Those who entertained such doubts did not know me, and did not appreciate the circum- stances under which 1 entered the race From assurances 1 had received, and the canvass I had made, as well as close study of the situation, l am ab- ! solutely confident that I could have

 PUBLIC DEMANDING ACTION
 The suggestion of eliminating can | didates has been under advisement in

 In view of the fact that some friction

 race, that is. a desire to bring about
 change in our representation in Con- gress, and to put man there whole

| tHRW1[ TAR time economies and their MV effect upon theatricals has developed the policy of our theatre into the best shows possible for
 the least money was the terse and in- teresting statement that MT. Richard C.
 Arfowood. the new manager of Loew'
 Bijou, made when speaking of conditions in theatrical circles a few days ago. Mir Arrowood it may be mentioned, 1 is one of the most popular managers who has ever been at the Bijou; the
 war has carried from theatricals ranks many of the most capable young men in the country, some of whom are now
 in training camps over here, while others are fighting the Huns over there" and this applies to the mana gerial end of the game as well as the actors themselves.
 Following the policy of MT. Loew s theatres. a manager must be brought up in the profession. so to speak; that is, he must serve as assistant manager, learn ing all the business of the theatre be- fore he can become manager, and Mir. Arrowoods apprenticeship was begun In Atlanta and later in Birmingham, where he has made his residence for the past eight months.
 MT. Arrowood has as his assistant MT. Harry s. Ford, former member of The Age-Herald staff, a young man of fine ability and splendid character, and the two of them are running the Bijou on high <plane worthy of consideration from an appreciative public.

FARM WAGES GIVEN
BIG BOOST BY WAR

mere mas been considerable con-
troVersy over the justice or Injustice
oil the farmers claim in regard to the
increased cost of production dine IN
the raise in wages of farm labor. Data
compiled representing the actual
wages paid on great many farms ac-
curatelya typical of the average farm
wages Tor the entire state show inter
esting comparisons.
In 1902 the farmers of the state
paid an average of $685. for farm
labor by the month, with board. In
l9ll the wage with board was
$3.50; in 1913, 1920; in 1914,
$500; in 1915, $3.50; in 1916.
S36; in 1917, SAT; and in 1918, 500.
The average wage by the day during
harvest, with board, in 1902, was
$40; in 1911 the wage, with board,
was 1891; in 1913, $2.42; in 1914.
S2.29; in 1915, $2.35; in 1916,
$3.50; in 1917 SO; and in 1918, 81.
The average wage for the state, with
board, for labor on the farm other
than harvest, per day, in 1902, was
$l29. In 1911 it was $3.50; in 1913.
$167; in 1914, $3.50; in 1916,
S1.59; in 1916, $1.82; in 1917,
$2,4O; and in 1918, $3.15.
Comparable figures for farm wages
without board, which represent the
smaller percentages of farms hiring
labor, indicate practically the same
proportionate advances.
The above figures seem to substan-
tate the contention of the farmer
that wages on the average farm have
approximately doubled in the past six
or seven years. Also, taking into con-
sideration additional operating ex-
penses such as increased cost of ma
chinery etc. And the fact that cereal
crops show an abnormal decrease in
production in this state, one can cas-
lily realize the justice of the claim
OF a great many farmers that they
have been unable to operate at a
Profit and in many instances have
suffered loss during the past year.

MESSAGE RATES
FOR THE PACIFIC COAST

While other sections of the coun-
try have always had the benefit of a
reduced rate for short overnight
messages without restriction. the Pa
cific coast has never had the benefit
OF night message rates except to com
paratiyely nearby points. This has
now been corrected by Postmaster
General Burleson, who has ordered
that, effective January /, a universal
system of night messages at greatly
reduced rates shall obtain in all parts
of the country.
Manager Purdom of the local West
ern Union office advises that under
the new schedule of night message
rates the people of the Pacific coast
will have rate as low as so cents
for messages Of 10 words to New
York City and other places on the At
lantic seaboard, with an added charge
of only two cents per word for addi-
tional words. To Chicago, where the
night message rate has been 60 cents
and four cents for each additional
word, the new tariff is only As cents
plus two cents for additional words,
while corresponding reductions are
made throughout the system. To
nearby points the minimum rate is
reduced from % cents to 20 cents.
