Triple Benefits of Lock IT

When water flowed over the 63-foot dam of Lock IT on the Warrior river Saturday afternoon, it signalled the approaching completion of many years work. Navigation the year round from the upper stretches of the Warrior river to Mobile was the ob- ject sought when the work was begun, and vet the completion of Lock IF will add triple benefits to Alabama.
 Navigation is the first advantage offered. A second factor is the enor- nous water power possibilities de- veloped by the 63-foot dam, which will be utilized as soon as proper legal steps have been taken.
 An advantage which has not been emphasized, however, is the creation in Alabama of an artificial lake oo miles long. This lake, flanked as It IS on either side by beautiful mountain ranges, offers ideal sites for country homes and recreation structures. It's proximity to Birmingham means that this lake will be more and more utll- ized as a playground, as improved highways are built, so that the most advantageous sites on the lake may pc 
 reached by automobile At
 Large bodies of fresh water are rare enough in the south to give the state possessing lake of this magnitude neculiar advantage as resort sec tion

Eagle Captured in shelI,x

There is splendid specimen O. the golden or war eagle on exhibition at Michael Romeos place of business" said sportsman. Tt was captured on Oak mountain in Shelby county by Tom Brasher. This eagle, with some four others. evidently young birds was caught with steel trap baited with a small kid tied to it. His captors con ceoled themselves nearby and when the kid bleated they hastened to seize their quarry.
 "fhis brings up an interesting mat ter as to birds of prey. The Birmingham Arms and Cycle company Is offering bounties for hawks and owls. Tor all large species of hawks and owls, such as red tailed chicken hawks, and horned owls the prize is s1; medium sized hawks, blue darters barn owls and marsh hawks, 50 cents for all small hawks and owls, 25 cents. Birds that are badly shot are not so valuable as those in good condition"

THE MEANEsT TRADE

Every one has known in wsy that interruptions men have been selling mar cotie drugs to school children. But was any one aware of the extent oe the prac- charge made in Harlem? While Detec- tive Caspers vas watching one susnect in East One Hundred and Sixth street after school hours
 Eight boys between l2 and Is years old went up to him. one a; time. Each handed him money, and each got some- thing from him. I arrested him and found in his pockets 2S decks of heroin and $24S0 in silver, showing that he had done big business
 This is a disheartening revelation cf human depravity. Can men possibly en- gage in a meaner CT more contcmptibIe pursuit than to sell children habit form ing drugs that degrade their character and ruin their lives? Certainly every par- ent will share Magistrate Herbert's wish that 'ie could send these wretched offen- ders to state prison for 20 years.
 The police have made considerable pros- ress in combating the drug evil. They will deserve special commendation if they can reduce it's prevalence among minors by further arrests of the degraded dealers who make their living by this corruption of youth. But what commentary on city morals that school children should require police protection of this nature.

Dr. Wveth's Latest Publication

Dr. John A. Wyeth, born and reared in Alabama, but for many years pre- eminent among the physicians and surgeons of New York and known and bonored as the foremost founder ot the New York Polyclinic Medical school, has contributed extensively not only to the literature of his pro fession but he has written brilliantly on many historic and literary topics His book "With Sabre and Scalpe is one of the most instructive and en- tertaining historic works ever written about the south.
 pr. Wyeth's latest publication Is brochure entitled "The Great Repub- lie" It covers only eight pages, but in that limited space the author dis cusses luminously and with rare vigol the Mexican situation. He makes a stirring argument in favor of armed | intervention on the part Of the Onl- ted States and of the annexation o1 Mexico to this country. He looks forward to the time when all North America will be under one government and this vast territory he visualizes as "Tbe Great Republic"
 While American citizens as a rule uphold President Wilson's policy and therefore would look with dis favor upon any movement for the con- quest of Mexico, Dr. Wyeth writes with such sincerity, with such en- thusiasm and with such gripping style that everybody who desires to keer up with live topics will not fail to procure copy of "The Great Re public" and read it.

THE BREAKFAST SMILE

From the Indianapolis News
 If a dinner smile is worth a dollar, a breakfast smile is surely worth two, for then the need is more than twice as great. In many homes breakfast is d disordered rout, with time in hot
 pursuit It is merely an interruption in the flight from bedroom to office, school or shop. And where haste is the rule it is wonder that facetious witticisns fly quick and true, and that things are said which cause unpleasant recollec- | tions when, an hour later, the day is in
 abnormal sensitiveness.
 Happily, the hate that engenders
 satrical gibes also serves to mitigate their severity, and by the time the fam | fly is assembled for the next meal, much | that was said in hate at breakfast is forgotten. But not all of it. A chance remark uttered without thought Is very | likely to open an old wound and send some member of the family about his business with a grouch that will make
 his day one of pain ro him and his as-
 sociates.
 i. It is this occasional shift that con demns the whole practice of giving way | to petty annoyances at breakfast time. One way to avoid 1t is to get up 10
 minutes earlier. This affords time for leisurely dressing and an opportunity 1 to put the mind in order. Another and
 a better way, is to rise with song on your lips. Let 1t be 8 raucous croal
 sadly out of tune. if you can do no bet. ter, but be sure that 1t is merry song
 And for the person who has a strong
 mind and a modicum of will power there
 is the simple plan of resolving to be pleasant. But whatever the scheme. it's
 success will bring a new and fresher
 outlook to the experimenter. Nor will l 1t affect him alone.

