President-elect Uses
the Kid Glove Approach
7HHE President-elect and Senator
| i Lodge have exchanged their first
amenities. The President telegraphed
the senator that he would be graft
fled if the extra session of Congress
could meet clear of appropriation
bills so that it might get to other
pressing business. The senator has
declared that he comedies with the
view of the President-elect, and will
do all in his power to have the appro-
priation bills out of the way.
| The President-elect approached the
senator with careful courtesy, saying,
III hope you will not consider it an
unbecoming intrusion if say it would
please me immensely and strengthen
MY hope of prompt action at the ex-
| ira session of the new Congress if
all appropriation bills could be cleared
away at the present session."
To which the senator replied: cam
in absolute agreement with you and
am doing everything in my power
, now in that same direction"
/ 1t must be delightful to the Mas
sachusetts statesman to have the
President-elect approach him in this
kid-glove fashion after several years
of strenuous experience with Presi-
dent Wilson. The President-elect's
message to the senator is as mild and
respectful as though he were a cour-
tier entering the ante-room of his
sovereign. The reply of the senator
is that of gracious overload accept
ing the suggestion of trusted min
lister.
The nation has no objection to this
state OF courtesy. In fact, it will be-
welcomed if it produces results.

is. There is room for the definition and
punishment of the domestic enemy.

aegis of the right of free speech.
| Some of the national legislators re-
sent the President elects request to
hurry up the appropriation bills. 1t is
a brave man who demands dispatch in,
that quarter.

Duplicate Tag

TT seems shame that the state tax
commission does not provide for the
issuance of a duplicate dog tag to per-
sons whose pets lose their tags" said
II. G. Gilmore.
After one has paid the state tax it
is very hard for them to be forced to
pay the licenses second time to keep
the officers from killing their dogs
The records are kept in the office of
the clerk of the court. and it would not
be hard for the state to issue dupli-
cate tag, in my opinion. People can be-
come very much attached to pets, but
even at that they can't afford to pay
the tax sit is now with the delin-
quent and constab1e's fees more than
once"

Birmingham is certainly getting to
be leader in things aeronautical," de-
clared M. r. Calhoun. We have had
one of the best flying fields in the
south here for more than two years.
We put over the two big balloon races,
then we have practically secured the
air mail service, national guard fly
ing squadron is to be organized here,
and Eddie Stinson, who is probably the
greatest flyer in America, is running
a school Of flying on the Dixie flying
field.
"All these things certainly put Bir-
mingham in the front rank in the de-
velopment of what is destined to be
one Of the great transportation factors.
Incidentally Eddie Stinson has had
more hours in the air than any man in
America. He Is the oldest pilot, from

flown more than 5000 hours

Resolutions And Doors.

Making resolutions is easy.
Breaking them is quite as
easy.
This is the season when the
resoluting citizen is busy max
ing new ones, just as he has
been making them year after
year since he has been old
enough to resolute.
AS a community we are linn
tied in numbers but we possess
the brains and the power Of
will to do that which we un-
dertake if the same is within
the bounds of reasonable pos
sibility.
"Resoluting" won't accom-
plish this result, but doing"
will.
Therefore. let US forget the
subject of resolutions and con-
centrate on the more profitable
one of daily performances.
We can't expect TO set the
world afire with our energy
and our perseverance. but we
can keep a small portion of it
warm and in "A healthy and
thriving condition.
Some people say il is bet
ter to make a good resolution
and break il than not TO make
il at all. Believe it, IL you
like.
But to our mind the fellow
who quietly goes to work and
does things is worth a dozen

As The Editor Sees 1t.

As the new year greets us,
let us cheerfully pass the greet
ings along to each other, with
a determination to do that
which is permitted US to do in
an effort to build up this COM
munity and enhance the well
fare of every individual citizen
thereof.
There are many ways of do
ing this but one way especial
ly comes to our mind at this
time.
We are in the habit of look
ing upon our municipal offici-
ais as our public servants, who
are expected to do our bidding.
But the faithful performance
of duty is not incumbent alone
upon them. 1t developes equal
ly upon US as citizens. We
owe a duty to our officials, just
as they owe a duty to US.
That duty is TO aid and assist
them in their labors for the
common good.
If there is one single condi-
ton existing in this town that
is not as il should be il is our
duty to point il out to them,
in order that they may give it
consideration.
IL there is an Improvement
that can be made that will be
justified by circumstances and
will be Of benefit TO the COM
munity. it is our duty to bring
that to their attention.
In other words, our duty as
citizens does not end with cast
ing our ballots at the polls.
The men we elect to public Of
flee are entitled 10 our encour-
agement and loyal support in
all that is for the welfare of
the community
We cannot be lax in our
duty and expect them to re-
main jealous in the perform
ance Of theirs.
The fifty-fifty road is a good
one to travel.

which a real community spirit

ence in Washington.
II will propably see the call
ing Of an economic conference
for the purpose Of stabilizing
the finances of the world.
II will give us clearer in
sight into the ultimate intcn-
tons of the allies relative to
the eleven billions Of dollars
they owe us-whether or not
these foreign obligations are
to be considered of any great
or value TO us than mere
scraps of paper.
II will see the sentiment Of
this country crystalizing for or
against the four-ply alliance
that has been signed between
the United States. England.
France and Japan.
II will see this country well
on the road TO normally or
facing n long period of bust
ness stagnation.
II will see the nations Of the
old world emerging from their
misery or crumbling into de-
cay.
II will see humanity again
on the verge of triumphacy or
PROSTATE at the feet of destruc-
ton.
Much will occur within the
year.
These great questions of
world import may not be de-
cided by the people of this
community. other than such
weight as the voices of a few
may have among the many.
But though we are few in
numbers. we yet are not with
out obligations. A solemn
duty confronts US, as collec-
tive community and as indivi-
duals.
That duty is to labor toward
the restoration of normal con-
iitions in the business world.

patriotism and fidelity To our
country. and TO lend our aid
