Move a Million Dollars

The plan we outlined in last
weeks paper called for the purchase
of the old plant to use while we are
building real one; system that
will afford water for the whole town
and all the dwellings and lawns
thereof; a system that will cost per-
haps million dollars, but will be
worth it: system that would be
too big for the town, and on that
account it would make it to every
body's advantage to get new settlers
here and have new homes establish
ed to help us use the abundance of
water and to help pay off the bonds.
But to as many people as do not look
with favor on this plan we offer the
other alternative. The plan of simply
buying the little old system now in
use and pinching along with it as
long as possible, keeping all the va
cant lots about us vacant as long
as possible, full of weeds and BRAN
bles and free from settlers. The diff
ference in the two plans is wide,
and people ought to line up under
one banner or the other. All those
who do not approve of either plan

and do not want to have a municipal
plant at all, can vote against the
purchase, and court monopoly that
will probably give us a good service
at high price or poor service at
the same price.
Neighbors viii Hate Aou
When we speak of poor service
we mean that If you live. just beyond
the end of the pipe line you have to
appeal to the city council to demand
Of the water company that they ex-
tend their line to point within 500
feet of your place. Then you lay
your private pipe line out. to it and
make connections. All your neigh
bors up the line will be sorry you
connected. because you will be re-
ducing their chances to get water
under a reasonable pressure.
Construction or Destruction
That is what we call applying a
principle destructive, not construc-
tive. Have the city main so small
that every time new man connects
with it, every family on the line will
give him the bad eye and wish he
had not come or had not connected.
If the pipe were too large for pres
ent use, it would work the other way,
and every new family would receive
the glad welcome. Every young
couple that married and built a
dwelling would be received with the
glad smile. Every dweller along the
line who had not been using city
water would be congratulated when
he dug his little trench and made
water connections. All these things
would make more employment and
more business and more cheerfulness
and prosperity. That is applying the
constructive principle, and most
towns whose people are alive and
desire to remain SO, apply the con-
structive principle; If they are rich
they can afford to plan for some ex-
pense and good times; if they are
poor they need employment and pros
perity all the more. If they are
neither rich nor poor they have fear
of proverty and hopes of wealth and
independence and they vote for &C
tivity and prosperity.
Dust, Mud and Poverty
But we set out to tell our readers
how they might hold down expenses
and get by with the old water sys-
tenn and a few dozen wells. 1t can
be done and we know it because it
has been done. People have sat
around and held down expenses
when they might have been up and
doing and making money out of it.
Two years ago we were sprinkling
the streets in the business district to
keep down the dust. One year ago
the mud was a foot deep in the prin-
cipal streets, and everybody waited.
Now it is macadamized and every
body using them without sprinklingl
or bucking the deep mud. A lot of
people had employment while the

LAMAR COUNTY MAN
 OFFERS 1000 ACRES OF
 LAND FREE OF RENT
John A. Cobb of Vernon, Prominent Landowner, Ready to Help
 Increase Food Crops

John A. Cobb of Vernon, one of the leading landowners and business men of Lamar county, is ready to do his part to aid in averting the threatened food shortage. MT. Cobb states that he will give free of charge to anyone de- siring to cultivate it the use of 1000 acres of good land. It is expected that this offer will be accepted by many tenants and others who have no land of their own. The lands are scat tered throughout Lamar county an0 practically any kind of crop can be raised on them. MT Cobb will also assist worthy tenants in planting and marketing their crops in addition to giving them the use of the land.
 Il think the situation now confront Ing us and which threatens to becom 6 acute during the coming winter car be greatly alleviated if we act in time" said MT. Cobb, who was at the Morris hotel yesterday. "1n order to help out in this matter and to increase the cul- tlvation of land and encourage those who have lost their holdings, I have agreed to give the use of 1000 acres of my land without any rental for the coming year. I will also assist worthy people who really want to make food crops in raising and mar keting~ their products.
 Tlmpeople of the country, and es- peciaNN the south, are becominS. aroused and I think this will do much to increase the production of food Also. it will tend to keep down the reckless waste of which we have been guilty in the past"

nounced his programme. The letters addressed to the reserve banks and signed by Governor Harding, read as follows:
 ''ln view of the large issue of United States bonds which will be offered in the near future and which it is hoped will be subscribed for to great extent by investors large and small whose funds are now on deposit in banks, the board regards an investment by banks in United States treasury certificates of indebtedness having a short maturity and which are receivable in payment of sub scriptions to United States bonds as a highly desirable investment for them
 ''The Secretary of the Treasury has an- nounced his intention, in the financial opera tons in which the government is about to engage, to adjust receipts and disbursements in such a way that as far as possible money paid in will be prompt ly returned to the market and the fed eral reserve banks may be counted upon bye offering liberal terms of rediscount-
 ing to do their utmost in countera cting any effort of temporary dislocation of banking funds. The banks of the coun- try, by absorbing these certificates in advance of the issue of the war loans, will possess themselves of ready means with which to meet withdrawals made by depositors for the purpose of paying for bond subscriptions and they will thereby assist in an effective manner in paving the way for the successful flota- tion of our war loans.
 '.The board does not doubt that you will impress upon the banks in your dis trict both national and state. the im- portanee of this offer, and that you will enlist their hearty cooperation in this plan of preparing the field and prepar- ing themselves

C[ARK'S CRITICISMS
 OF BIENNIAL MUSIC
 ATTRACT ATTENTION
Writer of Musical America Wrote Articles on Con- certs for Age-Herald
 During Meetings

The criticisms of the musical pro- grammes of the biennial written exclu- siyely for The Age Herald by Kenneth s. Clark member of the editorial staff of Musical America, have attracted most favorable attention and comment among the federation delegates and visitors and the musical world in general. Through his ability as a composer and his exceptional knowledge and appreciation of music, MT. Clark was enabled to speak with au- thority and perfect understanding upon every phase of the different perform ances.
 Peculiar interest attaches in Birming- ham to his work from the fact that Mir. Clark is almost Birmingham man. During 1901 while Mir. Clark was a stu dent at Princeton, his parents, MT. and Mrs. F. L. Clark resided in this city, where MT Clark was engaged in the steel and iron business.
 After graduating at Princeton, Kenneth Clark removed to New York where he spent several years perfecting himself in the study of music and gained con siderable reputation as compser. Five
