Highway Is Important.

The coming of the Jackson highway pathfinders to Birmingham is a mat ter of the utmost importance to the citizens of this community" said Her man Beck, who has worked dilligent- ly to bring the Jackson highway through this city. We read of the good that can be accomplished by excellent highways. Much publicity has been given to this question during the last 10 years, but despite this fact all of us do not grasp the significance of this road from Chicago to the gulf.
 Nothing will do more towards get ting a great number of tourists to stop over here each month in the year and each day in the week than the placing of Birmingham on the official route. It means that we will profit greatly from this class of patronage which is only a small item in the total amount of good that will be derived by this highway coming to Birmingham.
 "The farmers in the surrounding ter ritory will be enabled to come to the city oftener. They will come in with fresh vegetables and produce, sell their products at reasonable price and spend their money with Birmingham merchants. The benefits are numerous and we are making valiant effort 70 get this route here"

BIount,s Fine Fair

"The people of Blount county had a fine and successful fair at Oneonta,'' said Commissioner John R. Hornady, who made an address there yesterday. ''The exhibits reflected credit upon the people who managed the fair and showed much progress on the part of the people of Blount county"
 MT. Hornady spoke in favor of the ed- ucational amendment and his address was well received.
 There is some opposition to the amendment in Blount county, but we are hopeful that the people will roll up q good majority in favor of it on election day. On my trip back, I was much pleased to find such a strong sentiment in the various towns between Birming- ham and Oneonta for the educational amendment. The people of northeast Jefferson appeared to be favorable and keenly interested

---------------so.--------- SUBMARINES IN THE ARCTIC

From the Providence Journal.
 That the submarine does not Command the sea- is once more proved by the sinking of two German undcrsea boats by Russian torpedo boateon Monday.
 The scene of this exploit was the Mur- man coast-the Arctic shore of the Kola peninsula in northern Russia.
 The Murnnan coast occasionally appears in the news of the day. Its name Is a corruption of the word Norman and it's all-the-year freedom from ice accounts for its having been chosen by the Rus sian government in 1895 as the site of the naval harbor of Alexandrovsk.
 The submarines had ventured far from home. having rounded Scandinavia and made their way almost to the White sea. They had been engaged in attack ing a Russian wireless station when the Czars averaging torpedo boat bore down upon them
 The number of the Kaiser's undersea craft that have been sent to the bottom since the war began has not been off cially stated at Berlin. but months ago it was known that the figures were more than so,

 Once set rolling, the ball spins mer- rily on. Housewives and mothers be- come habitual gamblers. There are trips to the pawnbroker or thefts from hubby's pockets. If these perfidies are discovered there is domestic scene. The other alternative is even worse. If there is no interference at home, eventually the police are notified and an eminently respectable nelghoor- hood is scandalized by raid which ends in a trip to a police station in patrol wagon.

Thinks south Sectional

Its more than passingly strange" said Superintendent D. M. Weakley Of the Alabama Boys Industrial school, that sectionalism in the south does not die out. While it has been more than 50 years since the struggle between the states, the southerners still hold on to that spirit more or less.
 q have been impressed with the fact that when Dixie is played by the band' the people get up and generally take hats off. On the other hand when America or the Star-Spangled Banner, our national hymns, are played the southern people do not so honor them | think this is a fact that should be stressed. It is call for patriotism and every child should be taught to know these martial strains when played and should rise to his feet and take hats off"

The present styles may look foolish to you But we can remember when it was considered fashionable for girls belt to be smaller than her necklace 1 The other day we saw a girl wearing a skirt that was long enough to hide

fertilizer necessary for the putting greens. And practically everyone in Bir- mingham who makes or owns anything that can be made use of in beautifying this park and playground, have offered to donate it to the city.
 l have indeed never known of such in terest being manifested in public work. Louisville, Memphis, Chicago and vari- ous other cities have municipal golf links in connection with their public parks. Ali these have proven successful and popular and are maintained by the regu- lar city street and park departments.
 To prepare this city park property for golf links and backgrounds will necessi- tate no appropriation on the part of the city. The regular city street forces will do the cleaning up and clearing up and the balance will be done by the generous public, scores of whom have already of- fered to subscribe and will do so as soon as the plans for a public building on the grounds are completed The Age-Her- aid and the writer will undertake this mission.
 Birmingham needs playground. The city owns park of nearly 1S0 acres in the rough. bought for park purposes, and ideal for such, and the citizens are going to use it for this purpose.

