PARENTS AS PROPHETS

When Gainsborough sold the
other day for 10000 guineas few
people recalled the fact that the sale
falsified very confident parental
prophecy.
Ihe Galnsboroughs were a clever
family. One brother was nicknamed
Schemlng Jack. He made himself a
pair OF wings, though he failed to nv.
He succeeded, however in moking :,
cradle which rocked itself and h
cuckoo which "cuckooed" all tho
year round and never migrated.
The far more famous Thomas. the
great painter, at an early age startled
his father by forging his signature to
message addressed to the local
schoolmaster, which ran as follows.
kindly give Tom holiday" The sig
nature was wonderfully done. and it's
accuracy and cleverness provoked the
parental prophecy. Tom will he
hanged one day" Tom was hanged
In the Royal Academy. So that prog
nostication was right and wrong.
Tennyson was the subject Of two
prophecies, one by his grandfather
and the other by his father. The
1irst was wrong and the second right
aired wrote poem at the early age
or nine on his slate and showed It to
ms grandfather, who gave him a
guinea, with the words:
THE first money poetry has
brought you, my boy, and, hclievc,mc
the last"
Seeing that Tennyson holds the
record as money making poet, and
quite legitimately, this prophecy went
remarkably wrong
His father, during an illness of the
boy, said to him--and he was a hard
man who did not indulge in flattery:
IF Alfred dies England will miss one
of her greatest poets" ....
Charles Darwin, who lies in West
minister Abbey next to Newton was
the subject of very drastic parental
prophecy which went very far wrong
He was very fond of country life. and

same direction, that stern parent said

actually vote, as he was paired.
Mr.. Kelly. who is chairman of the
,,louse conferees at work on the naval
|'bill, with its disarmament amend
ment, made bitter attack on the
resolution declaring congress would
live ito apologize for its act. which he
described as making peace with a
mere clasp of the hand after the
fashion OF professional wrestlers.
The principal attack on the resolu-
ton was based by Democrats on the
ground that it did not properly pro-
tect American rights and that the
United States attempting to nego-
tiate a treaty with Germany and her
allies would sit down with feet and
,hands tied, and without being able to
hold the right won by war. Republi-
cans held however, that all rights
We're safeguarded.
Representative Garrett Tennessee
acting Democratic leader, Represen-
tative Connally. Democrat, Texas, and
Mr.. Flood made the principal
lispeeches against the resolution, all
ldeclaring] that the chief argument in
support of its adoption was that it
would pave the way for greater trade
with Germany.
Failure Of the, senate to accept the
| house substitute will send the whole
question of peace to conference. Most
of the Republican speakers declared
congress ought not to repeal the war
| declaration itself holding it would be
regarded as a reputation of the war
but Democrats reminded them that a
| Republican house twice had adopted
| a peace resolution with that provis-
| ion.
Among the. 49 Democrats who vot-
ed for the resolution were: Crisp,
| Georgia.; Domihick, South Carolina;
Fulmer, South Carolina; Larsen,
Georgia; Landlord. Georgia; Logan,
South Carolina; Overstreet, Georgia
Park, Georgia.; Smithwick, Florida
pUpshaw. Georgia, and vinson, Geor-
gia.

If that engineer Of an earlier day
could come back seven years hence and
look upon the completed Hudson river
bridge, he would feel surely that his
Latin inscription could be placed above
the portals with a stronger emphasis
and more profound significance than
he himself had ever dreamed Of And
yet, TO do him justice, 1t should be
written here that progress in the sci

made such strides that the task of
swinging this broad highway through
the heavens, great though it be, Is no
more difficult to the engineer of the
Twentieth century than was the feat
performed by the bridge builder of a

average lifetime. In a wilderness, though rich in coal and iron, metropolis has sprung up to become an industrial marvel, city of giant industries, of belching smokestakcs, towering buildings and handsome homes. One has only to glance back 20 years to realize the trans formation that has been wrought in Jones val ley. But for the older inhabitants who recall the earlier history of Birmingham, who walked about the streets when it was a struggling vil- lage, the change that has taken place must seem more like dream than reality.
 Birmingham takes pardonable pride III her growth and her eminence among the cities of America. It is the pride of youth and bound less confidence, for we feel here that Birmr g. ham is destined for greater things, that in the years to come there will be almost as much contrast between the city of that period and the Birmingham of today as there is between the city we have now and the little town which was born half century ago.
