Mrs. Mathis in Hospital

L received a card today from Mrs.
u. II. Mathis of Gadsden, Alabama S
leading woman farmer stating she was in
the hospital, and had been there for 10
days" said John c. Moses even during
her illness she had the welfare of the
suffering farmers at heart, and expressed
sympathy at their serious predcament
since the long rain and flood period in
Alabama. Mrs. Mathis states she is a
heavy loser, but has directed replanting
from her bedside. The lady states her
cotton fields were under eight or 10
feet of water. Tell the renters and
farmers by all means to get in their
winter gardens early as everything will
be high and scarce the coming fall, and
every seed planted means the tightening
of the feed bills p"

III YOU know who would remain
with their husbands if they suddenly
came into an independent income OF
$4,000 a year," asks Mrs. Kathleen
Norris, a writer, in an address recent
ly delivered to
"A Foolish Notion women. DO you
tn Entertain think there are
many who would
stay more than long enough to pack
q bag?"
1t may be sad news to the misguid-
ed females whom Mrs. Norris typl-
fies, but just about ninety-nine out OF
one hundred married women would not
leave their husbands if they were sud-
denly to become independent. Those
who did would be such good radiance
that the husband would be justified in
repairing to the nearest cabaret and
celebrating his luck.
Other remarks were made by the
speaker, who predicted that eventual
ly women will rule the world.'I say
let US keep marriage but let US con-
troll the men," There's a grain Of COM
fort, anyhow. The coolest Of women
agitators don't look with favor on the
idea of an Adamless Eden.
A WRITER In the Survey" gives
n an inside picture of how COM
munications are sometimes censored"
abroad that should prove comforting
to persons who dislike the idea of ut
ter strangers reading every line they
write.
The correspondent sat down one
night near one of the staff of censors
in London to
A Rapid Method of wait for an i'm
Censoring Copy portant b e
story to be ap-
proved. The censor in question was
evidently a retired army officer,
somewhat advanced in years and
weary of his arduous work. 1t was
about midnight. A stack Of papers lay
before him yet to be read. Thoughts of
home and bed evidently proved too
great temptation.
At any rate, so the correspondent
AYERS, after closing his eyes few mo-
ments and leaning his head on his
arms, he raised up and tackled his
work again. With sweep of his pencil
he crossed out the top sheet of manu-
script before him, passed the second,
crossed out the third, passed the
fourth and so on until he reached the
bottom of the pile.
However, this must have been an
exceptional case. Or else, the censors
have a good idea of what it is neces-
sary to read and what is harmless
matter. Precious little information
that must be kept secret for military
reasons gets past them.

Sunday Issue Praised

L read The Age-Herald every day, but
l read it more carefully on Sunday than
any other day. said Nathan Goldstein,
OF Everybody's department store 'Inas-
much as The Age-Herald is the only paper
in Birmingham which carries the Asso-
clated Press reports on Sunday, which
L have always found to be reliable, I
am especially careful to digest all thu
news.
1 have found that the Associated Press
reports are always accurate and seldom
II ever exaggerated. This news service
reaches out for news throughout the CIV
ilized world. In addition to this feature
of the Sunday Age-Herald, the Rotogra-
vure section is well worth the time of
any man to look over and be entertained.
The features of The e-Herald. and
the special stories of timely interest writ

are extremely interesting. 1t is well for
every person to inform themselves of the
events of the world each morning before
taking up the business grind of the day.

Memphis, severar.

1.-THE people of Memphis are very much
wrought up over the idea of the running
of the sewerage system which seems to be
inevitable on account of the receding
waters of the Mississippi river" said W.
S. johnson, division passenger agent of
the Frisco, who was in Birmingham yes
terday.
THE rise Of the river at Memphis dur
ing the recent floods was higher than
ever before in it's history. Every means
to insure the health of the people and at
the same time keep the sewerage system
intact is being made by the city authori-
ties. Memphis is as prosperous as usual
and everyone seems to be satisfied with
conditions All the railroads out of Mem
phis have resumed their regular sched-

Floods Harmful

IL the rain continues to keep I'D at
the present rate, another record for rain
fall Will be broken said j. N. Swanson.
This rainy weather is not too good for
the farmers in this vicinity. The floods
OF last month did enough damage to last
for sometime to come.
1t looks to me as if the south is far
ing worse at present than ever before.
The recent floods have destroyed thou
sands of dollars worth Of crops. Despite
these facts, the south is still fighting and
maintaining bold front.
Eventually this section of the country
is bound to come in for it's share of the
prosperity of the United States. In the
meanwhile we are working and waiting. -
