Good Road Days

This week road-building in Ala
bama will be given an impetus never
felt before. The suggestion that the
people prove their loyalty to the
movement by getting out and throw
ing dirt has met with hearty re-
sponse. Many leading citizens will
shoulder pick or shovel August IA, Is
and Is and labor for better high
ways.
News comes from many counties
that something toward good roads
will be actually accomplished this
week. County officials, civic organ
izations and the citizens generally are
showing interest. The Alabama Good
Roads association has done what it
could to further the scheme, and Gov
ernor O'Neal has been active in urg-
ing observance of the days. The gov
ernor has volunteered to set an ex-
ample for others by temporarily act
ing as "hand."
1t is useless longer to argue the
economic value of good roads. All
now realize that they mean not only
satisfaction but actual money to the
community that possesses them.
Every man should support the move
ment with hearty enthusiasm.

Meeting of the Doctors

Probably no meeting of more inn
portance to humanity could be held
than that now in session in London.
1t is the International Medical con-
gress, and physicians fpom all over
the world are in attendance.
Views will be interchanged and the
mutual benefit that will come from
the various symposiums can hardly
be estimated. Many questions of vital
interest to those working to insure
the health of mankind are yet un-
solved. At the international con-
gress men who live in widely sep
arated localities meet and discuss
problems which all are studying. The
mistakes of one may prove of the
utmost help to another. Secrets
wrested from the crucibe and the
test tube are freely talked of, and
the science of medicine is given for
WdIu HlONSlHcilJ CHdO III lilllS Will re-
dound to the help of the patient as
well as the practitioner.
Americans are taking prominent
part in the deliberations in London.
In the past few years rich men have
provided sums for the advancement
of scientific research in this coun-
try, and enthusiastic experts have
been placed in position whereby
they can pursue their experiments
under ideal conditions. Many triumphs
have already been scored by doctors in
this country, and it is safe to predict
that others will be achieved.

III All Were Lawyers

Everyone recognizes the important
place which the lawyer holds in our mod
ern civilization, but would 1t be we'll for
Birmingham to have an all-lawyer COM
mission?" remarked member of the
Chamber of Commerce.
MANY lawyers are excellent business
men, but non-professional man of busi-
ness and local experience in government
is in ORDER it seems to me. as the success
sor of Culpepper Exum, president of the
city commission.
"There are three candidates. l believe,
for the office of commissoner-ex-R
eorder Clement r. Wood and Vassar L..
Allen, lawyers. and George B. Ward, for
mer mayor and business man. If, either
Wood or Allen happened to be elected-but
such a happening is not likely-everything
at the city hall, I take it for granted,
would be run on lawyer like lines. im-
agine that day would be set for plead
ings; after the pleading on a day follow
ing would come demurrers; after the de-
murrers would come rebuttals, and after
the rebuttals surrebuttals In courts of
justice such procedure is necessary. but
in a city. commission the dear people
might he poorly served if We were to have
lawyers delays"

HEROES OF THE BALL FIELD,

From the Popular Magazine.
There are some examples of heroism
on the baseball diamond that are not
observed by the fans. Take the case
of Jack Barry, shortstop of the Phila-
delphia Athletics He was hero of an
episode that was made much of at the
time but the deep-down point OF 1t
never reached the outside world.
1t was in theslast series of the season
in Philadelphia, in 1909, and the result
of the games bade fair to point out
where the next flag would fly Ty Cobb
had spiked Baker in a game at Detroit
a few days previously. and had been
panned for it until most of the Phila-
delphia electorate was ready to mob
him. A crowd actually had surged
around him on the playing field, and
had been shooed away. by policemen.
The Philadelphia players assumed that
he would not dare insist upon his right
to the base paths In this series, and
assured each other SO. So they were
careless when they saw him coming.
But their guess was wrong. When
Cobb set out to steal a base he had no
more thought or fear of anything that
might happen to himself than he had
of jumping his team The rules of the
game gave him the right to slide feet
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-08-12

