SQU|RES DISCUSS
RATE OF TAXATION
DISPOSITION TO KEEP RATE AS
Low AS POSSIBLE AND MEET
CoUNTYS NEEDS.

Fixing the tax rate will be the chief
question before the county court when
it meets in adjourned session next
Monday morning while here Monday
several of the justices got together
in an informal conference and discuss
ed the tax rate. II is said that they
agreed that it should be kept as low
as possible but at the same time ev-
cry interest of the county should be
taken care of.
One of the big items that the county
is going to have to meet is that for
bridge repairs. Since the last session
of the court the bridge at Carriers
Creek has fallen down and there are
said to be two or three other bridges
in the county that are in a really dan
gerous condition. The account for
bridges is already oTerdrawn and an
increased appropriation must be
made. 1t is not improbable that the
bridge question will come before the
court Monday.
1t is practically certain that the tax
rate recommended by the committee
Of the court will be so amended as to
take care of the road maintenance tax
which was eliminated.

On local markets, dealers quoted all

"GOD THE CREATOR"
 SERMON BY REV. WARE

Taking for his theme God the Gre ator,'' the Rev. J. T. Ware. rector of St. Andrews Episcopal Church, preached a forceful sermon yesterday at the morn ing service MT. Ware said in part:
 That there is a God is merely an hypothesis.
 When the agnostic says God is un- knowable he is entirely correct. The Scripture itself agrees with him and says No man hath seen God atSany time.'
 That there is God is merely an hypothesis; that is translated into the language of religion, the being of God is an object not of sight but of faith.
 'The law of gravtation is also merely an hypothesis yet it has attained high degree of certainty. That there is God is merely an hypothesis, but it is some- what less uncertain than the law of gravitation.
 ''The gravel on the path. the grass on the lawn. the fat sleeping in the sun, you who read and ponder these words; here are facts which we can know. And con sider what science has to say of them; they are facts genetically related. Pos siblv inorganic matter, certainly some speck of life is the seed from w:lich have sprung all living things plants, animals, even man himself
 For all this. there are two possible hypotheses only.
 "The first. that some original, base lifeless stuff had of itself power to grow into the self-conscious. spiritual life of m nar,-that is, that what man himself is conscious he cannot do-create life-some earthy stuff. itself devoid of life, did. This is the hypothesis of materialism.
 'The second, that a being at the very least more living, more thinking. more spiritual than man--that is, God-used a long process of evolutionary develop ment as a means of creating man. This is the hypothesis of Christianity.
 "Materialism. says man. was created by something less than himself Christian ity. by living, thinking, spiritual force at least greater than himself. Between the two. I as a reasonable man, choose the latter. And therefore l say in the Church's creed, q believe in one God Maker of heaven and earth, and of all filings visible and inviSible''

REV. A. R ALDRlGE
 Rev. Aldridge has lived in Birmingham for the past twenty-five years, and at present at No. BOT North Seventy-fifth street. He gave the following signed tes- timonial for Plant Juice:
 q have suffered from stomach trouble, indigestion and dyspepsia for the past two years All my food fermented and soured, causing gas to form, followed by bloating, and belching up wind. A hard lump formed in the pit of my stomach like lump of lead. l had headaches and was dizzy; had pains in my left side and palpitaton of the heart. I thought had appendicitis. I was very nervous and restless at night and could not sleep much. I got no nourishment from my food. the little did eat, and had poor appetite. 1 had lost eleven pounds in weight Rarely could I ever eat any breakfast Now. I can truthfully say for publication that I have been taking Plant Juice for only two weeks and I have gained 21a pounds in weight and enjoy all of my meals I sleep fine and have no more acsies or pains and can certainly recommend Plant Juice to anyone, for I know what it has done for me. I shall have my folks take it at home"

