 Huh said Andrew, coming out of brown study to affectionately pat a red blotch on his neck T was thinking about one time when I went to an exposition at Charleston. l had wandered around at an art exhibit till I was tired and sat dcwn on a seat near a small statue of boy with a splinter in his toe and a com ical expression of pain on his face" An drew reached down and scratched his ankle without apology.
 T watched the statue for a while and then I became amused watching the faces of the people they saw it. Each face would break into a smile as soon as the eyes lighted on the marble boy, and l sat and pondered at how much funnier the people were than the boy" He took out his handkerchief and gently dabbed his nose which was fiery red
 After little time happened to glance at a nearby seat where I noticed a merry-eyed old lady who was laughing also, and l smiled at her and said: Il see you also find these people Eunnier than the statue She laughed again and re- piled: Pardon me, but I was not watch ing the people, I was laughing at you!

 N OTHING quite so grand as great mountain is grand, but it does not serve. It has no life, no motion. It stays : where it is today always.
 Ships are the worlds winged messen- gers. A great freighter is the winged | Mercury of commerce; the minister pleni- potentiary carrying the good will of one nation to another. W Has Birmingham anything to do with ships?
 The following cargoes of Birmingham and Bessemer gas and water pipe have gone afar in ships since the middle of April: To the Pacific coast via Mobile and the Panama canal, $500 tons. To Tokio, Japan via port of Savannah, 5000 tons A second cargo of 4,0OO tons to the Pacific coast via Mobile and the Panama canal. A cargo of 1000 tons via port of Brunswick to Cuba. A cargo of 500 tons via Brunswick to Santos, Brazil
 A cargo of 1000 tons to Batavia, Island of Java via New Orleans. A third cargo, this time 5000 tons to Los Angeles, and San Francisco for Cali fornia distribution via Mobile and the Panama canal. A total of 10000 tons valued at S1,- 500,000 And these cargoes of Birmingham steel have gone far afield via Mobile in the bottoms of our own Alabama freighters built of our own steel: A cargo of 5000 tons to Rotterdam by the Chickasaw City.
 A cargo of 5000 tons to Japan by thd Birmingham City.
 A cargo of 5000 tons to Rotterdam by the Ensley City.
 A cargo of 5000 tons to Rotterdam by the Craster Hall A cargo of 5000 tons now loading for Japan and China in the Mobile City.
 A total of 3O,00O tons of Birmingham steel valued at about $2,500,000.

 Alabama does not wish ships, terminal facilities and properly equipped harbors for the dim future, but NOW The great highway to the state is one port, the Warrior river, does not need equip ment for the future, but NOW.
 Why does so much of the Birmingham districts export business go to Savannah and to Brunswick and to New Orleans?
 Because Mobile is not equipped. Why does so little of this business go down the Warrior at a saving of twenty per cent in the freight rate? Because the Warrior is not equipped.
 Do these underlying industries of the Birmingham district affect the citizens of Jefferson county? Imagine the furnaces, \ the steel mills and the pipe shops gone and | the coal mines shut down. No Sahara

DIR. LEFKOVITS.

Editorial Duluth News Tribune,
Nov. Is, 1o20.)
It is little to say that Duluth
greatly regrets losing as citi-
zen, DR.. Maurice Lefkovits, who
for Il years has been rabbi of
Temple Emmanuel. He not only
leaves here to go to Minneapolis,
but he leaves the Jewish ministry
in which he has had so much
prominence and been of such
service, to enter business as a
bank official. But he will not
give UP his interest in promoting
community welfare.
DR.. Lefkovits is man of cul-
ture and learning, a student of
books, of men, of philosophy and
current affairs. He has not con-
fined his work to the ministry, but
has given of his ability to civic in
terests and to civic welfare. AS
the head of middlewest district
for the past year, he has himself
raised nearly 100000 for Jew
ish relief in Europe. During his

Roumanian King Does Not OBJ
ject to Jewish Concert Leader.
Czernowitz g. c. B.)-Accord-
ing to report received here from
Bucharest, the Roumanian King
has no objection to a Jew direct
ing the leading orchestra of the
country. The report relates the
following incident. The King in
the company of leading statesmen
attended a concert of the Philhar-
monte Organization. In the
course of the concert the Liberal
leader Bann drew the Kings at
tention to the fact that the orches-
ira conductor was a Jew and that
in his estimation it was not fit that
a Jew should be playing the royal
hymn in the presence of his
majesty. To this the King is re-
ported to have replied that the
gift of the musical genius alone
was of account and that in so far
as he is concerned it made no diff
ference whether the genius was
a Roumanian or total foreigner.

HADASSAH SEWING CIRCLE
REVIEWS ACTIVITIES.

The Sewing Circle of the st. Paul
Chapter of Hadassah, which for the
past few years, has been producing
a large amount of garments, which
have been sent to Palestine, for the
use of the young children, has again
renewed it's activities. Already a
number of women have indicated
their intention of rendering service
through the sewing group. The Circle
is under the direction Of Mrs. Abe
Solomon and meets every Tuesday
morning at nine o'clock to twelve,
at the Vestry Rooms of the Temple
Aaron. A number of other workers
from among the Jewish women of
the city is still required, and the con-
tribution or loan Of an additional
sewing machine would also be great
ly appreciated. Sewing of garments
for the little children of Palestine is
again the special work of the group.

Government Clothes a Failure.

The STANDARD clothing" scheme, pro
claimed enthusiastically in government
circles in England some time ago.
seems definitely to have failed. Inc
idea of the paternal government was
that the cost of living would be re
dueed if clothes Of certain fabrics,
made in certain styles, were offered to
the hard pressed consumer at govern
ment controlled prices. If the govern
ment could outfit the army and navy
satisfactorily and cheaply, why should
not the civilian population be similarly
benefited2
1t was a plausible idea, but it worked
only so far as the production OF q very
respectable line of clothing was con
,cerned-with the government assuming
the risk of selling it. One day the
minister who had charge OF the matter
allowed it to be known that he had on
hand no fewer than 100000 standard
suits which nobody appeared to want
ScofTers suggested that there were
probably a million of the suits in stor-
age or gathering dust on the shop
shelves.
Retailers throughout the realm
Joined in testifying that they had
cheerfully taken the suits, displayed
them in their windows and done their
best to sell them. But the plain peo-
pie. as a rule, Stunned the government
brand. 1t followed, naturally, perhaps.
with immense quantities of cloth with
drawn from the market for these suits,
that the price Of all other garments
rose.
A revival of the scheme, with the
manufacturers instead of the govern
ment invited to take the risk OF mar
keting standard clothing, has recently
been talked about, but has apparently
ended in talk. Nobody but a bureau
crat of the most fanatical socialistic
views would think Of imposing on in
dustry a burden that has proved too
much for the government itself to
carry neutrality-suspicious. Jour
