Oklahoma City.—
Oklahoma's cotton crop will reach
750,000 bales If frost holds off until
November 5, according to Mr. Round-
tree of Paris, Texas, head of the firm
of Roundtree & Co., who was In Okla-
homa City last week. MY. Roundtree
says he has made a study of the cot-
ton situation in Oklahoma and de-
clares planters have no reason to com
plain at the present time. He esti-
mates the crop for this state at 775,000
bales in case frost comes by Novem-
ber 1.
For twenty years the average time
ol the first killing frost each fall was
found to be November 5. Within the
past five years there have been sev-
eial early frosts and the average for
twenty-five years Is brought down to
November 1. The weather at present
Is ideal for cotton, according to Mr.
Roundtree and every day of sunshine
means hundreds of bales more.

Peabody, Mass.—Twenty children,
most of them girls ranging in age from
7 to 17 years, lost their lives in ,i fire
which destroyed St. Jdhn'.i parochial
school. Another girl was fatally ln-
jurfd, while others were less severely
hurt.
The 600 children had entered their
class rooms for the morning session
when the fire was dlscoveied, and al-

seized a large number as they neared

front vestibule that nearly all the
bodies were found.
All of the sisters escaped but Mother
Superior Marre Carmelita was serious-

was said her Injuries probably were
not fatal, although she is prostrated by
the disaster and the suffering of her
charges.

reported It to the mother superior,
and the fire drill was quickly started.
A few days ago in a practice drill the
building was emptied within two min-
utes. It would have been cleared ln
almost the same time but for the fall-

in the front vestibule. Over her body
