Guntersville Democrat: Birmingham is
going after the Odd Fellows convention,
suggests The Age-Herald. That means
that Birmingham will get it.
Savannah Press: The Birmingham
Age-Herald recalls that 'Mr. Blaine was
the last republican nominee to take the
stump, and he was defeated.
Americus Times Recorder: Deposits
in stockings are not to be guaranteed"
says the Birmingham Age-Herald. Do
the girls in Birmingham use saw dust?
Columbus Enquirer-Sun: presidential
bees are responsible for honeyed words"
says the. Birmingham Age-Herald. And
sometimes, quite often in fact, the sting
is just below the honeyed coating.
Savannah Press: They may inform Mr..
Graves of his nomination, but they cannot
assure him of his election. As the Biz
ningham Age-Herald says, sit is not
probable that he will be assigned to
duty in the Senate"
Columbus Ledger: Deposits in stock
ings are not to be guaranteed" says the
Birmingham Age-Herald Do the girls
in Birmingham use saw dust?-Americus
Times Recorder. Hush, Mister, before
you say something you ought not.
Columbus Enquirer-Sun: The Birming-
ham Age-Herald says that the Alabama
state treasury is full of money to over
. flowing. Alabamians need not be alarmed
however. The damage from such an
overflow would not be great.
Montgomery Advertiser: great many
rules for kissing a girl have been pro-
mulgated but none of them ever advises
that the kisser first get the kissees per-
Observation-Disclosures Age-Herald.
| Certainly not--he'd be a molly-coddle
! if he did.
Washington Herald: Great Britain has
just launched a battleship that will make
the Dreadnought look like 30 cents" says
| the Birmingham ge-Herald. If Great
Britain doesn't let up on that sort of
| thing, some of our coast cities are going
| to get swamped sooner or later.
| Admission Star: The Birmingham Age
Herald says that deposits in stockings
are not to be guaranteed. However, the
guarantee of deposits in banks would
doubtless have the effect of transferring
most of the stocking deposits to the
vaults of financial institutions.
! Jackson News: Southern colleges give
too little attention to instruction in Eng
lish," says the Birmingham Age-Herald.
Is it possible that The Age-Herald has
been quizzing some of the recent grad
yates from the Mississippi Agricultural
and Mechanical college?
Portland Telegram: The Birmingham
| Age-Herald says: mo man who is pay
ing as much as s25 month in rent need
| be without a home he can call and con-
slider his own. Some self-denial is need
| ed In order to accumulate the first pay
ment, and after that payment has been
made the rest can be accomplished with
| no expenditure beyond the rent he had
| formerly paid" With a little modfca-
ton, this is true here, and in all except
the very large cities Of the country. Port
land is a larger city than Birmingham,
and ground here is probably higher, yet
most men who are paying $25 month
| or whereabouts rent can manage to save
money for a first payment" and then
with strict economy and little bad luck,
| the rest is easy The s25 q month itself
| IL no more can be saved will within a
few years pay for a modest but COM
Portable home.
