 Other business houses in the main part of the city that were only slightly dam aged have been remodeled and improved
 The spirit of progress is very marked in every part of the town and the people are looking forward to still greater devel- opment in the next F months.
 The farmers in this section have been blessed with good crops in the past few years and business is exceptionally good. Albertville has hardly felt the effects Of the recent depression in the business world that touched mainly the industrial centers. The farmers in this section, which is known as the Sand mountain region, are progressive and thrifty. They are building nice homes and are above the average In that most of them own their homes and make their provisions or their farms.
 Truck and fruit growing are coming in dustries and for the promotion of this en- terprise a strong and progressive truck growers association has been formed which is already showing good effects.
 A stranger in this community now could not realize that one year ago this beauti- ful town was a scene of dreadful wreck age, death and suffering. It required courage to rebuild the town on the wilder ness of ruin and suffering that smote this section, but these people have been equal to the task and the town of beauty and promise that has arisen is a monu- ment to their courage and enterprise

deeply impressed with the Missouri spirit of show me- and unless the railroads can show the captains of finance that not only is the original investment safe, but additional capital will earn interest-such additional money so necessary for the de- velopment of the country cannot be se- cured.
 The railroads need encouragement of the kind that can be given by a safe, reasonable commercial organization. 1 need not point out to a business .organi- zation of Athens the material help that can be extended by such a body to the railroads There is room for a vast de- velopment in the south in which the rail- roads must be of material assistance. The service of 75 or more years ago does not answer for the present generation. We have higher ideals now than we had these many decades ago; it is but the natural result of progress.
 railroad is never completed. as new and rproved terminals, branch lines and other facilities are constantly needed, but after d railroad is built it becomes a part of the community through which 1t runs and which it is intended to serve and the present day officers would like the community to know that being tax payers and permanent neighbors the rail- roads should not only treat the commun- ities in a neighborly manner, but the communities should reciprocate such treat ment on the Golden Rule" principle.

built larger and more substantial. Better material has been selected and today there Is not only no trace of the catastrophe of one year ago, but a new town reaching out for still greater things is the admira- ble result.
 In the rebuilding the people got new spirit of progress and development and have exceeded what might possibly have been attained had not the storm leveled the town and necessitated the rebuilding.
 One of the greatest achievements of the community since the storm Is the organi- zation of an electric lighting plant, which Is one of the most complete and efficient in any town of the size in Alabama
 E. o. McCord, one of the greatest suf- ferers from the storm, was the promoter of this enterprise and Is now its president and general manager
 Among the handsome homes that have been rebuilt are those of T. B. McNaron, John Templeton, E. o. McCord, John c. Coleman, o. L. McNaron and Mrs. Mary Meigs. These are all on Main street.
 Dr. J. R. Thomas has erected hand some concrete residence on Main street.

ALBERTVILLE'S GROWTH
 DURING THE PAST YEAR
By WALTER HARPER.

Albertville. April 24-(Special. )-One year ago yesterday the beautiful little noun tain town of Albertville was almost totally destroyed by cyclone, one of the most destructive that ever visited this sec ton. Almost the entire central section of the town, including dozens of business houses and some of the finest residences were wrecked and the tlmbers blown piece from piece and distributed to the four winds
 number of lives were lost and many more persons were more or less seriously injured. The property loss was enormous.
 But the rebuilding of the town in less than one years time is something mar velous and reflects great credit on the courage and determination of these peo- pie. AS soon as the dead and injured were cared for the stout-hearted people began the work of clearing the wreckage and laying the foundation for new homes and new business houses. The new tow1, was laid out on broader lines, the citizens being determined to build better town than the one that had been destroyed. Not one inferior house has been erected. Every residence that has been built since the storm is larger and finer than the one it replaced.
 The business houses, too, have been

seems to have felt the necessity for better facilities to take its cotton product to the coast, for prior to 1926 your town boasted ot at least two cotton mills. Tradition has 1t that the first railroad from Athens was inspired by the delay in the delivery of steam boiler probably intended for use in one of these cotton mills. The wagon containing the boiler was stalled while en route from Augusta by the bad condition of the roads and it's delivery halted until the roads became dry-a mat ter of weeks.
 In an editorial of the Southern Ban ner,' published here in Athens, July 6, 1883, the prospect of a railroad is praised and welcomed on behalf of the planter, for whom, it is said, "a portion of his hard earnings will be saved in getting his product to market" The editorial then asserts that if books were opened one half of the stock would be taken up In Athens alone In few days.
 A Mighty Change.
 A mighty change has come to your then town, and to the whole state since the first railroad was talked of and a little later made a reality. To Savannah and the sea is not an unknown journey, and the great financial and commercial cen ters of the country are now within easy reach. The railroads have aided in de- yeloping your country, they have saved your planted and your merchant much of their earnings and have made possible tn } enlargement of their fields of activities this despite the protest against present day rates.
 l would have you remember Mir Toast master, that as the country grows. and its products are enlarged additional fa- cilities will be required. It would hardly be possible today to get the communities to s1hScribe a e bau in half of the amount of a loan to aid the railroad to still further develop the prop critics. In these days private capital must be used for the development of these great enterprises, so indispensable in your pro- grss. It Is only fair that for the in- vestment of this great capital there should be a reasonable return in profit To se- cure this and to protect and preserve the property charges for service must be ade- quate, but not unreasonable.
 The first railroad and it's successors no doubt made mistakes in charges for ser vice rendered. A crude system for the regulation of these charges may be blamed for such a condition. Present day methods overcome this and today there Is open to the merchants of your city not one railroad but five, any one of which may be used with the assurance that there is no discrimination in the mat ter of rates. The railroads welcome the changes that have made possible equal rates and equal privileges to all shippers and are working on the lines of fair treat ment to all, but it is not unreasonable for the railroads to hope. in return, for the same fair treatment from the communi- ties they serve.
 More Facilities Needed.
 The railroads in our southland need more facilities, more engines, yards, branch lines main tracks, double tracks automatic signals, steel cars-but all such additions and betterments require capital The capitalists of today whether located in the north. south, east or west are

