"Tbere IS no accounting for the con-
struction which some people will put
upon certain passages of Scripture re-
marked a clergyman. Il remember
the story Of one clergyman who went
to call on q woman whose husband
had recently died. He had expected
quite naturally, to find her heartbro'
ken with the burden Of her sorrow
and was greatly surprised when she
greeted him with very happy smile
and ushered him into the parlor.
"Well-er-sister,' be said at length
you have my warmest sympathy
"'Thank you, DOCTOR replied the
widow casually. I did feel very
bad, very bad indeed. But | came
across a verse Of Scripture which COM
forted me very much indeed.
"'And what was the verse, sister,
inquired the clergyman.
81 don't remember just where TO
find it. replied the widow, but 1t was
made up Of only four words-four
helpful words-"Why need | carer''"

A week ago they returned to their homes,

Mr. Rather was admitted to the bar

cashier of the bank organized here by
Hinton Carr, and it was his activity in

grade of public service. II the thirty
year franchise policy had been adopted
by this city ten years ago, neither the
Illirois Central nor the Atlanta, Birming
ham and Atlantic would have built into
Birmingham. But if there were real
dangers in the perpetual franchises, and
if there were abundant reasons to limit
franchises to thirty years ordinarily, yet,
1t is my opinion that it would be to the
advantage of Birmingham to grant the
Tidewater Railroad company the full
limit allowed by our constitution in order
that it might cope with other public
service corporations. both street railway
and railroads, which own and operate
under perpetual franchises 1t is no.
reasonable to expect bankers mr. any other
investors to put their money into the
Tidewater enterprise on a thirty-year
franchise basis; and TO limit this company
to thirty years is to deny to it franchise
and to deprive the pubic of competition
and the advantages which it affords.
II believe, therefore, that il is to the
interest of every citizen Individually, as
well as the city, that this franchise be
granted" go
