few minutes conversation with Mr..
Maynard, straightway impresses you
with his ability and talent
A man of unusual force and personal
magnetism, wide experience and thor
oughy versed in his particular line of
work, you mentally observe that he's
the right man in the right place"-the
business head of a big organization,
which, in its desire to . promote thor
oughness and artistic perfection, loses
sight of none of the essentials which will
enable it to acquire success from every
standpoint
Mr. Maynard besides. possesses a de-
gree of optimism as to the future of
Birmingham musicalfy. which is at once
refreshing and stimulati and he has
the enviable faculty of transferring to
his auditor this matchess enthusiasm
which has marked his career with sue
cess.
His desk piled high with letters and
papers the documents in evidence of
every kind and description quickly
sensed the situation and realizing that
every body connected with the Sherwood
Music school was as busy as a bee"
preparatory to the opening of that insti-
tuition on next Monday. / made my wants
known TO Mr. Maynard promptly, asking
him the question that was foremost in
my mind.
Just why did you choose Brming-
ham from among. all the other thriving
southern cities to establish your work

that Birmingham has of thoroughly
organized, well equipped school of mu-

possibilities and the outlook for Bir-

have been formulating plans and making
arrangements which have finally re-
suited in the establishment here of the
Sherwood Music school, which will open
its doors with an attendance of 200 pu-

our prospects are fine" said Mr.. May

Music school be of a great benefit to pu-
pills but to teachers as well. There are

Calls 1t "Welsh Rabbit"

THANK you for the settlement of the
Welsh rabbit natter We all know
what fine cheese has come from Wales,
made from goats milk. Years ago there
was in Wales terrible famine owing
to an unprecedented drouth. Crops were
killed, vegetation burned, streams and
ponds dried up. Cattle. horses, sheep and
other animals died or sickened so that
they became useless. The rabbit was al
ways the Welshman's tidbit. Some of
the rabbits died; those remaining were un-
fit for food Only the goats survived, and
during that season cheese was called 1.-The
Welshman's rabbit That's the story, and
1t is silly to call the well known dish a
Welsh rarebit.' There is no such dish

FOOD PRICES AND THE WAR

If merchants in the eastern states are making al excuse of the
war to charge higher prices for food, says the New York World, they
will perhaps be made later t. listen to some eleme 1ti truths Ey hay
ing stock lett unsod upon their hands.
War produces at the same time famine in market lands and gMt in
producing lands Food is contrabanl. 1t can be shipped - England
Or France only il the SCI is successfully patroled, and at buyers risk. 1t
cannot be shipped to Germany at all, and German cities already feel
the pinch of want. 1t is the price they pay or permitting an autocrat
to make war V their heads.
Railroads refuse tt bring food here for export. 1t is c1ogged some
where, waiting for peace. Imported groceries and supplies, German
beers, French wines and like commodities may for a time sell higher,
and legitimately so; the stock once exhausted cannot at present be re-
plenished. But no foods raised IN American soil have any reason for
showing scarcity unless that reason existed three weeks ago.
Later, when a impoverished world takes II the task of paying for
wanton destruction. it may be different; but just o let there be no
nonsense about raising the price of American food to consumers. Food
prices should fall, not rise.

THE LAUGHING STOCK OF EUROPE"

1t doesn't eel Sc very long since the diplomats of Europe we're
laughing themselves almost sick w President Wilson's Mexican poll
CIV They had their sde-partners in certain people in this country Win
did not and do not like Mr. Wilson They all agreed that President
Wilson and Secretary Bryan were not playing the game according to
the established rules of diplomacy. and to the credit of the United States,
were right.
Now the European diplomats, who played the game as tradition
has taught ii, have helped to bring o n a catastrophe which is likely to
overreach itself and put an end to kings and diplomacy alike. AS tor
tuerta, he is in Jamaica, drinking u and ginger and telling stories
of the old DAYS in Mexico City, his successor, the unpronounceable Car
bajal, is nearly ready to hand the government rel to the constitution
alists. and a peaceful settlement of the Mexican problem, o n a basis
which will not deny the poems a measure OF justice, will probably come
about before very long.
For lei DAYS past 10 n has called President Wilson "the laughing
stock OF Europe"-San Francisco Bulletin.

OUR VANISHED MARINE

The European wa brings most forciby to the CONSCIOUSNESS OF
the United States the great mistake it has made in permitting thu de-
cline and practical extinction of the American merchant marine. In the
period between the establishment OF this government the utbrea
of the Civil war between the states, the United States merchant marine
established a place second only to that of Great Britain in number and
tonnage of vessels, and the mistress of the SCI vas threatened VITA
eventual eclipse by the young republic. During the Civil war low
ever a large amount OF American shipping as sold tic foreigners, AMI
Confederate cruisers almost annihlated the remaining Union merchant
marine. The United States never regained its ascendancy as a sea
faring nation, due to various cause unnecessary to discuss at this
time.
Now, however, with the great powers OF Europe involved in war
export trade is in severe straights. War-idden Europe needs our
crops and other products, but we have insufficient vessels to transport
them. Some relief, it is hoped, will be afforded by the passage of the
bill in congress removing certain restrictions to the registration of for
through the transfer of OF the American coaHing vessels to the
transatlantic service. The authorization by congress of the secretary
OF the navy to use navy vessels to carry passengers, mail and freight
&c South American and European countries should provide additional
resources if the plan is found practicable upon trial. But all of these
schemes ire essentially makeshihs and serve but to accantuate thu cry
ing need OF the establishment Of an American merchant marine that
will carry the American flag to every harbor OF the world.
1t may be true, as reported, that there arr a million aliens in this
Country anxious to embark for Europe to take part in the invo1v-
ing their Netherlands. If SC, the fact may be cited as an evidence OF
their patriotism. but OF OF their good sense. Few of them have any
cause for reverence Or love Of the countries they left Want or perse-
cuuon drove most Of them o these shores, and tina any considerable
number should pine to return to offer themselves as sacrifices OF the
altar OF a n unjust selfish, inhuman war Of ACKNOWLEDGEMENT is inexpl-
cable.

Frank Weldon, commissioner for

on the contrary the directors expect
the big show to be rendered even
more important by the war. They say
that European travel will be stopped

UNITED STATES GETS CHESTY;
NOTE DELIVERED TO JAPANESE

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 22.-
Especial "A formal note defining
the position Of the United States with
respect to the war situation in the Far
East was despatched to Toxic two
day ago, Secretary of State Bryan an
nounced today. Although Mr.. Bryan
declined to discuss the contents of his
note, it was learned that this commun-
ication expressed to the Mikado a wish
to be informed whether Japan would
extend hostilities beyond Japanese ter
ritory and the German province of
Kiao Chau
Japan was told in this note that
the United States desires this infor-
nation in order to take necessary steps
to protect our interests in the Far
East, particularly in the Philippines
and Samoi. So far as can be learned
no reply has been sent to the Chinese
request that the United States act as
! an intermediary in the transfer OF
Kiao Chau from Germans to Chinese.
A mantle of secrecy almost as thick
as that which clouded the Mexican sit
uation for time has been thrown over
al diplomatic matters in Washington.