optimistic. Warren c. Harding, United States senator-elect from Ohio, was one of the speakers and his remarks on railroads and government were of deepest significance, for he made impressive demands upon public regulators to cease from placing unfair restrictions upon railway oper- ations and developments and to more promptly grant that relief so neces- sary to maintain the credit of these vast arteries of commerce and permit them to maintain and develop their plant
 The other speaker-there were only two on the programme for addresses was Fairfax Harrison, president of the Southern railway. MT. Harrison IS coming to be recognized more and more as a leader in the railroad world. Being a felicitous speaker, he is in vited to make addresses in all parts of the country. At the railway ban uuet he discussed "the existing sys- tenn of irresponsible, rigid and divided regulation" He pointed out that a more satisfactory system of control was a problem for statesman; 1t was, he declared, statesman's op- portunity. Of all MT. Harrison's recent speeches this was probably the most telling. It has been printed in pamph- let form and widely circulated.
 The south may well be proud of hav- ing man of Mr Harrison's ability and broad equipment at the executive head of its most extensive railroad system

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 An East Cleveland man visited Roches- ter not long ago. He came back greatly impressed by that city's hustling ways.
 He told one thing about the town that it in this fashion:
 Why" he said in his exuberant way. tits the blamedest town you ever saw for getting up steam. I was out in one of the suburbs the day before I came home and all at once heard the derndest racket behind me. looked around and up the street came a rural free delivery wagon drawn by big team of horses on the dead run. It whirled by me and went around the next corner on the dead run

The Tide Has Turned

Secretary of the Treasury w. G. McAdoo, on his way to California, stopped in Chicago Sunday night, and in the course of a short interview said that he looked for "a tremendous era of prosperity next year." He is receiving reports from all sections of the country showing that the organiza- ton of the reserve banks and the freight rate increase have done much toward "steadying business condi- tions." He accentuated the fact that the tide had turned.
 Mir. McAdoo said that the war had of course, been injurious to every na tion, but he thought this country hat reached the point now where in some ways the war is an actual benefit to it.

THE ELECTRIC FIELD
From the Electric News Service.

From the Electric News Service.
 About 5000 electrical vehicles are in use
 in Europe. The United States leads in
 the use of the electric automobile.
 The government is erecting new radio
 station at San Diego, Cal. An electrical device has been invented to ''cure" logs and lumber to prevent sap strains.
 An instantaneous electric water heater Is now made, which gives hot water on de-
 mand. By turning the faucet to the left hot water is obtained and by turn ing it to the right cold water flows. An electric floor scrubber will clean 5000 square feet of floor an hour. The scrubber consists of a motor-driven brush and tanks for clean and dirty water. Electricity is being used as a source of , heat and power in large canning fac tories.
 The superdreadnaught California" to be built at New York navy yard, will be the first American battleship to be driven by electric motors.
 The main telegraph, telephone and rail
 way signal cables in the canal zone are being placed in an underground conduit system stretching entirely across the isthmmus and adjoining the Panama canal and Panama railroad Branches will be built from the main conduit to the most important points,
 By the completion few weeks ago o' another long link in the chain of electric interurban railways radiating from Dallas the Texas Traction company of that place now has an electric railway system o1 approximately 250 miles-by far the longest in Texas and the longest in the whole south.

The Nightcap Back Again

The old fashioned nightcap-not the sort that literally warmed the cookies of the heart and induced sweet dreams-is once more becoming popu- lar. thanks to the industry of fresh air reformers" in preaching the ad- ,vantages of sleeping with the windows of ones bedroom open all the year around
 Writes gentleman to New York newspaper: q don't wear a nightcap myself, but they tell me that night caps have come in again, more or less. When I was a boy everybody wore them. men, women and children. In those days bedrooms in winter were colder than Greenland's icy mountains and you had to wear a nightcap to protect your head. Then we came to have our houses better heated, with more heat in the bedrooms, and the nightcap fell into disuse. But nowa- days, with our modern ideas about ventilation, we sleep with our win dows open, and so again have to pro- tect our heads, and so, it seems, night caps have come back
 This quietly humorous observer of his fellow man is quite right. The nightcap has come back, but unob- trusively. It does not, so to speak, Haunt itself in the public cye-that is. the regular" old fashioned night cap does not. But of sleeping hoods we have many sorts, sedulously ad- vertised for those who believe in sleeping either on porch, or else with all the windows wide open and arctic breezes blowing through.
 However, even these vigorous ones do not need a nightcap, or even a sleeping hood, if nature originally gave them full head of hair and they have managed to retain 1t. Those of us who are without hair, or much of it, have suffered inconvenience by trying to follow fashions in hygiene. A bald-headed person needs some sort of protection if he is going to sleep with his windows open in winter time, but people with plenty of hair on their heads should not pamper themselves and weaken their resisting powers by wearing either nightcap or sleeping hood" Keeping the head too warm does not make for refreshing slumber and is apt to breed colds. For those who need it the nightcap is an excel lent thing.
