of 100000 a year or a net saving of
$1,150,000. 1t is also reported that
McArdle, chairman of the House roads
and bridges committee, has prepared
a new bill which comedies exactly
with the governors views and which
will be introduced this week. On top
of these various rumors and reports
comes the following statement from
c. c. Dill, the governors secretary,
which is open to it's own interpreta-
ton:
'The governor has not made any
trades or combinations with any
member of either house of the legis-
will he make any such agreements
He hopes that some legislation pro-
viding for the building of good roads
and for the abolition and combining
of many of the present boards and
commissions will be enacted, but will
not make single trade or compro-
mise agreement.
THE statement given out by Mr.
Sims of the house that the governor
had proposed a compromise is with.
out foundation, and no Legislation
other than that touching upon the
subject of good roads was discussed
by the governor with the Republican
house committee at the meeting
which resulted from the committees
calling at the governors office for
conference"
Lively Ten Days Ahead
Only ten days more of the session
remain. Consequently the night SEES
sions begin this week and will CON
tinue each day until the close, next
week. What effect this last weeks
rumpus is going to have on the re,
suits is highly problematical, though
both Houses passed a lot of more or
less important bills this week Prac-
tically 100 bills have seen the light

duced since the 4o-day limit, so rapid
and sometimes hasty action will have
to be taken on many of them.
In these last days the appropriation
bill, nine items, of which Governor
Lister vetoed, will play big part.
The care with which he scrutinized
it's provisions is well illustrated in
one little detail-a detail which the
joint committee in spite of all it's
self-announced careful, painst.king
study, overlooked (?)-an appropria-
ton of $500 year for custodian of
the commissary at the soldiers home,
a position which does not exist. Some
brother of the faithful clan was to
have been taken care of at larger
salary, probably, than he had ever re-
ceived in his life, and would have
been taken care of, had not Governor
Lister put his pencil through it and
struck it out.

The governors knife reduces the
of $9,563 ,628.O7 to $685., 57S.O7, but
bear in mind that there would have
been more of a decrease if the law
allowances. AS it is he can only
veto, and there are some items in the
bill as returned that doubtless would
have been made less otherwise.
Bear in mind, also, as he said in the
last paragraph of his message, that
the budget would have been much
less if the legislature had seen fit to
abolish or consolidate the offices as
he recommended.

One of the oldest of the old fashioned
neighborhood settlements of jefferson
county is the one known as crumley's
chapel. 1t is three miles west of Pratt
City on the new Jasper road. A family
of Crumleys made their pioneer home
there years before Industrial plants were
located in that direction or the west
ern section. of Birmingham was developed.
Year by year other families have gone
to the Crumley neighborhood, and other
homes have been made near the original
Crumley homestead. At first all were
farmers. but now a number of men whose
business is in town are living there The
pleasure of being In the country is an
airacton; and as the distance to car
lrs is short and the roads good,
arrangement is highly satisfactory.
people own horses and buggies and
very easily go back and forth. Those
who farm are engaged in market gar
dening and in raising cotton. The nearby
industrial section offers a good market
for fresh vegetables The community is
prosperous and happy. more attrac-
tive place could hardly be found. There
are broad fields, pure air, beautiful views
and peace and quiet that denote not stag
nation, but contentment.
The Methodist church of Crumley's
Chapel Is one of the very old churches
of the county. An old landmark it has
been the early home of several churches
of Pratt City and other places. These
churches are now independent branches
of the Crumley Chapel church. AS is often
the case in country communities where
distractions are few, the church is a chief
interest of all the neghborhood. The
handsome new church building and the
well organized Sunday school are ndi-
cations of the attitude of the neighbor-
hood toward this church.
The public school at Crumleys Chapel
holds position very much like that of the
church. For years a community interest.

this method and by the collection and
study of statistics from all available
sources new light is thrown on the
cancer question, the findings will he
spread abroad through all availabla
channels. The society will endeavor to
obtain the cooperation of magazines
and the daily press and will further
the organization of lecture courses in
women's clubs, factories and wherever
opportunity offers Local branch as
sociations will probably be formed,
and all available agencies utilized u
spread authoritative information on the
subject of cancer to every city and
village In the country. The new as
sociation will not undertake medical
research and will not encroaeh upon
the work of any existing agency, but
will devote all its energy to the dis
semination of information provided by
the multitude of present workers IN
the field.

The Claim of Radium
Radium is considered by enthusiasts
to promise curative agency of un-
matched beneficence to mankind, but
We must know much more than we do
now of its effects before we can abate
in the slightest the urgent emphasis
on surgical treatment. We have not
yet been able in this country to make
an authoritative determination of its
value. Few American surgeons have
sufficient radium available to give II
thorough trial, especially as 1t appears
that extensive doses sometimes cure
when smaller amounts have but little
effect.

of cases can be cured with radum and
in the meantime the Society for the
Control of Cancer warns the public
that early surgical treatment affords
the best chance for cure of cancer.
While the results of radium must be
taken into consideration at the same
time the men who have reported the
best results are still urging early OPP
GRAFTON whenever possible.
Society for Control of Cancer
To meet the need of a definite spe-
cial agency to fight the battle of So
ciety against this disease, the Amer
ican Society for the Control of Cam
Ger has been formed Patterned some
what after the National Association
for the Study and Prevention of Tu-
berculosis, yet recognizing an entire-
1y different problem and planning diff
ferent methods. the new organization

much for popularizing sound medical

leaders in the world of affairs as
George c. Clark, James Speyer, New

is identified with several of the great
movements for social advance. The
movement started in a committee APP
pointed by the American genealogical
society. The organization was approved
by the other constituent bodies of the
Congress of American Physicians and

come from the Clinical Congress of
Surgeons of North America, at its re-
