Needed on the Farm

Pretty soon the public schools of the city will turn out for the summer va cation. and there will be many young boys who could do excellent work on the farms, but who will be looking for jobs here in the city" says J. Morgan.
 Every year this same thing hap pens. Hundreds of boys want jobs at the soda fountains and in the differ ent stores Many of them loaf during the summer months because they can not get these so-called 'cinch' jobs, while the farmers who feed the na- tion are begging for help of any kind at most any sort of reasonable price. Farm work Is healthful and profit able and anybody will be better off when he starts back to school next fall after having worked on a farm during the summer months"

Will Make Home Here

Tt gives me genuine pleasure to know that Dr. w. c. James of Rich- mond, Va, who was elected secretary of the education board of the Southern here, will make his home in Birming- ham," said R. G. Hidden. "Dr James. who for some years has been pastor of the Grove Avenue Baptist Church, is ranked as one of the first preachers of Virginia. He is also man of scholarly attainments and will be an addition to the social as well as the religious life of our city. Dr. James will have offices in the Jefferson County Bank building"

Actually, can Birmingham be ac- cused of rent profiteering? asks c. E. Edmunson. "The rent on most houses in the city has been raised from 25 to 100 per cent But isn't this raise per fect1y in line with the increases in the price of practically every other com modity or accommodation that we have?
 Consider the case of the people who own few homes and live on the proceeds of the rent. In few instances will you find that the price has been advanced more than the prices which these people are forced to pay for other things. It seems to me that the only solution to the problem is to either let all prices stay where they are now or have them lowered only when other necessities decline in price" "

Kangaroo Steps


 There are two places I particularly want to see," says Mrs. Elizabeth Henry-St. Louis, Mo, and High Point, North Carolina.
 From what I hear they are the towns where most of the street cars are built. It must be sublimely fas- cinating to see the citizens of these two towns and to admire their tre- mendous stature.
 Naturally, they design the street cars to fit the people of the vicinity, and this must be the reason why the steps of the Birmingham cars are more suitable for the mounting of kan garoos, giants or birds than people, especially old people. Usually I trudge my weary way on my visits about town, for the car steps are so high here 1t is well nigh impossible for elderly people to get on board.
 Some day I hope there will be a Christian designing engineer who will have some consideration for old folks, sick people and the little children, for 1t will be a great day when the car steps are made so all can use them.''

 The reason that I changed my resi- dence from Atlanta to Birmingham was because I believe that Birming- ham Is the city of more opportunities, the coming metropolis of the south" " says S. J. Stevenson, who has recent ly come from Atlanta to take the gen. era1 managership of the Russell photo stock house.
 T have been unusually impressed with the courtesy of the business men to me. Everywhere I went. I was met with the glad hand and welcomed to all gatherings. One week after my first sight of Birmingham I had de- cided upon this as my future home and had brought my family here"

Jack Carney is again arrested this week,
charged with uttering seditious talk while in
Chicago. When Chicago is grieved, then there
must be something in this And now listen to
the Red excusers tell how that it is not so and
that Jack is oppressed by the capitalists and the
bloated bondholders, ETC.. All he said was some
simple thing and then point out the wings that
Jack is growing. His excusers and champions
should have theirs coming soon. Treason is
treason and perhaps Judge Lands remark that
execution and not deportation is the remedy
may become real fact in some cases, before

OPEN LETTER TO FRANKsoN.
billie" Noonan Of Baudette ad-
dresses the following letter to Lieu
tenant Governor Frankson through
his Baudette Region:

Dear Tom:
Like many others we look upon life
with happy mien, and joke with
US is like gas to flivver. 1t makes
us go. But there are good jokes and
bad jokes, and after tossing a COM
plete set Of eyes over your published
platform we are banging the old I'm
derwood to tell you that said plat
form is about as funny as the left
hind wheel Of an ambulance.
When you announced your am
bition to look through the windows
Of the governors Office from the in
side you dragged an atrocity known
as the tonnage tax to the center of
the stage. It was meant, Of course,
to snare votes in southern Minnesota,
but you were foxy enough to know
that II would burn your biscuits in
the northern part Of the state unless
you could find a nimble bait to feed
the lads up here. And then the Big
Idea smacked you right in the skull.
The hicks up north would fall for
the idea Of making Duluth an ocean
port. You figured it would be great
stuff to feed them, didn't you Tom?
And since that time you have been
trying to convince us that you wear
the deep waterway plan where the
dough-boy wore the picture Of his
best girl-with just an undershirt
separating it from his heart.
Honestly, Tom, it won't do. Du-
luth will be an ocean port alright, but
the plan will be put in charge of men
whom we can trust politically. Ever
since you did the flip flop on tonnage
tax anything you say to northern
Minnesota counts about as much as a
busted adding machine. The lads
up here have formed the habit of
giving their minds daily exercise, and
they can't see you atall atall. They
want a statesman for governor, and it
is no libel to say that you don't come
up to specifications.
And by the way, Tom, your ton.
mage tax idea appears to be suffer.
ing from nervous prostration even
in many parts of southern Minnesota
It would be awful if you did another
flip flop before election, wouldn't it!
Yours truly,

Financiers say that we as nation are now
facing the worst financial crisis in our history.
They tell US that the present high cost of living
is caused by our greatly inflated condition and
our floating debt of four billions in treasury GER
tificates. And the only remedy for all this we
are told, is thrift on the part of each of u.s. Pro-
duction of the necessities and cutting out the
luxuries. Will we do it? Not as long as dol
lar of ours remains unspent A good panic or
two with few holes frightened up in our belts
might make difference, but we doubt it. We
are nation of spenders We are living but once
seems to be the cry, let's live while we live.
"T'll wit tomorrow, we've got today, let's use
it, is the prevailing and popular slogan. Our
dollars are made to be spent, spend 'em. Let
and famine might sober us some and start us
along different and better lnes-but we doubt
it very much. But, something is going to blow

better comes soon.
