CARE OF INSANE Is
 SERIOUS PROBLEM
 WITH SHORT HELP
Dr. Searcy Issues Statement That Harmless Patients Must Be Taken Home-Will Decline Ger
 tain Classes

The seriousness of wars effect on the states insane hospitals has prompted pr. Searcy to issue the following:
 Tuscaloosa, August 12.-The situation Of the Alabama insane hospitals is be- coming most serious, because of the diff ficulty in obtaining and retaining help. The army drafts have taken two-thirds of our men attendants, and some of our wcpen nurses. and has produced about the same scarcity on the outside, in the neighborhoods, where we get our nurses. We have substituted women on the mems wards of the institutions as far as it is practicable. It has come to such a pass, with prospects of becoming worse, be- cause of the new demands of the gov- ernment for more men, that it is inn possible to keep up the usual good serv- ice iL the institutions. Many of the new employees are young and unstable, and there is a general tendency to residences and dissatisfaction everywhere. Because Of the much more ready chances for women to obtarn employment in the country, it is going to be more and more difficult still, to secure women employees. The high cost of living and the low ap- propriation for our support, also, present embs; rrassing questions, that come up every day.
 Tor these reasons we shall have to urge that all harmless patients be taken to their homes, and we shall have to decline to receive this class into the hospital-and possibly, have to decline all. Respectfully, J. T. SEARCY, "As Superintendent of the Alabama In-
 sane Hospitals"

FOUR-MINUTE MEN
Judge Hugh Locke to Extend Work of
 Organization in State

Judge Hugh A. Locke, chairman of the local speakers of the four-minute men, has gone on a trip through Talladega, Coosa, Tallapoosa, Clay, Randolph ard Chambers counties, where he will extend and complete the work of organization of both the four-minute men and the state council of deefnse. Some of the towns in these counties have been slow in getting their organization on a working bas,s. and Judge Locke will doubtless be of great assistance to them.
 The four-minute men will observe rest week" next week, and the four-minute women will conduct the meetings in the stores There will be no speaking at the theatres, but the men will conduct the exercises at the various mills and plants in the district.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
What to Do With Kaiser

To the Editor of The Age-Herald It has already been decreed from Mr. Wilson in the White House to the little tow'-headed boy on the mountain side that the great American army will some day in the near future bring the Kaiser out of Germany at the end of a rope, heading procession, the like of which has never yet been seen.
 The minds of our people have become so imbued with this conclusion that | have often heard it discussed as to the best means of administering the proper punishment to the Kaiser for all the dev- iltry committed by him and his subjects to all nationalities that in anyway hin- dered his military from overcoming ev- erything For the Kaiser and Gott.' I heard the best suggestion from farmer some days ago out in front of a country store.
 "The most humane, yet aggravating, punishment that I can think of is that the Kaiser should be made turn an old fashioned grindstone, day in and day out, and that there should be an auto matic device that would hold one bay onct after another and that he should be compelled to grind into dust every bayonet that had been used in the slaughter of the defenseless women and children of Belgium, Bohemia, Poland and Serbia This grindstone should be placed out to on side of an old smoke house where, in winter, it is the coldest place on earth, while in the summer it is the extreme of all temperatures"
 Am quite sure that anyone when boy on the farm had to turn the old grind stone for the men to grind their old, dull axes, and for the farmer who wanted to sharpen the old scythe. will readily agree that no punishment can be administered fIot rrtn This would make the mornings and the evenings so long and lonesome to him. yet the burden of turning the stone would not be so heavy but what he wculr have all his time to think: "Or all sad words of thought or pen, the sadest of these, it might have been."

The re- markable increase in output which IS cer- tain to become greater each succeeding month is due in considerable part to the conversion of much wheat milling ma chinery into corn milling machinery.
