Once in a while you will run into a man who seems to do all his thinking between the collar bone and the pave ment.
 wife believes every word her hus- band tells her--until she has been married for about two weeks.
 The old-fashioned girl who used to be the pink of propriety now has a daughter who is a red-hot sport.
 man can brag so much about his family tree that other men will get the impression that he is block head
 The reason you never see the old- fashioned motto: What Is Home Without Mother?' any more is be- cause so many families consist sof a husband. a wife and a poodle. What doth it profit a man to get daughter off his hands when he. has to keep son-in-law on his feet?
 Every small community has a man who is willing to back his g watch against the town clock any old time.
 No matter how high a man rises in this world he never gets above sus- picion.
 A lot of towns are putting women on the police force. If this keeps up, a smart crook will have to carry a pocketfull of mice around with him.
 Of course it is none of our business. But big stickpin with a stained glass setting doesn't make a dirty tie look any cleaner.

1 this week. The Isthmian Steamshir
 company's vessels, the Selma City and
 Howick Hall are taking on Ensley rails and Fairfield steel plates for the orient.
 The Isthmian Steamship company is an auxiliary of the Steel Corporation and its business is to handle the 3S ships that have been turned over to 1t by the Chickasaw and Federal Ship building companies, also Steel Cor poration auxiliaries, and see that these ships carry American goods to the peoples of the earth.
 Alabama thus has 33 great ocean freighters available for transportation of her iron and steel products and whatever else she offers. These ships will put in at Mobile whenever SASAS 10 SfAA SO LOL I1leHls DlInlnGnam mills will not have to go out and look for ships. The ships are ready to serve.
 Birmingham mills probably stand alone in the simultaneous filling of the holds of two 10,00O-ton vessels with steel products. A portion of the cargoes, 10000 tons of steel rails for Manchurian railroads, is the larg- est order for export received in America in some time, and its com ing to the Ensley mills was regarded in the steel trade as a notable achieve ment.
 This is proof of the impregnability of Birmingham as an iron and steel producer. There are two strings to her bow, foreign and domestic. There are times when the foreign is the stronger.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA, April p.
 (Specal.)-While other buildings

| ~ CHARLOTTESVILLE VA, April 2. N Special )-While other buildings half its age have long since be- come treasured relics, the little yellowish gray house at the University of Vir- ginia, home of James Monroe, fifth Pres ident of the United States, is still fight ing off antedeluvianism and is endeav- orlng to conform with the utilitarian principles of twentieth century life
 In fact the square century and half old structure, which is older than the republic itself, has just spruced up and taken new lease of life by having steam heat and electric lights installed. It is ready neither for the scrap heap nor the shrine list.
 As the home of the father of the Mon roe doctrine, the little house is of pres ent interest because of President Hard ing's recent message to Congress, which is nothing more nor less than a reaf- firmation of the statement that the old world shall not interfere with the af- fairs of the new world and vice versa
 The house was the first actor on the stage at the University of Virginia From its eminence on Monr6e's hill on the western slope of what are now the uni versity grounds, it had witnessed many a sunset behind the Blue Ridge before Jefferson's dream of a great educa- tional center at Charlottesville came true.
 Monroe was a regent and member Of the board of visitors .of the university

Clandestine Mail
 Dealt a Hard Blow

| "A BUSE of the general delivery
 A window in postoffices is some
 thing that moral reformers have de
 voted little attention to, but it has
 been responsible for large part ot the clandestine correspondence which has wrecked homes, caused divorces and ruined many lives.
 The postmaster of Atlantic City made trial of postal order which permits a postmaster in any city pos sessing a carrier system to order mail directed to general delivery to be de- livered at the homes of the persons addressed, whenever their addresses are known. Obviously such a ruling would cause consternation among fir tatious wives and husbands who car " on secret correspondence as well as other persons who, for no good reason, do not wish to receive some of their mail at their homes or places of business.
 ] The results at Atlantic City have been pronounced. Indications show that large volume ok this kind of correspondence has been stopped. While the object of the postal authori- ties is chiefly to prevent unnecessary use of the general delivery by people who get most of their mail through other channels, or could do so, the rul- ing promises to make the way of the philanderer more difficult.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-04-23
OLD HOME OF MONROE

1 He occupied the stone and plaster dweli- elected President in 1877. The front of the house now looks virtually as it did century and half ago, though four rooms have been added to the rear.
 The fifth President of the United States divided his time between the house and another two-story building, situated about 100 feet south of the main struc- ture. This he used as his law office and for the preparation of cases which he later tried in Albemarie and adjoining counties.
 The house proper is now the home of pr. William M. Thornton, dean of the universitys department of engineering. The law office serves as lodging for Dr. ripton Ray Snavely, adjunct pro- lessor of economies.
 The promulgator of the Monroe doctrine intended to make Monroe hill his perma- nent residence, and had actually gone so far as to plan for the remodeiling of the house. For sorne unknown reason he uociueu III lAVOr oI Asn lawn near non- ticello. home of Thomas Jefferson
 The late Stanford White, New York architect, declared that the ridge upon which the house stands Is an ideal site for expansion by the university. No ef- fort will be made to tear down either structure in carrying out the building programme which, it is hoped, will be made possible by the university's centen nial endowment fund.
