FORD BUYS ORE LANDS.
Associated With Recently Organized
Steel Company.


Birmingham, Ala, Dec. 1.-THE
name of Henry Ford is associated
with the Great Southern Steel Com
pany, recently organized at Denver,
Del. 1t is definitely stated that the
properties owned by the incorpora-
tors consist of 101, 900 acres of val
liable mineral lands in close proxi-
nifty to Birmingham and IS miles
distant from Muscle Shoals. Mr..
Ford is credited with having pur-
chased $4,000 of the 100000 acres of
coal and ore land originally purchased
by Chicago interests in organizing
the Great Southern Steel Company.
Gadsden persons believe the back
ers and stockholders of the new cor
poration are the same persons who
have been making purchases of ore
and coal lands in Etowah and adjoin-
ing counties for the past three years.
w. L. Smith of Gadsden has been their
agent. Corporations making the pur-
chase areknown as the Alabama Land
Syndicate, White Iron and Coal COM
pany, Palatina Mining and Develop
ment Company and the Etowah Coal
and Iron Company. They are credi-
ted with purchasing 100000 acres in
Etowah, Marshall, st. Clair, DeKalb

The Problems OF
Home and Family
A Talk with our Wives, Mothers,
and Sisters
The Coming Generation

What constitutes a really gooc
education? 1t seems time that
parents were taking a genuine in.
terest in this vital problem. Fol
the facts are Q) that the whole
plan and purpose of education
have been completely overturned
in America within the past few
years; and (2) that our public
schools are taking on completely
new character as a result.
1t follows that our children are
to be made into different type of
men and women from ourselves.
Depending upon our self-esteem,
we may or may not be satisfied
with this prospect. At any rate,
since our own children are the
ones affected, and since we recog-
nize the omnipotence Of education
In determining what manner of
men and women they are to be, it
is highly appropriate that we look
carefully into the merits of the
new training that is SO rapidly re-

Seeking a New Record

The former Alice Roosevelt, who
is now Mrs. Nicholas Longsworth,
is said to be seriously considering
becoming candidate for the
United States senatorship from
Ohio to succeed the democratic
Senator Pomerene.
Her husband has long been a
representative from Ohio in the
United States Congress, from
which we may infer that she as
pires not only to be the first wo-
man member of the United States
senate but to outdistance at a
single step her husband in politics.
At any rate, she has of late been a
constant visitor in the senate CAT
lery in Washington.

fore the Women's National Foun-
dalton, in Washington, she made
the emphatic statement that being

really glad that the soldier buried
at Arlington on Armistice Day was
nameless because every mother
will think of him as her own son. -

First Jurywoman Passes

In these days when women are
becoming accustomed to jury SER
vice, it is interesting to read the
account Of the work of the first
American jury which included wo-
men members.
1t was organised in Laramie;
Wyoming, ifty-one years ago last
March. Six women were included
in its membership. It's first case
was that of a man accused of MUIR
der. He was found guilty in the
second degree and sentenced to a
long penitentiary term.
The six women are now ill dead,
the last one, a Mrs. Heard, hav-
ing passed away early this month
at her home in Ogden, Utah, at
the age Of seventy nine.

bride seventeen when they were
married away back in Andrew

A Great Nation Threatened

A conference was recently held
in France to consider problem as
momentous to that nation as is the
question Of enduring peace.
1t was called for the specific pur-
pose of finding way to put an end
to race suicide, which is actually
threatening the continued exis-
tence of France as a nation.
This deadly national malady has
been gradually spreading for more
than a centuryn It was first OBJ
served in the province Of Nor
mandy in the time of Napoleon
Bonaparte 1t has slowly invaded
other provinces during the century
or more that has elapsed until at
present in nine-tenths of France
the birth rate is actually below the
death rate. Moreover, it has not
stopped at the national boundary
but has appeared in England and
Switzerland.
Many causes have been as.
signed and there is no doubt that
many factors contribute to it
However, the one certain thing is
that it is due to the voluntary
preference of the French people.

Royal Tomboy Wins Fortune

Before the war began. there was
much CONSERVATION among the
royal folks Of Europe over the ex-
plolts of the Austrian Princess
Marie, of Esterhazy, who had come
to be generally known as "The
Madcap Princess" Indeed, when
the war storm broke, she was in
seclusion as the result of having
offended the emperor Francis Jo-
seph by a certain wild escapade in
Vienna.
By the defeat of her country
her fathers estates were nearly all
lost. Thrown upon her own re-
sources, she went to South Amer
lea and became ballet dancer at
a fabulous salary. She recently
returned to Austria, reopened and
refurnished her fathers palatial
mansion in Vienna, and set him up
in business again as prince of the
realm, albeit he has been shorn OF
his last trace Of worldly power.

The Weeks Events
Briefly Told for Women
Readers
Not Our First Attempt

Just now it is interesting to note
that our nation has once before at
least taken the lead in a great and
successful movement for peace.
1t was just after the close of our
second war with England. The
long border line between our coun-
try and Canada was the cause of
the gravest apprehension in both
nations, as it was felt that many
new causes of strife and dissension
we're certain to arise along this line
throughout all the future. Be-
cause of this feeling, both coun-
tries were building up war fleets
to the Great Lakes. and maintain
ing forts at various points.
A proposal was made by Presi-
dent Monroe to the British gov
eminent that each nation should
be limited to certain number of
armed vessels, with the suggestion
that the smaller the number, the
better it would suit our own.
Great Britain accepted, and an
agreement was entered into, the
results of which have puzzled the
world ever since. For the two ma
tions have lived in peace for more
than a century without SO much az
a fort, a cannon, soldier or a
warship to guard the four-thou-
sand-mile boundary line.

placing the old in the schools of
America.
Briefly, this new education has
four great aims, or purposes.
The first is to secure better
health, banishing most human dis.
ease and bringing about virtual
physical regeneration of the race.
The second is vocational guild
ance and training for every child
to the end that all may choose
their life work, not biindly, but
wisely, and be made truly skillful
therein.
The third is character training
and the education of the child to
become a useful member of So
ciety as parent, neighbor and
citizen.
The fourth is to give him some
means of wholesome recreation, in
order that his idle hours may not
be spent in vicious or evil amuse-
ments
The real scope and magnitude
of this great movement in educa-
ton will be considered in othen ar
ticles of this series. There is
nothing in it that is in the least
difficult for parents to understand.
Rather, they can perhaps see the
merits and faults of these great
aims even a little better than any,
body else.

Young Women Starting Well

An investigation was made re-
Gently among six hundred women
students at Radcliffe College to
ascertain their habits as to the
reading Of newspapers.
A surprising discovery was that
ninety six per cent of them are
regular newspaper readers and that
sixty-two per cent of them read the
editorial columns. 1t was found,
however, that very few read the
women's feature pages, such as APP
pear in the big Sunday editions,
less than one per cent expressing q
preference for this kind Of reading.

small. Yet it is so opposed to the
