LAS VIRTUES

FL amor a Ia verdad es la prime
ra de las virtudes, ha dicho Socrates,
como que ella es madre de todas las
Gemas.
La verdad es ell cuerpo de Dios Y
la Luz su sombra.
La verdad vestida de Luz, es por
tanto Dios: Dios es ell primero de los
seres, fuera de e., NJ hay NADIA; lue-
20 Ia verdad es sin contradiction
la primera de las virtudes.
La segunda de las grandes virtu-
des es la Justicia que viene a ser la
verdad vestida con aspera tela, y Ia
tercera. emanada de las anteriores,
es la probidad. Esto para los hon-
bres.-Para las mujeres son tres las
esenciales virtudes, siendo Ia prime
ia honestidad con sus hermanas bon
dad V modestia, que nc pueden estar
jamaS solas.

Selma Business Men Set Fine Example to Remain der of State by Their
 Encouragement

Montgomery. August 2s.-(speciaL) Major Hartley 4. Moon, adjutant- gen eral. said Saturday he had received as- surance from Mobile that steps to or ganize two companies of infantry, for the national guard, will be taken dur ing the next week. During the past several days Major Moon has been in touch with military officers of the state, requesting them to continue their activities toward the immediate reor- ganization of the guard. Up to this time Mobile is said by Major Moon to have taken little interest in the con- templated guard.
 Recruiting for the infantry is now in progress at Bessemer, Camden and Jasper, the military department an- nounced Saturday. The Rotary club of Opelika has mapped out a plan for ac- ton. aho is assisting Col, Dallas E. Smith in the organization of Company L

Among the many musicians who have resided in Birmingham none has a wider circle of friends than Frederick Gunster, the well known and popular tenoi, who now makes his home in New York city
 MT. Gunster for several years, with his charming wife lived in Birmingham, and since they have taken up their residence in New York their friends have watched the musical career of Mir Gunster with sincere interest, and on every occasion when he has distinguished himself in church work, concert of oratorio that news has come back to hundreds of Bir- mingham friends and admirers aTd has been received with genuine cordie.ity.
 MT. and Mrs. Gunster are spending the summer at Forest Hills, Long Island, and in letters to friends here recently they speak of the delightful season which they are enjoying at this lovely place.
 Concerning one of MT Gunsters con- certs of the past season the New York Tribune said:
 Vocal power and sensuous beauty of timbre, exquisite taste crystal enuncia- tion, fine sense of line, andxwith un- usual intelligence. His singing of Gluck's o del mic dolce ardor' was a. lesson in the classic style.''

7S men and two officers were present at the inspection. Col. William P. Screws, Inspector Instructor, strongly recommended federal recognition of the company, but between the time of the issuance of the order for the inspection and the time the inspection was made, the military bureau had raised the re- quirements for minimum strength to 100 so the war department refused re- cognition of the company of IS men.
 Capt. Milton L. Wood the efficient company commander, immediately got busy and within three days wired the adjutant general that 25 additional enlistments had been secured The strength of the Selma company is now 103 men and recognition has been ac- corded by the war department. It is suggested that the example set by Selma should be an inspiration to other towns"

NOT AT ALL BAD REASONING

after all, success-fnancial sue
cess-is the best proof Of a books nsr-
it. All good books, from Robinson
Crusoe' down, have had phenomenal
success-made hundreds of thousands
of dollars.
I'VE all know this is true about
financial success. We are all like the
tramp who asked the old gentleman
for the price of a glass of beer.

man said. hut l will give you a little
