Wb WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW
glpCew York. Nov. 20. —The cotton j
ejuarket has been comparatively quiet j
; during the past week. Uncertainty \
%.s to the of tomorrow's gov
ernment report has evidently restrict- 1
mi fresh ventures and trading has been j
Wnfined trt the evening up of old com*
Ifaitnients for the most part. There j
■lave been flurries of hedge selling on
• the advance* and some price fixing
■on the defines and broadly speaking.:
offerings have shown a tendency to'
increase around or above the 20-cent !
brtf'.fnr contracts while j
there has been more buying on de
clines from that figure. As a re- 1
Mnlt fluctuations have been irregular,
but within a comparatively narrow
grange with the trade evidently wait
ing for a more convincing view of the
fcrop. or for further developments in
the goods ami spot markets. Ad-
Vices of receipts in raw cotton cir
cles here 'have tended to create an
impression that while current bu*i
jWss in goods was held in check by!
Uncertainty regarding future values, a
large business was pending and would
probably be placed as soon as the crop
question or the <*otton markets be
came more settled. Reports from
the spot markets have indicated no
particular pressure of offerings and
toward the end of the week it was
that the increased discounts ■
on low grades were attracting a bet-!
ter demand for such cotton. There 1
pjras also a feeling here that with bet-
Iwpr weather late cotton might possibly 1
• he -aved in rather better condition ,
■than apprehended previous and up to
•the close of business last night the
market seethed to expect that tomor
row's government report would show
very little change in the indicated
yield as compare,) with the last fore-’
Cast. Meanwhile, rite tirst definite
estimate of the world's probable eon-1
sumption for this season by any of
the recognized trade authorities has,
made its appearance, private cables |
pjooting a British statistician as fore- 1
casting it ut 14,300.000 bales, includ-•
• ing 2.70fM(t0 bales for Great Britain.
These were supposed to be exclusive
of linters and were regarded as point
ing to an increase of about 1.000.000
bales over last season's total. So far,!
Comparatively little cotton has reach- 1
■ed here front the south for contracted
delivery ajjd the December premium
over January widened out to about SO
points.

x gives us great pleasure to announce NO-NOX
OUT new Motor Fuel - NO-NOX is the product
gsL p2«jk of many months of exhaustive scientific and
jMgfl chemical research by a staff of our own skilled
chemists, infinite care being given to all de
tails to insure the absolute perfection of NO-NOX Motor
Fuel. Strenuous nights and days were spent in our thor
oughly equipped laboratories by these scientists before NO
NOX Motor Fuel was perfected. Hard grilling road tests
followed to develop any weakness overlooked in the labor
atory, and we are now ready to offer the most efficient anti
knock fuel in the world.
Manufactured in one refinery under the same skillful super
vision and from the same grades of crude, it is continuously
uniform which means much in carburetion. When the car
buretor is once properly adjusted it requires no further

MECHANICAL KITCHENS
Many of the appliances that adorn
ed the kitchen walls of our forefathers,
and were essentials of that day, are
to be found today chiefly in museuiaa.
One in my mother's kitchen that waa
of particular interest to me waa i
candle meld, for in my mind it marked
my mother's superiority aa a house
keeper because it was made to mold
twelve candles at a time, while meet
of those in the neighborhood could
only make four or six.
As long as the beef for our larder
• was butchered and cured on the farm,
, the molds were necessary to utilize
1 the tallow. However, as slaughter
• Uig and curing of meats became cotn
-1 mereialized. the candle molds in moth
-1 ef’a kitchen gave way to tba great
I mechanical appliances in commercial!
- centers for manufacturing candles on
I n large scale. Candles later were
: replaced by keroacne lamps, and they
I in turn by electric lights.
THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
The advent of commercial canning
of practically every food commodity
has likewise revolutionized modern
kitchen appliances, until today, in
stead of the housewife laboriously pit
ting tiie cherries one at a ritne or
grinding them through a small hand
run cherry pitter, cherries are being
pitted for her in the commercial can
neries on machines with a capacity
of several tons a day. The evolu
tion of canning machinery has also
changed the hand shelling of peas >to
change care should be taken to see that the mixture is
not too rich as NO-NOX works best with a thin mixture,
thus insuring economy. With NO-NOX, perfect combustion
takes place at just the right position of the piston head
which entirely does away with carbon knocks or motor
detonation —promoting greater efficiency of the engine,
smoother operation of the car on the road, in traffic, and
especially on heavy grades.
This wonderfully efficient gas is guaranteed to be Non•
Noxious, Non-Poisonous and no more harmful to man or
motor than ordinary gasoline.
NO-NOX is priced only three cents per gallon higher than
That Good Gulf Gasoline.
Drive to the nearest Gulf Service Station and try it out. It
is readily distinguished by its color.
m“ i -al threshing in great ma-1
chines having a capacity of many
wagon loads. Even the lowly bean
fc< no longer snipped by hand, as
the ingenuity of the horticulturist baa
developed a atringless variety of green
beaq and the mechanic baa evolved
machinery for removing the snips.
Ho tne modern day kitchen has its
mechanical appliances, not hong on
the kitchen walls like tiros* of tba
forefathers, but installed in the grant
factories devoted to the preparation of
foods. The luscious fruit* are no
longer prepared by band but are
peeled, cored and sliced mechanically;
vegetables are washed, graded, blanch
ed and placed in the cans by great
mechanical devices capable of handl
ing the products of entire fields in a
day. Home large canneries are in
fact equipped with machines of suf
ficient capacity to' prepare 1,40(1,000
servings in ten boors.
Tbs modern kitchen has it* many
mechanical appliances, but they are
only means of farther reducing the
amount of time and energy the house
wife must give to the preparation of
the daily meals. The efficiency of
the modern housewife is not measured
by the hours She spends in the him
en, but by the results she gets.

