Not only is this true, but in spite of trades and guilds there is such overlap ping that the spirit of give and take is getting to be the order of the day, even among the workers; and evea in the face of the strike and the conditions oyer the country and throughout the world be- lieve that we are on the eve of better understanding between employees and em- ployers, and that the public is more and more demanding fair play, and ready to visit its dspleasure on either side which refuses to play the game on the square.

 of warfare was but an adaptation of it.
 
 But this use of a blow was the reverse of the old scripture prediction of Isaiah, who, looking down the centuries, saw the coming of the time when they shall beat their swords into plowshares," as Mars for the time being was in the supremacy and Christ showed in the background; but we are told that "one day is with the Lord as a thousand years. and a thousand years as one day." and there fore we may yet hope that nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." Anyway, it's mighty comforting to know that at present the tank is on the wane and the tractor in the ascendency. 7 Thinking of these things, I made my way with crowd out to the Dixie irving field to see the demopstration of the belt driven machines which are revolutionizing farming, and standing on the side lines I Evans, the flying parson,' was getting away for his flight to Jackson, Miss. and thinking on these things, with the memory of the daring pilot in his machine and the work being done by the tractors, was conscious of the fact that "de world do move"
 It is wonderful to be alive in this day and generation. If I had been given the chance to live at any time since the birth of history with it's pages spread before me. would have chosen the present time. for it's a wonderful era, and the man with eyes to see and ears to hear ought never to be bored for something's doing all the day long and also at night. There is so much of interest transpiring that one almost begrudges the hours given over to sleep.

Speaking of how modern business is mixing up folks and things, just take for example the first man to greet me on entering the Lyric was my cousin, Sid Bowie, for years a distinguished congress- man, but who resigned to resume the practice of law here in Birmingham. It seemed that he was rooted in politics aId in the law, and yet evidently the Ford tractor had power to uproot him, for now he is as eloquent in talking about it's vir- tues as he once was in speaking in the halls of Congress or at the bar.

No one seems to look upon it as any thing out of the ordinary that the Ford dealer and the Oliver Flow Company took over the Lyric for morning session in order to educate the representatives CT these concerns in the value of the proper cultivation of the soil and in the right manner to market the tractors and the blows. The dealers in North Alabama flocked to see and hear, and with them came some of their friends.
