LIKE M,LUKE SAYS

We have a suspicion that after man has lived and died in modern flat his coffin will seem a roomy sort of place.
 It Is too bad that the men who have the biggest hearts have the smallest purses.
 A smart girl almays refuses to let man kiss her because she knows that he is going right ahead and do it any way.
 A woman can live/ with another woman without quarrel. And man can live with another man without quarrel But a man and woman can't live together without quarrel ing.
 No matter how pretty a girl may be she is seldom as pretty as she thinks men ought to think she is.
 Bad luck is always an accident. But good luck is what a man thinks he brought about through his intelligence and ability. Every time we hear a socialist an nouncing that the capitalists are rob ping the poor we wonder where th4 poor got all the coin they are robbed of.
 Any old time fat man pulls up his chair and tucks his napkin around his neck like bib the betting IS that he | didn't sit down at the table to discuss 1 politics or the weather. l You may have noticed that the woman who wears her clothes we'll | manages to wear pretty well herself. l A high -browed girl might as>well go away back and sit down when a

Provide Farms for
 Returning Soldiers

should lose no time in " acquiring cut-over lands and dividing them into small farms for returning soldiers.
 While the war was in progress Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior, submitted a practical plan to the President for providing every veteran who desired to own a home with forty acres on easy terms. The proposition was laid before Congress and an appropriation was made for paying for a survey of the situation. It was found that vast tracts of tilla- ble land were available. It was recom- mended that these lands be purchased by the government and offered to sol- diers at low price level and on easy terms of payment.
 At the time the work of prepara- tion was begun peace was not in sight. Military authorities were of the opin- ion then that the war would not end before the latter part of 1919. But Germany's defeat came suddenly, and while Secretary Lanes plan was yet in it's tentative stage.
 l Soldiers are returning from over- seas by tens of thousands and noth- ing has been done for them. The Sec retary of the Interior is eager to see his plan in operation and Congress $ should not have to be spurred up tc adopt the necessary legislation.
 Not every soldier would care to ac lquire farm, but large percentage would be quick to embrace the oppor ttunity. It is reasonable to assume that fully a half million veteran would be only too glad to becom. Itillers of the soil. At any rate, Sec lretary Lanes measure should receive a fair trial.

THE DOC HE LEFT BEHIND HIM

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger
 "A soldier must have pet said Brigadier General "Dicky" Lawrence of the British army. 'If it can't be child he must find a dog or a cat The Brit lsh S.. P. c. has started soldiers dog fund and the army council has ap- proved the plan What it does is to quar- antine the adopted animal for the re- quired six months and then return him to his master. It is easy to imagine the joyful reunion Volumes might be written on the dogs at the front and their fidel- ty to duty and to their masters.
 With a great lump in his throat Tom my faces the prospect of parting with his dog We can only guess at the ani- malls misery when his. master stoops down to pat him for the last time. Our men, national dog lovers, have adopted in the trenches and camps dogs adrlft. from their homes in Belgium and France. Often cruelty treated by the enemy, these dogs have gratefully responded to the kindness of our men, serving them with such devotion as only a dog knows For four long years many dog has followed the soldier master literally through fire and water, and proved of inestimable comfort to men longing for home and
 friends"
 | Some of these four-footed allies have ] been carrying messages since they were able to run. They have been trained to go from post to post without allowing themselves to be diverted. Some have swum the streams with messages and
 even ropes for the boats. Some have
 helped to identify the dead and wound-
 ed by bringing in articles of wearing ap- | parel from the bodies. More valuable | than the work of the animals has been their faithful comradeship. They have
 revived the dropping spirits of tired men. They have been reminders of home. They have been living links with the places where the landscapes were unspoiled
 It is true always that in war time or
 peace time the first care must be for dependent children and for women and
 1en. But such efforts for human kind
 woes of the dumb creation. Not by any
 means the least among these woes is the
 distress of dog who cannot understand 4 why the master who has been so kind to him should suddenly depart at last and
 leave him friendless and forsaken.

