PLANS. OF CLUBS UPSET
BY WILSON'S DECLINATI0N

WASHINGTON. Feb. 27.-The dec
lination of President-elect Wilson to
accept honorary membership in the
Chevy Chase Club has caused a
change of plans on the part of nu-
merous other social and semi-social
organizations in the national cap
ital.
The Washington Riding and Hunt
Club was prepared to extend to him
an invitation to become member
but the President-eleet's decision led
it to withhold such invitation until
the coming chief executive actually
took up his official residence in the
White House. The exclusive Metro
politan, although automatically it al
ways has included presidents of the
United States in its roll of honorary
members. also will await his coming.
The University Club and other lead
ing clubs of the national capital will
adopt the same course.

great commonwealth, one which has
felt the heel of the agitator, and is
now in need of a period in which to
recuperate.
Alabama no longer requires a gov
ernor imbued with the single thought
that railroads must at all costs be
whipped into the line of his own ideas.
And Alabama no longer needs a gov
ernor who has promised to retain local
option, or to drive whisky form the
boundry of the state. Alabama no
longer needs governor enlisted in
the ranks of those whose joy in life
is agitation, unrest, excitement, tur-
moil, strife.
There is no question but that from
the standpoint of natural resources,
Alabama is second in wealth to none.
And there is no question that if the
state is given a period of peace, a
moment in which to attend to itself
and its own inherent requirements, il
will blossom forth in new colors, and
all its people will sing the praises for
peace and plenty and ever enduring
prosperity.
The citizens of Alabama should be-
come aroused To the fact that the
state has been used too long for the
stamping ground of the politician who
has only himself to serve. If there
has ever been time in which there
was need for real man, that time
has come.

Reforms That Ruin

Pulling down house to kill a
rat is the way Chief Justice White
Of the United States supreme court
describes the actions of those men
who want to tear up the constitution
because it permits some few abuses
which schemers and thieves have en-
ployed to advance their own base pur-
poses. Instead of regarding the con-
stitution from the viewpoint of what
abuses it permits it should be viewed
with regard to what abuses it pre-
yents, and then it will be seen wheth-
er' or not the chief justice correctly
sums up the situation.
The constitution Of the United
States needs no apologist among
thinking men, but it deserves much
more attention and better understand
ing by the general public. How many
men are there today outside the legal
profession and Congress who pos
sesses even the most elementary ideas
OF what is permitted and prevented
under the terms of that written in
strument? The constitution is the roof
under which we are assured the rights
to life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness, and this roof is supported by
certain pillars, some of which the re-
formers want to remove altogether.
while others advocate pulling down
the entire structure, simply because
few rats have found Judgement under
it's caves.
AS the nation grows so should the
constitution expand to cover the new
nd additional features which the ad
,ce of progress presents, but in
ITO make that expansion harmon

effort. In the near future, there is
such fine promise of an opportunity in
which to expend their energy towards
the accomplishment of the possible,
that the prohibitionists are carefully
refraining from wasting their breath.
1t is regretable, however, that Mr..
Conner and Mr.. Seed, so ardently ad
mired in their respective followers.
should persist in efforts to DESTROY
each other, and by so doing, render
the hope of electing a "dry" governor
almost impossible of realization. In
that both men might be preserved
for future campaigns, it would be ad-
mirable should the one or the other
retire.
1t would be difficult matter to
persuade Mr.. Seed that he is not as
strong as Mr.. Conner, and it would be
impossible to impress Mr.. Conner with
the idea that he is less strong than
any other man in this or any other
state. True, Seed could give proof
wherein once upon a time he retired
for the sake of sweet prohibition, and
could with fairness suggest that it is
now meet that one of the other of
the ambitious should retire. And Mr..
Seed could prove that he is more ar
dent in his embrace of the "dry" god
dess than is Mr.. Conner, for every day
he is crying to fair heaven concerning
the iniquity of grog, whereas the
former chief executive indicates in his
statements that he hopes prohibition
will not be an issue.
But at the same time, Mr.. Conner
can prove to his own satisfaction that
there is need for him. The Louisville
| and Nashville railroad is still in
course of operation. Milton H. Smith
is still on the job, and Judge Jones is
still one of the representatives of the
government. For these resons, Mr..
Seed would find it impossible to cause
the withdrawal of Mr.. Conner.
1t will therefore be incumbent on
the two to draw straws." And as
there is nothing original in that pro-
cess, it is safe to predict that it will
be eschewed.

