that they seldom see the light of day except Sundays.
 Such conditions go almost beyond human endurance, and the strongest and best physical beings cannot last long under such strains. We have found them in mines with faulty tops or roofs. and the records show con- clusively that they are maimed and crippled by falling rocks and terrible gas explosions which snuff out tle lives of scores almost in the twinklug of an eye.
 "At one of the mines we found five men who were apparently big, able bodied and strong men before they were caught in an explosion, and tie skin was almost totally burned from their bodies. They were lying on beds covered with oil cloth with secretions dripping from their burned bodies scarcely breathing, the most pitjful objects of humanity that human eyes could possibly behold.
 ''The report shows that it cannot be denied that 90 per cent of the crip- ples in the convict department com g from the mines as a result of falling rock, explosions and numerous other causes peculiar to a coal mine. It is shown that 80 per cent of the tuber- culosis patients in the entire convict department comes from the mines"
 Statements made by prisoners are embodied in the report. This takes up nearly five pages in quoting the names and the penalties given and where in flicted
 Tt should be born in mind that no convicts are sent to the mines unless they successfully pass a rigid medi- cal examination and are found physi- cally sound, and it is from these men that S0 ner cent of all the tu sis patients are drawn" quoting the report.

SALESMEN ID GET
 VACATIONS JULY 5
Local Wholesale Houses Join in Giving Men
 Same Period

All salesmen of practically every whole- sale grocery and produce concern in Bir- mingham will be given their vacation Thursday morning, July B. It will con- tinue until Monday, July A.
 This action has been decided upon by local wholesale grocers in accordance with the usual plan of allowing all their salesmen to take their vacation at the same time each summer, thus affording greater convenience to the salesmen, ths wholesale houses, and the retail mer- chants. The ruling applies to all sales men, both city and country.
 During the vacation period no business will be solicited by the salesmen but orders received by mail or telephone will be carried out, it has been announced by the Birmingham Wholesale Grocers' association, by half of the regular house crew who will be retained while the other half is taking it's vacation
 All merchants have been requested to place their orders in time for delivery by Thursday of this week.

that some day her worth would be

Yale Review: We must not seek to
run our children's minds as if they
were molten metal into prearranged
moulds; for, in the first place, if we
succeed (which is improbable), we
shall leave them rigid and inert, dead

silver currents; and, in the second, if
we do not, we shall rightly lose their
confidence, their respect, their love.
No; having brought them, winningly,
naturally, into the presence of their
friends-those true friends and aiders
Of all who would live in the spirit
we must bid them Godspeed and be
willing to stand aside. For the life of
the spirit takes many forms, works
through many temporal combinations.
and we must trust our children to find

their individutl hearts, the forms that
best satisfy them, please them best.
