the Normal.

While crossing the Chesapeake Bay
recently we met with "A gentleman Of
culture and learning whose young

Of training in the Training School OF
Virginia's only Normal for girls.
Referring to the fact, he said, 81
very much regret the necessity Of my
removal from Farmville, as / was anx-
i0us that her education should have
been completed there" and then said
in commentator Of the training de-
partment Of the school, "After leav-
ing Farmville | entered my child as
pupil Of another school, and meeting
the principal Of the new school a few
days after the opening he asked.
Where has your daughter been train
ed? She is the most perfectly prepared
pupil / ever examined for admission
into pa classes"
We repeat, that's a handsomely and
richly deserved compliment. 1t may
be that the parents Of Farmville who
enjoy the advantages Of this depart
ment ofthe Normal are not just as APP

The Man Who Slaves Himself.

A crisis is arising in the effete east, where under the stress of hard times many men are shaving themselves. The Master Barbers have considered the danger that has arisen to their occupation, and they unanimously think that the hour of action is at hand. Let no one who slaves himself hope to escape, for the Master Barbers say they can tell a self-shaver as far as they can see him.
 The remedy proposed is to cut off the man who slaves himself from the other opportunities of the barbershop. He is to be compelled to cut his own hair to massage his own face, and to shampoo his own head. He is to be boycotted, in other words, in the bar bershop. He cannot go there to read the newspaper, or to discuss the cam paign the war, or the baseball con test He is to be turned out of the club in short.
 The proposition oI the Master Bar bers has not yet been adopted, and the impending blow may be averted in some unknown way, but at present the indications are that boycott will be declared against the man who slaves himself The remedy is heroic, but the Master Barbers say the evil cuts deep in their respective pockets, and that some method must be adopted to combat it. The man who slaves him. self has created an issue in the barber shops, and something will soon be doing there.

Appointive. Not Elective.

"I notice there is a movement on foot to have the city officers all elected by democratic primary, including the chief of police, chief of the fire department, clerk, treasurer, auditor, engineer and tax collector" said Chairman Parker Of the police commission, last night.
 'I am opposed to any such plan In the first place neither of the officers named are elective under the law, but each one is appointed by the respective boards; and these boards should not be allowed such a way of escape from responsibility. The state law makes it tte duty of the mayor and aldermen and of the police commls- sion to make these selections and holds the said boards responsible for the acts of the officials.
 Popular elections cannot be conducive to perfect performance of duty. There must be head to every department; and our w-makers recognized this fact when they gave the city its charter, which plainly directs how these subordinate positions are to be filled. to-wit, by ap- pointment.
 T hope and believe that the city demo- cratic executive committee will follow the spirit and the letter of the law when 1t comes to arranging for the next pri- mary"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-08-28
Reuulatinu the Autos.

The driving of automobiles on the public roads beyond reasonable speed limit is attracting attention in all parts of the country. Many sug- gestions have been made, and q Washington reformer presents an elab- crate schedule, as follows:
 1. Fir first offense, fine not exceeding $25.
 2. Second offense fine not less than $50 nor over s1oo.
 8 Third offense. fine of not less than $25o nor more than $500.
 4 Fourth offense, fine of s25O and con- fscatlon to state of machine. Machine to be sold at public auction.
 5. Fifth offense conhscation of license, disability to secure another; Imprisonment for not. less than one calendar month nor more than two years, and eonfscation of machine as in section 1.
 6. Sixth offense, to render the offender liable to the habitual criminal act.
 A greats many cities have adopted ordinances defining the speed limits of the ponderous and dangerous ma chimes within their respective limits, but such machines are driven far afield. and state statues will soon be needed. The subject will be fully ripe when the Alabama legislature meets in 1907, for the number of machines will at that time have become consid- erable.
 The chief difficulty with any law lies in it's enforcement. The owners of autos are as a rule rich and influen- tial, and the American people are far from the British standard which calls for and secures equal treatment of all by the courts. In our courts there un- fortunately is one rule for the rich, strong man, and one fo- the poor, hum ble man, and an anti-auto statute would emphasize this sad and demor- alizing difference. Theoretically all law breakers stand on one footing, but theory and practice in American courts are two different things.
 An antiauto statute should not therefore be too stringent. It should not become uncomfortable. Still a measure of protection is needed on the public roads, both by pedestrians and users of vehicles drawn by horse or mule against the young locomotives that gasoline and mans ingenuity have rendered possible.
