/ lists. The lecturer explained that the
! condition of the rats illustrated the
| good effect of adding milk TO an III
adequate diet The rats having milk,
you see, grew large and muscular, with
strong bones, bright eyes and glossy
hair Those that did not have milk
added to their diet had weak bones,
because they lacked minerals, espe-
cially lime, which is so abundant in
milk, and also milk proteinS, which
are unexcelled for making firm, strong
muscles They also lacked vitamines,
the important food accessories so es-
Sential to growth and health. Poor
little things, they did not gain, but ac-
tually lost, while their comrades in the
next cage thrived, and in six weeks
had more than doubled their weight
at the beginning of the demonstration.
THE lecturer explained that the ex-
hibit was not an experiment, because
the facts had already been proved by
experimental evidence. 1t was merely
practical illustration.
"Of COURSE" went on Mrs. Newsom,
eve know perfectly well that baby
will double its weight in six months
on milk alone and really we should
not be SURPRISED that these half-grown
rats would have done the same when
they had all the milk they wished.
The lecturer showed us the stuffed
pelts, which were absolutely lifelike,
and the mounted skeletons. The milk
fed rats had firm, well-formed bones
because they got plenty Of lime, where
as the poor little undernourished ones
had such frail skeletons that some Of
them had to be exhibited in bottles In
stead of being mounted"
Causes of Weak Bones.
Mrs. Olds looked very thoughtful, "a
wonder" she said finally, whether the
small amount of milk the children have
had would partly account for the
easily broken bones in our family?
Three of the children have had frac-
tured arms or legs-and lda'S back
seems so weak"
1t seems probable, though, one can't
say positively, Of course, Mrs. Odds.
The lecturer yesterday confirmed my
belief that milk is better for the
child's nervous system than tea and
coffee, which, as you know, are not
foods mt ALL and which contain ele-
mentS that affect the nerves. It's a
problem TO break a food habit after
child once forms it, l know; that
is why l have always avoided start
ing the tea and coffee habit"
~ believe" said Mrs. Odds, that
the two youngest children might listen
to me if | could tell them the story Of
the rats-and perhaps show them the
picture"
IN be so glad to lend it to you"
smiled Mrs. Newsom.

which would be complimentary to the

RUM RUNNERS, NOT PIRATES,
ON MYSTERY SHIP, is BELIEF
Maritime Men PoohPooh Suggestion That Buccaneers ar
Responsible for Lost Vessels High Seas

said Charles II. Kurtz, surveyor Of the
port OF Philadelphia for the Govern
ment.
II have little doubt that oil the booze
coming into summer resorts Is supplied
by these boats. As to an organized
traffic in liquor, am morally certain
number of men are engaged In SNUG
Cling liquors into this country who have
millions behind them.
Government officials are not certain
of the source, but they do know ships
nrc constantly leaving Eastern ports
under suspicious circumstances. LOOK
at the enormous coast line we have TO
watch and the equipment of revenue
cutters and coast guard at our com
mand and you'll understand how such a
business can exist.
Along the New Jersey coast there
are innumerable covcs ond inlets where
small boats may hide their cargoes. to
be picked up by motortrucks and carried
to their point of delivery. The, snug
CLING traffic exists, but we havo only
been able to catch a few of the smaller
fry OF the men engaged"
Revenue Mon Hunt Clues =
Revenue and customs officials are on
continual watch for clues which
would lead to discovery of some Of
these mystery vessels. Seizures Of
liquor made at shore resorts have made
certain that the organized traffic exists.
One seizure made a montn ago could
have been valued at more than $40, 900
at prices which liquor commands in
these dry days. Scotch whisky. cham
nagne, vermouth, gin and cordials were
in the seizure.
Just the variety which would be
wanted by hotel" said one revenue
official. "All of the hotels at the vari-
GUS summer resorts along the coast are
being supplied by these smugglers. It's
not the sort Of booze which is had in
large quantities in this country now.'
he said. There Is only one way for
Cling
While revenue men know these ships
operate all along the coast, the service
has not been able to cope with the sit
uation due to lack of equipment.
The vessels which bring in the liquor
are all Of great speed and only draw up
near the coast at night. During the
day they remain outside of the three
mile limit, where the Government has
no authority for searching, 1t is pointed
out.
When darkness fnlls. they approach
the coast and meet small motorboats
which come out to take the precious
cargo to shore. There is little doubt
that these same ships are those which
have been sighted by various freighting
and passenger vessels, maritime men
say. They run along without lights
in order to evade other ships and rcve
nue. cutters particularly.
So that solves the question of the
mystery ship, the pirate" ship, the
modern buccancer believed to be re-
moving crews, passenger and cargoes
then sinking the vessels, authorities
agree. Every one who has followed the
sea has small faith in the reports and
all evidence points to the fact that the
ship is manned by smugglers, anxious
to make more than the ordinary pay
from everyday shipping.

