 The sum allotted to the whole state of Alabama is only twenty-five thou sand dollars, as General Sanders points out, just half the amount Bir- mingham was assessed in the repub- lican "quota list" exposed by Gov ernor Cox. Local committees will be appointed to help in making collec- tions. Subscriptions may be made directly to the committees or for warded to General Sanders at Ath- ems, Ala.

1 Magnus leaped to his feet spitting blood and teeth. I have deceived the reader as to the sex of the animal Magnus fought, but for no longer than Magnus himself was deceived. When he rose .t.e observed that the buh was a COW, a lanx, wild-eyed COW of the Jalisco range. Now, Magnus at that time was lmateur wrestling champion of Mexico, having the Athletic Club at the capital lie a.so knew the cowboy trick of throwing a steer by grasping the horns and fastening the teeth in the fender nose-a feat of skill more than strength, which may be sen in Montana as well as Mexico. But Magnus also knew that no bull fighter will fight COW and he knew the reason-that when the bull charges he closes his eyes and easily may be avoid ed by a quick movement to the side, but that the COW charges with eyes open and deftly alters her course to conform to that of her opponent. That had account ed for his accident.
 
 the pain of the blow on the mouth,s at the humiliation of it all, at the enemies that had foisted a COW upon him, at their scornful cries and lastly and most fu- riously at the COW herself He leaped at the animal and grasping the horns, tried the cowboy trick of steer throwing. But his toothless gums would not permit it. and in fury he gave the horns a wrestlers wrench that sent the animal sprawling
 Then Eduardo Magnus bowed low to the beautiful Dolores Martinez and DICK i ing up the flowers she had tossed, pressed them to his lips and bowed again. When this second bow was half effected there was crash in Magnus's brain. The COW with feminine treachery had butted him from the rear at the very moment he was bent in the prettiest bow that matador ever made to his queen.
 l When Magnus awoke he was in his own bed. The surgeon told him he was un- | hurt except for many bruises and the missing teeth

ODD BULL FIGHT IN MEXICO

Timothy Gilman Turner, in Leslie's.
 M N 1909 in Gaudalajara, second in pop
 ulation but first in beauty in Mex
 ican cities, Eduardo Magnus
 pranced up to the bull with all the grace
 of professional.as a toe dancer at
 first and then flat-footed with the thin
 sword leveled beneath the red scarf. The animal had been tormented properly by
 the riders with the spears, but for req son unknown to Magnus the men who ply the paper -festooned darts had not
 done their work, except from behind the
 places of refuge about the ring by an
 occasoinal thrust.
 Magnus was a favorite with the young
 wcmen, especially because he was apt at rhyning the easily rhymed language of Cervantes, and his verses had quickened
 the same reason Magnus was not popular
 with the young men, and his success as
 assistant to an importing broker had not
 improved matters. Envy, in Mexico, burns like the desert sun.
 So when Eduardo Magnus stepped up to despatch the bull the cheer was mostly feminine and Dolores Martinez leaned far from her throne to toss bouquet at his feet. The bull charged and Mag rus stepped deftly to one side, holding out the red scarf draped over the sword. The animal did not strike the scarf, how ever, but turned and struck Magnus. There was a thud, heard in all parts of the ring. The horns, whose tips are sawed off in amateur fights, did no, strike hfm. but the top of the animals head and the mans stomach met in col lision
 Magnus lay still with his eyes closed hoping thus to recover his wind. He felt the breath of the bull on his cheek, but he did not move a muscle. Then a blow in the face brought him from his mock death.
 The animal had snorted moment and then with forefoot struck the prostrate , matador squarely in the mouth Some of the young women screamed, and many of the young men cried Bravo toro' as

IN HOTEL LCBBIES
 AND ELSEWHERE
Book Shortage

There is going to be a shortage of text books for the county schools this year" said pr. N. R. Baker, county superintendent of education.
 This is brought about on account of many of the book publishing firms with whom the state has contracts cancelling> their contracts oil account of the increase in white paper costs The state signed a contract for five years and during the past four years the price of white paper has advanced very much. However, we are making every effort to secure a~ sufficient number of text books for the schools this year and we are urging every one to use their old books if they happen to have any Others who are not go- ing to use text books are requested to sell them to pupils.
 State Superintendent John w. Aber- crombie, in a letter to me yesterday, stated that he was advising a definite campaign be put on to have brought into use all old text books that have been aceumulating for the period of twelve years. This, he states, will probably not meet the full demand for new text books, but it will go long way toward supplying the shortage"

