BIRMINGHAM IN POSSE-No 4-By George Eaves, D. D.

A mother will force her daughter to labor under conditions that create tuberculosis, and there is no appeal. But if she beat the girl with a bludgeon, and do but one hundredth part the present damage, she might even be lynched. So long as there Is money interest there Is little moral responsibility and there Is practically no conscience of law.
 Now these things have moulded the elder industrial cities of this land, and have tied in them inconceivable suffer- ings and sickness and degradation. It is Birmingham's privilege to build itself o1 the southern conscience of chivalry rather than on the northern conscience of gain. It is to be proved to the woriu that the southern conscience Is more chivalrous, It's boasted democracy more intensely democratic than the early indus trial communities of the land.
 We have no slums. Shall we allow slums to be created as the population grows? Forces are here that create slums. tho greed of landlords, the subnersence of the poor, the speculations of private individuals in public needs. Is there a. statesman in Birmingham to withstand those forces? Without such a statesman indomitable, intelligent, Birmingham will repeat the shame of New York, Pittsburg,

Shall we call it an accident that once more the whole world now unites to train and equip the young physician? Coop erative science conspires to make him heir of all ideas, citizen of the world, master of every art. Forces incalculable are compelling him to be more than the bedside ministrant to rescue individuals from pain or to delay the approach Of death He is the ordained priest of new order, white-robed at the holy altars of Hygiea.
 We talk of the republic of letters. But in truth democracy is lifting it's control over a commune already wide as human life itself, the common welfare. It turns out to be part of our business whether a tribe of Indians around the fever smitten swamps of the Amazon shall be made to gather rubber. And chemists are all the buster with determination to grow rubber in their laboratories, and so cut out Peru van wrongs and Congo temptations. But it gives in the meantime new sense of human unity when we discover that It makes all the difference to wonder unseen Indians whether you or ride up street in a machine with peneumatic tires. It Is terrible to find once again that civilization rests at last on blood and tears and wrong But that we resent the wrong and shield lands across the swamps to

throttle the brute money power proves the new commonwealth.
 Because Birmingham Is Itself the prod uct of the new age, the best in the new age may well claim Birmingham as its proper field. As the city stands today 1t is too much a. real estate venture, which must be made to pay big dividends to adventurers Tn order to save it's soul alive Birmingham must devoutly seek the larger dividends of health. beauty, educa- tional progressiveness, and a serene cul- ture unafraid of the fluctuations of iron and cotton When 1t comes to justifying our taxation system, for instance, it may well be that we should consider how to increase Birmingham's population and Birminghams well-being by refusing to tax the improvements, or by offering nut nicipal aid in the making of improve ments Whether we should have three commissioners or five in charge of the city affairs is a sheer question of economy and efficiency. As the last resort every ques- ton, now decided by the most noisy in- terest affected, must come to be decided by the process of voluntary sacrifice of private interests for the community well fare. In the long run the only problem Is a better distribution of the common well fare. Very unimportant Is the question
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-09-01

whether a certain investment will pay 90 or 40 per cent. Birmingham's patriots will ask What will it do to the man who runs it or to the men and women whom it will run2 Our ambition must be not to make money with half the watchfulness wherewith we will make the boys and girls of today into men and women of a noble type tomorrow.
 I am ashamed to think that we need more money to care for our prisoners than we spend on our sick. Tho danger ous and degenerate classes are actually more to be feared than our natural ene- mics, the typhoid fly, the tuberculc baccil- Jus, the germs of fever and thousand ills. Alabama is today spending more money on jails than on school houses or churches, or was until recently. Add all that Birmingham does for the unfortu- nate, the sick, the morally lame, the fi- nancially blind and halt. the sinners and the babes, the children of all ages in school, what relation does it bear to the increase in real estate values for a single year? Our police shoot men down re- morselessy for resisting their shoddy authority, but there is no shooting, nor even a rebuke to the owner of property where the souls of men and women are offered as evening sacrifices to the devil.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-09-01

TNHE natural beauty of Alabama,
 borne in the very music of It's
 4 name, is the hostage of Birming- ham. But Birmingham is new thing wedged into this lovely environment, spouting soot and spilling noise Of screeching engines, and of changing met als, and of furious exploding blasts where generous nature had spread the valleys with tenderness and the hills with peace.
 Having invaded the habitations of ferns, dryads, nymphs and all the undisturbed zoology of dreams, the question is whether we can greatly improve on these habita- tions as we bring in the new spirit or the new age. Until now the life problem was chiefly an individual affair. Every buniblebee had to find it's own hole, every pair of birds select their own nest ing place and erect their palace of love at their own risk. If mice came to the bumblebee's hole and ate the young fam ily it was only natural risk. If a snake climbed a tree and swallowed the bald babies of the mocking bird, that also was occasionally to be expected. And if negro cabin or white mans home was invaded by flood or fever, there was vast sense of the inevitable to relieve the bangs of suffering, each man knowing that he must bear his own burden

