'(ration club women at low cost ! front textiles produced by southern 1 mills. So far in 1931. the home dem j onstratlon club women have held 51 style shows at which there were 59, 1922 persons. “We feel that the farm women of North Carolina are taking a lead ing part in popularizing cotton fa brics,'’ says Mrs. Jane S. McKlm rhon, assistant extension director at State college. “We began holding | our style or cotton dress shows back in 1922. During that year and in 1930, the women held 43 of these shows, with 21,016 persons attend ing. Including the shows held this spring, there have been 81,538 per sons present on these occasion*.’’ The best thing about the shows was that women who had never appeared on any stage showed no reluctance in entering the products of their handiwork, and they were glad to answer questions as to the cast of the garments and the time it took to make them. In most in stances the dresses cost from one to two dollars and never over three. Grandmothers, mothers and daugh ters all took part In t®e shows and wore their house dresses, suits, aft ernoon frocks and even sports and evening dresses before the assem bled groups of people. Mrs. McKimnion says the women are learning how to make suitable clothes of hecoming colors and properly made. In all cases, the women use material made in North Carolina or nearby southern milts. In many instances they ; have co operated with town women’s chibs in putting on similar demonstra tions and hundreds of town people have seen cotton material worked into lovely dresses. These garments, she says, are in marked contrast to commercial ones which generally cost twice as much per yard as the farm women spend on their' entire costume. EXECUTOR'S Novice.

"In auguratlon on an experimen tal basts of a new interstate tele graph service, conceived and devel oped by Western Union, and to be known as the serial day letter, was announced today by the Western Union Telegraph company. This establishes a new telegrapn service—the first since the advent of the night letter in 1910 and the day letter in 1911. The serial day letter is suited to the use of any.] firm or Individual having occasion j to carry on intermittent commutn-. cation with any one addressee dur ing the course of a day. It may be compared with the “running story” written by a newspaperman on the scene and during the process of a news event and sent to his news-' paper in short "adds,” or sections of a paragraph or more at a time. Substantial savings are made avail able by this service. By using it a firm can increase its volume of telegraphing substantially at a slight increase in cost. The new telegram may be filed in sections during the day for transmission, as the name Indicates, and the number of words which may be sent in one serial day letter Is unlimited. The mini mum charge per day is for 50 words and individual sections are rated at a minimum of 15 words, Appeals For Sale Farm Board Cotton Resolution Urging Board To Sell At A Fixed Price Its Three Mil lion Bairs. * _ At its closing session m Paris.; industrial cotton congress passed a resolution appealing to the United States Farm board to announce a definite program for the sale or its 3.000,000 bales of cotton. The resolu tion urges the board to sell, not at a fixed price, but in such quantities daily as will give the various co operative associations the average price for the period during which the cotton is marketed. The congress also decided to do everything legally possible to ex tend the use of Egyptian cotton and to encourage the development of Indian cotton planting, Russia's cotton acreage of 6,178. -00, an increase of 2,338,000 over 1930, should give an exportable sur plus of 1,000,000 bales over Russian domestic consumption. Consumption of American cotton by soviet Russia has been declining rapidly, drop ping to 80.500 bales in 1930 from 289,000 in 1929 and 429,000 in 1928.
