Local Optionists to Meet
Attitude of Prohibitionists

Prohibtionists are surveying the field with interest. The two regulation meas tres, each carrying with it cohort of followers. will only serve to strengthen their position, whereas one bill, having the backing of the whole rank of local cptionists. would doubtless cause them more or less alarm. The prohibitionists, however, in any event, are determined to fight every local option measure. and ;hey are not yet willing to concede vic tory to the other side. They will use their strength in both the house and sen ate, and if they cannot defeat the bill as a whole, they will use their efforts to make the regulation features as strict as they can be made.

1 he wanted to do, and what 1t was intend ed that he should do, he proceeded to do 1 everything else and has made a most wonderful success of the undertaking.
 Let us see what he is doing today and then We will say something about what he has done In the past There is no tell ing what he may do in the future.
 He is cashier of the First Bank of Bell City, which institution he helped to Or eanize. He is president of the First Bank of Lincoln and vice president of the Bank of Odenville. He was in the organization of all these institutions and one of the most active spirits. He iA vice president of the Alabama State Bar association and for six years has been secretary-treasurer of the Alabama Bankers association. He is president of the Alabama Press associa- ton and has been chairman of the steer ing committee of the Alabama Under writers association.
 At home he Is one of the most active builders of Pell City, closely identified with every public interest in the town and community He is editor of the Pell City Progress, a lawyer, banker and insurance man He also deals in real estate
 His hobby Is education. and has always been most active in building up and i'm proving the school conditions of his home town and community.
 When the governments of the United States and Spain fell out over a misun- derstanding between the latter and some of her children, MT. Hilton joined in and did valiant service. He served two years in the navy
 He has the distinction of having led the first landing of Americans on the island of Cuba. He landed with his party at Guam tanimo several days before General Shaf- ter landed with his army In recognition of his work MT. Triton re- ceived special service medal from the United States Congress.
 Such service is characteristic of the man under treatment in this sketch. He wants to be in the forefront of every un- dertaking. He never stands back and di- rects the other fellow in any duty. He moves forward and does it himself. This probably accounts for his trying ! to fill many jobs in civil life or per haps it is because he is willing and ac- ! cepts duties that other men like to shirk He was never known to turn down an op- portunity to do something | At the close of the Spanish-American | war MT. Tiltcn came to Pe City and got l busy. He has been one of the prime movers in the new development of St. 1 Clair county. His master hand is felt all over Alabama among bankers, lawyers, newspaper men and among politicians. While Mr. Triton has never held a poiti- cal position, he takes an active interest | in politics and keeps thoroughly familiar 1 with the movement of government mat | ters in the state and nation. He claims | to be an independent or insurgent demo- crat and no man in the state is better ] informed on public matters. MT. Triton graduated in physics and | chemistry at the University of Virginia and in law at the University of Mfchi- | gan.
 1 He married Miss Gertrude Lee Scoville of Virginia in 1899. They have one son, l McLane Triton, the third.
 1 MT. Triton may easily be classed as one of the handsomest men in Alabama.

BILL. IN THE L|MEL|GHT Two Measures Are Under
 Consideration PLAN FOR HARMONY Local Optionists Trying to Get To- gether on Some Measure so as
 to Present a United
 Front
PLAN FOR HARMONY

Montgomery, February 21.-(Speeal)- There is no end of talk in legislative circles as to the features that will be contained in the regulation bill. This bill will be introduced either tomorrow or next day, or as soon as a measure can be agreed upon by local optionists as a whole
 At present there are two regulation bills that are engaging the attention of local optionists, one of which is the Smith bill and the other the Parks bill. It is safe to say that only one regu- lation bill will be introduced, and 1t Is equally safe to say that neither the Smith nor the Parks bill will be present. ed to the house in it's present form Local optionists are agreed that there must be unanimity; that the issue must be settled at the earliest date possible, and that, therefore, in order to preserve their strength intact one bill must be pre- sented that will meet with the favor of each and every local optionist in the legislature
 Two Regulation Bills
 Both Judge Parks. bill and MT. Smiths bill have a considerable following among local optionists in the legislature. Each bill contains features that are satisfac- tory to all, but neither bill in it's pres ent form would measure up to the pop ular ideal. Local optionists as a whole. are un- willing that both measures should be presented. It has been pointed out that one bill that has the approval of all parties concerned will have comparative ly easy sailing through both houses of the legislature whereas two bills, each with its following. will only serve to delay the issue.
 The opinion prevails, therefore, that the two bills will be made into one, and that when the measure is finally pre- sented it will be known as the Parks Smith bill. Local optionsts a whole are anxious that the two bills should be made joint measure-a bill that com pines the good features embodied in each of the present bills.
 Local Optionists to Meet
 This joint bill will be introduced either tomorrow or Thursday.
 In the meantime local optionists are planning to have several meetings for the purpose of fully discussing the two bills. meeting will probably be held at once. at which time it is likely that measures At any rate, it is safe to say that measure will embody features of both the Parks and Smith bills.

Avoid overcrowding your chicken
coops. When too many fowls roost
together they crowd. and the animal
heat will cause them to sweat. This
in itself has been the cause Of more
summer sickness than anything else

Many people hesitate to breed pure

Glorious Old Green Pyramids.
Late August is the time to watch

From any wound remove all the de-
cayed wood, with a chisel and adj. to
the sound. hard wood, and smooth off
the edges Of the cavity to allow the
free growth of the inner bark.
After the cavity has been thoroughly
cleaned out disinfect it with corrosive
sublimate. creosote or even paint.
Creosote is better. as it penetrates far
Their into the wood. The cavity should
now be filled with concrete. one part
portland cement to two parts sand.
Make it thin. so that it can be poured
In at the top Of the opening When
the cavity is large it is necessary TO
reinforce the concrete by placing iron
bars across the inside. 1t Is also best
to drive large nails part way in around
the inside. and this enables the con-
crete to adhere better to the trunk.
AS the filing shrinks considerably In
large cavities the walls should be first
coated with a thick layer of tar. This
expands and fills the shrinkage crack,
making the cavity air tight. There is
now no chance for any disease to enter
and get in It's work.
After the filling has set little the
surface should be smoothed off even
with the inner bark. In q few years
the cambrium will completely. cover
the filling. making a good looking tree.
