A walnut seed was planted by
Bishop Paine in 1857 on the grounds
which surround his residence in
this city. The seed came up and
grew to become a stately tree. The
tree was a pride to his descendants
who guarded and protected it
through all the years; the tornado
which visited Aberdeen in 1920
uprooted this tree. Capt. Geo. C.
Paine who now owns and occupies
the old homestead had the trunk
manufactured into lumber out of
which MIG @ Bourland of this city,
constructed a library table, which
for excellence of workmanship and
beauty of finish, would do credit to
the most up-to-date furniture facto-
ries of the East. The table adorns
the front offices of Paine x Paine.
Aside from its beauty. and utility.
this table is of peculiar interest,
because it exists as a reminder of
the aesthetic taste of one of Meth
odism's earliest and most loved
bishops.

Cooperative Market
ing of Cotton Seed

All the authorities we have heard
from predict much higher prices for
cotton seed. Before the season is
over there is likely to be the most
spirited competition among the
mills in buying. An almost un-
precedentedly short cotton crop of
course means a correspondingly
short yield of cotton seed.
Here again comes in great OPP
portunity for cooperative market
ing. Farmers in every cotton-grow-
ing county in the South should
sign agreements to sell their cotton
seed together. and appoint a strong
and businesslike committee to get
the best possible prices and ex-
change arrangements leach farmer
having the privilege of choosing
outright sale or exchange of seed
for meal Such a committee should
not act in too much of hurry but
give time for the market to find it.
self.
This method of pooling cotton
seed has been used to great adj
vantage by farmers in many coun-
ties in former wears. This year it
ought to work even better than
usual Progressive Farmer.

THE PRESIDENT HAS
THE POWER To DO IT
Let Him Issue a Proclamation
Concerning Motor Cars

Ii the coming winter is as severe
as has been predicted the distress
of the unemployed and their fami-
lies will be acute.
This fact is so manifest that the
president of the United States, with
all of his cares and burdens. deems
it necessary to take a personal in
terest in the plans for sffording
necessary relief.
Believing that the president has
an open mind, we presume to offer
a suggestion.
Let him issue 8 proclamation
calling upon all of the people of
our country who own motor cars to
set aside one Sunday in a month to
be known and observed as gasless
Sunday and to be continued until
there is no longer necessity for its
observance.
In other words, let every car re-
main in it's garage that day and
night.
Then let the owners of the cars
voluntarily contribute the price of
the gas and oil they thus save that
day toward fund for feeding the
hungry and furnishing warm clothes
for those who are unable to procure
them.
Let the enormous sum thus real
lied be turned over to the SALIVA
ton Army for distribution when
and where it is most needed.
We suggest distribution by this
organization because it is in close
and constant touch with the poor
and distressed; and are. we believe.
better fitted for the work than any
of the numerous charitable organi-
cations.
Keeping a car idle on Sunday
would work hardship on no one
assuming of course. that doctors.
undertakers, etc. would be exempt
where necessity arises for the legi.
innate use of car.
The Contribution of the gas and
oil thus saved would not be an ex-i
pense to the car owner, as he would
simply be contributing the amount
for the relief of distress instead of
burning it up on the roads.
A Sunday at homs might be re-
freshing to millions OF people who
are always on the move
An hour at church might be both
refreshing and beneficial.
The president can do it,, if he
will.
L would be small minded eiti-

ROTARIANS HEAR
 TALK ON PARKS.
Robert L. Totten, Kiwanian, Urges Bond Issue at
 Weekly Luncheon

Robert L. Totten of the Kfwanif club made an interesting talk to mem bers of the Rotary club yesterday afternoon on the movement started several weeks ago by the Indian az gregation for the development of an adequate system of parks and play grounds In Birmingham.
 He gave figures comparing the park acreage In Birmingham to that of other large cities of the United States. showing that in this respect Birmingham was far behind. With the cooperation of the civic organ izations in this city he stated that in few years he hoped there would be a system of parks and playgrounds here that would rank with any city in the south.
 He declared that questionnaires had been mailed to large number of dities asking for information as to parks and playgrounds and how they were operated and that much valu able data had been gathered from the 2S cities answering.
 Urges Bond Issue
 These cities have a park commits sion composed of number of promi nent citizens serving without pay and they have as their executive a land scape engineer. In his opinion, he stated, it would be necessary to issue bonds to improve the parks and play grounds in this city and that these bonds should be issued so that a cer- tain amount would be available each year for the maintenance of the parks.
 Dr. James McLester made a brief talk on health, this week being des- ignated as health week by interna- tional Rotary. He spoke of the splen- did work being done by the United States health service and paid a glow ing tribute to pr. Welsh, state health officer, and pr. J. D. Bowling, city and county health officer, on tlr& work they are doing to combat social dis cases
 He appealed to Rotarians to give these officers their moral support, declaring they had built up the best clinic in the south right here in Bir- mingham.
 Boy Scout Work
 E. H. Andrews, chairman of the committee to raise funds for the op- eration and maintenance of the Boys, club and the Boy Scouts during 1922. reported that $22,435 had been sub scribed for this work. The commit tee in charge recommended that from the funds collected the Boys club should receive $6,500 and the Bir- mingham council Boy Scouts of America $12,500 for their work of 1922. Any surplus arising from this collection shall be retained by the treasurer of the Rotary fund for boys as a nucleus for the campaign for funds to be raised for the same pur- pose in 1923
 Only upon orders of the board of directors of the Rotary club shall the treasurer of the Rotary fund for boys be authorized to pay any of the amounts above apportioned either into the treasury of the Boys club or the Birmingham council, Boy Scouts of America, according to the report.
