''The Alabama Home''

These articles are written intermingling with business the scenes and actions of other days in the hope that they will serve as an encouragement to the many who like the young man speaking to Pla- to, said, "Oh! Plato, tell me of life's jour- ney: Is the way smooth and easy or is it rugged and difficult"
 Many years ago in dear old Baltimore town, was talking to the man who helped change the current of my life; he was an unusual lman-remarkable in many ways and the founder of the firm of my boy hood days. Poverty had made him frugal and industrious and he had not enough vision to get away from the habits of his early days; so all of his life he saved and saved and all of his life his wife spent and spent. Getting to the limit of his patience, he said one day, Robbie, you know my wife, she would buy penitentiary if she could.'
 I, like those who dwell a little in imagi- nations world and believe in the amelior- ation of mankind, was telling him of the good we were going to do and the happy homes we were going to create down here when he brought me down from stumbling over stars to this dull earth again with heavy thud by saying, "Oh Robbie, please remember that you are not going to run charity hospital" My dear old friend be- lieved in me to degree that gave me greater faith in myself and today the families of that old firm have invested S6O,OOO in "The Alabama Home"
 Money, as we know it now, is modern thing. Two hundred years ago in France it was so scarce that fat hen sold for one cent and big fat sheep for ten cents. 1t is now the magical wand that helps so much to brighten or darken every home. The difference in knowing how to make 1t a blessing or curse is the difference be- tween an Army and the Mob.
 The cause and conditions which lead to the rise and fall of fortunes have al- ways been of interest to us. l have seen the time when the forces of business seemed totally demoralized and like the rout of an army the bravest men threw their arms away and begged their feet to be their friend. have seen the time when all wished to buy. have seen the time when all wished to sell. have seen the time when there seemed to be corner in vacant lots and it was feared that they would all give out, and, have seen time when property was almost worthless and Isaw four-room cottage in good neigh borhood on North Highlands sell for S2OO and the owner seemed anxious to trade.
 We have had thirty years experience in the Birmingham District without loss to any investor or our securities ever sell ing under par. Truth is the Daughter of Time" These long years of work and industry have enabled us to perfect a financial organization that runs like a,

MOTOR. RAIDS ON THE FARMERS

MOTOR. RAIDS ON THE FARMERS
Up to the present time there has
been little, if any, complaint regard
ing the somewhat common practice Of
motorists in other states making raids
on the farm produce which lies within
easy reach from the main motor high
ways, chiefly in Massachusetts,. IL is
said that large amount of produce
is stolen each summer or fall be-
cause of the brazen raids made by
persons travelling by motor car. In
fact, the depredations have grown so
much in the past summer that a con
certed effort is to be made in the Mas
sachusetts legislature to punish most
severely those who engage in the prac-
tice, it being proposed to make them
liable to Imprisonment of five years
for a maximum and two years for a
minimum besides depriving them OF
the right to operate a motor vehicle
for five years, Sympathy goes with
the farmer in this case. The farmer
has gone to great expense and much
outlay of time and energy to bring
his products up to high state of cul-
tivation and he is entitled to as much
protection from robbers as is the mer-
chant, the banker or any other per
son of similar nature. His produce
on the ground, on tree or on vines is
no different than the goods on the
merchants counter or the money in
the bankers vault; and those who
steal vegetables, fruit and other things
from the farmer ought to get heavy
punishment. The punishment proposed
in Massachusetts, is none too severe
and the law ought to be enacted. Here
in Vermont it may be well to make
some special provision to prevent the
raids on farmers, and one of the most
effective measures would be to deprive
convicted persons of the right to OPP
crate motor vehicles for a consider
able period of time. Thus far the com
plants in Vermont have been confined
chiefly to the stealing Of potatoes dug,
bagged and left on the ground tenn
porarily; but it seems probable that
the depredations committed in Massa-
chusetts will be extended to Vermont
as the restraint begins to have its eff
feet on operations in Massachusetts,.
