TWO O'CLOCK BRAVERY
One Brand of Courage Few People
POssess--Yitality at Lowest Ebb

From the New York American.
How brave are you al o'clock In the
morning?
The question is not joke
The answer means a great deal-in
fact. it goes a very long way--toward
proving just how much OF hero or
coward you may be.
1t really makes no difference whether
II is citizen meeting a hold-up man
on dark street at that hour whether
it is man deciding about going down
stairs to face burglars then. or soldiers
being aroused to Withstand the a. m.
charge of the enemy.
That is the time to test bravery. A
chain. It is well known, is only as
strong as its weakest link. and maj is
really only as brave as his lowest point
Eof vitality will permit
It is at 2 O'Clock in the morning that
mans vitality is at its lowest ebb. all
| the physical forces are then at their
lowest ebb, and every military man of
experience knows that the "2-o'eloclS
courage counts; he knows that IL a
soldier is really brave at that hour he
need never fear of his becoming a cow
ard. as he is really a remarkable man.
A well fed man win fight better than
a half-starved man, whether he be civ
ilian or soldier. and this is the same
principle as the so-called "2-o'cloclx
bravery" for the half starved man
lacks vitality. Just as the average man
lacks vitality at o'clock I'm the morn
ing.
If you are anxious to know Just how
brave you are make the test some morn
ing at 2, when you hear burglars in
your house. II you crawl snder the
ed clothes you are probably quite a
normal man, but If you rise boldly from
your bed. CRAPS the nearest weapon and
sally forth TO meet the robbers, you
are indeed a brave man and should be
proud OF yourself.
Any veteran of some great war like the
rebellion, who has been through two or
three years of 1t. will tell you that the
most difficult test of courage Is to be
aroused from his sleep by the shril1 bla ast
of bugle and long roll If drums, and or
dered to charge an enemy unseen or only
dimly seen at . o'clock in the morning
Marching into battle under the bright
sunlight is not so difficult and the sea-
soned veteran enjoys the thrill. but even
the most hardened veteran feels creepy
and uneasy turning out at 2 O'Clock in the
morning to meet enemy amid the
shadows of night. and this Is solely be-
cause of a natural physical weakness at
that hour and has nothing to do with
that mental weakness called "cowardice.p

tied in Birmingham before. and a va
riety of new offerings. written especially

"A Winning Miss The Sunny Side of
Broadway Whose Little Girl Are Your

well as tabloid editions. Mr.. voolfolk

cured what he considers the best tabloid

sought novelty and variety In the cos
tuning, as well as in the scenery.

seats may be had for the Saturday matt
nee week in advance. The night per-
formances are at T:3o and o'clock. and

UNION PRAISES
W.R.HEARST

LOS ANGELES. June 16.-''The
Hearst newspapers have been stead
fast friends of the Farmers Union,
and have given US invaluable as
sistance. The personal interest of Mr..
Hearst and the splendid editorial and
other help of John Temple Graves
have done much to enable us to ac-
complish what We have done"
This was the assertion Of Charles
S. Barrett, of Union City, Ga, presi-
dent of the great and rapidly grow
ing Farmers Union. who in ten years
has become one of the most potent
personalities in American life. Mr..
Barrett was in Los Angeles Sunday.
He will leave this evening for San
Francisco, on his way to Basin. Wyo.,
and Bismarck, n. Oak, to attend
farmers conventions.
Mr Barrett is the guiding genius
of the Farmers Educational and Co
operative Union, which has $4,000
local lodges and 100000 members.
Union Awakened Dixie.
our UISanlzatlon is Dullt on the
principle Of education and co-opera
ton among farmers" said Mr.. Bar
rett yesterday. The South was back
ward in agricultural development, but
there has been a great awakening
and the Farmers Union, in many
ways, has been the greatest f1nancier
in the change. The union was first
mainly a Southern organization, but
our greatest growth now is in the
Middle West.
The South has depended almost
wholly on cotton. The union taught
the farmers the necessity of growing
other things; raising their own hay.
grain and meat, and this diversity OF
production is one of the foundation
stones of our new prosperity.
My own State of Georgia was far
down in the list Of States, but so re-
markable has been the progress made
that the Government reports place it
fourth in agricultural products now,
Educate the Farmers.
we try to educate the farmers and
then to bring them into cooperation
in any direction feasible. We have
not started many stores. In the South
the lodges built and operate ware
houses; in the West, packing plants
and elevators.
we do not run for Office or nomi-
nate candidates. We have not a thing
to do with partisan politics, but We
retire a man now and then to private
life just by way of example"
