LUKE M'LUkE SAYS

You should worry about what people say. If you fail they will say that you are bone headed And if you succeed they will say that you are swelled- headed.
 The reason girl likes to have pimple where her lavalliere should be is because Bill Bryan hates to see his name in print.
 Never leave the house without kiss ing the wrinkles. on your old mothers face, boy. And don't forget to tell her that they are dimples.
 Any great man deserves a lot of credit for being able to convince other folks that he is great.
 We would all get on better if we were as ready to profit by our own mis- takes as we are to profit by the mis- takes of others.
 The trouble with the See Everything dresses is that a lot of the girls who show through haven't anything to show.
 Another lad who makes us weary is the fellow who is always telling you
 A widow usually supplies the de- marries again. But this is more than you can say for widowers.
 If you want man to think that you are real fellow, get up on his hobby with him and take a long ride.
 We all have fool idea that every body else's business is more attractive than our own.
 We may be wrong. But we'll bet that a girl believes that man who asks for kiss doesn't want one very badly.
 It is hard to make your wife believe 1t is better. for her to have sunshine in her bosom than have sunburst on it.
 Any wife can tell you that man has too many excuses and not enough req sons.
 We don't wonder that tan stockings are to be popular with the girls this summer, Men always did like yellow legged chickens

THE SPIRIT OF SACRIFICE

From the Wall Street Journal.
 David L. Ewing, assistant director of operations of the United States shipping board, is exhibiting to his friends q copy of g letter recently received by the American Red Cross at. San Francisco. The communication was accompanied by the gold tooth to which it refers, ana breathes the spirit of war sacrifice as exemplified in the west. The letter foi- lows:
 "Gents-Somebody told me that you was after old stufT like old jewelry and such got gold tooth that I can get along without, as I guess the Red Cross needs it more than me- I got two. so l loosened this one and broke it off. The dentist charged me 10 bucks for it, so l guess it will bring you a buck don't think he made more than nine on it. Of course it was new then, but just used it little better than two years.
 T miss it lot but the price of vic tuals is going up so I guess I won't need it so much. for mush and hambur- ger as I did when we was used to get ting stake far 1Sc a pound and achunk of liver threw in As I said, got an- other tooth might spare if the war gets worse. JAKE THOMPSON.

Oklahoma and Arkansas

The south as whole is prosperous at the present time and I can speak from salesrnan's experiences particularly about prosperity in Oklahoma and Ar kansas" said Hugh M. Brown of Br- mingham, well known as a shoe factory representative.
 Recently Oklahoma was added to my territory and I am more than pleased with my business in that state. After spending many weeks there became inn pressed with the marvellous agricultural resources; but Oklahoma is coming for ward rapidly as an oil and mining state. It is sure to rank before great while as one of the richest states of the union.
 q can remember when Arkansas was considered a poor state. It is prosperous now. In agriculture it is exceptionally progressive. It raises big corn crops, as well as big cotton crops, and it's rice in dustry has come to be very extensive and profitable. Both Oklahoma and Ar kansas will produce large food crops this year, but that is true of all the southern states"

E * # Red Cross Campaigns Splendid Progress

THE people of the United States 0 are giving generously to the Red Cross war fund. Never, in fact, has an appeal for money met with such whole-hearted response. The hundred million dollars sought for the fund will be largely overcontributed.
 In Birmingham contributions are being pledged in large amounts un- solicited, and Acting Field Marshal Bush was able to report yesterday total of nearly two hundred thousand dollars in sight. This city's quota was only one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, but that sum will be doubled Bessemer has already more than doubled it's quota.
 Our people are not only contributing freely, but they are manifesting glad disposition that serves as a direct inspiration to all workers in the Red Cross army.
 The habit of liberal giving to hu- mane causes develops and broadens with frequent exercise of noble inn pulses. Birmingham has cultivated the habit in high degree. And the oftener patriotic people are called upon to aid in the war, the reader they are to open their pursestrings.
 Certain it is that the Red Cross reaches more hearts today than ever before. It reaches all hearts of genu- inc Americans.

 \ in the matter of handling the transportation business of the country.
 MT. McAdoo, as director general of all the railroads, has "a stupendous burden on his shoulders.
 While he is assisted in the operation of the lines by able and experienced transportation officials, yet new md complex problems growing out of re- adjustments are constantly arising, requiring MT. McAdoo's personal at tention, and it is to his credit and the credit of the government that order is fast coming out of confusion; carp ing men, commonly called knockers, would say tout of chaos," perhaps,

Cordial Appreciation
 of Italy as an Ally

1HODAY marks the third anni-
 0 versary of Italy's entrance into the war on the side of the allies, and the event will be duly celebrated not only, by the Italian people at home but by the Italian societies in this country, whose members constitute a large and loyal element in our we'll ordered American citizenship. | A feature of the occasion will be a message from President Wilson, to be delivered at mass meeting of Ital- ians in Washington, and this will be followed by felicitations to the organ ized Italian bodies throughout the land.
 In view of the impending Austrian offensive against Italy, the Presi- dents words are sure to be at once pregnant and bracing and more than
 
 ordinarily significant.
 The Italian nation stands high in the worlds esteem. It has thorough ly disciplined army and the men who compose it are numbered among the bravest of the brave. If the Italian lines have appeared weak at times lit was because the army was short on munitions.
 The United States has at last been able to help Italy out. Its army is amply equipped now and every Italian soldier will be on his mettle in resist ing the Austrians. The allies surely have good reason to look forward with hope to the outcome of the bat tie presently to be fought on the Italian front.
 Many of the Italians who had De- come natural1zed Tn America re- turned to their native land and joined the colors soon after Italy entered the war. Since the United States became one of the allies, a little more than a year ago, thousands of men of Italian birth or Italian descent have found themselves in the United States army.
 This Italian anniversary being patriotic day, with fateful bearings, all Americans will be affected by the spirit of it and will extend un- feigned greetings to sunny Italy and the Italians in the United States whose hearts beat true in the cause of liberty against hateful Prussian autocracy.
