BEAUTIFY THE CITY OF THE DEAD

While many arrangements are being made to beau

Silent City, sacred to 1.-THE oveest and the best, that

for of the preparations, too.
Friendship Cemetery is beautiful resting place for the
dead and most of the squares express the tender
brance of living relatives But there many other
squares whose have removed to other locations
Some squares contain entire families who have no
sentatives left to care for them.
1t is true, they all remembered Decoration Day
but little time devoted to the cemetery this season of
the year, to be followed up later with Decoration Day
observances would realize much effective results
Recently many improvements have been made about
the cemetery but there is for many more The Odd
Fellow fraternity the and custodians of the prop
erty should work out plan to keep the cemetery in
trim and attractive all the time This would be service
that the people and community would appreciate.

THE TIME TO BUILD is NOW


There is no more opportune time to build than the
present
This is true for many reasons.
Building materials and lumber very probably have
reached the low price level Labor is plentiful spring is
almost upon u.s. and the main for the necessity of
building is the scarcity of houses and the great de-
mand for them.
Hardly day passes but that person calls at The
Dispatch office looking for house. Since we began
writing this editorial young and his wife came
to the office looking for house to live in They are
going to have difficulty in finding place to live.
Houses are scarce.
If we don't have more houses, cannot expect Column

there is for enlargement of our population.
To build is to render distinct community service

EDITOR RENDERS FINE SERVICE

Over in Birmingham the past week newspaper man,
Victor H. Hanson publisher of The Birmingham News,
rendered distinct and valuable service to the people Of
the Birmingham District and the State of Alabama.
Mr.. Hanson undertook the difficult task of bringing
the warning factions in the coal strike of the Birmingham
District together and settling their differences.
For months the district had been in the throes of
serious strike Mines had been closed down. There had
been boodshed and bitter feud had developed between
the strikers and the employers The situation grow
ing more serious every day. The Governor had sent
troops into the district to maintain law and order.
Mr.. Hanson accepted the trust and the responsibility.
By tact and diplomacy he brought the conflicting
interests to basis of understanding which will pave the
way to kna and amicable adjustment of differences.

PLAY BIG SUCCESS.

The play what Would a Gentle
man Do?" presented by the Dramatic
Club of the Lee High School last
Thursday evening, was pronounced
success, and was attended by a
large and appreciative audience. The
plot, centering around the social as
pirations of middle class English
man, who had suddenly acquired
riches, was well developed and the
characters sustained with aplomb.
The coaches, Misses Rouse and Oh
sen, of the faculty, are to be congrat-
ulated upon their ability to direct the
dramatic talent Of the ciubswith such
happy results.
During one Of the intcrmissions,
Mr.. George Lipscomb, in pleasing
little speech presented Misses Rouse
and Olsen with little token of APP
probation, acknowledging the assis-
tance and zeal Of the coaches.
