Air Traffic "Cop, Needed

What Birmingham needs just now in connection with the operation of the metropolitan police department is an air traffic patroTman, according to John H. Taylor. commissioner of public safety
 ''The other day in Gallatin, Tenn. an aviator nose-dived So close to the ground horse was driven into a wire fence,' Commissioner Taylor reported.
 "Over in Memphis monoplane crashed into an automobile and the police chief has asked for an air traf- fife officer.
 Here's the Dixie Flying corporation fixing to start out bunch of sky joy riders from Birmingham field. Who wants to be run down by some reck- less birdman or have the breath famed out of him with the wings of a bi- plane? We simply must have traffic regulations for our local airplanes?

Promoting Alabama
 Creamery Industry.

THE creamery industry is adding
 U greatly to the wealth of the south. Ten years ago there were many commercial creameries in Mississippi, but scarcely one in Alabama. There are now fifteen in this state.
 This important industry is being promoted in Alabama by the Bir- mingham Chamber of Commerce com mittee on agriculture and marketing and within the next five years the number of creameries should increase in Alabama to fifty.
 The committee is doing splendid work and it's attractive and educative page ad in special edition of The Age-Herald of Tuesday last will be read with interest and profit by every dairyman in Alabama. This statement is made:
 "It is estimated that Birmingham buys five thousand dollars worth of creamery butter a day in Kansas and Illinois and that money Ahever comes back to our trade territory. We would much more desire to distribute this
 amount of money among Alabama ldairymen. It is estimated that we heed thirty thousand gallons of sweet milk a day in Birmingham to fill the normal demand. We are able to buy only about five thousand gallons, and have to go to other states to buy a part of this amount"
 The committee is organized and ready to cooperate with business men and farmers in very practical way. Great results will surely follow. $ * x
 When Chicago's police department sug- gested that policemen in plain clothes pa trol the streets, States Attorney Hoyne replied, "The citizens would not know whether the policeman was a hold-up man or rot. and some policemen would take advantage of the change and turn rob bers themselves. This is not a mere guess, as some of them have already
 done this" An, well, maybe Chicago's police were not expecting any bouquets from States Attorney Hoyne. # * #

EXECUTION BY EFFIGY

the death penalty is retained in the penal code for treason and assassina- tion. It is prescribed that the guillo- tine shall be used and the sentence publicly executed.
 It seems probable that the objection able requirement. of public execution has had something to do with reducing the penalty to mere form. In France where the executions, by guillotine, are also public the tendency has long been to commute the sentence to life im- prisonment even in cases so gross as to create public demand for the ex- treme punishment. Throughout Europe, indeed, the death penalty is imposed much less frequently than in the United States. In several of the countries cap ital punishment has been abolished, and where it remains in the penal code the sentence. or it's execution, is avoided in large percentage of the cases

LUKE MLUKE SAYS

When they are engaged they spend too much time throwing the bull And when they are married they spend too much time throwing the hammer.
 A man thinks that if he keeps his chest protected in cold weather he will be healthy. But you can't get fool idea like that into girls head.
 Nobody has much use for a liar. But there isn't much sense in fattening an undertakers bank ,count by telling your wife the truth all the time.
 Some husbands are so handsome that you wonder how the dog catcher keeps from getting them mixed with the other dogs. And yet their wives be- lieve that their husbands do nothing but flirt when they are downtown. A woman may sweep around or dust around every now and then. But she doesn't mean business unless she has a rag tied around her head.
 Woman is an enigma. She will go out on cold day With nothing much on her legs and less on her chest But she will put a warm blanket on her woolly poodle so 1t ont catch cold
 The other day we overheard a woman who had a mustache scolding her hus- band because he needed shave.
 A man will sneak in through back alley and pay 50 cents for drink of rotten liquor in a dark corner of a stable and then go out on the street throw out his chest. and argue that this is free country
 There are many beautiful passages in the Scriptures. But. somehow or other, you can't think of any of them when you accidentally pound your thulbb with hammer.
 Many man wears an old hat when he could afford new one. But you never found a w6s1an who was built that way.