On his return to Richmond Dr. Guild was assigned to duty at the front, where his relations with Gen. Joseph E. Johnston became the most intimate, and the families of both constituted a charming circle of army society. Dr. Guild was among many others who in- sisted that General Johnston was among the greatest strategists of eith- CT army.
 When General Johnston was wounded at Seven Pines and General Lee took command, one of the first inquiries of General Lee was: Where is Dr. Guild ' Tell him to report to me at once" It was on the battle field of Seven Pines that Dr. Guild was made medical di- rector and chief surgeon of the army of Northern Virginia, which position he held to the close of the war. This position placed him on General Lees staff, and from that time till the close of the long and bloody tragedy, pr. Guild sustained the closest personal

pointed an assistant surgeon in the reg ular army at the age of 24, and assigned to duty in 1s4s at Key West, Florida.
 In this semi-tropical region he was as enthusiastic in his scientific research as he had ever been. From Florida he was transferred to Governors Is- land, off Boston. where he was able to bring into acquisition the results of his research in southern Florida. His valuable service was shown in the prevention of yellow fever from in- fected ships from the tropics. While stationed at Governors Island, Dr. Guild wrote treatise on yellow fever, which was published by the govern ment. He was the first to insist stout ly that yellow fever Is infectious though not contagious, theory then new, but now accepted.
 Nothing relative to the health of the army escaped his trained eye. About the time about which we are now writ ing, a meat biscuit which was issued to the army became quite popular, but

There was little cooperative defense or community action.
 Two conditions belong to the new age: The one that nature can be indefinitely improved, and so that what once passed as inevitable suffering is by no means inevitable; the other, that the instrument for conquering nature is cooperative manhood. Indvidualism and fatalism have gone by the board" The new indi- vidualsm is the law that each boy or girl must learn how most effectively to cooperate. Education Is more and more becoming a training in exact facts, the teaching how to live together, how to con- tribute something to the whole victory over things. It is no longer question whether this boy can saw wood, lay brick, plant field, build a wagon or make pair of shoes. What counts Is that he should learn to harness Niagara for all Ontario, for all New York state, to draw it's power from as they choose. The ser want must serve the community, not the family The physician must mount guard against the bubonic plague and set men along the Sierras shooting squirrels, lest the microbe pass to Arizona, New Mexico and the Mississippi valley. He must not be content to cure this or that man, but he must hasten to avert the whole peril from the whole community.

and men on a submarine vessel of the Japanese navy?
 Now a writer in one of the scientific journals gives the details.
 The submarine. commanded by heuten- ant Faotumu, failed to rise, as was shown by the records when the vessel after wards was raised. on account of some failure in the apparatus.
 The discovery was made about 10 o'clock fin the forenoon.
 Down under fathoms of sea water, face to face with approaching death. the lieutenant calmly undertook to write the story of the last hours. He wrote the full account up to 12;3o, and his last words were
 "Respiratlon Is becoming extraordinari- ly difficult. I am breathing gasoline"
 He told about the efforts to raise the vessel, of the despair that settled down upon the officers and men, of how the lights went out, how they sat in gloom and how he was writing his final words in the darkness-detais of interest to the world from which they were eternaly shut out.
 But the finest words of all, words which

age crop is to be picked. The fruiting condition of the crop is such that the earliest cotton is but just now opening while the average crop is reported to be about three weeks later than in 1911. If the cotton made during August and to bo set before September 10, is to mature, the foliage must be kept on the plants .ntil we'll into October this year.
 Our first reliable report of cotton worm in Alabama this year was received from Mobile on June 6. Moths were there ta~ ken at lights. Other scattered reports of worms in small numbers were re- celved during July at dates earlier than worms were reported in 1911. These early reports are due entirely to the fact that because of the 1911 outbreak we have been watching much more closely for the occurrence of the worms this year. Less public notice has been given to the occurrence of the worms this year be- cause of last years experience and in numerous cases we know that planters

arsenate of lead. and figuring on mak- ing two applications at heavy dosage 1t can be shown that 1t Is less eXpen- sive to poison than to allow the worms to prevent the opening of even one boil to the stalk. The saving of one boil to the stalk will pay for both material and labor for about three average ap- plications of arsenate of lead and there will be very few fields in Alabama this year where even more than this cannot be saved by poisoning up to the first of October. Second, there is general impression that the cotton worms are appearing so late this year that there will not be need to poison. The error in this idea Is indicated above in what has been said regarding the stage of the crop. The fact is that the cotton worms are never too late to do damage until after the crop has been picked out ot the field and in most fields this will not be until we'll into October this year
 With last years experience so clear ly in mind, 1t hardly seems possible