foremost. The other players knew TINS
as well as he, and 1t was their lookout
to so place themselves as to be able to
tag him without being spiked. He never
gave a thought to possible vengeance
by the populaee II he nicked Jack Bar
ry as well as his costar, Baker. When
the critical moment came he slid. And
Barry. believing with the other men,
bers of the Philadelphia team that he
would not dare do 1t, acted without cau-
tion and got spilxed-one IL the ugliest
gashes that ever was put into mans
leg on a ball field
He toppled over, weak from pain. His
fellow players rushed to him, and. see
ing his condition. prepared TO carry him
to the bench. But he regained his nerve
almost instantly.
Don't take me away, boys" he said.
"The crowd would murder Cobb. 1t was
my fault. didn't think he~ had the
nerve to do it."
He huddled on the ground for
minute. then arose, limped to his posi-
tion, and, with the calf of his leg cut
to the bone, played out the inning-to
save from possible harm the man who
had given him the wound When he
porarlly dressed, and he finished the
game, and also the other games of the
series. He and Cobb are friends and
mutual admirers today each for the
others grit

SCIENTIFIC NOTES

From the Electric News Service.
Churches are now using electric sign
advertising.
Electric ovens are coming into use in
the city bakeshops
| Huntington avenue, Boston, will be made
a Great White Way.
| Dust on electric light globes robs them
of their light giving efficiency.
| The White House kitchen has every
modern electrical convenience.
| Electric illumination is now a feature
of nearly every celebration or exposition.
| 1t is proposed to harness the Ohio river
near Louisville to generate electrical
power.
A. wireless system between Great Britain
and Canada will be in operation next Sep
tenber.
Electro-magnets are being installed by
treasure hunting ships to recover SUBJ
merged metals.
The first public telegraph office was
opened ON Seventh street. Washington,
April /, 1S45.
| Nearly 10000 incandescent lamps are re-
quired to illuminate the worlds largest
steamship, the Imperator.
Canadas water power h estimated at
1G,6OO,O00 horse power, equal to an annual
production of 367OO,OOO tons of coal; only
1,0lG.52l horse power has been developed.
Experiments are being made now on a
large British vessel that is under construc-
tion, with a gasoline electric plant that
may be placed on the bridge deck This
lset will not only supply the light, but
the wireless telegraph apparatus as well,
| SO that the occupants of the vessel may he
supplied with light and the means for
calling for assistance until the very mo-
ment of complete submergence of the ves-
sci. This generating plant will be used
only in emergencies.
An electric attachment for a target such
as is used on rifle ranges has been de-
signed by an Australian. 1t Keeps the
target continually in motion. backward
and forward on the track The figures are
constantly in action, and il is an entirely
different proposition to hit once, especially
In vulnerable spot, than IL they were
stationary. Such target is particularly
good for use in the militia or the reg
ular army, as in the case of war it is
not likely that the enemy would stand
still until somebody succeeded in shooting
them.
Two applications for electric heating are
used in connection with drafting work.
One is the use of a portable combination
heater and fan, ordinarily employed by
hairdressers to dry their customers hair
after washing, to dry the ink on tracings
This wrinkle" shortens the time required
to complete the tracing, as the freshly
linked lines must be dry before T-square
or triangle can be moved over the tracing
The other idea is to dry blueprints by

The Fate of Hartman

George o. Hartman of st. Louis
has been pronounced leper and SEN
fenced to spend the rest of his life in
an isolated cabin with a Chinaman,
similarly afflicted, as his only COM
panion. Hartman's fate is singularly
sad Hope has gone from him. Never
again will he be permitted to mix and
mingle with his kind. Torn from wife
and friends, he can only sit silent as
the clock ticks off his progress toward
the grave.
1t is the decree of science that this
should be his lot. Association with
others might spread the dire disease
from which he suffers. For it there is
no cure known. It's students are posi-
tive that it is communicable by per-
sonal contact. Therefore complete.
segregation of it's victims is necessary
for the welfare of those not afflicted.
The national government owes
tremendous debt to Hartman. He con-
tracted his maldy, it is said, while
serving as a soldier in the Philippines.
In the course of his duties he was as
signed as a gaurd at leper camp,
and in this way came to his doom.
His comfort henceforth should be the
nations care. In way, the United
States is responsible for his condi-
tion. The best medical skill should be
employed to study his case. 1t is pos
sible that constant observation by ex-
perts might lead to some knowledge
Of the horrible disease that science
does not now possess.
