Underwood's Strength
 In North Alabama

 litical activities in north Alabana, and especially of Underwood's s strength in that section. The votes are already sacked and tied" for him, is the report. And what is true of the situation in the northern coun- ties seems to be true throughout the state.
 The people of Alabama appreciate the fact that Underwood is distinct asset. How could it be otherwise ? He is the greatest statesman on the democratic side of the Senate and in- telligent and loyal democrats here at home have no idea of allowing him to be turned down.
 His defeat would be a shame, in deed, but no such shame will fall upon us. No other state with q nan in the Senate of Underwood's trans cendent ability would seriously con slider replacing him.
 MT. Underwood's friends are just now organizing his campaign, but they will work earnestly for him Up to the date of the primary.
 
 All the urging needed is that the Underwood following must not take too much for granted. There will be no apathy in the other camps. Let's have none in Underwood's. We must not only re-elect our senior senator by a decisive majority, but his victory should be sweeping tri- umph.
 The bigger the Underwood vote the greater the credit to the state of Alabama.
 America Has Been Weighed
 and Found Wanting
 7T HE treaty rejected and returned A to President Wilson by the Senate represented the supreme ef- fort of the enlightened nations of the world to prevent futue wars, to break away from the primitive method of fighting over spells and the endless intrigue which sooner or later leads to bloodshed.
 The treaty may or may not be rat ified-some day. Eight moaths passed while Europe was struggling to get on it's feet, to recover its san ity and work out the problems of re- construction. America was the po- tential savior of every stricken na- tion across the sea. America was, in fact, their only chance of saliva tion. Alone of all the .combatants in the world war America emerged strong and practically unscathed, great in power and wealth. Without America European nations realized that the future was hopeless, in so far as new order of things was con- cerned. They could only revert to the old way of living, with Europe an armed camp.
 By rejecting the treaty after eight months wrangling, the United Stares Senate assumes grave responsibil- tty. It leaves large part of Europe prostrate and undermined by bol- chevism. The Senate's action has made Gny further action improbable until many more months have slnpsed. A declaration by Congress that America is at peace with Ger many will be nothing more than a technicality.
 In the mantime, what is to become of Europe? Consider the progress

He kept reiterating the fact that it was a suicidal policy for the bankers. the mer- chants and the advancing farmers to si' quietly by and let the negroes flock to the public works or travel to the north and the west in search of employment He told me that he had seen all of his negro tenants and had frankly advised them to look out for themselves, as it was impossible for him to help in the situation.

I remember a company of United States soldiers being encamped at Eufaula for several months. used to watch them on the streets with awe and would sit in church fascinated as some of them filed in for worship. They were there to keep the peace, for things were at boiling point, and no one knew just when the pot would overflow, but that 1t would was a foregone conclusion.
 I was just youngster at private school. and at recess time thought it was wagons going down the hill. but when I got to the gate 1t seemed to me million negroes were pouring out oi every alley and street and headed out of town. It was the sound of pistols and guns and rifles for the famous riot which brought a congressional investi- gation was in progress. There was much loss of life and scores of wounded.
 -
 I saw later the negro question grad ually being solved amicably in southern Alabama, and then came the great north ern migration. and then war came in to add it's complexity to the situation. and lived through the happenings here in Jef- ferson county and saw thousands of ne groes in uniform. and took great inter est in them. And now the war is over and they, are back. and a further read iustment must be made. and many oi those who went to the other side of the Mason aud Dixon line are returning. It's up to the best men Of both races to act together in a spirit of friendliness to bring about a proper solution of race adjustment

I have brought MT. Thompson in this story to show that even as progressive and as kindly disposed man as he is was absolutely powerless in the grip Of the unusual conditions to face 1t successfully without the backing of the community This Is one thing we have learned out of the war. It was burned into our thoughts that no man stands alone. If the situa- ton were to arise again 1t would be solved by being made a public instead of a private question. Bankers, mer- chants and farmers would come together and pool forces.

New York.-June roses have bios

Milady DEGREES that her garb must
speak of autumn time and falling
leaves, and be so warm of hue and
texture that she can feel snowflakes
and wintry winds upon her. All this
has come to pass according to the
sartorial writ of former fashion years
even though the dress associations
did decree that no velvet and fur
dress confections would be upon the
market this Junetide. The Associat-
ed Milliners worked hardest at their
slogan of Midsummer Hats for Mid
summer Wear" and tbs really true
that the avenue and the hotel tea
rooms flaunt no bona fide velvet
and fur chapeaux. But even the mil
liners have yielded to feminine
whims and placed part velvet hats
upon the market in response to the
demand for something advance" in
the hat line. Thus it is that fluffy
coifed heads bear great floppy leg
horns or lace and maline headgear
topped with velvet crowns in every
shale of the rainbow. The seasons
reds, known as shrimp and lobster,
abound. But, as ever, black velvet
reigns supreme and the smartest
'out-of-season" hats are of cream
straw brim and black velvet crown
trimmed with flapping velvet stream
ers. Other models bespeak summer
about but winter below, having fac
ings of black or gaudy velvet.
The craze for half and half as
regards the seasons is not confined
10 the hat realm alone. The Rue's
fad of mingling summery fabrics
with the sterner stuff of hoary winter
has struck the aevnue also and that
gay thoroughfare is crowded these
summary days with gowns Of organ
die and serge or vOile and velvet.

flowers of wool that lend a wintry
touch or dark, heavy velvet hand
bag completes the costume.
The midwinter standby of warm
Scotch plaid has been inveigled into
midsummer usage, and many tissue
glngbams, voies, and silks use red,
yellow, and green plaids for their
frilliest models. Another season re-
versal is shown in taffeta or satin
models trimmed with summery flecks
of organde. A leading Fifth avenue
ship shows a thousand dollar godwn

kangaroo-pouch pockets lined and
befrilled with tiny ruffles of crisp or
candle. Linens are using velvet and
sombre colors for trimmings, also.
The same window exploited a jade
green linen suit banded with black
velvet and stitched with black wool
ito a plaid effect about the bottom
of the skirt and jacket.
Midsummer coats made for the
sultrest of the dog days employ an
CORA wools and heavy fringes as
trimmings. And a coat simply can
not be a coat unless it has a wisp
of fur about itself somewhere.
Evening capes frequently carry a
maribou or ostrich banding around
the collar and down the front to the
very bottom of the cape.
