LETTERS TO EDITOR
Answers Judge Kelton of Blount

Answers Judge KeltOn of BlOunt
To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
see the Hon. John F. Kelton, probate
judge of Blount county, is opposed to the
educational amendment. We are not
bit surprised, as the judge is always OPP
pose to the voice of the people and is
generally on the losing side on state
questions He does not voice the sent-
ments of the people of Blount county on
this, issue no more than he did on the
million-and- "a half dollar bond issue.
When he refers to the Buck Horn ridge
of Winston county as being worth less
than taxes paid on it, and then speaks
of the richness of Red mountain in JEFF
ferson, we draw the conclusion that he
is opposed to the children Of Jefferson
getting an education, because Winston
county is not as rich in mineral re-
sources. A great argument against ed
ucation.
According to his idea we must tear
down all our colleges, because the man
who works upon the section or at the
sawmill or mines cannot send his chill
dren there. The judge would mislead
the people on this important issue. He
infers that taxes will be raised if this
amendment carries When he knows it
is to give them the privilege of doing
so if they desire.
He reminds me of the legislature he
speaks of, afraid to trust the voice Of the
people on public questions, and I will say
the judge belongs to the majority fac
ton of the last legislature and from his
article in your paper of recent date
would prohibit the people from raising
their taxes to educate their children.
Yet he blames his wing of the demo-
cratic party for not doing so. Great is
the argument of the probate judge of
Blount county. Glad there are not many
who think as he does in good old
Blount. Respectfully.

Was in Pullman

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
In your Mondays issue you incor-
rectly reported the robbery that took
place at the Terminal station. AS a
matter of fact I was in the front part
of a Pullman car when I was over
powered by three men and my dia-
mond stud was forcibly removed from
my necktie. / Immediately chased two
of them into the subway leading to
the main entrance where l struggled
with them for several minutes. all the
while calling for help. / failed to get
any assistance and the robbers sue
ceeded in making their escape. How
ever, one of them left his hand grip
and overcoat behind.

The increase of 1915 over 1915 is 64,197
as compared with a loss registered by
1915 over 1914.
THE league, as whole, had a very
successful year." continued the chief ex-
ecutive. Mobile suffered heavy loss
but that was entirely due to the flood
which practically ruined the Gull City.
The heavy rains, which lasted contin-
uously for over a month, put big
crinp in the game. Had it not been for
this, 1 firmly believe that new at
tendance record for the season would
have easily been established.
There were several other minor handi-
caps in the way of making the season
the most successful in our history, but
we haven't got anything to kick about

terday by President Robert II. Baugh.
The figures were announced as "semi-of-

ATE ICE CREAM At
THE EXPENSE OF
PYTH|AN SISTER

The most toothsome and beautifully
sliced cake graced the table in Cas-
tie Hall, in East Intendencia street,
Wednesday night at an entertainment
by the Pythian Sisters, as one lady
said, to celebrate.
Bring up the cream, JIM" were
the orders given, and "Jim" went
downstairs.
But, alas, the cream was not there.
"But it is; it must be. I saw it
there when I came upstairs, and That
is where the delivery man said he
would leave it." sweetly called out a
feminine voice from the second floor.
Search as they would, no ice cream
could be found. Not even trace
yes, there was trace of it. The spot
where the freezer had reposed. But
that was all there was to 1.-THE wet
spot.
So the cake was eaten, ice water

DEEP WATER BAND
NOW WITHOUT HALL

Because of alleged abuse of the
privilege, the use of the Armory hall
has been denied the Deep Water City
Band by the board of county commits
sioners The complaint was made to
the board by Custodian T. @. McNair.
In making his statement to the
board Mr.. McNair said that on one
occasion the hinges of the door were
removed so that entrance to the build
ing could be obtained after permission
had been refused on the ground that
no written order, which is required
by the regulations of the board, had
been issued.
Another complaint was against the
attempt to lock the high school stu
dents in the building Friday night
while they were giving dance, the
band claiming that they had first
right to the place, and that it was
their practice night.

SEVERAL MATTERS
BEFORE INSPECTOR

For the past several days Steam
boat Inspectors Luderus and Bean,
from Mobile, have been in Pensacola
and have been probing a number of
matters over which their department
has jurisdiction. The sessions have
been in the custom house, and it is
understood, several breezy meetings
have been conducted, although the re-
suits are not made public until con-
illusions have been. reached.
Monday, a question affecting the
steamship Tarpon was probed. 1t was
understood that this queiition was the
outcome of a difference Which the cap
tain and one or two of his officers had
lately.
Part of Tuesday and practically ali
of yesterday, the inspectors engaged
in an investigation of recent collis-
ion in the harbor of the steam tug
Okaloosa and the army launch Lieut..
N. c. Neary, the latter vessel having
been considerably damaged.

THIS WOMAN SPENT

MRS. WILSON SAYS SHE HAD

"For two years I spent all my time

even that didn't make me we'll. It was
taking nearly every cent Of my hus-

drug bills-our drug bill alone
amounted to $14 or SIS a month, and
one doctor bill amounted to sos.

to help me, and I had about given up

BAYSHORE PHONE
SERVICE To RESUME

= Telephone service along the bay
shore is being resumed as fast as
possible. Many phones have been re-
circuited, and it is expected that it
will be only few days before the
entire circuit is turned in.
Practically all of the work is with
the cables, which, it is said, makes
the work very difficult and tedious,
Wet weather interferes with it as a
cable cannot be opened when it is
likely to be moistened.
The copper circuits to the federal
reservations have been connected for
the benefit of officers at the posts,
and the wireless plant in the city has
been discontinued.

Kidney Disorder
(BY DR.. V. NJ. PEIRCE)

'eThe most simple methods are us
ually the most effective ones when
treating any disorder of the human
system" The mere drinking a cup Of
hot water each morning, plenty of
pure water all day, and little Anuric
before every meal has been found the
most effective means of overcoming
kidney trouble. Death would occur if
the kidneys did not work day and
night in separating poisons and uric
acid from the blood.
The danger signals are backache,
depressions, aches and pains, heavi-
ness, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, chilliness, rheumatic twinges,
swollen joints or govt.
Since it is such a simple matter to
step into your favorite drug store and
obtain Anuric, as every druggist dis
penses it, anyone who earnestly de-
sires to regain health and new life
will waste no time in beginning this
treatment.-Adv.