Thanksgiving Day
 and Its Observance

6NURKEY has from time immemo-
 0 rial been feature of Thanks giving Day. Without turkey the day would not seem real.
 In recent years football has marked the festivities of the day. During the football season every Saturday is football day, but Thanksgiving is football day par excellence, for it closes the season.
 In the early days of the republic Thanksgiving was strictly day of religious character-a day of worship and thanks to Almighty God for the harvests and divine mercies.
 It is of Puritan origin, as everyone knows, and in New England today it is celebrated with more zest than in any other part of the union. In that section it is the time of family reunions and is as widely observed in that respect as Christmas
 In 17S9 the Protestant Episcopal church formally recognized the gov ernment's authority to appoint a thanksgiving feast, and in 1888 the Roman Catholic church decided to honor a festival which had then long been nationally observed.
 Washington appointed thanksgiv- ling day in 1789 after the adoption of the constitution, and in 1795 for the general benefits of peace. Since 1868 the Presidents have issued Iproclamations appointing the last Thursday of November as Thanks giving.
 While football and other amuse- ments are now prominent, church service is still distinct part of the day we celebrate. President Wilson calls on the people to assemble in their respective places of worship to offer up thanks to the Father of Mercies for His manifold blessings during the closing year. Thousands
 will follow his injunction, and in every town and city large congrega- tions will gather. Without the reli-
 gious feature the object of Thanks giving would fail.

the ransom. The record of Jenkins, who formerly resided in Tennessee, has been carefully searched and noth- ing has been found that in any way reflects on his character. Further more, Jenkins, who operated a fac tory at Puebla, is presumably a per son of some means and it is un- thinkable that he would involve him self in any such plot with Mexican
 If Carranza is bent on seizing any pretext for bringing on war between the United States and Mexico, he will be accommodated, but on the other hand let us not underestimate the cost of cleaning up" Mexico. The job cannot be done in few months with a small army.

Drastic Prohibition
 the Mohammedan Ideal

M BRAHAM EFFENDI, Sheik-ul- GN Islam, the Grand Multi of Turkey, is pleased at the prospect of "bone-dry" America. Prohibition ists wrough nightly throughout the land and routed John Barleycorn by constitutional amendment without thought that Islam had pointed the way centuries ago, and they may be gratified to know that their work is viewed with approval by the spiritual head of the Moslem church.
 Drink is the mother of all evil" says Abraham Effendiy q am de- lighted to observe that America is realizing Gods command as spoken to our Prophet" It was sobriety that made the Islamites empire builders, says Abraham Effendi. Contact with Europeans proved demoralizing, par ticularly in the cities, where follow CTS of the Prophet were guilty of serIus backsliding and acquired bad h<5;ts. The situation is better in the rural districts, and the women do not drink. Now an effort is being made  by pious Moslems to drive out the drink evil.
 The next time Alabama's distin- guished prohibitionist, the Hon. L. 'sBreck" Musgrove, goes pussyfooting abroad to see about making the world "bone dry" he should by all means confer with Abraham Effendi, who can be found in Constantinople. They seem to have much in common.

American Patience Taxed
 Once More to Breaking Point

THE relations of the American
 < government with the Mexican government have been none too friendly since the days of Porfirio Diaz, whose iron hand maintained or der and stability below the border. The barbarous treatment of William o. Jenkins, American consular agent at Puebla, may prove the climax of long series of outrages committed against American citizens.
 Had Jenkins been left at liberty after his payment of $150,000 ran- som to alleged bandits, the affair would not have been more serious, perhaps, than previous kidnapings, but the Carranza government sees fit to charge him with collision and keeps him imprisoned, despite the protests of the American government, which has probably never used less ceremony with Mexico.
 And the result? The expected apologies and explanations are not forthcoming, although there are ru- mors that they may soon reach Washington. Jenkins, representa- tive of the American government, his health already impaired because of the experiences he has undergone, re- mains in custody while Carranza ap- parently defies the wrath of the United States.
 This latest crisis may pass, as others have done, but what makes the att;tude of the Carranza government particularly obnoxious, as well as in- defensible, to the American people, is the charge that Jenkins connived with Iii Mexican kidnapers to share in

Tt isn't generally known that the genial field marshal of the allied armies, J. Frank Rushton, at one time dabbled with the types, and w. J. Rushton, his father, was newspaper publisher at one stage of his career. 50 it isn't surpris- ing that the field marshaps son has gone in for journalism in his college days.
 "The Ri'ngtum Phi is college paper that has been published for 23 years by the students and for the students of Washington and Lee and Editor Rushton is upholding it's traditions. It is an eight-page newspaper, full of news-and ads"

Explain Poll Tax Exemption

Soldiers who wsere not qualified voters when they went to war will not be affected by the proposed constitu- tional amendment to be voted on De- cember 2s, according to Attorney Gen eral J, Q, Smith.
 "I do not construe this amendment as exempting soldiers from payment of poll taxes due prior to the date of their entry into the military service. the attorney general explained
 'I think all soldiers should be re- quired to pay their poll taxes up to the time they went to war and I think many of them are doing this now'
 The amendment provides for exemp- tion of poll tax payments until 1928 for the soldiers who were qualified voters al the time they enlisted
