Is agreed that the Americas 60 the

why President Harding and Secre-

In pursuance OF the trade plan

ALABAMA's NEXT GOVERNOR

FTER going through the city campaign just ended NA Birmingham has had enough politics for awhile.
 Ii the wishes of the people of Alabama consulted it is not unlikely that they too, would rather devote the next few months to business and uplifting than stenu- ous campaign
 Alabama next year will be called upon off ca and the chief of the group the selection of new governor
 1he Age-Herald believes that situation presents itself wneleoy controversial campaign unnecessary Judge
 llam w. Brandon of Tuscaloosa should be the next governor of Alabama without opposition.
 There may for this Judge Brandon is recog nzed throughout the state who would make an able and competent His long years of public service have given him experience which would nva able in handling the problems that confront governor He capable he honest and sincere he the state and it's people, and he confidence of the peo pie of Alabama in abundant measure.
 In the election of 1918 he lacked hundred votes of being elected Since that time Judge Brandon by his dgnfied attitude and the gracefuness with which he accepted defeat has thousands of friends will welcome opportunity him next year No man n the state has such wide acquaintance every county and in precinct of the they all have confidence in him.
 Why then should not Judge Brandon be given the next to elect him and at the time will the tur- mo and strife that inevitably attend spirited political campaign.

OLD DANCES RETURN
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post.
 People are going back to the old time dances. said William F. Dele- hanty of Cleveland, O., at the 1ar- rine Ion. who believes that such steps as the toddle and other of that, ilk have seen their day. have filled the frequenters of dance halls with a do- and that the only thing new in sight Is the old, paradoxical at that may seem.
 There are many boys and girls be- tween 16 and fS years of age who have never seen the old-time waltz danced properly" declared MT. Dele hanty. Were the dancing masters of the country to set out on cam paign to bring back this delightful old dance, I believe the youngsters would take to 1t like ducks to water. There is an ease, a grace and charm to the waltz that is not associated bunny hug and the kangaroo glide. The old-time one-step, too, was a great dance while 1t lasted. From the one-step came all these other variations, for. after all is said and done, the toddle requires the same sort of musical tempo as that which must be played when one dances the one-step.
 Tn the large cities the old dances may never be popular, but in the smaller towns there is return to them, and the backward movement .s gaining in velocity every day. An at tempt was made recently in New York to have the toddle replaced by what they call the rock, but l be- lieve this was unsuccessful. It all goes to show that the average per son is tired of the ever-changlng dance steps. The time has come for A standard national dance, and 1t looks to me as If the waltz would have first choice"

Birthday Weather

People have begun to ask oues- tons in regard to the weather for the semi-centennial week." said E. C.. Horton, the weather man.
 Everybody is hoping the weather will be at it's best next week and the Washington bureau promises, by special report, probable showers for the last days of this week. This is the month in which we have fewest showers and pleasant weather may be scheduled for next week, though no one can issue d certain report Fair weather means half the battle and if day party will surely be a success"

TAGS" AND RANCHES

American correspondents cabled the news that British debutantes smoked cigarettes openly" at the Ascot. races. It is true that Margot As- quith's, father wrote her severe letter saying he had heard she smoked cigarettes at Continental resort and that he was pained to hear it flor that Is not the manner of young ladies in England" but there Is wealth of testimony to the contrary.
 Recently it has been declared by British physicians that hope of abatc- ment of smoking among women, which results in injury to health, lies in the fact that the fashionable wciaen affected cigarettes until tho shop girls, the factory girls. the acullery maids. their imitators. made the habit objectionable to those who wish to be exclusive. Reform in the interest of health. begins the phy sicians say, where the society wom.- en drop tobacco because it has be- come common" and the rest of the women lose interest in it becausS ic is no longer smart"
 Counting of noses in all classes and even in tbe class most eonspic- uous, would not show that there are more feminine smokers in America than in England. Of course smoking does not proclaim the girl an un- disclipined morsel of sex gadding about to get kissed, There are women who smoke yet who cannot be pictured as gadding about to get kissed, or even succeeding in the event of making the effort. Eut why look for accuracy in any state ment made by one who is so far from statistical accuracy in one matter? American women--the 50.O00,000 or so--are not more undisciplined than British women, one reasonably may guess, and Viscountess Astor finds the well disciplined British women a problem for, and a shock to, the men of Great Britain as voters be- cause they demand reforms of the moral code for which the men are not prepared.

