Poet Laureate.

Guntersvflle Democrat.
 The poetic effort of A. Bruce Ken nedy of The Montgomery Advertiser easily makes him the poet laureate of the association, and entities him to the kindliest remembrance of the editors of the State. Astride the winged Pagassus, he mounted with the Muses to Parnasus's giddy height, weaving into his effusian. the name every edi- tor of note in the State, then descend tue. he resumes without effort his place among the showers of the quill Long may Kennedy flourish, and often may he court the tuneful Nine.

This Is a great Improvement during this hot weather and 1t would be much appreciated by Railway would follow suit in regard to its South Jackson Street line.

That Educational Edition.

T think the excellent educational is- sue of The Advertiser last Sunday re. fleets as much credit on the city of Montgomery and the masses among whom 1t cfrculates as 1t does on the paper itself." sad a well known citi- zen yesterday. Tt indicates that the world outside of Alabama or Montgom- cry realizes the culture that Is pre- eminent here and elsewhere in the State. It shows that the patronage of the educated fathers and mothers of this section of the country is sought far and wide.
 Another thing was brought out more clearly than was ever brought out before by this edition of the paper and that was the superb educational facilities which Alabama institutions have. It is only by advertising the great equipment, physical and intellec- tual. of our own State schools and col legesyihat muah patronage headed for the North and elsewhere can be kept at home where it ought to be kept.
 since the advertisements of the va rious schools in Sundays issue have been read l have heard numerous ex- pressions of surprise that right here in the State are some of the best insti- tutions in the whole South There were no congregations that l could see in the whole symposium. The very best features of our colleges had not been set out as they should have been and that explains IL all"

An Unsightly Place ,

An UnSfSmtly Fiucc.
 Do you know" said a man who fre- quently comes to Montgomery, that the first spot a visitor sees as he comes into Montgomery is probably the dirt lest and most unattractive spot in all the city. l am talking about that stretch of garbage between the pump ing station and the Alabama river.
 T think your Park Commission could very profitably spend year in so inn proving the conditions about the rail- way station that incoming passengers could get a pleasant first impression of Montgomery. 1 am sure no other part of the city calls more loudly for Improvement and beautifying.
 What does a man see when he comes in on the railroad? Why, a stretch of repulsive garbage broken by unsightly and unhealthy looking gullies. The generally unpleasant landscape is broken by a ramshackle bridge which would be a disgrace to the board of County Commissioners of the poorest County fin Alabama. The whole of 1t makes a repellant picture and leaves an unpleasant memory.
 T really think that Montgomery could very profitably spend a large sum of money in making that place at least tolerable. The city might for one thing remove the disagreeable smells that assail the noses of incoming visi- tors.
 "As I said before I think this is a fine field for your Park Commission"
