GrinY Heroes

'I can recall no story that would be as interesting or appealing as that of a stoker on a battleship" said George B. Ward Just think of those grirny heroes. who sweat and grind 50 feet under the water, without the sight of anything ex- cept roaring fires. They never know when the enemy Is near and is ready to send torpedo through the sides of the ship. They never know, until the report of the explosion comes, when a mine has been hit by the venturing man of war.
 Much praise has been lavished upon the gunners. the captains and the ad- mirals. but little has ever come to the stokers and others who slave and grind out their very lines that the battleship may proceed with all dispatch upon it's hazardous course"

SOME FIGURES

From the Selma Journal.
 The Birmingham Age-Herald which has always opposed statewide prohibition and which has been besieged from many quarters of the country to furnish some unbiased and reliable facts concerning the effects of prohibition on the city and county, gave the figures to it's readers on Friday morning.
 The figures were for 1913 during the O'Neal high license regime, and during 1916, under prohibition. Without trying to give all of the long list of figures. it will be interesting to know that the de- crease in crime, arrests and convictions is about 25 per cent. a little more than that, in fact.
 The Age-Herald says the fact must be admitted that the decrease is nothing less than startling The figures were compiled by The sAge- Herald in answer to many requests and they were given strictly according to the records and without any bias one way or the other.
