Costs More to Live
 Even in College Towns

NATURALLY the housing problem J N is being felt in college towns, just as it is nearly everywhere else in this grand and glorious, but some what unsettled country. Reports from many seats of learning indicate that the scramble to obtain rooms and board has been more noticeable than in previous years.
 Worse still, the high cost of living has not spared the college towns. There is talk of profiteering among the good ladies who provide accommo- dations for students. Even the fine art of using every available foot of space in a boarding house, or "ranch, '" as it is designated in Tuscaloosa, has not brought about relatively moderate prices. Where students live in dormi- tories, they are comparatively safe from profiteers in petticoats.
 But what would we have? Groceries cost just as much in a college town as they do everywhere else and if city boarding house keepers are now de- |manding twice as much, or thrice as much, as they did in the good old days when young man could get married and rear a family on $40 month llandladies in the shadow of academic halls are under an equal necessity o, charging all the traffic will stand.

LINCOLN AT MANCHESTER

erty, and that wry fate made him in finitely tender, infinitely patient. in finitely forgiving.
 With malice toward none, with charity for all"
 This was the beauteous flower that blossomed within his bosom. Fame called to him, and he answered her with a plying smile. Duty beckoned him, and he went calmly with her into maelstroms of fire and frenetic strifes, and there Fame followed him with naked feet and uncovered head.
 The sweet sincerity of the wood lands characterized his every act. The song of the breeze through the leaves of the forest followed him when he trod the marble pave of the Peoples House. He was great in his simplici- ty and that is one reason why he reaped such a plenteous harvest of love and hatred. But the hatred of the evil days is become transmitted into the gold of reverent understanding. We like to think of him standing wonder, looking out over that fair English city, the complication in enduring bronze of Americas noblest manhood and it's equally enduring ideals.

lies to influence sentiment in Ger
 many, and among the troops along the
 western front. Naturally, Germany
 became too warm for the prince 10 re- main there, and no one was more in- dignant than Von Ludendo-ff himself, who urged the government do some thing to keep these bitterly unpleas- ant truths from the German people.
 "The army was literally over whelmed by the enemy's propaganda writings" declares Won Ludendorff, and to this day the American people do not realize the extensive part that was played by American propaganda during the closing months of the war. Copies of President Wilson's speeches by hundreds of thousands were circu- lated in Germany. Pamphlets were shot at the Germans, it is said, out of guns, they were dropped by airmen and in many more ingenious ways were carried across the lines.
 Bolshevism and revolution had to do with the breaking down of Germany's spirit, but the greatest factor, apart from military defeat itself and economic pressure, was allied propaganda, and not the least effective was the work done by American agents, under the direction of George Creel.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
 m ARNARD'S statue of Lincoln, the lM gift of MT. and Mrs. Charles = P. Taft, of this city, was un- yelled at Manchester, England, Monday, It was a worthy gift. The fact that this presentment of Lincoln in enduring form is to become familiar to English eyes and English thought is more than gratifying to all Americans.
 The present sometimes is but an echo of a mighty past. It is to be doubted if any weilder of the nations scepter will ever approximate Lincoln's hold on the affections of the people So gentle, and yet so strong, he was at once the enigma and the oracle of his day. Shall we believe in reincarna- tion? Why not? In this man lived Buddha, Zarathustra, Aristotle, Socra- tes, Plato and the spirit of the Master. He came up from the multitude. As was the Master who lived in him, he was poor--so poor that all the gods fell to laughing when Fate lifted him from a log cabin hearth and said: Here is the child of Destinye In ob- scurity he sucked the bitterness of pow

Farmers Should Do
 Fall Flowing Early

II AST fall blowing in Alabama was @A much delayed. The rainy sea- son made it difficult to get normal start.
 The farmers should take no chances this fall. The first seasonable spell in October should be a general plow- ing time. And Alabama being a pro- gressive state, the tractor should be largely in evidence from now on.
 The economic value of the tractor has been fully demonstrated. Like the building of hard-surfaced roads, with first cost high, the economy in the end is no longer a matter for dis cussion. Every intelligent husband man now takes these economies as a matter of course. The only thing left to be done in respect to the tractor is to go ahead and put it in practice.
 Regarding this weeks crop reports, the American Steel and Wire com pany, which is making a speciality in gaining first-hand information, says: Practically all corn is out of frost danger, much of it in shock, and silo filling is the order of the day. The actual harvest of cotton is confirm ing the low yield estimate. Forage crops in general are good and live stock is doing well. Owing to dry arc hard soil conditions fall blowing is much delayed, and the acreage will be greatly lessened."

