Expect Rush At Tax office

'-The busy season of the tax col lector's office has just begun" stated James F. Hawkins. land expect be- ginning today, that there will be an awful rush by the taxpayers for two weeks The ad valorem tax becomes delinquent on January 1, and 10 days afterwards it devolves upon me to seize and sell at public auction the personal property of those who have not paid their taxes. This fact. I think. will cause great number to come in to the office to settle up.
 Taxable returns are made only on property owned before October, this year.
 'The number of payments of ad valorem tax have been unusually large this year, although the amounts do not compare favorably with those of the preceding year. This will be off set, however. when the returns are re- ceived from the large corporations in the county, some of which have not paid so far this year. When the final check Is made, however. I expect the receipts will go far over those of 1918"

THE SOPHISTICATED VAGABON1

They must wande on if we are to believe them pictur esque, these knights of the cross u who neither toll nor spin; and thI farther off they get the readier we ar to own their charm to the imagination
 Yet, were we under necessity O choosing between a simple hobo and sophisticated idler who affects tn manner of Walt whitman and the nor als of Lord Byron, without either thI brawn of the one or the chivalry o the other, we assuredly would take th frankly unwashed. For never with thi other type goes the fine careless rap ture" that makes the beginning of 1; true villon. The war served we'll ii freeing us for while at least iron what Falstaff calls -the cankers of | calm world and long peace.~ Bu now that these piping times bring bacl the tramps of low and high degree. le us pray that we be delivered at leas from them who assume the "coot garage" and write vers fibre.

The coroner,s Morgue

Have you ever seen the morgue of the coroner's officer" asked John R. T. Rives. as he unlocked the door of a side closet in his office in the court house. Well, first on the list Is a razor here that severed someone's con nection with this world. This, how ever, is not the ravorite form of weapon, for here are number of pis- tols of various sizes, descriptions and makes. All these have to be kept for an indefinite length of time, for it is not known when they will be called for as evidence in a trial
 'NThe greatest curiosity we have, though" stated Coroner Rives, 'fs this bottle of white lightning.' And 1t surely must be the stuff, for it was said that a man took one drink of it, then went and killed his wife, and a few moments later committed suicide There must be something pretty rank about this brand, and I am not afraid of anyone breaking in and stealing it, for don't believe they would get very far after taking a drink or two out of the bottle.
 "The most gruesome object which I have in this morgue is the head you see on the shelf. It sits there and seems to give a creepy feeling to the whole closet and sometimes think am going to put it down inaone of the dark corners of the closet. where won't meet it face to face every time I open the door,

Despite Investigations
 Cost of Living Scars

1E ROM time to time another great l victory" is won in reducing the high cost of living, but prices con- tinue to soar, Maybe beneficial re- suits will begin to show before long. Thus far the figures are not reas- suring.
 In the month of November, accord ing to statistics compiled by the bu- reau of labor, the cost of living in creased two per cent. In spite of the governments efforts to comply with appeals coming from all parts of the country that something be done, and done at once, twenty-two staple arti- cles, includes in the bureaus survey showed an average increase of two per cent and the average family's ek. penditures for these articles have in creased five per cent over those oi one year ago.
 With a great fanfare of trumpeta war was declared on profiteers. These gentry, to all intents and purposes go merrily on their way. Investiga. tions have been made everywhere, but they merely serve to convince the ultimate consumer that his complaints are justified. He hasn't made any mistake. The cost of living is high
 The packers have Surrendered. That is hailed as great step for ward. Congress is still considering legislation to meet the situation. | we will just possess our souls in pa tience, grit our teeth and hold out while longer, perhaps the promised relief will heave in sight. Yet, it's wearisome waiting.

From the Atlanta Journel.
 S0o RAvELY the Manchester Guar lTM dian informs us that in Eng G land the tramp is coming back. During the. war he disappeared, but Statistics are now published proving his return" Further, "He has always been with us. He is not wholly the result of shortcomings in our indus trial organization; often he is the out come of an ineradicable trait in human nature His vocation, or rather, his lack of one, is in many instances sim ply the expression of the wanderlust. He is often 6ne whose restless spirit would find settled spot and job in life impossibly irksome-"
 For those beloved vagabonds who have much of the impulse, though rarely a mite of the genius of Francois villon, our hearts can never turn in hospitable. The trouble is, however, that nearly all of them s(we might all most say the whole shining tribe) dwell either in the kingdom of the long ago or in some airy bohemia which work day mortals cannot tread.

