SCHOOL HONOR IMPORTANT

John c.. Mitchell, head of the high
school English department, and Lieu
tenant Colonel John f. Wall talked
to the boys gathered in the gymnas-
ium after the general assembly Thurs
day. The keynote of their addresses
was maintaining the honor of the in
stitution and both referred to the hon
or systems prevailing at the country's
great colleges. The difficult acoustic
properties of the gymnasium made
talking hard, but the meeting was a
success.
One of the most enjoyable as well
as instructive talks this year was Civ
en- by Miss Ollimay Mccormick in a
girls assembly Immediately following
the general assembly.
Her talk was along the line of social
and moral education, "The duty of
every girl is to be beautiful not only
in features, but in personality, man.
ners and actions" she said "Sim-
plicity is the keynote of real beauty"
The speaker emphasized the fact
that we are the makers of our own
destinies. She urged that the girls
form high ideals and live up to them
Miss McCormick's personality and
charming manners brought the talk
home to the girls.

A HERO WORSHIPER DEAD

Whitman was 40 years the elder, but the disparity of years meant nothing.
 To Traubel. Whitman was priest prophet and child, all at the same time Traubel would make any sacrifice of con. venience or of money that Whitman might rest on the rose leaves or hear the blast of the trumpet that Traubel felt to be his due.
 And through his worship he earned his reward. He was Whitman's biographer. But he was far more than that. He came to be the very center of the Whitman tradition The bond between him and Whitman was more generally recognized than any other similar tie anywhere. In this, the year of Whitmans centenary, Traubcl reached the height of his reaiiza- tion that Whitman was universally ac cepted as one of Americas ilniportais and then, full of years and vicarious hon ors, he died.
 r If you cannot be great, it is something to know greatness and to sacrifice your self to wor ship of it's spirit Cut on Traubels tombstone:
 'He was friend to Walt Whitman.

 It isn't limited to any one shop. The oldest and most eminently solid houses are sinners equally with the purveyors of lesser wares. A generation ago there would have been a riot in some of these establishments when the head of the house saw some of the books printed.
 Possibly there is real dearth of competent men. It is an exactng job and the average remuneration is not magnificent enough tc dazzle the young aspirant. It calls for the nearest ap- proximation to omniscience; it also de- mands good eyesight. much patience and a long suffering disposition.
 But one suspects that the poor re- suits in evidence are another lnaaifes- tation of our national habits of doing slipshod. hasty, careless work. If the reader doesn't resent it, the publisher doesn't care. It is os a piece with tho superficiality of our education. A small matter in itself, but it may be a symp- tom of a weakness that is not of good omen for the future. It really doesn't pay to be so careless even in smAA things. ~

From the Chicago Herald and Examiner
 The death of Horace Traubei is not likely to provoke wide comment. Trauee' himself was picturesque. but hardly remarkable figure But he was a typical hero worsh:per, and in his hero worship he was beautiful.
 In the seventeenth century an English man died, a man of reputation in affairs military and affairs literary. But never mind his name, for when he came to die he asked those who were to write his epitaph not to mind it. He asked that they put on his tombstone only the sem tence:
 Here lies friend of Sir Philip Sid- ney." p It was like that with Traubel. He was a friend of Walt Whitman's. He was no parasite. trying, like the pilot fish, to live off the pickings from leviathan. Traubel spent his time during Whitman's last days in trying all he could to make the gray poet comfortable and happy; and happiness to Whitman meant a belief that his public was more and more coming to understand him

A POET AMUCk

 Gabrielle D'Annunzio would better

From the Louisville Courier-Journa,.
 Gabrielle DAnnunzio would better serve his country by sticking to a shoemaker's last.
 Poets may be born. but they are not made to take the reins of govern roen- anG destiny in their own tapsr- fingered hands. When war comes their genus finds a useful field n stirring a patriotic martial spirit. but the hand that yields the poets pen is not the best hand to wield the gem erals sword or tho autocrat's sceptsr. D'Annunzios antics at Plume are well under stood by the Italian premier when he says. No worse service could be rendered to the cause we are de- feadinS and have defended"
 Under the circumstances D'Annun- aio will be fortunate if he escapes the ruardhoase and a trial for capital offense. It would be bad enough if he were to return to the sort of poetry in which hr reveled and groveled be- fe,e tic war. but it Is not likely that he will be permitted to continue his revess as a rebel and military dictator at Plume.

Birmingham's Steel Workers
 Are Not Being Mistreated

6T HE Birmingham district will not
 N be seriously affected, if there is a strike of steel workers Monday. While the Tennessee company is one of the most important of the Steel corporations subsidiaries, the num- Der of men who have joined the union here is, to say the least, problemati- cal. It is believed that only small percentage have thus far yielded to the solicitations of organizers.
 The claims made that employees of the Steel corporation are living in "serfdom" and are subjected to every imaginable form of brutality, are not borne out by facts. The whole ques- tion at issue is the open shop versus the closed shop. In the Birmingham district the Tennessee company's thousands of employees are well paid. The company's welfare work has at tracted attention throughout the Unit ed States. Experts have come from all parts of the country to study its model villages, where employees, white and black, live in attractive homes, with modern conveniences, with schools and playgrounds for their chil dren and all the advantages of com munity life.
 The Tennessee company has spent millions of dollars to provide better living conditions for its workers. A magnificent hospital at Fairfield is now being completed which alone cost more that one million dollars. This hos pital, with a staff of surgeons and nurses, is at the service of the com |pany's employees for. a nominal sum each month, about T5 cents, for each lemploye. Even this payment is not compulsory. It is hard to conceive |of any grievance workmen of this ably managed company could have, so far as their treatment is concerned, and there is no question of wages in the controversy between union labor and the Steel Corporation.

# x 9: Alabama Children's Aid
 Society a Great Charity

A LABBAMA has many worthy GA charities, but none should be more appealing to the hearts of the people than the Children's Aid society, which is thoroughly organized and fostered by prominent men and women for the love of their fellow creatures. Within@the past twenty-tw months, ISIS abandonc d i, homeless, neglected, cruelty treated children have been Isuccored and placed in pleasant homes. The scope of work is limited Only money is needed to develop the serv- ice to the fullest extent.
 The society has just issued an il- lustrated pamphlet setting forth many cases of child recovery, and no one can read it without having the heart touched and the purse strings loosened.
 Campaigns for money for this or that charity are made from time to time. But this Alabama Children's Aid society should never fail to re- ceive ready and cordial support. Contributions, varying from fifty cents to one hundred dollars have been made and the number should be great | ly increased this year. Among the Jefferson county donors are Morris Adler, George Gordon Crawford, J. II. Barr, Birmingham Coco-Cola Bottling company, c. w. Connors, J. w. Don nelly, Culpepper Exum, Glenn Gassom, wv. E. Henley, Robert Jemison, ST., Robert Jemison, Jr., Crawford John son, John L. kaul, T. J. Kidd, Otto
 Marx, Mrs. R. s. Munger, Erskine
 Ramsay P. G. Shock, J. P. Tillman,
 Oscar Wells, for one hundred dollars
 each Many contributions were for twenty five dollars and one for fifty dollars.
 President Crawford Johnson in his
 appeal for the society, says: During
 September, October, we ask for a Iyear's budget of thirty thousand dol liars from the good people of our 67 lccunties. A small sum, indeed, to in- west in the saving of hundreds of it
 tie ones.
 l If the contributions have not |reached large total, it is because the
 people have not understood the situa-
