North Pole Controversy

''It begins to look as if the controversy between Admiral Peary and Dr. Cook as. to which of the two explorers really discovered the north pole will never be settled" said J. A. Randy yesterday.
 According to a recent interview with Dr. John w. Ruskin the famous nat rralist and photographer of animal life. Crocker land and other discoveries claim ed to have been made by Peary in the north polar regions do not exist, and the United States government has ordered changes made in the maps of that part of the world to conform to more accurate information obtained from explorers who ere unable to substantiate Peary' s claim.
 Since Peary has been hailed officially as the discoverer of the north pole, and has been promoted for his alleged achievement he has been so accepted by the general. public, but a great many people will always believe that Cook s story sounded as plausible as Peary's, while 1t is conceded that the former Brooklyn milk man and physician acted
 in much more sportsmanlike manner than his rival"

Possibly many of those in the ranks of the Sons of Confederate Veter- ans will then be in other ranks, serving the country.

 Washington has been the host of the grand army of the republic several times and has always done it's part well. It will do no less for the veterans of the confederacy. It has now under way preparation for the reception of these men, who are certain to conquer the capitals affections. Certain necessities are not to be met on all these occasions, expenses are to be met. A popular sub scrption must be raised and there should be no doubt as to the suffciency of the response to the invitation to give.

LUKE M,LUKE SAYS

Life, as a rule, consists of having to accept too much of what we don't want and too little of what we do.
 The reason why man has to carry a watch is because his wife has five fancy clocks in the house, no two of which tally as to the time.
 Isn't it remarkable how soundly you can sleep in the morning when 1t is time to get up?
 Never marry a living picture unless you are able to provide an assortment of expensive frames for her. . The dear old-fashioned woman who used to crawl into a feather bed during lightning storm has passed away. So has the feather bed that psed to afford her protection from lightning.
 Husbands wonder why wives are such eager bargain hunters. Maybe if hus- band had to buy $6 worth of things out of the g his wife gives him. he would know bargain when he saw one.
 When a man is fishing for compliments he never let's any big ones get away.
 A man marries to get home and then spends most of his time away from it.
 When you are trying to sit on man. don't be surprised if he acts like bent pin.
 A married woman may not know 1t. But she can always attract her husband s attention by keeping perfectly still. The trouble with love in cottage these days is that it is apt to grow cold when she discovers that there is no garage in connection with the cottage. Nothing makes wife madder than to discover that her husband has bought new suit that is the same color as his old suit.
 One thing we can't understand is why the girl who has legs about the size of No. 10 needles imagines that she has to wear her skirt knee-high just because a plump girl wears hers that way. And we know many husbandman who has nothing growing around his house.

Pack the Park

Birmingham will again win the open ing day attendance trophy provided the fans live up to their reputation" Blanks Everett, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, said yesterday. "We have the livest bunch of fans in this city of any in the south, and I don't believe either Atlanta, Memphis or New Orleans can get a larger crowd out than we can
 ''We will hold a luncheon at the Tut wiler hotel Tuesday at noon to discuss plans for the campaign. Our slogan Pack the Park" has already been adopted.
 Much of the success of the opening day campaign rests on the newspapers and if we receive the same help we were accorded last year by the press, believe we will carry the honors off again. Last year the attendance was 12,126. We want to increase this to at least 15,000 this year.
 Invitations for the luncheon are being mailed to many live fans in the city. The season opens on April 12. We are going to put all we can in the campaign, and if the old spirit comes to the top, we are sure to win.''

From the Washington Star.

From the Washington Star.
 N LITTLE more than two months
 TA\ hence Washington will be for the G S first time the scene of the an nual reunion of the veterans of the con- federacy; the men who over half cen tury ago fought under their own banner for a cause they believed to be just. The war ended 52 years ago this spring. The issue was settled then for all time, that the United States was and must always remain indivisible. The verdict was ac- cepted by the south with philosophy and patriotism, and the men who bore arms for the cause that was lost devoted them selves bravely to the task of recreating their land, restoring it's prosperity and making it a valuable part of the Amer ican' national system. How well they have succeeded in the half century is well known. The south is today a land of plenty, of progress and of unquestioned loyalty.
 No happier time could have been chosen for holding the first confederate re- union at the national capital Perhaps at the date of the assemblage this country

 A young man came down Fifth ave- nue yesterday afternoon in a rack-look- ing roadster. At his side and resting back on his shoulder was another young man with a bandage over his eyes. As the auto reached the intersection of Thirty-fourth street the driver looked around as if undecided where to go. The traffic policeman walked over. Looking for hospital " he asked. 'No, sir,' said the driver, T want to get him to some hotel. He is packed to the>hat with expensive intoxicants." How did he get hurt?" asked the policeman, step ping on the side of the car and regarding the passenger solicitously. ''He isn't hurt" explained the young man. Ines asleep.