method of insuring maintenance, he
said, Is to set up n reserve for that pur-
pose. with the reserve payable to the
city upon the termination of the con-
tract.
The Statement
The statement continued
by the tenth paragraph of the pro-
posed agreement the Frankford Il
must be disconnected from the Market
street D., which must be restored to
its condition prior to the making of the
lease, upon the termination thereof.
This would not only prevent, the run
ming of the Frankford u trains over
the Market street line (Which, OF
course, is reasonably, but it would also
prevent facility Of transfer from one
road to another, even at full addi-
tional fare, and this, notwithstanding
the fact that the p. r. II. would suffer
no inconvenience from continued con =
nection of the lines, but on the other
hand would reap the benefit of the
Frankford Il as feeder to the com :
pany's own lines.
1t is true that Article 2, Section 1,
Paragraph (s) of the Public Service
Commission Act of 1913 only provided
for the construction and maintenance,
if required by the commission, OF
switches or other connections with or
between the lines of other companies OF
the same character where the same is
reasonably practical and can readily be
connected to form continuous line of
transportation and to cause the convey
ance Of persons and property without
unreasonable interruption or delay but
it would seem to be a wanten disregard
of the public convenience to complete
the destruction of that which affords Il
convenient method of transfer of the
public from one line to another without
unreasonable interruption or delay, sim :
ply because the law had not foreseen
the municipal ownership of railway
lines.
Il shall only refer to one other sub =
ject as showing undue haste and i'm

the Eleventh Article 1t is provided
that ''neither this agreement nor any

Mayor Moore declared today that the

objection of Councilman Hall, of the
Seventh Ward.
The Mayor characterized Mr.. HAL
as a "blustering councilmanic gabby-

Mayor Moore's statement was in re-
ply to criticism of Mr.. Hall, who as
serted Mt a meeting Of Councils Public
Welfare Committee yesterday that the
Mayor had no right to choose name
for the ground, as an ordinance had
been introduced in Council providing
that the place be called In honor OF
the late Charles Seger, Councilman ot

The poets that carol sweetly of spring are not alone in admiring this, the most charming of the four seasons. That mortal is wretched indeed who does not feel new hopes and aspira- tions born in his heart when the bleak days of the winter are left behind All of the worlds poets and painters have never been able 10 do full justice to the unstudied are of nature. And who is so poor that he cannot venture forth and see with his own eyes the beauty of green hills and flower starred valleys which the magic of spring has wrought for him?
 Anniston at this season of the year is at it's best and no doubt many sons and daughters throughout the land who have gone forth to fare in other clmes &re thinking just now of this peautiIul spot set like a jewel among the foothills of the Blue Ridge noun
 tains Really one never quite out grows ones love for this beautiful city with it's culture, it's wealth. it's won- derful industries and it's many other attractions. There is an old Indizn leg end concerning the Furnace spring near the original site of the Wood stock furnace founded by the Nobles and Tylers in the very early days Of the city, which leads one to believe that upon drinking from the spring, it has a charm to draw one back to Anniston. No matter how long time may elapse, sooner or later after hay ing drunk from this source, one always returns. So well known is the legend that some who have been 25 and 30 years away remind their friends upon returning that the spring is respon- sible for having drawn them back.
 Anniston affords at this season of fhe wear mi a1-v-~. .onnortunities for de- lightful outing trips. Oxford lake is an ideal place for picnic and the sea son will soon be at hand. For years it has been a popular resort and as improvements are made from time to time it grows in public favor. There is not prettier lake or amusement park to be found anywhere in the

For Good of the
 Community


 CORIOLANUS had led Roman troops to vic M tory. He was popular hero. The com mon people idolized him. They asked that he show the wounds he had received in combat. Coriolanus despised display of valor. It was be- meath the dignity of the aristocrat He would not show his wounds. He would not descend to the level of the mob. The mob reached up and bore him down. They expelled him from Rome Thus began the seer side of the life of a splendid young man leading to his assassination by the enemies of Rome, whom he had led to the gates of his city but there gave way under plea of his women kin.
 There was no reason why Coriolanus should not exhibit his wounds Other leaders did 1t; other brave men had done so The Roman peo- pie had been accustomed to have their warriors make this display of their courage and their prowess. Why not Coriolanus? He flouted his own people. Intolerance begot forgetfulness of service and turned love into hate.
 When they were about to stone Mary Mag dalen Christ held back upraised arms. A sinner became a saint Society has taken hold of the wayward girl. She has been made into useful woman. The so-called bad boy has been given chance. They have proven that badness is only skin deep; that the potentiaity for good in every human is without limit. <.
 We hear less and less of degenerates. Toler- ance has reduced their numbers by showing the rashness of judgment based on intolerance Tol- erance has probed for the germ of decency and nine times out of ten it has found it and with it inoculated the mass into moral health.
 Two malefactors hung on crosses with Christ. To one of them Christ said before He, too, passed away To-day thou shalt be with me in Para disc" That was the denial of natural depravty and degeneracy from the cross. It was the sub lime tolerance which guides men to do the right by one another
 Youth is intolerant because it is ignorant, but it is generously so It is impatient of that which is wrong and would have it righted now by sum- mary process.
