PRAISES METHOD
 OF KEEPING BOOKS

Gardner Green, the expert accountant who has just completed the work of audit ing the city's books from July l, 1907, to May l, 1908, has filed a report of his work. It is highly complimentary of the system in vogue, praising greatly the man her in which it has been improved dur ing the past few years.
 Under it he states that it is possible for the auditor to give the exact finan- cial status of matters in any of the vari- ous departments upon very short notice.
 In reference to the manner in which the books are being kept his report read:
 The general books of the city reflect the exact condition of the city and are kept in manner that must elicit the ad- miration of any one who has cause to in- spect them. All entries are concise and self-explanatory and after the most care full scrutiny, we have failed to find any erroneous entry or any error in the fig ures.
 ''The methods of accounting in this of- flee have been improved from time to time by the auditor and the general books afford controlling accounts wherever prac. ticable, thus making them almost inl- rregnable for errors"

Unions In France

The government in France owns not only the postoffices, but also the tel egraphs and telephones and the rail- roads. The employees of all these gov ernment works are fully organized m unions, and it is their efforts to get better terms from the government that is calling for general strike.
 Premier Clemenceau is determined to assert the authority of the state against these state employees. The trouble arose among the postal em- ployes. and it is among them that the most bitterness is found. All trade unions are strong in France, but here tofore strikes have not occurred in the unions consisting of government employees.
 Premier Clemenceau is inclined it is plain, to resist a general strike, for the state employees are now working
 
 hand in hand with the general fed eration of labor The property inter- ests are alarmed. A general strike would paralyze the trade and business energies of France, and a condition bordering on anarchy might indeed follow.
 Both sides are preparing for great struggle, and the government has in M. Clemenceau strong and capable leader. If the government can out wear general strike it is indeed we'll established. There seems to be no political intrigue in the threatened strike. It seems to be of an economic and industrial nature only.

Malaria'S Numerous Victims

Dr. Ross, the discoverer of the life cycle of the malaria parasite, says the wreck of the ancient Greek civilization } was not due to wars but to the in- sidious work of the malaria mosquito. This mosquito sapped the energies of the people and in the long run killed all the fair-haired members of the race. It checked the spread of Gre clan civilization to southern Italy, and Hellenic arms went down because of ignorance of sanitation
 The malaria mosquito sings in other lands than Greece. There are many of them right here in Jones valley. Scarcely any part of Alabama is free from them, and wherever they exist there we see listless, stunted anemic people. Malaria takes away the nat ural strength and vigor, and all dis eases come in, especially tuberculosis. The basic trouble is malaria, and one cannot get malaria except from the malaria mosquito.
 This waste of human energy and vitality should be stopped. It can bs. Houses. at any rate, cap be