the necessary thing to do. The saving effected by the removal of the school in the elimination of the third and fourth years. in the utilization of ex-s isting laboratory, classroom and h- brary facilities and equipment, not to mention the large saving in overhead costs, must appeal to thinking men.
 "The action taken by the trustees is not destructive; it is constructive. It involves great forward step. The first two years of the medical course are laboratory years. The provision of clinical facilities is not necessary to the work of these, two years. To Mpss friends of medical education whdSDin- cerely desire the establishment of C1ass-A four-year medical school we would say that the policy now being adopted offers the surest and quickest way to reach the desired goal. Ger tainly that goal can never be reached by any method that leaves out of con s:deration the council on medical ed- ucation.
 The action of the trustes still rem ders it possible for medical students to take the B. s. degree at the uni versity by combining the. two pre-med- ical and the two pre-clinical years to he offered on the campus. Having taken the B. s. degree. the student may tfeI lrdnSleT tO one Ol tuc large AOuT- . year schools and in two additional years obtain the M. D, degree. This is tl,e plan followed by the University of Wisconsin, perhaps the greatest of the American state universities, and by the University of North Carolina, one of the strongest of the southern state universities.
 In conclusion. we wish to express again our hearty approval of the recent action of the board of trustes in deal ing with this question. We are con vinced that the decision reached will not merely raise the standard of medi- cal education in Alabama, but will also enhance the reputation of the university at home and abroad. The fact is, the action of the council on medical edu- kcztion left to the trustees no other al- formative. No student will attend a Class-B school. it matters not what is said or done The trustees are sup ported in their action by the expert judgment of pr. H. D. ArnoldA. dean or the Harvard Graduate Medical school, and formerly chairman of the council on medical education. who. as a member of the council, officially i'm years ago and who was invited one year ago by the Alabama educational commission to visit the school second time and make report to the legisla- lure regarding its statuA. Or. krnold's conclusion was summarixed ee follows:

Brief Account Of Sermons
 Preached at Local Churches

CTS of all time, learned this important truth. He had the qualifications, the mind the voice, the moral character, the divine inspiration, and yet he failed until the experience the text sets forth opened his eyes, until he came to them of the captivity and sat where they sat.
 T have a conviction that many pow erfu1 and eloquent sermon would have been choked if the preached had taken the pains to get his facts from first hand experience, instead of from Dame Rumor or the prejudice of his own mind. hold the same, conviction concerning the hot words and sweeping condemna- tion hear from those of one camp about those in another. They are not based upon the knowledge that comes of per- sonal experience. Your attitude and mine will often undergo change if we put ourselves in the others place. How harsh we are to each other. Hor im- patiently we speak of other people whom we simply do not know because we have never sat where they are. How can we be just in our judgment of those who are starved for the want of those good and precious things that we enjoy, whose souls have been warped and twisted by daily contact with mans hard inhumanity to man? What do we know
 
 been tricked and cheated, exploited and oppressed because they were exposed to the winds of diversity?
 We are separated into groups and cliques where we isolate ourselves and become infatuated with the delusion that our class is the people and wisdom will die with us We believe all kinds of absurd and wicked things about one an other because No Mans Land of mis- understanding lies between us.
 We must bridge that gulf. We must come together as friends and brothers and sit each in the others place. We must learn to trust each other, or we will continue to have strife and confusion and war.
 We are all in captivity None of us is free. We are members of society, units of system citizens. husbands, fathers, employer and employe all bound by the laws and rules of civilization, con- trolled by the demands of our duties ana responsibilities. The captivity of some is noble and great. They live for great ends. for high, heroic purposes, for the service of Love Divine. They make me remember One I am prone to forget, and bring me to His feet at the close of the day.
 'I plead for Christian sympathy, for an honest effort to understand one another. for the Knowledge of facts that comes from personal experience of our brothers s lot. We must sit where they sit be- fore we speak. There is no other way to bridge the gaps that separate us. The Son of God came to those of the cap tivity. He says to every soul, I have sat where you sit. I understand. Come unto Me and be blest.'
