You ask
 Q. Why should I buy my litho- graphing in Birmingham?"

A. LII answering Will aSk anOCnef question. "Why nOt?'
 Certainly you can not deal so satis- factorily with a concern hundreds of miles off as you can with one right in your own city.
 There is scarcely business man in Birmingham who, if he was told he could locate plant here like that of Roberts & Son, with an investment of approximately S2OO,OOO.OO and with a weekly cash pay roll equalling S1OO,OOO.OO per annum, would not gladly donate land or money to insure the establishment of such an indus try in our midst.
 Why not, now that 1t is here SUD- port it, work for it and help add to it's volume of business so that it's success may be increased and it's pay roll made larger?
 If you are one of our regular custo- mers already, tell your friends and in- vite them, also, to patronize Bir- mingham Institution to their com munity's benefit and yours.
 Other important personal reasons why you especially are interested in having new job designed or your present job duplicated in Birming- ham, is that you do not have to wait for a monthly or semi-annual call from an Out-Of- town, out-0f-state salesman but by merely dropping us postal or giving telephone message, can have an experienced local sales man call on you promptly any day with samples of just what you want;
 Youcan see sketchor proof prompt- ly and if slight changes are wanted, they can be made the same day;
 You can talk. if necessary, person. ally with the artist-designers and Litho-engravers;
 You can give personal directions as to changes or alterations;
 You can have emergency orders executed promptly.
 See the special display of litho- graphing in the window of Roberts & Son this week showing the en- graved stones, transferred litho- plates ready for the press and sam- ples of finished work, equal, if not superior, to anything you have seen anywhere in bank, commercial or col or lithographing, bonds, diplomas, in- surance forms, etc.
 Ifnot user of lithography, no mat ter whether you have yet decided upon becoming one or not, we will feel more than repaid for this series of articles if you will phone us today and give us the privilege of submitting samples and discussing frankly sug- gestions for better result bringing stationery for your business without obligatiOn upon your part to buy.
 Call Main 8461 now and make ap- pointment with one of our Lithograph salesmen Won't you? Thanks!- ROBERTS & SON

The tear belongs to the grave
It is the voice of sorrow, the wal

that hides the great mystery be
yond is the tapestry Of hope ant
faith. Why should the unknown
inspire fear, paint a pail of inky
darkness, evoke an awe of terror
and agony!
is this the promised punishment
of eternal torture; the payment
of sin, the reward Of righteous
ness, the coin of heart love, the
value Of the treasure Of con
science? Is there no other con-
ceivable connection that can
bridge the chasm, harmonic
faith spiritual and moral con

maintenance of the souls immut-
able standard of justice, truth
and morality. Every agency that
strengthens the fibre of human
nature and helps to promote the
universal brotherhood is a link
between the present and the here
after.
The greatest Of all these arches
is mans service to humanity; the
keystone mans honor and integ-
rity. Cannot we, with charity
and justice, mark some of those
humane characteristics to or de-

lowest vices which most often
masquerades in false garb as a
virtue. But what after all is
patriotism? My country, right
or wrong, and just because it is
my country y" This is clearly
nothing more than collective self
ishness. Often enough, indeed,
it is not even collective. 1t means
merely, "My Business interests
against the business interests Of
other people, and let the taxes of
my fellow citizens pay to support
them.h At other times it means
pure pride Of race, and pure lust
of conquest. g My country gainst

right to annex tnoccupied terri.
