YOUR SORE TOE.

Do not nurse your grievance.
If some one has sighted or wound
ed you do not nourish your grievance

Do not show your sore toe.
Half the sights you nurture are
fancied Sights. Half the injuries for
which you put yourself into sort of
self martyrdom were never intended
for you.
You fed them until they were ripe.
Some persons put themselves IN the
attitude of looking for evidences of
neglect or injury. They find what
they are looking for. And then they
make themselves and their friends
miserable by chewing the cud OF their
resentment.
How shall you treat your grievance
Forget 1t.
The more you think Of thing OF
that sort the bigger it gets. The more
you drag it through your mind the
deeper you cut the channel until by
and by it becomes a well worn rut in
which your thought must travel
whether or no.
Get out Of the rut.
Force yourself to think Of some
thing else. Make new channels fol
your thought. Change the subject
Get so busy trying to make others
happy and thus making yourself hap
py that you have no time to bother
with grievances.
That is one way.
Another way. which has high sane
ton. is to heap Goals of fire on the
head Of the one who has injured you.
Speak some pleasant word or de-
some gracious thing to the one who
has tried to hurt you. and IL he is real
" guilty it will make him sorry, and
thus you will have overcome evil with
good.

Recent Legal
Decisions

ATTORNEYS AT Law AS GRAND
JURORS. The statutes of Kentucky
provide that no civil officer. with GER
tain exceptions not necessary here to
be enumerated. shall serve as grand
juror. Section 500 of the revised stat
utes of the United States makes the
competency of jurors in courts of the
United States dependent on their COM
potency in the highest court of law CT
the particular state in which the pro-
ceeding is held. One Shaw was in
dicted and tried In the district court
of the United States for the western
district of Kentucky for an offense
against the postal laws. Upon appeal
to the circuit court of appeals for the
Sixth circuit. one of his alleged grounds
for reversal related to the competency
of one of the grand Jurors who was
a practicing lawyer. Shaw claimed
that he was incompetent on the ground
that as an attorney he was civil Of
fcer as that term is used in the Ken
lucky statutes above referred to. This
contention was overruled by the court
of appeals. which held that, while at
torneys may be in a sense quashi pub

mon understanding of mankind, and
should not be so considered in passing

FOUND THE PARK
 IN VERY BAD SHAPE
Workmen Having Hard Time Getting North Birmingham Playground
 in Good Condition


 Although eight workmen have been in North Birmingham park for four straight days toiling unceasinlly. the weeds and choatic condition of that park remains almost unchanged. Su- perintendent Williamson said yester- day to President Exum that never be- fore in. his long experience had such a condition confronted the keeper of the parks. The weeds had been suf- fered to grow higher than the fences completely hiding the shrubbery and otherwise rendering the park unattrac- tive.
 It was reported yesterday that the condition of that park would be inn proved very shortly as the workmen will be detained there indefinitely In connection with the high cost involved on the city in maintaining the park at North Birmingham, it is expected that the question of ownership of that prop erty will be expedited. As the situation is at this time the city Is unwilling to incur any large expense in main taining the property and the North Birmingham Land company occupies the same posi- tion.
 The citizens about the park and those that use it most frequently are loud in their condemnation of the city officials in having it trimmed up at this time In the face of some doubt as to the own ership.

ROSSER SUBMITS
 BILL FOR S1290
North Birmingham Lady Asks S3O00 Damages for
 Injuries to Her Son