Will Prepare for
 Relief Campaign

A T the dinner at the Tutwiler this GA evening plans for organizing a campaign in Jefferson county for rais- ing funds for the relief of starving Christians in Bible lands will be dis cusged and agreed upon.~
 The drive will probably not extend over a week. It should be intensive and the contributions should be gen erous. Of the many philanthropic ap- peals growing out of the war few reach the heart so grippingly as this in behalf of the sorely afflicted Ar menians and Syrians.
 Chairman J. Mercer Barnett will have the active support of the "allied armies" and the four-minute men.

diers have made known, their desire to become farmers. Those who had had agricultural experience before they entered the army, naturally longed to Ego back to the land," and many who had never been farmers elected to take up husbandry.
 The Canadian Pacific worked out a scheme that is now being operated successfully When the first veterans returned from Flanders the company had already perfected it's ready made farm plan" Briefly, "the ready-made farm was to provide a place where the new settler could find home and means of earning living almost from date of entry" The farm was fur nished with house, barn and fencing, and in some instances blowing and lseeding were done for the new occu- pant in advance. No payment is re- quired of the soldier until the end of the third year of occupation.
 Canada has great stretches of un- occupied farm land and the British premier is advising English veterans to cross over and become Canadian Ihusbandmen.
 In the United States large part of the cut-over acreage is in the south. The soil is rich and climatic and farming conditions are ideal.
 Our returning soldiers would meet with hospitable welcome. Let Con-
 gress back Secretary Lane and speed up action.

* * < "BackWash of War; Felt in Birmingham

@TUDENTS of psychology will have g no difficulty in accounting for the crime wave sweeping over Bir- mingham. Although far removed from the scene of hostilities, we are suffering from the "backwash of war"
 The whole world, apparently is in a state of unrest. America is more stable and has been less influenced by events in Europe than any of the other belligerents, or neutral foreign countries, but this country is feeling the effects of cataclysm which threatened to undo civilization for centuries s-perhaps forever. There are not only mighty forces at work, which cannot be classed as criminal, but what may be termed the "froth" of the universal ferment appears on the surface in "crime waves"
 Most of the European cities are overrun by criminals. The situation in Paris was reported some days ago as causing alarm. Naturally, Ger many and Russia are in a worse plight than England, France and Italy, but there is not spot on the globe that is not feeling the after-effects of the war in one way or another.
 As invariably happens during and immediately following great wars, there are large numbers of juvenile offenders. Birmingham has probably never before had so many boys in jail for offenses ranging all the way from Borrowing an automobile to mur- der. Petty criminals are swarming in many American cities, Birmingham has her share of pickpockets and thugs. It will be months and years before the demoralization caused by the struggle in Europe has passed away.

With earnest cooperation on the part of the public large results may be ex- pected. The dinner will doubtless be well attended, and the greater the in- terest manifested in the relief cause the more readily will the spirit of service be braced and quickened and the end in view be accomplished.
 The campaign will be nation wide and Jefferson county should be counted upon to do it's full share of work in hand

WHAT sCHwAB DREAMED

From Forbes Magazine.
 The following anecdote was told by Charles M Schwab at the convention of the reconstruction congress of the United states Chamber of Commerce:
 DO you know" said) MT. Schwab, "the other night when l was down at Bethlehem. I had dream. I dreant that I ought to go to confession to tell some of the things I did twenty-odd years ago when a lot of corporations were formed. But in my dream l seemed to feel that ought not to go to confession unless I took MT. Morgan with me- But then remembered Mir Morgan was Protestant, while l was a Catholic and, in the dream, I couldn't figure out for long stime how 1 was going to bring Morgan to the confess sional.
 l "But then a happy thought struck me. I remembered that my parish priest. good Father Zahm. who is sit 1 ting here on the platform, had syni'
 nathv as broad as charity, and so asked him if I could bring Morgan to confers:on He thought it over for Q
 while and concluded that he would strain point and receive MT. Nor gan's confession with my own. A few | days later, as I dreamed the dream. we
 went to confession and we told Father
 Zahm-Mr Morgan and Ia lot of things that we had never told anybody | else before and we never told anybody
 else afteSward. Finally when We seemed to be all through with ouT stories, the good father said:
 "'You fellows wait here for little, | and I'll be back | "It seemed to me that he was gone | an unconsc cionable while, and I was getting nervous waited whiis longer, aNd then I said to MT. Mor- gan:

 melancholia but there were several cases of noisy If not an actually vio- lent character. The M. P. sergeant, for instance, was good for contin- uous harangue from dawn to dusk. They tell this story of soldier whu developed a mania for crawling around