MUMMY RUINED
BY COMBUSTION
Carter Finds li Impossible to Get *
body es Young Pharoah Out of Gold
(Mto.
Cairo, Nov: 20.—The condition or
the mummy of Tut-.Vnkb-Araen has
been found to bd such that it will lie
impossible to remove It from its gold
eotfift. Doctors Derry and Raich Bam
di have announced in a 1 report on (lie
unwrapping of the mummy, which luib
occahied seven days.
The experts announced that the
mummy i< firmly glued to the bottom
of its gold coffin with a dried pitch
like material. The mask, reaching
to the upper part of the thorax, is
also fixed to the coffin, making the re
moval of the mummy impossible. It,
also will be futile to attempt to make
x-ray pictures on account of the num
erous materials covering the hotly to
the knees. „
Wrecked by Combustion.
A form of spontaneous combustion
Was found to have destroyed some of
the bandages, causing the skin and
underlying tissues to become extreme
ly thin and brittle.
This condition exposed certain '
joints, enabling the age of the king
at the time of his death to be estiA
mated fairly accurately at about 18
years.
The king evidently was of slight
build, and the belief of the experts'
that the statues and effigies already
fouhd are really portraits finds con
firmation in the face, which is now
exposed. V. ■*('
Articles Classified.
The report says that the objects
found with the body may be classified
in three categories amuletic, or per
taining to charms, royal objects and
personal belongings. Those objeets
have made it possible to reconstitute
the whole royal regalia of the 18th
dynasty. The refined taste displayed
in the jewelry equals anything prev
iously know, the experts report.
The most important objects discov
ered with the body are:
On the head, a royal diadem with
insignia of vulture and serpent.
Around the neck, amulelic figures*
and divinities.
On the chest, numerous pectorals,
including various amulets in 16 layers.
Os these some comprise many hun
dreds of sections of elaborate eon
crusted elmhonno work.
On the arms, 11 magnificent brace
lets.
Besides those on the hands there
are 13 massive rings of various ma
terials.
Around the waist two girdle* to ‘
which are suspended two daggers.
About the limbs a royal apron
composed of sections of inlaid gold
work.
Upon the feet, golden funerary san
dala. Each toe was encased in a
gold sheath.
In addition n great number of am
ulets were found, the object of these
being to protect the pharoah in his
journey through the underworld. No
traces of documents have thus far
been discovered. >

MARRIAGE NO HINDRANCE
TO GETTING EDUCATION
Aa the Caae of~Mrs' Evelyn Hall
Turner WTO Testify.
Durham, N. C., Nov. 20.— OP) —
Marriage is uo hindrance to the se
suring of an education, ,nor of at- *
talking high scholastic records, if
the case of Mrs- Evelyn Hall Turner,
senior at Duke University, can be
taken as an example.
Mrs. Turner was recently initiated
into the Phi Beta Kappa nntionnl
scholarship fraternity, and headed
the list of 10 initiates who made the
highest grades at Duke University
‘luring the past three years.
Mrs. Turner is the wife of Dent
Turner, young Statesville attorney.
She became Mr. Turner’s bride when
a sophomore, both she and her hus
band returning to college the .next
yedr. Mr. Turner graduated from
the Duke law school last year, and is
now practing law with his father,
W- D. Turner, former Lieutenant-
Governor of North Carolina.
Other seniors initiated into the
bational scholarship fraternity are:
Miss Alice Judd, Varina; \V. Free
man Twaddell, Durham; W. R.
Blakeney, Monroe; W. C. Maxwell,
Goldsboro: Miss Elizabeth' Morrlss,
Orford, Miss Elizabeth Roberts, New
Bern; F. G. Slaughter, Berea; Earl
P. McFee, Asheville; and JR L.
Jerome, Goldsboro.
Southern Methodism Had No Part in
Attack on Smith.
Now York, Nov. 10.—Bishop James
Cannon, Jr,, champion of the commis
sion on temperance and social service
of the Methodjst Episcopal Church,
South, tonight issued a statement
pointing out that his commission had
no connection with the board of tem
perance. prohibition and public morals
of the Methodist Kpihcopal Church,
whi<h recently attacked the proposed
candidacy of Governor Smith, of New
York, for the presidency.
Bishop Cannon, however, criticised
Governor Smith for hte stand against
prohibition. He declared it was [‘un
thinkable that a southern Democrat
-approving the national prohibition
law would support Governor Smith
for president.”
“The break down in law enforce
ment in New York is directly attri
butable to the position of Governor
Smith in the prohibition law,’*, he
said.