statement for $1290 was rendered the commissioners yesterday by Special Ac- countant Rosser, for his work of exam ming the books of the Southern Bell Tel ephone company in Atlanta. The state- ment included services amounting to sl00 and expenses from Mobile to Birmingham and then to Atlanta The statement was referred to Commissioner Lane and was held up until next Tuesday.
 The commissioners yesterday held a meeting lasting two hours which resulted in great quantity of small questions to be passed upon which had accumulated dur inf the past few days. In the afternoon a few small assessments were made final when the commissioners adjourned until Friday morning.
 An application from West End made by Dr. G. c. Gewin that the city trade two lots for triangle near Poplar street sult- able for a park was denied. The com missioners assumed the position that the city property was the most desirable ol the two parcels. The officials did not End, it being said that it was the in tention of the city to establish one there However, the proposition made yester- day was held to be wholly objectionable.
 The commissioners faced a request for 5000 damages from A lady in reduced cir cumstances whose son, while playing near the citys North Birmingham plant, was shocked by live wire. In a letter it was pointed out that the boy was up in a tree ubap ba In a xyi poorly insulated and that he would have been electrocuted had not neighbors heard his screams and rescued the young man. The letter went on to say that the lad was permanently injured, that he would never have the total use of his hand. and that his mother would thereby lose his services in her behalf.
 The petition requested that the city pay 5000 for the dana ges and the mental pain and anguish that the mother suffered. Commissioner Lane assumed charge of the proposition yesterday and will look carefully into 1t. The indications are that the city will pay the widowed lady tidy sum for the damages to her son provided all the facts she recounted are accurate.
 The commissioners received a request of the most urgent kind to visit the news boys camp next Thursday at picnic that is to be given there The managers in- formed the commissioners that an auto- mobile would be provided them to attend The boys are planning to have fine time at the picnic and they are anxious that the commissioners attend. If possible the city officials will do so.

FINDS UNDERWOOD
 SENTIMENT STRONG
Massey Says He Is As High ly Regarded In East
 As At Home

That Congressman Oscar W. Under wood stands as high in the estimation of eastern democrats, and that they look with as much favor on his nomination to lead the national, democratic ticket as dc the people of this section, is the news brought by Richard W. Massey president of the Chamber of Commerce, who has returned from trip to Washington and other points east.
 Mr. Massey has been on an extended trip north and east and visited many of the leading cities. He states that the Un- derwood boom has extended throughout the New England states and that his name is prominently mentioned as a strong presidential nominee.
 While In Washington MT. Massey con ferred with Congressman Underwood iH regard to the proposed reception for the distinguished Alabamian on his return to his state.
 As it is somewhat uncertain when Con gress will adjourn, and because of the fact that MT. Underwood will take a much of the proposed reception could not be definitely arranged at this time. MT. Massey, however, will bring the matter before the next meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, and the arrangements fer the reception will probably be made.
 'The feeling toward MT. Underwood in the places I have viisted." said MT. Mas sey," shows the highest confidence in his statesmanship and proved ability. He is xod n fo -ra man, in whose hands the weighty affairs of the nation might safely be placed.
 His splendid record in Congress and the events of the past few months have made him national figure. and the senti- ment in favor of his nomination for the presidency is growing every day.
 T conversed with numbers of business men, all of whom spoke in the highest praise of MT Underwood even those O. different political faith. The northern press is also very complimentary in its references to our distinguished citizen. and as a result the Underwood sentiment is growing stronger each day
 T believe the people of Birmingham and Alabama fully appreciate the splen- did service rendered by MT. Underwood and that they will not fail to show it on his return.
 Congress will probably adjourn about September 1 and in the event the recep- ton is given it will occur about the mii- dle of September
 MT. Massay was accompanied on the trip by Mrs. Massay They enjoyed the visit immensely.

WAR ON WORMS

War was yesterday declared against tree bugs and worms In Birmingham m 8 parks. The city commissioners, the Grasselli Chemical company, the author ities at Auburn, the. park commission and J. IT Williamson, park superin- tendent, conspired against the bug yes- terday, and the enemy will soon be routed.
 One hundred gallons of worm de- stroyer were purchased yesterday upon the recommendation of experts which will be used in liberally spraying the trees in Capitol park which are most affected by the destroyer first un- earthed by Commissioner Lane.
 The ravages of the insect seems to be confined principally to the trees in Capitol park, no other reports having been received.
 With the chemical sprayers it is be- leved the destruction begun by the worms and bugs will be short lived.
