SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT and EDUCATION

SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT and EDUCATION.
The star of this department is in the
ascendency. The bonds have been
voted, the plans accepted and the con-
tract let for a handsome new school
structure that not only meets the re-
quirements and wants of the present
but looks to the future for time to
come. This speaks well for the inter-
est of the people who realize in the
child the making of future citizenship
that shall count for our veal or woe.
Interest along these lines should new
er abate but should grow in accordance
with the demands of the times for ed
ucated men and women in every bust
ness and in every walk of life.
In return for the best educational
facilities offered it should be looked to
that the compulsory school law is en-
forced.

What Gov. Wilson Stands For

It scarcely seems possible that any thoughtful democrat in Alabama can turn against Woodrow Wilson in this campaign-against the only nominee born, reared and married in the south.
 He is 56 years old and every year of his active life has been one of con stant endeavor. He is a lawyer and he has been professor of history, political economy, jurisprudence and politics. He served eight years as the head of Princeton university. His published works on historical subjects have at tracted wide attention. Is not man thus equipped fitted for high public service?
 And then came his election as gov ernor of New Jersey and his resigna- ton from Princeton. His life ever since has been one continuous battle against bosses and entrenched inter ests. He fought the political machine of James Smith, Jr., until both were driven out of the politics of New Jer- sey. He snubbed the Tammany boss and procured the nomination in New York of William Sulzer, and at all times he has insisted that no cam paign contributions should be re- ceived directly or indirectly from the trusts. A primary law, corrupt practices act, city commission law, and a public utilities bill were forced through legislature controlled by the opposition in New Jersey, so great was his influence in the office of gov ernor. He has worked at all times and in all places for the qualification and uplift of public life in this coun- try.
 He is, too, gentleman. He never forgets the dignity of any office to which he aspires. How any southern democrat can turn from such man to either Taft or Roosevelt it is not easy to understand, much less to account for in all reason and all sense, com mon or political.

Get-Together Meetings

The pantry exhibit at the Jefferson theatre on Friday night was ma terial demonstration of Birmingham's varied industrial work. Everything needed in the kitchen is either made or prepared here. This is the true line of progress, and when everything needed in a home is made in Bir- mingham" our industrial career will be well organized.
 The reports made at the meeting in question were interesting, and the programme mapped out for the com ing year calls for civic activity and civic loyalty. The get-together spirit is to be developed until spirit of local pride is aroused here equal even to that of Atlanta, with a far better basis of natural resources to rest upon
 Cooperation on the part of home manufacturers, home merchants and home customers is to be promoted; the city's park and boulevard system is to be investigated by landscape expert; the public school system IS to be promoted, and the entire city placed in position to boom itself and the state in the centennial exposition of 1919.
 This is programme enough for the present. The meeting itself on Fri day night was evidence that a spirit of local pride can be developed in this city that will make the Atlanta spirit look like 30 cents, and President Sib- ley should hold more get-together meetings in the near future.
 The town is going on and up. Chair man Yancey reported the location of new pipe company using local capi- tai only; Secretary Radcliffe pointed to the zoo in Avondale park and the medical college of the Alabama uni versity, and Mr. Harding explained the manner of raising great fund for the centennial exposition of 1919. We need many more meetings similar to that of last Friday night.

A .rRAMpo GOES DOWN

From the Louisville Courier Journal
 Unless there is a disposition upon the part of the owners to go joy-riding among icebergs with no glasses in the crow 8 nest and with many glasses clinking in the dining saloon, passengers upon the huge liners are about as safe upon the ocean as they are at home, but sailors who go down to the sea in ships such as the 3s7-ton Nicaragua which foun- dered off Padre Island, near Corpus Christi, take their lives in their hands when they gail.
 A little tramp like the Nicaragua might be hoisted aboard a steamer of first magnitude and shipped as freight. or hung upon davits over the side of such a vessel as the late Titanic without causing a list. Some of the tramps. espe- cially Norwegians, are so small that per- sons who view them from the deck of a liner wonder how they can carry enough freight to pay their coal bills and the wages of the crew. Many of them are old and ramshaclSle. And some of them, according to the scandalmongers of the high seas, are deliberately run by their owners with the hope of collecting ma rine insurance. If they go down half way around the worfd from the home office of the underwriters who carry the risk 1t is easy to assign a cause for the wreck that will not reveal the rottenness of the condition of the tub" and it pays better to sell the corpse of tramp to an insurance company than to scrap the vessel. since junk is not commo~ty salable at high prices.

