There should be no change in the
law requiring all ships to pay tolls.
III the revenue derived from the tolls
is more than the cost of maintaining
and operating the canal, the surplus
should be converted into the treasury
and applied to the expenses Of gov
eminent. In that way the general
public would be benefited. 1t would
not be benefited by exemption of any
SHIPS from canal tolls, but on the
contrary would be injured by such
exemption. - Bristol Herald Courier.

HUGO SHINES, NEW GERMAN BOSS

saying that if Germany is to rise again and maintain her former position in the markets of the world she must make the road between raw material and the finished article as short and as cheap as possible. He added that if he suc- ceeds, not even the United States win be able to compete with him, but will have to acknowledge themselves beaten in their own game.
 I have tried to get Shines to grant me an interview, only to be told in the most polite manner that the great mag nate, though he appreciates that what he is doing may be of interest to the public abroad. is far too busy to grant interviews for some time to come. A close personal friend of his informs me. however, that a glowing patriotism. far stronger than his desire for money or power. lies behind Stinnes' efforts. and that 1t is his greatest hope that tho work he Is now doing will become of the greatest importance to Germany's future by joining together Prussian.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
 AND ELSEWHERE
Mutual Respect

"A friend of mine laughingly asked me, an Episcopalian. if l wasn afraid to have my office so near the hall of the Knights of Columbus,' said L. P. Hill, editor of the Ensley Enter prise, land I answered no, not at all; for felt that in the first place there wasn't the slightest wish on the part of any of the members of the society to try and proselyte me, and should any of them try it, have been so well established in the faith of the com munion in which I was reared that l am sure I will live and die in it,
 'fBut I did admit to him that every now and then I rub up against Broth CT Bryan, and ask him to let me eaten some of his religious germs, and his invariable reply is, pray for me- Brother HiIl,' which is typical of his humility and piety, and the source or bis power and influence in Birming- ham with all classes and creeds."
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-01-30
Smoking in Elevators

"A travesty on politeness is every day presented on the passenger eie- vators of Birmingham" said F V. Evans, and that is the custom of Te> moval of hats when a lady appears and the continued smoking of pipes, cigar sand cigarettes in the very aces of the ladies, thus impregnating the crowded car with the odoriferous and stifling emissions from old pipes cheap cigars and dude cigarettes. 1 Keeping on the hat ought not to
 be considered discourteous to ladies with whom the man is unacquainted but smoking in her close presence is not only discourteous, but exceedingly uncomfortable in close quarters, not only to ladies, but to some men who would like to be spared from the af. friction.
 There may be no statutory law tc stop this practice but there is a law lof common decency which should be applied.'