Has Good Market

T am fast learning that Birmin gham IS great place." said T. H. sharp, travelling secretary of the Old Colony Club, and being from Norfolk where we have city market, l have been in terested in the agitation over the mat ter-here. fs
 Norfolk has one of the best markets in the country. I have seen carloads of watermelons on your sidetracks, but in Norfolk have seen shiploads of them, It's great sight to go to the docks and watch the sloops lined up with all kinds of fish and produce It is also interesting to visit the city market, where the hucksters have rent ed stalls, or to watch the wagons lined up outside. It's the thing for the citi- zens to make their own purchases We'll known men can be seen with bask t under their arms filled with good things. l hope Birmingham will work out way for the truckers and the housewives to get together at some convenient point"

COCKTAIL DRIVE FAILS

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 LonAon.-The great American cock tail offensive, directed against London, has failed. The old time English sa- looms put up heavy whisky and soda barrage, before which the New York storm troops, although cleverly led, beat dsordered retreat.
 The American attack was conducted by unemployed Manhattan bartenders They effected secret landing in Eng land, bringing with them an abund- ance and variety of munitions. They were confident that they would win with liquid fire" but despite the re- finement of their mixed armory, their propaganda system was weak, and the
 forces of the Scottish distilleries won an easy victory, without having to call out the English beer and Iiish stout reserves.
 In issuing an official admission of defeat. Harry Craddock, late of Holland House and Hoffman House New York. and now of the Savoy hotel London, says: My New York friends cannot break into this town. The Englishman pre- fers a long drink. He likes to sip his
 whisky and soda not to toss it off , quickly For that reason he cannot take to cocktails. later he may change; l it's all matter of education" Craddock has 200 cocktails on the Sayoyswine list, but 90 per cent of his customers are Americans.

WILL "PANCHO' MAKE GOOD?

From the Kansas City Star.
 IN on his ranch in Canutillo, and as = soon as he gets the harness mend- ed will be ready for the fall blowing. The Mexican government is sending him some American farm implements from ki Paso and we suppose his congressman has put him down on the mailing list for seeds.
 With ordinary luck and no distractions, Farmer Villa ought to have crop in the spring. Still, he should not be dis couraged if things, go little slowly at the start Owing to the backward state of agriculture in Mexico, consequent upon lie attention in recent years. the Canu- tillo ranch probably is little run. down. The fences probably are not hog tight and the barn will be likely to need bat tening and painting. These things will
 keep Farmer Villa busy until his tools arrive. Meanwhile. also, we would ad- wise him to subscribe to good farm paper.
 We always have believed there was a chance for a good farmer in Mexico. MT
 Villa may be just the man. His t4eas seem to be progressive and his industry is unouestioned. If his views on silage are sound. and with half an eye to the advantage of turning the COW in on the
 young wheat about Christmas, there seems no reason why he shouldn't get the place on a paying basis in few years. Our own view is that Mexico has been overbeaned of late years, and if Farmer Villa will cut loose from beans, and even chick peas. entirely. and go in for diversified crops-say little sorghum cane. some kafir and such like forage. with a main acreage of wheat or corn why, he will do immeasurably better. we
 believe. than by continuing to bean Mex. 1 ico year after year.
 !, As to dairying we would hesitate to
 say. Undoubtedly Mexico needs dairy 7! ing, but whether Farmer Villa is the
 nan to give milch COWS the peace of
 mind essential to good milkers may be ! open to question. We have heard he is ] not a patient man. and sometimes gets annoyed. He is not. perhaps, on the whole. what milch COW of placid tenn
 peramsnt would call resttpl company

Market Location

There is only one logical solution to the municipal market situation as a permanent proposition, and that is to roof over the space between the via ducts of Twenty-f and Twenty-sec- ond streets, and to use this square block for that purpose,p said J. Emory Randall
 This would provide ample space for wagons, and members of the family of the producers could open small stalls so the men could return to the farms and get to work. There would be no complaint from noise, and there would be no traffic to block.
 "As being convenient, almost every car in the city except the Tidewat ter comes within two blocks of this place, and many pass by. Besides, women in automobiles could easily reach it.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-09-03

