Lime to Get Together.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
Let me congratulate your paper on the
impartial statements, the fairness with
which you conducted the campaign
against the amendment. Also the bold
ness and courage with which you es-
poused the cause OF the liberty and free
dom of the people of Alabama from the
oppressive measures that might have
been enacted against their home rights
had the extremists been able to have
carried their plan. 1 have the pleasure
of knowing that the truthfulncss of your
statements as to the present campaign
cannot be questioned although some
amenders and amendment papers would
bid US not to heed the extravagant claims
of The AgeHerald. but the returns of
the election amply vindicate your con-
sentative claims. Now let US go forward
and elect good prohibition governor
who will see that the prohibition laws
are enforced and show to the people that
we are not dictated to by the so-called
liquor interest, but that the citizens of
Alabama are opposed to putting anything
with doubtful meaning in the constitu-
ton of this state. We realize that 1t
took some courage for US to work and
Y, against the request of q majority
OF our good preachers and some good
women who honestly thought they would
be harmed II the amendment was not
written in the state constitution. Let us
hope and feel that it is for the best for
this great state / shall always feel like
The Age Herald did honestly what the
editors thought would be best for the
people of Alabama. Yours,
J. j. STIvENDER.

Beauties Of Country Life.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
If the farmers of Alabama could be
made to understand how valuable their
lands are destined to become--especially
in sections where white people can live
and work instead of selling their homes
and moving to town--they would remain
on them. The Intelligent and industrious
farmer in this state, If he will. can reap
a rich harvest.
These mountains and valleys will soon
be filed with laborers and mechanics.
They must haze food; II can be grown
here Let the newcomers fill the places
for which they are suited and trained,
and our people continue TO cultivate the
fields. The tiller Of the soil Is the salt
Of the earth, and the American farmer
should and can be the most Independent
man on the green earth.
Improve and beautify your homes and
make them attractive to your children
and supply them with amusement. Above
all things do not neglect to educate
them. am sorry to say to the shame
Of many parents that they do neglect
this most important Of all duties. supply
them with good books and magazines;
teach them good uanrals and to b no.

lite I do desire to see the noble man

vive. Today there are 81 murderers In
the Jefferson county jail. If they had
been educated and taught to obey the law
of God and man their fingers would not
now be dripping with human blood.

lived in peace and in war; in country
and in city. The sweetest memories that
remain with me are those spent in the
