MR. D. C. COLLIER, WHO IS NOW TOURING
EUROPE, WRITES INTERESTING LETTERS
TO HIS FATHER, MR. J. C. COUJER
Hotel Cecil Strand,
Lo/tdon, W. C.,
Saturday, Dec. 20, 1924.
Dear Father:—
Arrived here yesterday afternoon
from Manchester, coming via Derby
and Leicester. I enjoyed the trip
very much, the country is simply
magnificent and I don’t believe any
one has ever exaggerated this fact
in the least. I rode on an express
train at 60 miles per hour, the road
beds are much better than ours, also
dining service. At first I did not
care for the English type of train,
but I believe they are better—one
can stay much cleaner than in ours,
the coaches are clean and each com
partment contains various scenes of
England visited by the railroad sys
tem. The whole country side is
nothing more than a flower garden
practically all the way from Man
chester to London. In going over
to Manchester from London at the
beginning of my trip I went via Staf
ford and Birmingham.
I was very glad indeed to leave
Manchester and its smoke ladened
air. It is rated as a tradesman’s
town, yet the people are very kind
to one. I feel much better physi
cally (in fact I rate about 100%).
The cold I had was certainly hard to
throw off, but I had a first-class doc
tor in Manchester who prescribed,
and I took excellent care of myself
by staying in out of the fog and bad
weather. Spent Monday in Liver
pool, awfully bad day. Two firms I
talked with were bearish on cotton.
Enclosed find one cotton letter which
is explanatory. England, as you
will note from the papers will short
ly erect traffic walls to save them
selves from German manufacturers.
Saw some very interesting textile
plants this week at Manchester, have
obtained some very valuable expe
rience, am only sorry that I didn’t
have more experience myself as I
could have assimilated so much
more. Was unable to go through
several plants on account of lack of
time so may go back to Manchester
for four or five days about the first
of February before I sail.
London you know is a wonderful
show town. I saw last night “The
Street Singer,” a nice musical come
dy, however not so good as “Madam
Pompadour,” which I saw here sev
eral weeks ago. Purchased for Jec
a book of the entire music used by
this comedy company.
I went to the House of Parliament
today, also saw picture making. It
was wonderful, very grand and mag
nificent yet it does not inspire one
with the awe of the West Minster
Abby or Castle in Edinburg. To
morrow, Sunday, I travel from Lon
don to Paris, arriving there about 6
P. M. I bought Milwood an English
pipe and Harrison H. a pair of golf
stockings. You can write me at
Rome, Italy. lam quite anxious to
reach Paris in order to get my mail
which has been holding there for
three or four days.
Love to all the family and my
friends. Devotedly,
DURWARD.

Dec. 14, 1924, Saturday.
Dear Father and Mother: —
Am feeling very much better, the
air here is nice and pure—quite a
relief from the Manchester smoke
and fog. Arrived here this after
noon—spend Sunday, and on Mon
day I go to Liverpool for one day.
This morning I went through the
Shaw-Jardine Cos., spinners of
to Egyptian thread yarn, also
yarn for the fine lace trade. I have
had a very busy week. Tuesday
next I shall spend with Mr. Geo. M.
Nuttal inspecting his plant. Wed
nesday with Mr. Wilford Hilton,
Thursday at Rockdale and Friday
and Saturday the 19th and 20th I
spend in London, getting to Paris the
night of the 21st.
I have seen some very large and
interesting plants this week. It is
most wonderful how these old plants
turn out the quality of merchandise
they do with much old machinery.
The cotton business is
very busy here. I had no idea as to
the quantity which is now being
shipped to the States. American
cotton is due to go much higher;
Egyptian is 25 to 30 per cent higher
now than last year—right around 60c
per pound.
The English people are certainly
meat eaters, very few vegetables are
served, fruits (good) are hard to
get, practically no American fruit
for sale. The Georgia sweet potato
and pecan is unknown —this would
be an opportunity for someone.
Am sending some sample swatches
of woolen cloth directed to myself
for caps, please hold until I return..
Will close as it is time for dinner.
Love to all. DURWARD.
Manchester, England,
Thursday, Dec. 13, 1924.
Dear Father:—
Just in from a trip to the follow
ing plants which I have inspected
very closely: Gradwell Weaving
Mills, Ltd., Accrington - Stanwell
Spg. Cos., Ltd., also the Textile Ma
chinery Works of Howard & Bul
lough. Will spend Friday with Mr.
J. Barber Lomax, who will show me
two spinning mills, one weaving and
one bleachery. Saturday I will
spend with Mr. Heaps, manager of
the Shaw-Jardine, Ltd., here at Man
chester and Monday with Frances
Summers Cos., Ltd. This week I
have been busy inspecting —on
Monday the Talbot Spinning &
Weaving Cos., Tuesday inspecting
Whitworth & Mitchell and Wever-
Hollis Mills, Ltd., one one of the
Lancanshire Associated bleacheries.
Am feeling much better today as
I have practically gotten rid of my
cough. I understand that the pro
duce of 35,000 looms on go
mostly to the United States and
Egypt, also I am reliably informed
that quite a large number of mills
are changing from Egyptian back to
American cotton on account of the
difference in price as Egyptian cot
ton now is very high. Trade here
is much better, most cotton mills
running full time. Mr. Hollas pre
dicts higher American cotton. If
October cotton can be bought for 20
to 22c I think it a good buy. The
proposition is certainly large
ly dependent on the process
as well as the weaving.
Shall be here all next week and
will not arrive in Paris until Sun
day, December 20th. Think I shall
run over to Southport on the coast
Sunday to get away from the fog;
shall spend one day next week iji
Liverpool. Will write a long letter
next time.
Love to all the family and best
wishes for Xmas.
DURWARD.
COTTON LETTER TO MR. D. C.
COLLIER FROM STRAUSS &
CO., LIVERPOOL, ENG.
M. D. C. Collier, Manchester.
Dear Sir:—
We have received your letter of
introduction from Mr. Williamson
and are sorry that you had no time
to stop in Liverpool for an inter
view.
It is most difficult at present to
express any definite views on the
Liverpool cotton market. Every
body is more or less convinced that
the American crop is going to be
around 13,500,000, excluding linters,
which will be ample for this season
and give us a fair carry over into the
next. On top of this we feel cer
tain that the spinning value of this
crop is very much greater than last
year, owing to the wonderful open
Fall, this giving us very little low
grade cotton. The present large
crop has come at a very opportune
moment for Lancashire, a6 the world
is short of foods and has been un
able to pay the high prices we have
had the last few years. Spinners
are now working with a fair margin
of profit and the majority are well
supplied with orders, and for quick
delivery a good premium can be ob-
tained. The “Short Time” move
ment has stopped any over produc
tion and spinners are now working
40 hours a week instead of 26%
hours earlier in the year.
Lancashire will this season proba
bly use about 2,250,000 bales Ameri
can and the whole world’s consump
tion will be around 12,600,000 ac
cording to the present rate of con
sumption.
We do not think prices will go
very low, owing to the uncertainty
of being able to produce another big
crop next year.
This year the weather for the
plant was practically ideal and we