Probably he would do we'll not to try dairyins at the start.
 What Farmer Villa needs for the first few years, if have a correct no- tion of his case, is something that will keep him interested and busy. We would unhesitatingly recommend fence-jumpng steers and hogs that get under the house farther than they can be reached With the longest pole on the place It might be well to have hen that lays out but won't tell where, and some ne. shbors who refuse to drag their read These are tho things that keep a farmer from idle Il oughts and from spending his time talk ing politics in town-things that Farmer Villa should avoid as much as possible. if we have the correct idea

Composition Roofs

Composition roofs are much sa fer when it comes to fires" said s. A. Mid dleton. chief of the fire department. We had fire in a negro section last night. Three houses covered with shin gles were burning when the truck got there.
 We had only one hose with which to protect the houses on each side of three houses which were rapidly being con- sumed by the flames. Fortunately, the house on either side was covered with composition roofing. We were able to shift the hose from first one side and then the other until all danger, as far as those houses were concerned. was overcome. Of course. we had to let the three center houses burn. If the sur- rounding houses had not been equipped with composition roofing they might have gone the same way"

Motor Truck as a
 Railroad Auxiliary
< # 4

1T SEWER, president of the Ala lko bama Manufacturers Asso- citation, is former railroad man. He spent years in that service and held offices of highest trust, requiring both experience and skill.
 MT. Sevier in one of his weekly letters to members of the association calls attention to the transfer of less than carload lots of freight by the railroad companies, and suggests the use of motor trucks in that capacity to relieve the freight cars for other purposes. He says:
 At least fifteen boxcars are tied
 up daily in this service in Birming
 ham. Use of trucks for such serv-
 ice would release four hundred and
 fifty cars per months, fifty-four
 hundred boxcars per annum. This
 transfer could be performed al less
 cost by trucks and would permit
 use of these cars for other pur-
 poses.
 If that many cars would be re- leased in Birmingham by this means, like results would attend such truck service in other lines. If eonomical in Birmingham, it should be economi- cal elsewhere.
 The nation has been generous to the railroads. In turn, the railroads should devise every scheme possible and make every effort within their power to reduce the cost of operation If the motor truck is available as an auxiliary to railroad service, there is no reason in the world why it should not be employed.
 One natural impulse is to rebel against change. Some of the ablest railroad men were slow in adopting the electric headlight, because it was new. That kind of philosophy nc longer holds good. Everything new that promises better results than something old should be given trial
 MT. Sevier's suggestion will doubt. less receive the attention that it de serves.

Progressive Anniston
 Maintains Brisk Stride

A WINSTON boasts it's thirteenth
 A cast iron pipe shop. It led the country already, but it has built five new shops in the past year, and added impetus Ito that lead.
 Further good news from that hus- ting city is to the effect that the Lynchburg foundry's high pressure pipe plant has been taken over by local interests allied with successful metal operations there. The meaning of this is that this plant will here after join the list of the permanent ly active instead of those operating intermittently.
 Two of these pipe shops manufac- ture high pressure gas and water pipe; the thers sanitary pipe and fittings. Their daily melt will ap- proximate the average product of two blast furnaces.
 Besides pipe shops and a. blast fur mace industry, Anniston has the only electric steel plant in the south, and is manufacturing high grade ferro- silicons, ferro- manganese and ferro phosphorus.
 Anniston is symmetrical. She has "a large cotton mill industry. Sht has built up, not on one side, but or several.
 All Alabama should be proud o1 Anniston. We should be proud when ever any of our cities are seen to bt taking real forward steps, for what ever prestige comes to any of then is reflected on all.
 There is nothing which Alabam ians may not attain by pulling to gether and getting behind one an other whenever and wherever the, discover honest effort being made t forge ahead.

Many Do Good

Where one man leaves Birmingh with an impression similar to the one James Owen O'Connor has, dozens leave our city with feeling of good will and pleasure because of having been in it," said Elihu J. Colbert, pub lie accountant.
 These people talk Birmingham and give a boost at every opportunity. These are the people that really count, and they are doing more good for the city than O'Connor can do harm in many a. day. This, then, is the rule, and OConner is the exception that proves the rule.'

PARTNERSHIPS POPULATION
rom the Nashville Banner.

Tennessee's decrease in population cannot be explained on the ground that large numbers of Tennesseans have gone to Cuba.-Birmingham Age-Her- aid.
 Tennessee suffered no decrease in population. On the contrary it gained 152.6I0, or per cent, practically as many people as constitute the city of Birmingham. And. just between friends. Tennessee has so many lofty mountains and the moon shines so kindly that our people don't have to go to Cuba.