Birmingham As a High
 Glass Musical City

~ RAND opera does not make a M city musical, although it helps. The real musical city is one that has symphony concerts, oratorio, artist recitals and grand opera.
 For several years Atlanta depended upon the glamour of her week of opera, thinking that would suffice for the year. Outside of opera week music there was all but dead. Scores of great artists, including Paderewski, Ysaye, Hoffman, Kreisler and many symphonies were heard in Birming- ham and several other southern cities, but not in Atlanta.
 Our Georgia neighbor has at last walked up to the importance of pre- senting something more than the Metropolitan company in order to keep alive the true musical spirit and give music lovers something to look for wsrd to throughout the season. What Birmingham has long needed is an auditorium for opera and other large musical enterprises. And this we are to have, but it will be another year-perhaps a year and a half before we have it.
 Musical taste is we'll developed here and when the projected audito- rum is ready for occupancy Birming- ham can easily be made the musical center of the entire south.
 In the meanwhile the Music Study club has booked an attractive list of artist appearances for 1919-192o And it is hoped that at least one famous symphony orchestra will be secured as an attraction outside of the
 regular course.
 When the auditorium is built the concertgoers of Birmingham will de- mand a series of symphony appear |ances here every season. We should have five or six, and if arrangements
 are made early enough the Damrosch, lthe New York Philharmonic, the
 Chicago, the Minneapolis and the Gin |cinnati will be available. Some day
 Birmingham will have symphony
 orchestra, but even if we have an or lganization capable of interpreting
 the highest class of music, the :ele-
 brated virtuoso orchsstras will be |eagerly wanted.
 l Until the auditorium is under way
 of construction our musical folks car Ionly think and plan along the lines lproposed. But it is none too ssen te

German Morale Undermined
 By the Allies Propa1anda

THE instalment of General Luden-
 9 dorff's memoirs published in yesterdays Age-Herald contains a frank acknowledgement of the part propaganda played in defeating Ger many.
 During the war we heard so much about German propaganda and, for obvious reasons, so little about similar activities of the allies that German propaganda seemed to overshadow all others in importance and effective ness. Yet, the weapon with which Ger many accomplished a great deal and hoped to accomplish much more, had been cleverly turned against her, with the result that both in the army and among civilians at home the deadly virus of distrust and discontent took effect.
 Surely, we cannot doubt it's effect iveness any longer, after reading the querulous complaints of the quarter master general that propaganda was sapping the vitality of his soldiers just when he was depending on them to make final despairing offensive, since it was no longer possible to keep up the fighting spirit of his armies by waging defensive warfare.
 Prince Lichnowsky's famous revela- tions of the efforts he made, while German ambassador to London, with Sir Edward Grey to prevent an out break of hostilities, and his state nents that Berlin precipitated the war in spite of all attempts at con- ci]iation. were adroitly used by the al

 You ask who is to blame for the present
 state of unrest in the world?' said Sterling A. Wood. T can tell you more easily who is not; and say that Presi- dent Wilson is not, nor is the democratic party. The world is looking to the United States now for example to follow, and wish we could have had the United States Senate under bushel for the last six months and keep them hid until the treaty of peace is ratified. Then we might be an example to follow, as 1t is, we are just an example from which to turn away. While the Senate talks. Italy grabs with no one to say nay. She has grabbed Plume, place she did not even have the face to ask for as the price of joining the allies. Her example may soon be followed by others, while the world policemen argue. The lines are being broken and the game invaded. Let us all be thankful that there were no American soldiers or sailors at Plume when the taking took place.
