SOUTH SETS NEW BUILDING RECORD. Sixteen Southern States registered a new building record of a billion and a quarter of dpjlurs in 1925, a gain of 44.6 ppr cent, over 1924. a com mercial survey which will be publish ed in tomorrow’s Atlanta Journal re-1 vealed. T>n the basis of recAit national sur veys, the survey published by The Journal estimates that the South last year did one-fifth of the building in the United States. The following States are embraced: Alabama, Ar kansas. Florida. Georgia, Kentucky. Louisiana. Maryland, XUssissippi, Missouri, North Carolina. Oklahoma. South Carolina, Tennessee. Texas. Virginia, and West Virginia. Tliejiis triet of Columbia also is included. High lights in a survey of the South's 1925 progress include: Tile estimated construction in both urban and rural districts is placed in excess of a billion and a quarter dol lars. which is one-fifth of the total for all building outside of New York. Comparisons with 1924 records from 103 cities shows a gain of 44.6 per cent for the section as a whole, the greatest gain on record. £ Outside of Florida. Houston. Tex., made Ihe most spectacular record, with a gain of 103.4 per cent, to reach a total of $35,040,010. It led all cit ies of the farther South in totals, ex cepting Miami. Other cities, other than those in Florida, to gain more than one hun dred per cent, include Gadsden. Ala.: El Dorado. Ark.; Columbus. Ga.: Lake Charles, La.: Bartlesville and Sapulpa. Okla.: Charleston and Greenwood. S. C.: Amarillo. San An gelo and Witehita Falls, Tex., and Petersburg. Va. Texas led all states of the ttirnn in value of its agricultural products.

Petroleum interests express confi dence in the outlook for their indus try ip 1926. A general recovery was felt ’n the closing months of 1925, as consumption increased faster than pro duction. i' NEW MARKETS FOR TEXTILE INDUSTRY. Textile industries of the United States'made a considerable advance in attaining foreign markets during 1925. Commerce department statis ticians compiling the figures today found that the country's exports of cotton cloth during the year amount ed to 477.815,000 square yards, worth $85,011,000. This was an increase of 8.7 per cent, in value. The cotton mills at the same time were more than holdiug their own in supplying the domestic markets, for imports decreas ed. It has been predicted for years that the cotton mills would have to seek new markets if (hey were to greatly increase their earnings. While there is a large volume of business in the United States, the mills can make more money when they get markets in other countries. Also, they can make more t money when they get greater diversification. They can and to a pertain extent now are making a class of goods that heretofore has been imported almost entirely.

CHAPTER Vin Another Springtime and anothet pair of lovers bad come to Ver sailles!, A scant two days after their night adventure Michael called upon Colette with that humility ol gestating love tbhich dissolves In sweet impatience all bulwarks ot social caste. Flustered, delighted, shyly gay, she was swept into tho itifectious mood of his plan—a pic nic to Versailles. To Versailles and the old forest adjacent thereto, one day or an other wend all the attuned young hearts of Paris, there to enrich and Insure the fullness of their be trothal under the tutelage of the storied past, in the scenes of an cient court romances haunted by the gricious shades of lords and ladleb. / And so to the pure fragile beauty of Versailles—coronet suburb of the Queen of the world’s capitals, illustrious monument of a dead monarchy’s burled glories—aad tc the dawning fragrance of the for est came Colette and Michael of a rare morning. After hours of troubled brooding over the emotional turmoil of his life, while the bending walls of his house of cards crackled in his ears. Michael had thought to find peace by sharing with Colette for a day the simple pleasures of the poor The only way to do that was tc step down —or was it up?—-to her plane; and thus it was that this morning the Royal Prince of the Blood of Russia rubbed commoner elbows and breathed the .odors oi ! bourgeglhe crowds, not excluding the übiquitous Latin garlic. What matter how they reached Versatile*— by Metro, barouche, os on foott Enough that they got there In the young hours of the day; they two. alone, bearing a lunch btarfket packed by Colette , with the ten fumbling thumbs p! her nervous hands; enough that they wandered into the forest anti drank deep of the cup of heart witchery there In the half lights aad murmuring stillnesses of the old woods. Colette was swiftly lost In the facile ecstasies of the easily sat isfied. But Michael was more fundamen tally stirred; for him, the transi tion to simple raptures was not'' painless or brief, but a difficult parturition through the unyielding neek of cynicism. Once gained, however, his joy was solid and sustained; he heard the Pipes of Pan in the great, soughing treetop arches ot this enchanted, green aisled Cathedral .wherein the steaming dews of morning were rlslhlir like Incense into the leafy, choirs overhead. Something vi brated within Michael; some dls used chords of his'soul. What civilised man has not, when newly ro-experlenclng the spell of the outdoors, been touched by this poignant, bittersweet re dundancy of mepaory; by a sadden spiritual return tea belief in fairies and all good things? "We’re Big Babes In the Woods," he laughed gleefully, the evbr, ever hoy In him strummed by a light bow of far-away days and dreams.