this polecat among insects; and were it
not for the frequent vaccinations compelled
by health departments, such epidemics
would very likely be more frequent than
they now are. The bedbug hides during
the day and sometimes hibernates during
the winter When it lacks animal food, it
feeds on the juices of decayed wood or
on the dust in floor cracks. and, can go
without food for long time. 1t may
continue its existence under adverse cir
cumstances from season to season, in lum-
ber camps, In summer houses. empty
apartments and the like.
The housewife is greatly mortified by
the cerature's presence under her roof;
but she is by no means always blame
worthy. 1t may get into the travellers
or sleeping car or invade the home in the
laundry or on the clothing; thus Manning
witnessed the migration of a bedbug
across the aisle of a car from sick man
to the skirts of party of women Or 1t
may migrate through walls from one
house to another, sometimes in contin-
uous pilgrimage. especially when the
dwellers of an infested house move away,
thus cutting off the commissariat of the
parasite. 1t may then escape through
windows as we'll as walls, along water
pipes or cutters to new pastures. Thus
| the tdiest housewife may be victimized.
| Apart from ordinary dwellings, log cabins
easily become infested; ships also eItter-
| tain the bedbug in considerable degree.
Poultry houses, dove cotes and the hid
| ing places of bats may easily become in
| tested with the bedbug or nearly related
species, and slarrows' and swallows nests
under caves. which are often alive with
the vermin, may be their portal of entry
| into houses.
| A thorough determination of the bedbug
would result also in the determination OF
other dangerous insects infesting houses.
| The local application of boiling water will
| kill few bugs and drive others away,
| but serious efforts at determination re-
quire fumigation.
| Manning has called attention to bedbug
determination as enc of the measures to
| be employed in the prevention of all dis
eases whose virus is present in the blood
of the patient during the acute stage of
| the disease. OF all methods Manning says
! that there is none which would exceed in
effectiveness the annual compulsory fum-
igation Of all habitations of man.

The Band Concert Fund

The ladies of the Music Study club
who are raising the fund for the parI
concerts this summer, are much en-
couraged. The chairman Of the CON
mittee started out to collect $4,000
up to last night nearly $500 had been
subscribed. This is most cheering
Several organizations that can be
counted upon are considering the
amount they will subscribe and it is
believed that $4,000 can be raised be-
fore the end of next week.
1t used to be that band of Is or
20 musicians was considered good
enough for open air concerts, but
musical standards have been raised
and the Music Study club, which stands
sponsor for the park music, will have
a band of from 25 to 80 musicians.
Last year from some cause or other
many of the concerts were given in
East park. That was mistake. Cap
itol park is the central downtown
rendezvous for the Can't Get Away
club at night.
Beginning on the first Sunday In July
park concerts will be the attraction in

until the last of August.

Proof of Prosperity

That the evil goes further than the
correction is proved in the fact that
the editor of the Jasper Mountain
Eagle, recalling with shudder the
Birmingham beefsteaks which in other
days he has enjoyed, has taken that
iron clad oath--"Never again"
For the editor has read that cows
condemned in Birmingham as mixers
have been sold as food without re-
striction. But to all appearances, he
has not been informed that that prac-
tice, whether pregnant with evil or
not, will no longer be permitted.
The restauranters, who have grown
affluent in disposing of steaks at
prices which tend to accentuate the
high cost Of living, have just kick
to register. They are anxious that the
truth be spread abroad, that COWS in
Tested with tuberculous germs will no
longer be sold for food-even though
it might be true that the aforemen-
toned germs are invariably annihi-
lated in the process of cooking.
The Mountain Eagle contains the
following:
'It has been a habit in Bir-
mingham when tuberculous
COW was condemned as a mixer,
to sell her to the butcher at
small price and he would turn her
into meat and sell her at the reg
ular price for beef. The surpris-
ing part is that men went before
the investigation committee and
defended the practice, claiming
that in cooking the meat, the
germs were destroyed. This is
doubtless true. But the mere
thought Of such thing being
permitted is enough for US. No
steaks for us any more in Bir-
mingham."
Inasmuch as the city commission
has promised that cows condemned
hereafter as mixers will also be con-
demned as impure or insanitary food,
the editor of the Mountain Eagle may
return to Birmingham and again feast
on the succulent steaks which local
restauranters serve. And we wish to
congratulate the editor in that he is
one newspaper man of the state so
prosperous in the goods Of the world
that he can afford to pay the prices
which cafes demand for their steks..
Indeed, there are unmistakable signs
of prosperity in the land.

The Ungrounded Rumor

The Choctaw Advocate is unwilling
that the prohibitionists ask Mr.. Com
er and Mr.. Seed to retire for the sake
of harmony in favor of Colonel NAL
lory or any other man. The Advocate
observes that as both Conner and Seed
are strong men, it would be wiser to
ask the one to come, down in favor
of the other.
The logic of the Advocate is abso-
lutte, but it's agitated state of mind
especially in view of the present
cheated SPELL" is unnecessary. For the
prohibitionists are we'll aware that
neither of the two candidates would
retire from the field, and the prohi-
bitionists do not intend to make the

Shingle Roofs

Birmingham's new fire prevention
ordinance, which will become effective
October /, is attracting attention all
over the country. The lumber trade
journals are alive with comment on
the unusual departure.
The ordinance practically prohibits
the use of shingle roofs within the
city limits of Birmingham after Octo-
Der 1. Well informed lumber men say
they have never known in any city
such high percentage of fires caused
from shingle roofs as has been shown
by the reports of Fire Chief Bennett.
They are inclined to believe that there
must be some special climatic condi-
ton in Birmingham which causes
shingle roofs to curl and become pecu-
liarly- susceptible to flying sparks.
1t is subject which will be watched
with the keenest interest in every city
in the United States. Everyone ac-
knowledges that steps should be taken
to reduce fire hazard in Birmingham.
The question has been, what will do
it? Only time will show whether
shingle roofs must bear the brunt of
the blame,