THE WIND AND THE SEA

By Bayard Taylor. The sea is jovial comrade Ho laughs wherever he goes: His merriment shines in the dmpling
 lines
 That wrinkle his hale repose; He lays himself down at the feet of the
 sur, s And shakes all over with glee, And the broad-backed pillows fall faint
 on the shore,
 In the mlrtE of the mighty sea- But the wind is sad and restless, And cursed with an inward pain; You may hark as you will, by valley or
 hill.
 But you hear him still complain. He walls on the barren mountains, And shieks on the wintry sea; He sobs in the cedar. and means in the
 pine,
 And shudders all over the aspen tree. Welcome are both their voices, And I know not which is best The laughter that slips from the oceans
 lips.
 Or the comfortles winds unrest, There's a pang in all rejoicing, A joy in the heart of pain. And the wind that saddens, the sea that
 gladdens
 Are singing the self-same strain!

 have heard it objected against those thrushes, whose extreme commences renders them less highly esteemed than they would otherwise be, that they find their voices too early in the morning. But am not prepared to second the criticism. They are not often at their maths, I think, until the eastern sky begins to flush, and it is not quite cer- tain to my mind that they are wrong in assuming that daylight makes daytime. I have questioned before now whether our own custom of sitting up for five or six hours after sunset, and then lying abed two or three hours after sunrise, may not have come down to us from times when there were still people in the world who loved darkness rather tha, light because their deeds were evil: and whether, after all. in this as in some other respects, we might not wisely take pattern from the fowls of the air

Pave Avenue F

U0Q UsgA1AVo@OSA SSA44SSS9 WHILE the property owners w along Avenue F are debating whether the avenue shall be paved from Eighteenth street to Elmwood cemetery, the city commission should not lose sight of the interests of the general public.
 A we'll paved street to the cemetery is a public matter which affects thou sands of citizens whose loved ones rest in the cemetery.
 We'll paved streets are an asset to any community and The Age-Herald has always believed that the city can- not have too many of them. The city commission will make no mistake in ordering this through route from Eighteenth street improved westward. It will add enormously to what is now only partially developed section of the city.

 aded by turns as lawyer, preacher, healer, quack doctor Wall street pro motor and confidence man. His greatest haul was made when he persuaded the widow of Theodore Hagaman, a wealthy New Yorker to invest more than s1 ,000,- 900 in one of his mining schemes At one time he posed as philanthropist with new process for making artificial diamonds. On one occasion he jumped a bail bond of s23 900, and on another one of $2O,00O. He was released from the peni- tentiary on Blackwelrs Island in Decem- ,ber 1914, after serving term fog swindling, and had since been living quietly in a New Jersey city. Unfortu- nately, the newspaper reports of his death fail 10 state whether he died rich, or whether his i'll gotten gains had taken their flfght-the very point in regard to which moralists would be chiefly inter- ested.

Made Big Success Here

"I see my friend R. s. Warner has retired from business" said $. E. Thompson, and I want to say that Bir- mingham has had no cleaner, fairer business man within her bounds. In his quiet unassuming way he has made a wonderful success of his life. He was among my first acquaintances away back in the sos. We each had a store down on Second avenue, near where Burger is now, and often stood under the shade trees that stood along the walk there at that time and dis cussed our chances in this new and crude city.
 We were mere boys, with nothing but hard work ahead. MT. Warner pros- pered from the first He married and built a home. He was devoted to his family, his church and his business in the order named. His retirement, after 35 years work, was accomplished after building up a wonderfully suc- cessful business"

youth. Not one of them had a groucE Not one of them asked what is the mat ter with Birmingham. To them it was the greatest town in the world with every opportunity for the young man. In looking them over and hearing them talk, thought how much better it would be if the newspapers would interview these young men on public questions rather than continually be printing in- terviews with the same old prominent citizens" who looked mostly to their own interests than to that of the com munity at large.
 These young fellows don't expect to sit or their launches and to derive their support from real estate speculation and the ingredients of Red Mountain. They want to work for what they get; and I venture the prediction that it won't be many moons before these young fellows will have she1ved some of the old or ganizations which do more talking than acting.
 The presidential election is but three weeks from next Tuesday. The present indications are that it will be the closest contest since Cleveland was first elected. The betting in New York is still in fa- vor of Hughes, but undoubtedly Pres ident Wilson has gained strength in the past few weeks, and has an excellent chance of success. Like in past years, the chances are that New York will be the pivotal state, and if Tammany does it's duty, Wilson will be elected
