'rae Graded Future.

SOFTLY 1t rocks whore the women sew.
Ever and ever. TO and fro:
And who shall deny it. If YOU declare
Thut the fate of Il Nation is sleeping there?
And who shall deny that the Little Thing
Ihat coos TO the rythm of the cradles swing
May grow into One with voice OF steel
And fist that the crrng OF Earth shall foel?
And who shall dony that the cradle holds
One of the women of Natures molds
Who shall stand some day with the great and
good.
Even as boldly Helen stood?
And softly it rocks, where the women sew,
Ever and ever, to and FRO
And the baby COOS to the cradles swing.
X little, but ever n potent Thing!

The Merchant Marine ut Stake

1.-THE Jones merchant marine bill de-
Il signed 10 stimulate the upbuilding OF
t4ansoceanic shipping and indirectly provid-
ing for discrimination i'll favor Of American
Vessels is the product OF The best con
sressional thought 10 meet a situation upon
which public sentiment III America has set
its heart. In the constitutional soundness
o. this legislation is involved the test OF
Americas ability TO compete successfully
for its share in the transportation of ocean
commerce.
Foreign governments have protested Wig
qrously against those provisions OF the bill
which allow discrimination in favor OF
American ships, contending that our COM
mercial treaties with them act as . bar
thereto. This protest is made in face OF
tie fact that the complaining governments
have frequently resorted to heroic measures
OF subsidy and discrimination in develop
Ment OF their own shipping under the oper
alton OF these treaties. Under tho terms
OF the Jones bill. abrogation OF all OF our
commercial treaties which act us a bar
against American discrim nation in favor of
it's own shipping is provided.
In enacting the Jones bill Congress clear
IL recognized that upon this discrimiua tive
provision the entire merchant marine is de-
pendent. not only for its Development but
for its very existence. To make assurance
doubly sure as To the exercise OF this right
the clause abroGating treaties which con-
ficted was inserted il the Jones act falls
short OF this purpose, il is readily 10 be
oppreEcaded that tho future OF the Ameri-
can merchant marine is desperately in
volved
While the Washington administration
seems TO he diyltscd IL. opinion as TO the
wisdom and la~tStness OF the provisions OF
the Jones bill for abrogaton or the treaties
ign
tests are based, ii is stated that the Presi-
dent is much impressed with these protests
and is seriously considering declaring the
act null and void
in cnacting the Jones Bill. Congress
concluded that il had constitutional
authority 10 protect Il vital American in
tsreSt by providing for the abrogation OF
treaties which confiicted with this purpose
Hence. ii would appear that the right 10
declare null and void act OF Congress is
che TO be determined by the Supreme Court
not the President. even though he NAV

 Anniston is proud of the record a num- Der of soldier boys who were educated at this night school made during the world war. Gratitude for the advantages given them here was received frequently from these boys during their stay in
 France.
 One of the boys Mir James Harwell, who served for two years with the Rain bow Division in France, and Miss Ruby Russell, both former pupils of the night school, felt such an attachment for the Community House that they decided to plight their ftroth there, and in the pres ence of a number of friends the ceremony was performed on last Saturday even-
 ing by Rev. s. F. Hodges, pastor of the
 Ffst Presbyterian Church. MT. and Mrs.
 Harwell areA now using the guest room of the Community House until their own little home is completed.
 MT. and Mrs. M. H. Jones, who make their home in the Community House. take great pride in making the home attract i've. Mrs. Jones has recently donated and made dainty white curtains for all the windows. She also instructs Q class of girls once a week in weaving rag rugs By the way, scraps to be used in these rugs will be appreciated by the cass It is hoped that the housekeepers of Annis- ton will donate enough material for a large number of rugs during the next few weeks.
 On Thursday evening and Saturday afternoon the village folk meet at the community house for parties, Mrs. Walsh planning weekly many inter- esting diversions for the social fea- lures of these gatherings. On Friday evening religious service is held.
 All of the churches are. cooperating with Mrs Walsh in this important mission. Some of the members of the missionary societies have recently adopted worthy families and find great pleasure in ministering to their comfort. Especially during the Christi mas season were the village folk bountifully remembered by the churches. The B. Y. P. T. of Parker Memorial. the Mary Lyle Bcle Class, taught by Mrs. John E. Knox. and other classes of the First Presbyterian Sun day School sent quantities of we'll filled stockings to the community house.

 Almost instantly he caught s.sht of Frances. and raising his hat, he moved to her table and after touching her fin gers with his own. sank into a chair by her side and murmured an indifferent order to Mrs. Langdon.
 To the other diners, who had watched his entrance with a little more than us- ual interest," his words were evidently an order regarding some tea, but what he really said was:
