Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday the Black Barons of Birmingham will en- gage the Atlanta Cubs in a three-game series with the Cubs. The Black Barons ship. These three games will probably be the final games which the Black Bar ons will play this season
 The locals have already played two series with the Cubs. The Balck Barons lost the first series, but took the second by winning three straight games. This last series will decide the championship of the south and there is strong chance for either team to win.

DEPUTY LANDS BBOOZE

Anniston, September 21.-(Specialo
 Deputy Sheriff Curry, who recently came
 to Anniston from Talladega and who has
 been employed by Sheriff Parker for
 about three weeks, pulled little surprise
 party Saturday afternoon when he fur
 nished money to Collier Butterworth to
 buy small quantity of whisky, the
 transaction landing the lad in the tolls of the law and bringing about threat ened prosecution against the deputy on
 the part of the prisoner and another lad
 who accompanied them on their booze hunting trip
 Without disclosing to the boys the fact that he was a deputy sheriff, Deputy Curry proposed that they take trip in car to be provided by him and make an effort to secure some much wanted booze. The Butterworth boy announced that he could probably scare up" lit tie of the desired fluid, and, accordins to his statement, drove from Oxford into the northern part of Talladega county, W here he succeeded in buying small quantity of the liquid lightning.
 The prisoner claimed that he delivered the whisky to Deputy Curry in another county and threatens to turn the law against the officer for transporting the booze. The father of the other lad who accompanied the officer and the alleged scout after the booze claimfs that the officer gave his son dr1nk out or the | fruit jar, and that he expects to prose- cute him for so doing. .. Deputy Curry had the car containing
 the two boys and the whisky driven to Anniston, and when he reached the courthouse notified his prisoner that he ! had 'sold whisky to the wrong man.
 and proceeded to lodge a regulation ! complaint against the prisoner. which will be aired before Judge Thomas w Coleman. IT,, in the county court mex,
 Friday.

NO STRIKE HERE

Anniston, September 21.-(Special)-A far official announcement was con- cerned in Anniston Saturday night this city would not be effected by tbe gen. eral strike of steel workers which IS scheduled to begin Monday morning, the plant of the Anniston Steel company be- ing the only local establishment liable to effected.
 The limited number of furnaces in op- eration at the local plant and the small number of steel workers proper employed here leaves Anniston virtually free from the effects of the strike order, and the local plant will probably continue it's present operation without interruption from the strike.
 Many of the departments at the Annis- ton Steel company plant are subsidiary to the manufacture of straight steel. and as every department is seemingly in op- eration with the workers satisfied with conditions the likelihood of a strike order relating to the local plant is slim.
 The Anniston plant employees upwards of 300 men in all of it's departments, and the further operation of the furnaces will probably be increased in the near future

PRATTVILLE

Prattville, July 4.-(Special.)-All indus tries here are running on full time now ard all dwelling houses are occupied. It is the first time all dwelling houses have been occupied since 1914. All business houses are occupied and three new store rooms have been constructed since April 1, and all of them have already been rented, and there is an active demand for business houses as well as dwell- ings. Prattville for the first time since the great war started begins to appear in it's natural and usual mood.
 The report as to the depredations of the boil weevi indicates there will be but lft- tie cotton made in this section in 1913. There are about as many weevils at this time as there were at the close of the season last year, thus showing a great increase in the number of the pests. There
 is a noticeable poor prospect for a full corn crop also for this year.
 The Presbyterian church is to be re- paired and remodeled soon, and that with other building going on in this town keeps all carpenters busy, and the de- mand for labor is greater than at any time during the past four years

C0T1o ROUGE or not to rouge, that is
 the question:

|
 the question.
 Several weeks ago a western school principal astonished the world by ruling rouge right off the faces of heE teachers. and then to make it fair she stopped the smoking of the men teachers.
 A discussion ragged for some time and was echoed in many of the papers. But there seems to be slight occasion for ex- citement after all, about an issue which now proves to be 2SOO years old.
 We are indebted to writer in the Phil adelphia Ledger for unearthing a passage from an ancient Greek text which relates how a young Athenian of good standing told Socrates the great philosopher, that he saw his wife one day with powder on her face to make her look white and rouge to make her look redder and high hceled shoes 10 make her look taller It seems that this ancient Athenian wheth- CT he be real or 9 fabrication of a re- porter's mind does not matter, took issue with his wife upon her honesty, claiming that it was just as wrong to try to de- ceive him about her looks as it would be for him to deceive her about his property.
 Perhaps, perhaps" one feels like am swering We haven't taken the trouble to hunt up the obscure lschomachos who is credited with the passage, but it must be admitted that the philosophy of the man is more Puritan than Greek. It IS hard to think of the Hellenists as being vastly concerned with the right and wrong on beauty.
 The more essential question for either Greek or modern would seem to be one of taste rather than honesty. If a wo- mans lips be pale does she acquire merit by admitting it? The only real argument against the use of rouge is that nature at it's worst is apt to be better than arti- flee at it's best.
 But if artifice can add a reckoning touch to faltering nature, only the canon: of taste would seem to limit that en deavor.

'sT0 Brood on Things EterndP'

17 N the torrid days of good old sum-
 mer time" one longs to inhale the S breath of the sea--to glimpse the azure outlines of the mountains-to get far away from the city's dust and grime!
 To either of these miracles of nature the thoughts turn 1ongingly during the heated season of the year when one has time to spare, and naturally so, for if the heart inclines to action, life, human companionship, it longs for the seas; if strengthening calm or spiritual solace be needed-then it is the noun tains toward which the spirit turns!
 "Dreams of mountains as in their
 sleep
 They brood on things eternaP-
 These lines inscribed upon the porch of the "Travelers Inn"-that offers rest and shelter to those visiting the ''Cirand Canyon" of Arizona-(which have recently seen transcribed on a post card from that section of the country which friends have kindly sent mel seem to express fully the effect such wonders of nature have upon the mind of man
 The heavy ocean symbolizes the rest 1essness of the human associations and enOClOnS-LnG SllIl SeT6ue JuOuAtdlilS wrap themselves in clouds and

 Goldsmith somewhere says of a mountain:
 Round its breast the rolling clouds
 are spread
 Eternal sunshine settles on its head"
 And again Shelly writes:
 "See the mountains kiss high hea-
 ven
 And the waves clasp one another"
 This unconsciously suggests perhaps that the mountains reach upward to divide love, while the waves are con- tent with human response to their emo- tional appeal. Tn the idea of the "eternal sunshine"
