But the greatest of all the Joneses-- the fighting Joneses-was John Paull
 He was dandy for sho. He went to sea in an old tub. fought a first-class British frigate and came back on her deck, his old tub gone to the bottom Up aloft in the rigging of heaven says John Paul Jones.
 Times may change, bvt the changeless sea
 Knows only the old, old way. stab in the dark may reach it's mark; But it never can win the day.
 The proudly free will rule the sea Till the Hun his shame atones;
 For the lads in blue are as stancb1y true
 As when I was John Paul Jones. Aye, aye, sir, The same old crew that sail in the Richard, the Essex and Old Ironsides. The same old crew that followed Hull and the Joneses, Decatur and Preble and Perryi They are in the North sea now. Presently they will be in the Baltic. Never doubt that the spirits of the hero dead gath cred on the immortal bridge in cloud land just outside of paradise look with delight down upon the scene "the rockets red glare and bombs burst ing in air" the starry banner flying at each masthead. You can almost hear them
 Says John Paul Jones to Jacob Jones
 On glory's star-strewn height Lift up your eyes--the flag still flies.
 They've only begun to fight.'

he will go to any trouble or expense to do It.
 But this time we are afraid he has put himself out for nothing. We know what dissenson in Germany amounts to because we know what it amounts to here. We suppose when MT. LaFol- lette was ranting around some hum- bug of the type of our periodical vis- itor was making the eyes of the Ger man people stick out with tales of our dissension. We suppose when Mir. Stone makes stump speech in the Senate it is interpreted in Berlin as evidence that Congress is against the war We can understand that MT Reeds attacks on MT. Hoover were featured in the German press under the headlines: Missouri Secedes Starving People of the West Rebel Against Food Dictatorship"
 We know of what little importance is anything that MT. LaFollette or Mir. Stone or MT. Reed say. We know that American opinion may be safely set down as being exactly opposite to their opinion, and it would be very foolish of us to be misled into believ- ing that the few voices we hear raised against the government in Germany get any more hearing there. We may find Dissension in Germany an enter taining gossip on occasion, but don't let's give him the impression that we are willing to take him to board.

CHIvALRY

Private Peat in the American Magazine.
 After the first gas attack at Ypres in April, 1915, I was knocked out for while and was in the clearing station at Mer- vile. One day when I was lying there on a stretcher, a poor miserable soldier came in. He was covered with mud and blood. He was minus his overcoat and his tunic was torn by shrapnel. He was soaked to the bone. for it was raining. and he was shivering with cold and pain. The nurse hurried to him and asked him what had become. of his overcoat.
 oh he said, his teeth chattering, my pal was killed back there, and he looked so cold. lying there in the rain took off my coat and put it over him. J
 If the men in the trenches. with their dirt and their filth, their swearing and fighting, can show such tenderness and unselfshness and sacrifice, are you here at horne going to fall below them in mo- bility Of spirit? I don't believe you are

A FAMILIAR VISITOR

From the Kansas City Times.
 ITlHAT delightful old fraud, Dis sension in Germany, has sent up his card again with i'm portant' penciled on it. We suppose we shall have to see him and listen to his latest information. although we can guess what it is and know very well it isn't so. He wants to tell us that a tremendous ruction has start ed over the action of the military party in renewing the Russian invasion That 1t is denounced as a breaking of faith with the anti-annexationists. That it has exposed the duplicity of the gov ernment to the world. That it threat ems to sever the alliance with Austria. That. positively, once and for all it ends the relations between the gov ernment and the Reichstag majority. Yes, yes, we know all about it. We're fed up on it. as the English say. We have entertained this old fraud at our fireside many's the time and been en- learned that there were no fats in
 Germany. He told us about the strikes
 and riots, the mutinies in the army
 and the plan of the Kaiser to abdicate

THE JONESES!

From the Louisville Courier Journal. |M HIVE la France? That is oital- w ian, which means: "we are
 with you, Johnny Crapeaur' But in German, it reads: "Git, you varmints, git!'--more than that-"if you don't git, we'll git you" We will send the last mother-hun's son of you down with McGinty "to the bottom of the sea- where Davy Jones awaits you. You can hear him singing now at the top of his voice Down to my ancient haven
 The gallant ships they come; Broken and bent with their spirits
 spent,
 Shattered and torn and dumb. And l curse the prowling, steel
 sheathed sharks That gloat on murdered bones, For the sea was clean of submarine
 When I was Davy Jones!
 But there are other members of the Jones family besides old Davy. They have been mainly fighters. There was Jacob, for example-never a sea-dog livelier when he got fairly started. Whilst Davy sings in his famous locker, Jacob muses thus: When I sailed forth in my sloop- To face the task assigned, An honest foe gave blow for blow, Which returned in kind. The, great green sea had chivalry
 Which the sinking Hun disowns; It was gun for gun, and the best man