A writer in the Worlds Work for No vember, describing the German air-ser- vice, says that Zeppelin airship leaves the earth with none of the balloons soar-
 ing motion. It Is just like a Pullman train, started without perceptible jar and kept in motion upon a perfect road bed. perfect track, and perfect wheels. At luncheon time individual tables are placed in position. and luncheon is served much as 1t Is in the ordinary buffet dining car in America. There is soup, an entree, a roast-all piping hot-vegetables, salad, cheese, and coffee. More of dinner than luncheon and all served as though the chef and walters had the conveniences of a great hotel at their command. The principles of the fireless cooker have been brousht into service in preparing the food, the exhaust from the engines being made to supply heat.
 The comforts are all those of a very modern hotel The cabin is kept at an unvarying comfortable temperature by means of pipes that carry the exhaust heat from the engines. There is more room for action than in an ordinary chair car. Tn the lavatories are hot and cold water. There Is libr1ry with the daily napers and the best of books. There Is e lounge for those who are willing to sleep away the hours of flight.

VILLAGE LIFE IN EGYPT

From with a Camera in Egypt in the
 November Wide World Magazine.
 Egyptian village life is quaint and inter- esting. The houses are crude, one storeyed structures of sun-baked mud. with possibly couple of tiny holes cut in the wall for venti- lation. Each home consists Of single room, absolutely devoid of furniture, one or two drinking jars and cooking utensils being usually the only articles to be seen. The roofs of these novels are matched with corn stalks, and for some unaceountable req son all the household rubbish is dumped on the roof For this purpose ladder may frequently be seen reclining against the side of the house. From a distance a village is apt to look like an immense rubbish heap. These primitive creations are inhabited solely by the fellaheen as Egyptian peasants are called. From oArly morn till sundown the men are out work ing in the fields, while the women folk spend most of the day squatting outside in the sun at the threshold of their homes ito which, by the way, the pigs and chickens have free access. At night the whole family sleeps on the hard earth floor of the wretched dwelling, except during the summer, when I was told that they adjourned to the >roofs, sleeping peacefully amid the accumulation of rot- ting rubbish which is tbrown there from time to time. A sanitary inspector would speedily die of overworlk or a broken heart in one of these villages.
 In some of the Arab villages the ar- engagements for sleeping are even more unconventional than those mentioned above Huge cup-lilSe structures, made of mud, are built out in the open, away from the houses, and into these the babies are frequently placed during the day. and often the entire family sleep in them at night. The idea is to escape the nu- merous snakes and scorpions which abound during the great heat of the sum mer.

The Chattanooga News

The Fall Trade and Industrial Edi- tion" of the Chattanooga News, issued last week, is splendid example of newspaper enterprise.
 Chattanooga is an important manu- featuring center. It is going forward rapidly and there is every reason to predict that by 1920 the volume of it's business will be almost if not quite doubled as compared with present sta tistics. The Chattanooga News pre- sents the business situation of it's city in a most attractive manner and the edition should have very wide circu- lation.

Charities and Appropriations.

The Chamber of Commerce has con- mlttee on charity and humane institu- tions and the idea in appointing such a committee, as I understand it, Is to fa- mliarize itself with the many organized charities hero and report for the benefit of the public,' said a prominent business man. We have many excellent institu- tions here and those to which I have had the pleasure of aiding by many contrlbu- tions are, I believe. in the highest de- gree worthy but with the rapid growth of Brmingham's charity organizations in- crease and 1t would be well worth while for the committee to look over the field and let the public know the extent and the character of charity work. The city commissioners and the county board of revenue make appropriations to many, if not all, of the institutions They would no doubt appreciate the services of the Chamber of Commerce committee. This is the committee as appointed Fred NJ. Jackson, E. N. Cullom, T. H. Motion, w. M. Cosby. Otto Marx, James J. Smith and R. S. Munger

AN IDYLL

James Thomson, The City of Dreadful Night.'h Was it hundreds of years ago, my love. Was it thousands of miles away, That two poor creatures we know, my love, Were toiling day by day;
 Were toiling weary, weary,
 With many myriads more, Tn a city dark and dreary.
 On sullen rivers shore? Was it truly a fact or dream. my love, think my brain still reels. And my ears still throbbing seem, my love. With the rush and the clang of wheels: Of a vast machinery roaring
 Forever in skyless gloom; Where the poor slaves, peace im-
 ploring,
 Found peace alone in tomb. Was it hundreds of years ago. my love Was it thousands of miles away? Or was it a dream to show, my love. The rapture of today?
 This day of holy splendor.
 This Sabbath of rich rest. Wherein to God we render
 All praise by being blest.

Every Democrat Should vote.