LUKE M'LUKE SAYS

Some folks like oratory. But we never could understand how man could think and shout at the same time.
 We all know that our neighbors would get along much better man they do if they only knew as well as we do what is best for them x How did 1t happen that the farmers of the wartime prohibition law TOT got to make it felony for man 10 wear a red nose?
 They are gonna form an Ichthyo- phag club in this country. They never thought of forming It when the country was wet because the mem bers wouldn't be able to say where they were if they happened to get home after midnight.
 Man is a strange animal. We know a lot of fellows who voted dry who would walk 10 miles in zero weather to get shot in the arm right now. When a wife begins to sit around the house and wonder why she didn't marry a man who understands her, some lawyer is going to make lit tie jack.
 We do not know much about the clothing business. But we have an idea that the extra sized skirts for corn feds are made out of broadcloth. A man doesn't regret the passing of the good old days so much. But, oh. you good ofd nights! We would like to inform Jimmy Wilde that we have lot of fly weights | in this country who weigh around 200 pounds

 AND ELSEWHERE
Arc Anxious to Vote

@NhG [hhAiONH tAp FNNN
 "A greater amount of interest in po- litical affairs is being taken in the country districts than ever before" states M. E. Morris. election commis- sioner. This Is being evidenced every day in my tour of tho county precincts in registering qualified voters. On my last tour of the county preeints there were some places wheFe only two or three men would register. When ! went back this year there were 25 to 30 who signed registration affidavits.
 Politics, both local and national seem to be taking hold in these dis tricts and all of those who are quail flied are certain to take advantage of their franchise this year. I have al- ready registered over 1000 voters in the county and I still have three weeks left of my itinerary.
 'The interest is not lacking in the city, either. where before left I had registered almost 5000 men. I have had frequent inquiries as to when I will be back in Birmingham to reopen my office in the courthouse. will finish the tour of the county on Janu- ary 13, <1s20, when I will return at once to the courthouse, where I will open up an office on the bottom floor, the exact location of which will be announced later.
 For the benefit of those who are not already acquainted with the regu- lation in regard 10 registering this year. want to request those who have come from another county or state to bring with them when they register the receipts for the poll taxes that they paid in tke other places. This will facilitate registrations and will keep the party from making an un- necessary trip back to the registration office."

KINDLY PLACEBO

From the New York Evening Sun.
 Spaniard has just arrived in town, upon the very day when the prevail firmation, bearing healing on his wings, or at least in his mind. He is said to represent Spanish capital pres ently to be employed in operating a restaurant on Broadway upon prin- ciples which will afford kindly pal liative for the plague of thirst under which the American people goes more or less heavily, according to circum- stance.
 This apostle of the ingenious alter nate comes from his home in Madrid, where certain secrets of cookery are well understood. Instead of the heady wines of Spain, the senor will serve to his patrons various foods so sea- soned. heightened and stimulated with tabasco, paprika, ca@enne and other condiments of ardent quality that the palate of the diner will be diligently employed in savoring the multitudin- ous attacks upon it; thus a longing for beverage more cooling than any thing alcoholic will be desired earnest ly, for these foods are a consuming fire, all by themselves.s
 The difference between the foods favored by Teutonic keepers of eating houses and such Sapnish feasts as this senor proposes to spread is evident Every stimulant to thirst, by intensi- flying what is sometimes called the Cooling taste,' known to ingenuity was employed, with salt as its strong agent Of course, it made the con- sumer thirsty, hence the beer; for the Mosel wine was only an ornamental variety of the immodest and volumin- ous quenchers which such food de- handed. The deeper psychology of the Iberian peninsula holds knowledge of several stages in the satisfaction of the palate and the stolSing of the human furnace at the same time. It will be interesting to watch the graft ing of Spanish taste in cookery upon the American kitchen. In that labora- tory the New England boiled dinner still holds guard in certain commun- ities throughout this broad and tradi- tionally happy land. Maybe the Span ish cook will find he is more of a pioneer than he realizes