shall be agreeably surprised if such
conditions again favor the plant dur
ing the next growing period as we
are so accustomed to have one large
crop, followed by several small ones.
At the present time, both here and
in America, there has been a good
deal of buying of new crops, when
ever Liverpool gets near 12d.
The Egyptian market stands on its
own this season, chiefly owing to the
small Sakellaridis crop. The differ
ence between Egyptian and Ameri
can futures has widened out from
500 Liverpool points to nearly 1500
points, a widening of lOd per lib.
■On top of the small crop it is re
ported that a good deal of Pilion cot
ton has been mixed with Sakel cot
ton and a large quantity of this cot
ton was rejected on Docket in Alex
andria. This left Alexandria firms
“Short” and the consequence is the
present high price of Egyptian.
Some of our Alexandria friends
write us that they do not think there
will be much Sakellaridis cotton left
in January and what is left will com
mand very fancy prices.
The dearness of Egyptian has cre
ated a very big demand for long sta
ple cotton, both American and other
growths, which have gone up sev
eral pence per pound in basis and
this basis will remain high as long
as the Egyptian market keeps up.
We shall be very glad to see you
in Liverpool at any time and if we
can be of any further service to you
kindly let us know.
Yours very truly,
STRAUSS & CO.

Quick Way to Stop Them
Persistent, racking coughing, which
by rapidly weakening your entire sys
tem lays you open to more dangerous
infections, can be checked often with the first
dose of that old-time tried and proved remedy
—Dr. Bell’s Pine-Tar Hor.ey. And there’s a
reason. Doctors say there is nothing like pine
tar to quickly loosen and remove tne phlegm
and congestion which are the direct cause of
the coughing, while the honey both gives a
pleasant taste and helps soothe irritation. It
is often astonishing how quickly thiscombina
tion relieves the stubbornest cough.
But be sure you get the original Dr. Bell’s
Pine-Tar Honey, and no substitute. Dr. Bell’s
has been known for overaquarterof acentury
as the best. It is scientifically compounded of
just the right proportions of pine -tar, honey
and other quick-acting healing ingredients
which the best doctors have found to aid in
quick relief. Contains no opiates or other
harmful drugs, so can be given even to young
children—fine for spasmodic croup. If you
want the best, a medicine that often relieves
the severest cough overnight, make sure you
get Dr. Bell’s. Onlv3oc at any good druggist’s.

WHEN YOUTH NEEDS
ADVICE FROM PARENTS
A neighbor of mine used to pride
himself on having left to his children
the choice of their future careers.
“I’m quite willing to give them a
start in any profession or business
they decide on,” I have often heard
him say, “but they must choose for
themselves; then if they don’t like
what they choose they won’t be able
to turn round and say I forced them
into something they didn’t fancy.”
He meant well and honestly be
lieved he was doing the right thing
for them in leaving them absolutely
unfettered and unrestricted as re
gards their future livelihoods. But
now he regrets his attitude of non
intervention. He has reasons for
his regret.
His children, not realizing the im
| portance of making a definite choice
and abiding by it, have allowed pre
cious time to slip by before deciding
what they want to do. Though they
are intelligent and presentable and
know a little about a good many
things, they do not know enough
about any one to extract a living
from it
Immature of judgment, swayed
often by conflicting impressions and
suggestions, not one youth in a hun
dred possesses sufficient steadiness
and balance to set a course toward a
future career through the changing
currents of school life.
And this is where parents can help.
First in advising, not compelling, the
future career, and, when once n
choice is made, keeping their child on
the road toward it, unless and until
his or her unsuitability for it be
comes obvious.
The rewards of life go to the
owner of a special knowledge; this
is acquired only after years of plod
ding and by “sticking to it.” Youth,
faced with the prospect of a long
period of drudgery, is apt to turn
aside unless someone is at hand to
encourage and support. Who can do
this better than father?—A Father
in the Continental Edition of the
London Mail.