October Reading
From the chIoago Herald.

From the Chicago Herald.
 October Is usually generous tc Chicagoans. In fact. if we had to pick a month which most often, year in and year out, provides steady, satis- | factory weather. we should pick Oc- tober. It is occasionally peevish, but usually serene.
 Nevertheless, October hints of in- door life. Football. which demands the most abounding energy to play and the most passionate devotion 10 watch. Is almost the only outdoor recreation that really flourishes.
 October suggests fires. and firesida relaxation; the approach of winter and winters possibilities of joy.
 By long odds the best fireside re- taxation Is reading. We mean read ing books. Reading is not the best thing in life; in fact. as Robert Louis Stevenson remarked, for life reading Is a mighty poor substitute.
 Much of the reading anybody ought to do is work, and he should do 1t like any other work-getting as much pleasure from 1t as he can, but realizing that it is, nevertheless, a means, not an end in itself.
 But reading is also, If all things be considered, the best winter sport. It Is convenient, enlivening and sus- ceptible of development; that is to to d better. as you can learn to play golf better and better.
 It Is not. one must admit, compet- tive. We are more interested in reading involves no struggle, except with ones own inhibitiors. But ex- cept for the absence of competition winter reading is an amazingly sat- isfactory sport to take up.
 From this point of view. what books you read make little more difference than what golf links you play on in the summer. Some~are better than others-more varied. more testing of your abilities-but the worst Is good. eas
 If you read much, you presently find your books improving; just as if you play much golf, presently you find yourself dissatisfied with poor course.
 Try winter reading oftener. If you practice in October. you will find yourself improving in November and December, and by January you are lil<eiy to have ceased altogether to be duffer.

THE aJAzz BOAT' ON WATER

THE aJALZ nOAA O-s WY From Popular Mechanics Magazine. The first jazz boat" has maoe us appearance. The jazz boat might pc termed a merry go-round on water although it is capable of creating sen sations that its land prototype could never duplicate.
 The device is a round, tublike af' rair. 40 feet in diameter and rect m depth. The bottom is flat. At one point on the circumference, arpi- trarily selected as the stern of the ship. is mounted s0-inch propeller The entire propeller housing and its gear driving apparatus are mounted in such a manner that they can be reyolyed as unit. A rudder IS mounted at the bow of the ship. A gasoline engine provides motive pow CT. The central mast is also the smokestack.
 The operation of the boat Is as follows: When load of passengers has boarded it, the boat casts off from the wharf and proceeds a little way out into the water. While it is still moving forward, the propeller housing is vurned W~that 1t is driv- ing the boat from one side. At the same time. the ruddsr on the oppo- site side of the boat is set parallel with the propeller shaft The effect would be to drive the boat in circles but as the forward momentum has not been lost. the boat instead goes round in coillike path. or. in the language of the builders. 1t "jazzes."

Y Y Bright Outlook for the Chri3tmas Trade

r INDUSTRIAL and financial jour 0 nals paint the approaching holi- lay trade in bright colors. They oint out the difference between tht atlohk a this time asst year ant ". L t yea he holiday trade looked tt as raft to save iron pg eek, T3is year the. e is tht [ vrniSe of big bu3iAes- and p.ofit. a'y p ices. +r.
 the Wall S. eet Journa, says:
 As ths year approaches an end with the honday season in the horizon. ii is interesting to ob- serve the difference in condi tions governing the dry goods trade now and the closing months of 1920. Then the trade. par ticularly many of the retailers, were actually hoping that the holludy puSlneSS would nelp them dispose of their stocks, and many of the smaller concerns ex- pected that the holiday sales would prevent bankruptcy.
 This year all departments ap- proach the holiday season cheer fully The flotsam and jetsam of the trade has been eliminated, business is down to a business basis, and the holiday business, come as it may, means profits. Retailers realize that 1t is going to be thrift Christmas" that gifts will be largely useful and many may even mean buying of regular lines rather than luxury articles, but the trade has pre- pared for this and it Is bound to increase the volume of business at profitable prices.
 No city pulled through the dul months better than Birmingham therefore, none has better reason tt feel that the forecast of the Wal Street Journal will be justified.
