Rainbop, Judge Feagin's Dog,
 FoLIows Master Beyond Veil
By WILLIAM THOMPSON

They called him Rainbow because they said that he was filled with the spirit that promised of some thing better. Yet after all, he was just common looking old cur dog, but one who possessed the love and devotion of every member of the police force during the old ~saIoon days" in Birmingbam, and it is said that he also possessed more real sense than some people.
 But he is dead now. and the dirt has been thrown over his IifeIess body. Rainbow, the One-time pet of the police department, is be- lieved to have died on the Southside last Wednesday.
 Rafnbow's dearest friend, and a man whom he loved with all the devotion of n real dog. was the late Judge N. B. Feagin, who died at n local iBfirmary last Sunday morn ing.
 The dog who had followed him around over the streets of the city for the past several years seemed to know more about the wishes of 0IDhOSk my other living creature.
 Judge Feagin died early last Sum day morning. Rainbow is believed to have died late Wednesday night, just three days after the death of the man whom he loved more than his own life.
 Different aged members of the police department can tell enough police history in which Rainbow took prominent part to fill half n dozen large size books.
 Some of the stories may seem impossible, that is if any of them are told to you.
 But it is a known fact that Rnin- bow led in many police raid where bullets rained, and the nerve of the officer of the law was put to the strongest test.
 But Rainbow did not stand back and bark. The cuts and ma rks on bis body will show that when he got il chance he was ahead of the cauptain with his party of men who were raiding the house.
 In these days, as every old resi- dent in Birmingham will remem- Der quite well, gambling dens and houses of immoral character and saloons, were among the biggest things about the city.
 Policemen in n raid guarded their axes and took almost much care Of them as they did their firearms. For, nearly always before the raid was completed, several doors would have to be battered down, or maybe a hole would have to be punched through a brick wall.
 When n raid was being carried out and a heavy panneIed door was being chopped down, Rainbow was always up as close to the front as he could get, and the minute the

bers of the National Retail Dry Goods Association that standardization will mark one of the greatest forward steps in the history of retailing and, needless to say, 1 am delighted to have a part in this movement as it has been a very dear one to my heart and one to which 1 have devoted a great many years of study and practice.
 But if any congratulations are to be offered. they should be addressed to Loveman, Joseph & Loeb at large, or, perhaps, more particularly to J. H. Love- man, it's operating vice president, ant also chairman of the Alabama Mer- chants Association, who. in his desire to be of service to the craft, has made it possible for me to accept the place."

 Need Ample Room to Play
By pr. Dorothy R. Mendenhall, U. s. Children'S Bureau.

Play may be just fun" for the child, but it is serious business for the par ent. Children need play as much az; food and shelter. The mother is lucky who has a clean. safe and roomy backyard, or a nearby part, especially if it has a sandpile. When the children have outgrown the back yard, they need a properly supervised athletic field or playground, and par ents should sec that their town has one for it's boys and girls.
 Place for Indoor Romp
 The old-fashioned attic and tool shed have gone, but children still love to have an indoor Iomp, or keep store" or give d show" Even in the small city house there should be some place not too fine where the child may play undisturbed, even if it is only a corner of the living room

Now she is the happy bride of Captain ..
Fitzpatrick Lewis, who made record as gal

worked for an insurance company, and was
just a modest young business man struggling
for living in the great city of London.
He is good sportsman and athlete, dash
ing rider a clever billiard player an accomp-
lished skater and an expert in many lines. lie
is also an amateur actor and singer. These are
all useful accomplishments in winning woman
and valuable in many ways.
When the war broke out his athletic abilities
helped him to obtain commission in the AIR
service where he quickly progressed. He shot
down five German planes took part in sue
cessful squadron engagement and performed
several other feats.
AT last his end came, as to most other AVA
tors. Flying out al dawn over the German lines
he was attacked by three German machines
which had hidden themselves behind fog
bank. They shot the Britisher's machine full
of holes and put three bullets in his leg
Captain Lewis was barely able to steer his
crippled machine to earth within the British
lines. There he was picked up unconscious, his
rescuers not knowing at first whether he was
dead or alive. He proved luckier than most
aviators crippled in mid-air, for after few
minutes he opened his eyes and after drink
of brandy he showed disposition to live.
Now it happened at this time the Duchess of
Westminster was directing war hospital at lie

channel. She had led an aimless life before the
war broke out, quarreling with her husband,
wandering from one cosmopolitan pleasure re-
sort to another and nduging in many frivoli-
ties Once she was so disillusioned with life that
she left 100000 worth of jewels at a railroad
station.
The outbreak Of the war recalled her to
sense of her responsibilities and the claims of
humanity. With her own fortune and her own

A land of the high and the pure and the
best,
With the plow in her hand and a rose
on her breast,
The old land lives, and that is enough;
The old lands here while the years 90

The land of the free and the bold and the
bluff,
With the singing stream and the dream

The old land lives in her light, green
beauty
For her sons Of trust and her sons OF duty,
A land of the Joy and song Of light
In the hammered bloom of the truth and
right.
The old land lives, and it always will;
It's good land now, as 1t always was,
When the harvest sings in the far blue
hill
Or the May bloom bursts where the
wild bees buzz;
The old land lives in the hearts that love
it,
With the star-sown field of its flag above
it,
A land of dew and a land of dawn,
With the old, old habit Of going on.
