Men Broke Training

''The University of Alabama football team which will go up against Georgia tomorrow will not be like the team that met defeat at the hands of Tulane" said B. l.. Noojin director of athletics of the university, who is at the Tutwiler. We fell down in that contest in New Orleans, but we hope to present a team here against the Crackers which will be equally as good as the one which de- feated Sewanee. We are not offering any excuses for the defeat we suffered at the hands of Tulane. Some of our men had broken training, and we could not put up a good fight. However. I think it reasonable to predict that it will be many day before any other football squad of the university breaks training. The athletic authorities took drastic action, and let all the students and members of the team know that in the future the slightest infraction of the training rules would result in the unconditional dismiss sal of the offending party

 Thanksgiving Day
 As An ImstiGuGi0m
 A LTHOUGH the American Thanks R giving festival had it's origin in New England, back in the time of the Pilgrim fathers. and is still celebrated in the land of the Puritans with greater zest than in any other section of the country, it has been for many years an honored institution in all parts of the United States. In 17S9 the Episcopal church formally recognized the civil governments au- thority to appoint such feast" and Congress recommended days of thanksgiving annually in the closing period of the revolution. General Washington twice proclaimed Thanks giving Days after the war; and be- ginning with 1877 the festival has been observed annually in the state of New York. Since 1863 the Presi- dents of the United States have all ways issued a proclamation appoint ing the last Thursday in November as Thanksgiving Day
 These proclamations have always been couched in religious terms, with an exhortation for the people to at tend their respective places of wor- ship and there offer prayers of thanksgiving to Almighty God for His manifold mercies during the year.
 In the early days of the Puritans when their congregations were small and their Orthodoxy" strong the man or woman who did not go to church on special occasions appointed for prayer and fasting or prayer and thanksgiving incurred severe censure from the constituted authority. Ab- sentees from services were regarded as little better than heathens.
 This is a great, big country now and church discipline has been greatly relaxed. But of the millions of church members a large proportion of them will be found in their pews tomorrow in accordance with the proclamations of President Wilson and the respective governors. And those who do not at tend church service will feel thank ful in their hearts. The spirit of charity and neighborliness will be all pervading, for thousands of those who are not numbered among the congre- gations, as well as those who are, will contribute something to the com fort and happiness of families that need help. Today and tomorrow all good people in Birmingham will re- member the afflicted.

EEawaiiam Princess
 Has Favor to Ask

1THE Princess Kawananakoa-
 4 spelling not guaranteed-ot Hawaii, wants Uncle Sam to name one of the nations new dreadnaughts after the land which has given us the hula hula, the ukelele and other things more worth while.
 It's pretty sentiment and it would be a graceful act for the government to comply with the princess wishes. Presumably there is no reason why dreadnaught shouldn't bear the name of Hawaii, or any other insular pos session of the United States, if public opinion favors it.
 The Hawaiians have given Uncle Sam little or no trouble and have sub- mitted with the best possible grace to the imposition of his mild and bene- ficent rule. They are perhaps the most popular of his wards, while their idyllic lives and the charm of their en- vironment have made Hawaii one of the most attractive spots on earth.
 The Hawaiians are entitled to have a battleship named after their coun- try. The Hon. Josephus Daniels may considerably enhance his popularity by lending an ear to the petition of the Princess Kawananakoa and giving his consent. The princess might be willing to break bottle of wine at the christening.

Farm Loam Bank
 Before Christmas

 would have been a boon to the coun- try, especially the south, at any time, but in view of the serious damage to the cotton belt by the excessive rain fall and floods of last summer and the ravages of the boil weevil as the cot ton crop was maturing, this federal institution will be of incalculable benefit this winter.
 Alabama suffered more, both from torrential rains and from the wind, perhaps, than any other state. Even with the decreased cotton acreage in the south and the lack of fertilizer, and consequently comparatively small crop, Alabama, with favorable weather conditions, would have made more than million bales As it is, this states production, judging from the last ginners' report, will hardly exceed 600,000 bales Crop diversifi- cation has helped, but great deal of corn as we'll as cotton was destroyed by the freshets, and therefore the farmers in many counties are in poor shape now; notwithstanding the high prices they are receiving for what they did save after the storms were past and the weevil had made havoc.
 The impoverished husbandman will find the farm loan bank Godsend. Also the well-to-do tiller of the soil who is expanding his activities by increasing live stock production will be greatly benefited by the farm bank. Cattle raising on an extensive Ascale requires large capital and Uncle Sam's rural credits institution will stand ready to provide it on easy tarms-low interest rate and long time.
 There will be twelve loan associa- tion districts distributed throughout the ecountry, with farm bank in each district. It is announced from Wash inRton that the board expects to be able to announce the several locations within the next twenty days.
 Birmingham is strong candidate for one of tkese banks. In the hear ings before the board in this section

Third Round.

London, Feb. 22-Bombardier
Wells, the man with the glass jaw,
and Dick Smith, also of England, had
fight last night, not in the trenches,
where Wells followers begged him to
perform, but in a padded ring. Strange
to relate Bomb scored knockout,
stopping Smith in the third round of
scheduled 20-round fight for the
heavyweight championship of Eng
land.
In the same ring, a few minutes
before the Wells victory, Pat O'keefe,
holder of the middle-weight title, sue
cessfully defended his crown by beat
ing Jim Sullivan of Ireland in a
20-round encounter. The bout went
the limit, O'Keefe winning on points.
Wells victory was we'll received.
| One of the largest crowds thfa has
attended a ring battle since the start

it was announced several weeks ago
that Wells had joined the colors and
would report to his regiment at once