From Answers, London.
 It was the night of nights. Isabella had said yes" Isabella's father had said ''yes," and Isabella's young man. was happy. So was Isabella.
 Minutes ticked away as they sat hand in hand, not caring for conversation, bliss fully content to sit and sit and sit in each others proximity. But suddenly Is- abela's young man grew restless. He be- gan to twitch and pull fearsome faces. His facial contortions got worse and worse, till at last Isabella got scared and cried:
 What is it, beloved? Tell your Isa- bella! Are you subject to fits?"
 "No no, of course not" said the young man soothingly. My eyeglasses are fall ing off and I don't want to leave go of your lovely little hands,

SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD From the Montgomery Advertiser.

SEN fN WONDEHS OF THE WOHLD From the Montgomery Advertiser.
 In looking over the list of Seven Won ders of the World one will find three diff ferent groups of seven wonders. In the first group are the seven wonders of the ancient world, as follows:
 Pyramids of Egypt, Pharos of Egypt, Hanging Garden of Babylon, Temple of Diana at Ephesus. Statue of Jupiter by Phidias, Mausoleum of Artemisia. and Colossus of Rhoades.
 In the second group are the seven won ders of the middle ages as follows Coli scum of Rome Catacombs of Alexandria, Great Wall of China. Stonehenge. Leaning Tower of Pisa, Porcelain Tower of Maxim, Mosque of St. Sophia in Constantinople.
 The seven new wonders of the world are recorded as follows: Wireless. tee- phone, aeroplane, radium antiseptics and antitoxins, spectrum analysis and K rays.
 Isn't it timely for us to agree upon 8 supplemental group of wonders? We think it is and accordingly nominate the following seven: American school his tories. Harold Bell Wright's books the sex note in literature and drama, young wom- en taking military training, feminisn, Penrose of Pennsylvania and the Com moner.

UphoId the President

INDEPENDENTS S4US 9 < OS9ANSS00S
 1T HE gallant Confederate Veterans
 l won't have to march down Pennsylvania avenue during the re- union in Washington next June, while thousands look on and applaud, to prove that America is united nation, indissoluble forever. When the cloud of war first loomed on the horizon they were fired with patriotism and many of these old heroes, seasoned in a war that was ended more than 50 years ago, have offered to fight for the United States government under the Stars and Stripes.
 Birmingham's veterans have not been lacking in patriotism, as shown by the resolution passed by Camp Wilcox, No. 1782, United Confederate Veterans. That they might mot ap- pear cowardly and 'contemptible' in the eyes of the world," the members of Camp Wilcox passed the following resolution, which will be sent to Pres ident Wilson:
 Resolved, That we hereby convey to President Wilson our unqualified indorsement of the policies that he has thus far pursued in dealing with these government perils that have en- veloped our country, andswe further pledge him our loyal encouragement and support in those that may con front him in the future, whether these be armed neutrality or other instru- mentalities' deemed necessary by him to protect American lives and com merce on the high seas, or to vindicate the honor of our nation from any and all sources whatsoever.
 The old men of this country will not be needed to bear arms in it's defense. There are millions of young men ready for the call, but no one doubts that if their services were needed, the Confederate Veterans who long since received their baptism of fire'' would once more face shot and shell and fight as bravely in defense of America united as they ever fought for the Lost Cause. k

Much Interest In
Special School Tax

Special School Tax
 THE educational amendment, rati-
 H fled last November, which au- thorized counties to levy a special school tax equal to mills, is proving to be fully as popular as it's sponsors anticipated
 Six counties have already voted in the 3-mill levy and in nine counties elections have been called for dates be- tween now and the latter part of May. Calhoun, which votes May 8, asks for only 2-mill tax, but the other coun- ties will vote for the maximum.
 At the rate elections are being held it is safe to assume that more than half the counties of the state will have voted by the end of the present year. The Alabama Educational association, which exerted a powerful influence in the campaign for the amendment that made better schools possible, can be counted on to work earnestly for the tax elections. The association holds its annual meeting in Montgomery next week. It will be in session three days and the discussions will be all the more heartening because of the fact that the voters of the various counties are taking the right view of the school tax question:.
 The six counties that have voted for the special tax rolled up large ma iorities and the nine counties soon to vote will do likewise. Marshall county is the only county that has
