
ly sticky clay, not particularly
warm, either, according to the can
didates. Belntcd wintry weather
had taken care of that. But the
candidates enjoyed themselves,
and so did the spectators.
Whether by orders of the grand
exalted caliph, at any rate, the
new converts exhibited a lavish
generosity that seemed to please
highly everyone concerned. They
drove a hunch of co-eds to chapel,
stering a royal chaise which In bet
ter days had seen service ns a
drayman’s outfit. They lectured
on corn salves to the various clas-
dlsmlsslng both classes and
professors. They discussed sage
ly the merits of proper nutrition
before the crowded cafeteria, evok
Ing hearty applause from the audi
ence.
S. G. Candler, of West Virginia,
N. D. McRalney, of Elmodel, Gu
am! J. G. Chaffin, of Madison, were
the lucky three to be selected for
membership-by the Aghons at their
last regular moetlng. The Initia
tion will come to an end tonight
with a banquet to be staged by the
fraternity at The Pines. All sre
either Juniors or seniors and stand
high among their classmates.
The Aghon Club was organised
by the junior and senior classes of
1921. Its membership Is confined
to agricultural students who, be
sides diavlng completed the regu
lar scedules of study, have also
gained honors In public speaking
or athletics. Three candidate* are
taken In each term.
