sustain it. and demonstrate it as the en- during form of government for the ben eft of mankind. Democracy and mon opoly are incompatible, because monopoly consists of denial of the principle of liberty in sphere of action that touches most intimately and vitally the life of the people But this does not mean that we should set our face against the advance of progress in industry. The economies of large scale production to the exent that they exist, the advantages of integration of industry the sustaining force of sta bilization in industry, the prevent Of feast and famine, the prevention of cut-throat competition, can all be encompassed in a democratic state without yielding to monopoly in principle or in effect. The problem of democracy is to conserve the deficiencies of industry to the highest de- gree that is compatible with the funda- mental conception of liberty and freedom in industry. The problem of government is not only not to thwart deficiencies, but to stimulate them, to aid them, to develop them to the highest degree that is com patibe with the general welfare. That is the problem for democracy. That is the great challenge that comes in the history of civilization to this great republic with renewed insistence out of this epochal war
 It requires that we shall coordinate and marshal all of the best forces that arc in our industrial. business and political life, for it's solution. The critical function is easy, the constructive function is hard.
 We seek to build up, and not to destroy. We desire to aid. and not to harass.
 To preserve for the benefit of posterity the real essence of liberty and freedom in opportunity which America has always prided herself in, Is the fundamental source of our effort in democracy.

A Bachelor at the Game of Toys
By MRS. ,. F. REID.

Sol Caheen wears genuine holiday smile on his countenance today. and talks dolls and toys as earnestly as does the old maid about the raising of chill dren. And did you find an American Santa Claus shop" he was asked, while he was prancing around like kid with the playthings. Yes, indeed these are all American brands. I have been peculiarly lucky. I was crossing the river with Buster Brown and George Blinn when I passed a great quantity of American toys, and if 1t had not been for Buster and George crossing with me, I would not have been able to have secured these toys. Howsoever George McC1ary got across we do not know, but we found him on the way the next morning."
 Now as Birmingham is on the river (only just a little distance between), may be this enterprising bachelor has found toyland acros sthe Warrior, and beat MT. McClary to the game.
 At all events. he is overpeased at something, and is as jolly as if he were the real Santa Claus, and shakes hands with genuine holiday grip. He has got

STARTS NEW PLAN ID. ENCOURAGE SAVING.
Anonymous Donor Deposits Money to Be Distributed
 Among Youthful Savers

A weIl-known citizen, who is a great
 friend of children, has deposited the sum
 of $50 with the Jefferson County bank of
 Birmingham, to be equally distributed to
 the first 100 boys and girls who apply to
 the bank for the same, on conditions that
 that the applicant must be under l5 years
 of age, dependent on his or her own ef-
 forts for a living, or who is contributing
 to the support of the family, and will add
 50 cents of his or her own money to
 the amount donated, and with the s1 thus produced open a savings account with that bank, the depositor to make monthly deposits of not less than 10 cents for the next year. the entire amount to remain In the bank at interest until January l, 1Slb at which time if the deposits have been kept up as above, the donor will add 50 cents additional to the account of each depositor who will agree to carry the deposit for another year, making 10 cents monthly deposits, but if any depositor fails to make the deposits during the year the 60 cents donated to such depostor win be forfeited to those who have made such deposits it being the idea to form boys and girls savings club out of the 100 who accept this proposition.
 It is the earnest desire of the donor of this fund to help the children of Bir- mingham who are striving to better their condition by intoxicating in them the habit of small savings, and to help the community by having these young de- positors setting such example. It is his hope that other generous people will emulate his example and make such do- nations as they feel inclined, and deposit the same in some of the local banks in sums of $1O s25 and s50 or more, to be used in forming savings clubs of a sim | liar character.

MUCH WILL BE REQUIRED

When these conditions will obtain in in ternational industry it will require all of our vision and discipline, enterprise and conservatism, sagacity and daring, to meet them. It will require that our in dustries shali be integrated and stabilized so that not only will the economies of sustained production be available, but it will require that the social well being of the workers shall also be sustained upon a proper level, to the same end. It will
 requirea a large-minded intelligence and vision in the division of the fruits of in- dustry between capital and labor So- cialized autocracy did this before this epochal war, in manner that challenged the admiration of the world. It is our task to demonstrate that representative democracy can be equally efficient and serviceable. For a monarchy this task is l relatively simple, the task for democracy l is far more difficult. For in democracy we cleave to certain essential fundamen- l tai principles as the covenant of our faith, whereas in autocracy there are no such principles that impede translation of the ory into effect We believe in democracy in America. We believe that it is our first

scendant of the Indian princess and of the Boiling and Rolfe families.
 The first member of this Williams family came to Alabama more than 60 years ago from Virginia. He was probate judge of this county from May, 1850, to May, 1885. Before moving to this coun- ty MT Williams married Miss Boiling in Virginia.
 Circuit Solicitor D. c. Almon and the attorneys for Bill Hale of Moulton do not agree as to whether or not Hale should be allowed bond. MT. Almon takes the position that it is not a bailable case while Hale's attorneys claim he is en- titled to bond. A habeas corpus trial may be called.
 Several days ago Hale shot and killed Lawrence Williams, at his home in Lawrence county. The body was found by Mrs. Williams a short time after the killing. Williams had been shot three times. The case has attracted much in- forest

 Trade Is good" said Mr. Caheen. "the
 city Is full of shoppers, and it Is wonder full what a call there Is for toys on
 wheels, even the children are wanting au- tomobiies."
 Strolllng around from shop to shop we had already noticed the packages or dered by Santa Claus, and among them
 many mechanical designs and things in
 motion that the desire to ride had even
 entered toyland, and after the holidays
 there will be many wheels flying on tho sidewalks.
 The out-of-town buyers are very busy,
 and are shopping early; the stores are well packed and there stlll remain four
 more days. There are many who have bought all they needed, but will be
 tempted again when they see the won
 derful stock of "goodies'' remaining for santa Claus to claim. There seems no room for tho blues In the business center today; the mothers are making great plans, the fathers are not worrying: the children are peeping | around to hear all of Santa's secrets. and so long as the bachelors and old maids
 are kept smiling there is no further anx- 1ety felt for happy time.

INDUSTRIAL COMPETITION

While the significance Of Germany's ef- fcency may perhaps have been exagge-- ated, nevertheless it is true that an in- dLstrial as well as a military organiza- ton has been quietly developed in Eu- rope that has eclipsed anything of the kind that we have seen. Economies have been induced in production; scientific methods effected in marketing and dis tribution; exploitation through combina- tions of an international character have been developed and are the complement of a military machine that has comma nd- ed the admiration of the world. Within the months last past these facts have not been apparent to us alone. England, France and Italy have. under the pres sure of overpowering necessity, endeav- ored to specialize industry for greater economy and effectiveness and to de- gree that it is difficult for us to under stand. These influences will obtain after pt ace las come To speculate as to the future conditions following the war is idle. But it is still greater folly to as- sume that in the long future these less
