Colonel Wiley is endorsed for re-elec- ton by the press of his own District and all over the country. One of the strong est editorials in the State press is taken from The Tuskegee News and 1t presents the true situation as to Colonel wiley's standing and his ability to do service to his people and the State.

 "A. A. Wiley is just such Congress- man. and have no doubt thta he will be reelected"
 T have voted for Wiley for every office he has held and have no regrets about that"

Crenshaw Critic.
 There is some talk of Mr. Graves of Montgomery entering the race against Colonel Wiley. If that would happen there are some people in crenshaw who will not forget that Colonel Wiley saved the homesteads of quite a lot of poor people who had evictions staring them in the face. Farmers of Crenshaw, re- member that 1t might have been you in- stead of your neighbor who was being dispossessed. until Wiley said to the rich corporation, by statute, Spare that mans home"
 If opposition comes look after the in- terest of the man who saved your neigh bor's home.

simplicity and sweetness Of charac-

Pope took out his watch and looked
at IL. Ii was an old, much-rubbed,
much battered nickel watch, attach
ed to his waistcoat by an ancient
leather bootlace. One of the noble
men present. who noticed this hum
BILE timepiece, could not restain his
horror at the though that the head
of the church should have so poor a
watch. He instantly took out his
own watch-a valuable lever, with
monogram in jewels on the back
and begged the Pope, as great
favor. toexchange watches with him,
that he might carry away personal
souvenir of the visit. But the Pope
refused the offer with great vehe-
mence. MY mother gave me this
