 Former President l.. H. Nunnellee of the Alabama Press association, editor of the Centreville Press, says that he mo- ticed at the meeting of the association at Birmingham number of editors ap- peared on the streets of the Magic City in their automobiles.

 "There'll never be perfect breakfast eaten until some man grows arms long enough to stretch down to New Orleans for his coffee and over to Norfolk for his rolls, and reaches up to Vermont and digs slice of butter out of a spring house, and then turns over a beehive close to a clover patch out in Indiana for the rest.

A SUMMER SONG.

There's a time for taking slumber
 And time for eating pie, There's time to seek for pleasure
 And time to pass it by; There's time for ceremony
 And a time to let it slide, There's time for being modest
 And a time for showing pride; There's time for agitating
 And time for perfect rest, But the time to teach her swimming
 Is the time that he likes best.