Hardship of Being
 But IS Years Old

A N eighteen-year-old boy of Bir- |GN mingham has just returned from France, much against his wishes. His parents obtained his dis charge from General Pershing's army because he is under age.
 A manly-looking fellow, whose broad shoulders and six feet of muscle and brawn belle his youth, he mourns for the comrades he left behind. For weeks he heard the big guns roaring along the battle front. The spirit of the great war entered into him and he waited impatiently for the time to come when he would play his part in the struggle for world liberty. It was a glorious adventure to him, just as it is to thousands of other Ameri- can boys who are lover there' in France.
 He would have been able to hold his own against the boche. He had seen service on the Mexican border with the national guard and soldier ing was not a new experience to him. Just when his dream was about to 
 be realized the fateful order came from the war department, sending him home, not in disgrace, but crest fallen and sorely disappointed lad.
 He said wistfully, "T>hate to take |off this uniform" He was thinking of the friends he had left behind in France-the comrades who would "carry on" without him. Friendships are formed quickly among soldiers and sailors and while he expects to enter the service again, he will meet with new faces and will miss the old.
 This youngster typifies America. Who cannot understand and sympa- thize with the parents who obtained his discharge? Yet, who cannot share his own feeling of disappointment? Fancy settling down to the humdrum routine of civil life 5000 miles from the ''front," after having been there, steeled in the determination to stay there and "see it through" with the doleful prospect before him of the wars ending before he is old enough to enlist again.

* * * Prosperity on the Farm Now the Rule

N1EVER was the southern farmer, IN as rule, so prosperous as he is now; and having good taste of it he will keep right on being pros- porous.
 Enthusiasm pervades the agricul- tural sections of Alabama and the farmer is ready to respond to the ap- peals of the government for increased food production. His success last year S in crop diversification is causing him to plant more corn, potatoes and pea nuts and to raise more hogs and other live stock this year.
 Cotton will not be neglected, but the tendency is, as it should be, to keep the acreage down and raise more to the acre. It had been feared that the high price of cotton would cause an overproduction. But the farmer has not Host his head" He will con- tinue to grow food and feedstuff. That cannot be overdone. The fact is that no matter how much he raises, more will be needed, if the United States is to keep the allies we'll sup raied. What cotton he does raise will bring high record price.
 Weather conditions permitting, this will be Alabama's banner year in ag- riculture. The farmers optimism is of the sort that impels to greater things and with the cooperation of the agricultural experts and the Bir- mingham Food Preparedness and Marketing bureau he will find life on the farm all the better worth living.

You can't make the average man un- derstand why it is that the skirt worn by corn fed girl isn't always a full skirt.
 And what has become of the old fashioned blush that wasn't hand painted? When an automobile makes stop in country town you can tell whether the owner is farmer or city feller. If he is city feller he will always stop right in front of hitching post that is reserved for horses. Many girl would like to be a rich mans widow If she didn't first have to go through the process of being his wife.

New style of Photography


 "Rotogravure pictures in The Age-Her- aid have come to be one of the most 1 interesting features of modern journal ism and this paper carrying the most beautiful of Rotogravure Supplements makes distinct place for itself in the southern newspaper field" said M. H. ! Wilson of the Stephenson studio, who | furnishes many of the artistic photo- graphs used in The Age -Herald's Roto- gravure Section.
 T would like to call attention espe- cially to the two beautiful photographs on the front page of yesterdays Rotogra- vure Section, the one of Miss Pattie Rena Shepherd and the other of Miss Katherine Ledbetter, because they are done in the very latest photography, known as Mezzotype or. 'Diffused' type. This is an innovation in pbotograpny which has attracted attention all over the artistic world, and there is one studio out in California that makes a speciality of 1t, using no other but Meg zotype. It is exauisitely beautiful, be- cause or US SOIt ShaueS ana nuaHSes, It is detached from the conventional style of photography, and therefore much more artistic.
 "The Stephenson studio is specializing in this 'diffused type and is the only studio in this city which is doing this sort of work. The eastern studios have been making Mezzotype photographs for sometime and the Rotogravure sec tions of the big Metropolitan dailies are reproducing it, so I feel that With this issue of The Age -Herald's Rotogravure Section with the first of the Mezzo- type photographs shown, Birmingham is right in line with the most up-to-date newspapers The work is very difficult to do, as it requires the utmost artistry and attention to detail, but it is so beau tiful when it is finished that nothing else compares with it in quality and workmanship

Extra Act at Loew,s

The audience got something that wasn't on the bill on Friday night at Loew's Bijou," said R. c. Arrowwood. 'It was in the famous monkey act, where the big one was doing stunts breaking chains. He was in the midst of his trick when out walked the house cat and took a seat to watch him.
 ''The monkey cast his eyes at her and evidently a racial antagonism which had floated down the jungles for can- turies made him give her the danger signal, but, true to feline tactics, up went the tail of Thomas as he bowed his back and spit out his defy.
