Young Ladies Patriotic

Tn furthering our booth work in Jefferson county, and in Birmingham
 We especially urge our young women
 who are so unselfishly assisting in
 this branch of the W orS to remain in
 the booths" said Mrs, Raymond Jones, county chairman of the woman's divi-
 sion. We do not want the public to
 think that we are over-insistent. Our
 primary object in having booths is for the convenience of the public in collect ing the Baby Bonds, and to keep the duty of the people for thrift and patriot ism. before them.
 The young ladies who do the selling
 are able to give their time to the work in this way and it is a comfort to them
 as well as the older women to know that they are doing their bit in the war work.
 '.We have a committee of chaperons for the booth work who visit the little places for the sales constantly. and while we feel that no safeguard is nec- ! essary in the patriotic efforts of the day, our older ladies are ready at all times to cooperate with the giris in their efforts to keep the sales Of Thrift Stamps
 and Baby Bonds constantly going. "

Alabama Editors
 As Ever Welcome

7HHE Alabama Press association, U now holding it's annual meeting in Birmingham, is cordially greeted by citizens in general. While the at tendance is not as large as it usually is in normal times, many representa- tive editors are here, and the business sessions and the social features have been full of interest.
 Not few of the younger newspaper men are serving with the colors and more of them will soon be in training camps.
 The Alabama press as whole was never so prosperous as now and it's influence for good was never so far-reaching. The weeklies are inn proving all the while and their pros perity well reflects the prosperity of their communities.
 The press association has reason to feel at home in Birmingham. The latchstring is always out and the invi- tation to come again is always stand ing.

 Much valuable informat tion has been obtained in this way.
 There is, however, one poison gas
 used by the Germans which, so far, has defied analysis, notwithstanding it's mephitic odor. This is the poison gas of the German peace offensive. Some experts have ventured the opinion that it is kind of sneeze gas, because
 whenever the Germans attempt to
 spray the allies with it all the pacifists
 sneeze and say "Gesundheit." Although
 all poison gas shell of the peace of- fensive variety discharged at the west ern front since the Italian retreat last year have failed to explode, the "duds' have disclosed nothing to those who have examined them, because when . opened in the political laboratories of | the entente powers they have been found to be empty. Nor has their dis | tinguishing mark given clew to the kind of poison that should have been in them, because instead of green, yell low or blue they are painted with double cross.
 Perhaps one reason the "S" has been dropped from the plural of shell is because the poison of the German peace offensive always is in the same
