LUKE M,LuKE SAYS

 When aman is praying to be delivered from temptation, he often keeps one eye open so he can see which way she goes.
 We have known a lot of absent : ed men. But we never knew one who was so much that way that he could fol Nst his troubles. One good thing to remember is that while it is mighty hard to talk your self into job, it is mighty easy to talk yourself out of one. Why does a woman always leave her husbands pants hanging upside down when she gets through frisking the pockets?
 It has just about gotten to the poin, where girls begin putting on paint about the time they take off pinafores. Luke may have his faults. But he is never going to get any gray hairs from putting in and intignatng because his fellow man likes glass of beer or 1, l chew of tobacco or game of cards or cigarette.

Little Freakish Legislation
 Enacted at State Capital

TN all state legislatures, apparent B ly, there are men who have a mania for introducing foolish bills. These persons are most fittingly de- scribed by the term "solon." Used in this sense, the name of the great Athenian law giver has anything but q complimentary meaning. In fact, it is chock-full of sarcasm.
 Although this newspaper did not support some of the measures that were enacted into law by the Ala bama legislature, which is now draw ing near the end of it's labors. any fair-minded observer must acknowl- edge that it has not wasted much time on frivolous measures, but has worked hard for what it regarded as truly constructive programme. This is not to say, that floods of unim- portant bills were not introduced, some of them preposterous, but a majority of the legislators were in Montgomery for serious business and apparently have tried to transact it to the best of their ability.
 One of the proposed laws that did noc reflect public sentiment in Ala hana and was simply another attempt tt legislative intolerance and gag rule reform, was the motion picture cen. sorship bill which died parlamen- tary death, unwept save by few ex. tremists.

Draw Hasty Conclusions

According to Bob Jenison, Jr., it is interesting to note how people draw all sorts of hasty conclusions from every event that takes place. He was speak ing yesterday of the large purchase of real estate made by the Birmingham Realty company property which the Jemison Real Estate and Insurance company had been developing. We've had a number of calls today from peo- pie who seem to think that just be- cause we have sold one piece of pro- perty that we are going out of busi- ness and that we have nothing more to rent or sell" he said. This is not at all the case. We are still very much in the business and still have an all most unlimited amount of property to dispose of

From the New York World

From the New York World. 'N NE of the first essentials of a .O successful strike is the unani-
 nous, or practically unanimous, support of the men themselves.
 This element is lacking in the steel strike that began yesterday morning In spite of the conflicting claims made by
 it is evident that the men who walked out probably number less than a ma jority of the local employees of the indus try.
 The steel mills were operated in most districts in spite of the edict of Mir Fitz- patrick and MT. Foster, and they werc operated not by strikebreakers but by regular employees who refused to quit work because a committee had ordered them to quit work
 Reports indicate that few native born Americans struck and that most of those who went oui are foreigners. This is plausible. It is much easier to organize discontent among the foreign elements of the steel industry than among the American elements. It is easier to appeal to passion and to arouse false hopes In the dispatches from Pittsburg 1t is le- ported that some of the men were told that if they won the strike prohibition would come to an end and they would get F hours pay for eight hours work. This is readily believable by anybody who is familiar with the general character of the radical propaganda that has been under way in this country for the last 10 months.
 At the very outset it is apparent that there is little popular sympathy with the strike. The country has become impa- tient of strikes, and in this paprlar in stance it has been unable to find an ade- iquate grievance that justified precipi- tate action in seeking to close down one of the greatest industries in the world Although Judge Gary's peremptory re- fusal to enter into conference with the

COMMUNITY AFFAIR WAS BIG
SUCCESS SMALL LADS SING =
ING A FEATURE.

A very successful community sing
was held at the high school auditorium
Sunday afternoon, under the direction
of Mrs. Charles Jensen and Miss Mar
jorie Nelson, the latter acting as &C.
companist at the piano. The aud1tor-
ium was seated almost to capacity.
The program opened with the singing
of the Star Spangled Banner, followed
by song by second and third grade
children from the Central school, which
was very pleasing.
Raye Sugrue, lad Of about eight
eight years, in two pretty songs made
hit with the audience. His voice was
very clear and unlike most children, 1t
appeared perfectly natural for him to
appear before an audience. He was
called upon for an encore:
A. II. Vernon gave a brief talk on the
value Of community singing. He des'
cribed music as a method Of expression
and said that one who does not know
music or its effects has missed one OF
the greatest ways of expression.
The remainder of the afternoon was
spent singing patriotic and old favorlte
songs. In one, "When the Great Red
Dawn Is Shining" Mr.. Guggisberg OF
the high school faculty, sang the verse
The sing was concluded with the sing
ing Of America.
