MIR. HEFLIN REPLIES
 TO ROMAINE BOYD
To the Editor of the Age-Herald:

To the Editor of the Age-Herald:
 I read In yesterdays Age-Heral a com munication regarding me, signed by one MT. Romaine Boyd of Ensley.
 As I read his complaint I wondered if 1t were possible that this mans opposition to me could have been inspired by my having refused to agree if reelected so- lcitor to appoint him as one of my as- sistants; was his criticism inspired by his hunger for the loaves and fishes of office? Was he shaping his creed for his cravings, and employing this means to secure a job?
 And I remembered that not long ago this same MT. Romaine Boyd endeavored, through his friends, to get me to agree if reelected, to appoint him one of the assistant solicitors. They said If you will do this, MT. Boyd will not be a can ddate against you, but will support you for reelection"
 I did not agree to this arrangement. and 1oi in a little while I found that Mir. Ro- maine Boyd had discovered a man, one of my opponents, who would hold out to his eager, longing eyes, the promise of ap- pointment of assistant solicitor. And in the twinkling of an eye, my record as solicitor. which was all right when he wanted me to agree to appoint him, be- came very objectionable to him, and said, yea, verify this man remindeth me of the fellow who sought a position as school teacher. and the good old farmer, trustee, asked him. Do you teach that the earth is round or fiat?' and he re- piled, That depends altogether where I am teaching; I am well up on both sys- tems."
 I have lived in Jefferson county for nearly twenty years, and I do not be- Iieve that the people who know me will be influenced against me in my race for reelection as solicitor by the adverse criticism of one who has 90 recently come into our county. and who is now so much interested in the election of one of my opponents.
 I am grateful to my friends for the interest they are manifesting in my be- half. Very truly,
 sss H. P. HEFLIN.

 --~-~------------------> ------~>---~------>-~ trifing despot Pilot. or in the scourging room looking with tender rebuke at the disciple whose weakness has betrayed him into denial of his Lord o that look how 1t taunted Peter and from that hour transformed him. Or again in the gar- den and the dreadful agony when the sin of the world enters like iron into his soul or at the cross looking down upon the sea of hatred surgng at his feet with infinite compassion and love for each writ there What see you there? Is it any other than the very face of God? Whose else could it be? Men have tried to prove it all a myth or at best but the face of man. but all in vain. Humanity has been haunted by that one face as by no other before or since and never to much as to- day There, and there alone. is hope and very iife-the light of the knowledge of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Banish that face from humanity and you banish hope yes and love and truth and leave man in midnight darkness indeed.
 No wonder the best of art has striven in vain to portray those features and perhaps settle on the conventional ex- pressionless face because of the impossi- bility of giving it expression. Painting and sculpture, poetry and music, have here attained their best and holiest inn mortality. The face of Jesus Christ-it Is the key to the mystery of nature, of his- tory, of the individual heart. Nature re- veals the power and we can wonder but cannot love.
 History reveals the moral justice and grandeur and we can admire. but cannot love. Judicial experience awakens a hun ger for the sight of the real but unseen companion. The face of Jesus Christ is the very face of the Father-and it satis- fies.
 What is the Face?
 It is a face like my face, into which look; hand like mine that reaches out and grasps my own. Behold the Christ stand. The glory of God is the face of Jesus Christ the knowledge of which is light-is life.
 Is knowledge yours, my brother? Is 1t Illuminating all your life? High up toward the summit of one of our northern moun- tains the hand of time has drawn face in the stone. For centuries it has looked out upon the valley below
 The ice and snow of winter cover up It's features, but it remains. The storms pass oyer it. but it is changeless still. The mists rise and the clouds envelope 1t and hide 1t from view, but there it is when they are gone-silent, grand, against the blue vault of heaven. So down upon human history that one face looks, the same yesterday, today, for ever" and humanity. looking up, meets the divine loolk--is inspired, transformed and changed from glory to glory. For 1t is the kindling face of the Father winning the love and affection Of His child and conforming him to His own image.
 Have you drawn that face. my brother, on the tablets of your heart?-a better craving it were than the law of old. and gazing thereon day by day, are you being by 1t changed, moulded to the same divine image from glory to glory?