McNaron, J. c. Wakefield and ". M. Ragsdale.
 The Methodist church and parsonage, storm, have been rebuilt. A large num- Der of residences which were only par tially damaged have been remodeled, in almost every instance being improved and enlarged.
 In the business section, which suffered severely, the transformation has been most mary elous. Most of the buildings de- stroyed were of wood. These have been replaced with stone, brick and concrete structures that would be an ornament to any strictly agricultural or school town in the state or the south as to that mat ter.
 Hood Bros. have erected a large brick feed and sale stable H. M. Johnson has built three handsome and oommodious brick structures that are occupied by Scarborough & Hanes and by local physi- clans and others for offices.
 McNaron Bros. have a large concrete warehouse and the Farmers union have an immense brick structure to take the place of those destroyed by the storm.
 Among the other creditable business structures that have been erected are the concrete store of J. M. Howard & Sons, the brick store of E. B. Oswalt, and the brick millinery store of Mrs M. E. Brown.

At a banquet in Athens, Ga., a few nights ago W. A. Garrett. executive of ficer to the receivers of the Seaboard Air Line delivered an address, which contains much interesting information and timely suggestion. The full text of the spech follows:
 MT. oastmaster-Gentlemen:
 Dr. Phillips of the University of Wis consin in his splendid wock. The History of Transportation in the Eastern Cotton Belt brings out the early importance of Athens and it is given a prominent place as a center from which improve ments in methods of transportation radi- ated. We are told that shortly after 1915 the federal government built a wagon road through the Cherokee country from Athens to the northwestern part of Geor- gia and into Tennessee, thus opening up a highway for the handling of traffic into new and growing territory. Prior to this the bringing of supplies into this section was a slow and expensive task.
 The distributing point appears to have been Augusta and the pole boats ascend ing from Savannah to Augusta required 14 days. Loaded wagons could make the trlp Tn about week provided the con- ditions of the roads did not wreck the vehicles. The stage coach trips con- sumed three or four days and we may well imagine the torture to the passen- gers. Supplies delivered at Augusta were some 100 miles from Athens, with a long Journey beyond Athens to reach the north western corner of Georgia and over the line into Tennessee. The roads, too, were in very bad condition and at times m- passable.
 Prohibitive Charges.
 The freight charges with such conditions were as we may picture, prohibitive and the use of the roads was limited to the stage coach lines carrying passengers and mail. As early as 1910 the cotton industry had assumed such proportions as to de- mand facilities to get the product to the coast, but the incidents leading up to the war of 1872 interfered with the develop ment of any plans for these. In 1926 lot tery scheme to build road from Athens to Augusta failed for the reason that lot teries had become all too numerous.
 The opening of the road built by the government from Athens to the north west had the effect of somewhat decreas- ing the charges for the handling of sup plies into that country. Athens itself

From the Delineator.
 What to do next! It is big prob lem, isn't it? And to the girl on the eve of graduation, 1t is a problem that assumes appalling proportions. Yet real ly if we look 1t straight in the face, 1t isn't such an awful question: after all. By we I mean girls of average lntelligence-not geniuses seeking ca reers, but girls who either by choice or necessity decide to earn their own living in some way.

 Marian gazed at him with wide-open brown eyes for a moment. then said ex- citedly: "Oh, mother, mother look at that queer doggy with legs at each corner of himi Was his legs long once, mother, and did they get wored down by him us- ing them so much?"

about the very best possible results for the community and the railroads.
 However, the foundations of the sys- tenn of steam roads in the south, in Geor- gia, were well laid, and Dr. Phillips has spoken nobly as he dedicates his book:
 'To the dominant class of the south, who in the piping ante-bellum time schooled multitudes, white and black. to the ac- ceptance of higher standards; who in the wartime proved staunch, and who in the troublous upheaval and readjustment which followed, wrought more sanely and more wisely than the world yet knows