'I think every democrat here in Ala bama should vote for the national ticket" said Percy Clark, mot that it is needed to win, but to register his abiding faith in his party.
 And another good reason is that this is the home state of the great democratic leader of the House who was candi- date for the nomination. When the vote is summed up in the aggregate much will be made. particularly by the bull moose party, of the popular vote; that Is to say, the sum of all of the individual votes cast for a candidate as distinguished from the electoral college. It is possible for a candidate to be elected but also to have fallen behind in the popular vote.
 T can't make out the political mental phase of the individual who votes for Wilson for President and votes against democratic nominee and for bull moose candidate for Congress, such as are announced in a few instances in John l.. Burnetts district. It Is a political hy- bridization. that like the mule never came out of the ark, perhaps as Proctor Knott suggested in his Duluth speech without the pride of ancestry or the hope of pos terty But you never can tell what these political kaleidoscope times may pro- ducen

The New Ore Discoveries

The recent diamond drill investlga- tions of large tracts of land in Shades valley are beginning to attract wide attention. The last issue of the Balti- more Manufacturers Record, in an editorial entitled "New Ore Discover ies at Birmingham" calls attention to the fact that it ''has repeatedly, Tn the last few years, stated that dia- mond drill borings in the Birming- ham district would demonstrate very large increase in the proven supply or iron ore. Recent tests have proven the correctness of this position"
 The Record then goes on to tell of the core taken from one of the tracts two or three weeks ago which showed an average high analysis. It was stated at the time in The Age-Herald that the ore would analyze 36 to 37 per cent metallic, but it has since been learned that it will run even higher. All the good red ore in Shades valley is low in silica and is self fluxing
 The Manufacturers Record repro tluces from The ge-Herald a state ment made by we'll known local geol- ogist setting forth government statis- tics bearing on the raw material sup ply. In that statement the geologist said, "As there is enough coal to smelt the whole of this ore there should ui- tirsately exist in this district enough furnaces to smelt one-fourth of the iron ore of the country. The market for iron has been the one factor cur- tailing development up to the present, but with the rapid increase of the population of the south and the de- velopment of the processes of making steel we will have an outlet for fin lshed products which now come from the north. Birmingham now makes 2 per cent of the iron of the country, and when it has the market it will make 25 per cent. We should ulti- mately have in this district industries consuming one-fourth of the total iron manufactured in the United States" As great as has been the Birming- fh ham districts progress in the past it will look small compared with the developments that will take place Within the present decade. The recent proof of the value and the vast extent Df the ore in Shades valley is of far teaching importance. This ore will re- Quire deep mining and deep mining is , expensive. But the ore is of such in- trinsic worth that mining companies ran develop the property and operate with profitable commercial economy. It is certain that many additional blast furnaces will be built in the Bir- miugham district.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
Prosperity Throughout the south.

"On my way back to Birmingham l stopped at Maysville, Ky, the place Of my birth. had not been there for three years and was pleased to note many im- provements Maysville has a population ot over 5000 and it is one of the richest and thriftiest cities of it's size in the coun- try. It has an immense tobacco trade and the largest leaf tobacco warehouse in the world. That warehouse was built re- gently. It covers an entire city block

where a great artificial gulf has been

where a great artificial gulf has been excavated below the street. The Frisco, it is plain, refuses to assist in building a concrete viaduct over that gulf, asserting that propped up frame bridge is good enough for Norwood.
 The policy of the Frisco company in the Norwood case promises to be the policy of that company at other points where viaducts are needed. What the Frisco does today some oth- Ter railroad may do tomorrow, and the viaduct problem bids fair to become one obstacle after another, and no viaducts will be built unless the com mission cultivates it's backbone.

NED BRACE TALKS ABOUT SEVERAL
 FEATHERS OF INTEREST TO HOME PEOPLE

tins credit that he objected strenuously but was forced to do so.
 Now. however. the Avondale park of some 10 acres is available, with three street car lines touching 1t, and there is every reason to believe that the city com missioners will undertake to maintain the proposed zoo. There is already a keeper employed for the park who can attend to the animals and it will cost less to feed them than 1t does the few mules that are now supposed to haul the street sprink- lers about Birmingham.
 So why not let us have the zoo-a form of attraction which every well regulated and organized city in this country now possesses. It would be both an eduea~ tion and pleasure to the old folks as well as the young ones.
 There has been no national political campaign in this country for 30 years or more which has had so little tendency to upset business as the pending one. There Is less enthusiastic interest and less of the red fire about 1t than in any campaign I can remember
 In the south we have taken it for granted that Woodrow Wilson will be elected, on account of the split in the republican party As to the regular re- publcans supporting Taft no showing seems to have been made. The leaders are merely whistling to keep up their courage On the other hand 1t Is not to de denied that Roosevelt has made inroads among the voters of the country during the past two weeks and that he Is a se- rious problem for the democrats to reckon with.
 The best opinion is that Wilson will win, but undoubtedly a nervous feeling Is manifested by those who are most directly interested in democratic success. How ever the betting in New York and Chi cago among the gambling fraternity and stock exchange members continues at to fin favor of Wilson's election
