JOURNALISM BIG FIELD

"There is no field open that looks so big to me as the field of journalism said Frank B. Embry, mayor of Pell City and candidate for the state legislature of St. Clair county.
 While journalism is work of high calling, especially if the degree of success is perma- nent, it offers the biggest field of any pro- fesson that I know of being open, and the young man with talent in this line seems to be making mistake in not taking it up.'

CROSSING THE BAR

CROSSING THE BAR By Alfred Tennyson. Sunset and evening star
 And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar, When I put out to sea. But such tide as moving seems asleep, Too full for sound or foam. When that which drew from out the boundless
 deep
 Turns again home. Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell, When I embark; For from out the bourne of Time and Place The flood may bear me far, hope to see my Pilot face to face When have crossed the bar.

 untimely death will bring widespread regret.
 Selma Times-Journal: News of the sudden death of E. ". Barrett, editor and publisher of the Birmingham Age-Herald, stricken in the prime of life and growing usefulness, is but another one of those tragedies which leave one bewildered at the mysterious ways of Prov idence. For nearly quarter of century Mr. Barretts interests and labors have been identified with the state in a large and con- structive way, his work growing continually in demands upon his ability which he dis charged to the last with high credit.
 Although he never sought active service in the field of politics, number of honorary positions were conferred on him, and his zeal for the public good always ran high and strong. Under the nom de plume ."Ned Brace" he dis cussed current affairs in the Sunday editions of The 2Age-Herald, giving frank and unre-: strained statement of his views and impress sions and intimate insight into his own wig orous personality. His comrades of the press will be saddened at the news of his going, and the whole state, whose progress and up- building he did much to quicken and sus- tain, will join in paying tribute to one of her most useful men.
 Montgomery Journal: In the death of Edward Ware Barrett, Alabama has lost one of its ablest journalists, one whose reputation was not simply statewide, but nationwide, and he had the esteem and friendship of a large circle of friends.
 He was trained newspaper man, getting his first lessons at the case, and gradually, by his rare gifts as a writer and forsight and judg- ment as business man, was at his death the owner and editor of one of the souths lead ing daily newspapers, and his passing will cre- ate vacancy that none but Ed" Barrett, as his intimate friends called him, could fill.
 MT. Barrett was of nervous temperament, and his sudden death, while shock 70 his friends was not surprise to those who knew him we'll and intimately, He was a thought ful and thoroughly informed, but what some might say, a cynical publicst, and cultivated and ncisive writer. Indeed, his style as a writer was peculiarly fresh, bold and trenchant and secured for him the highest honors in the profession which he loved and which he honored.
 This estimate of Mr. Barrett and tribute to him is by one who has known nim as a jour- nalist for nearly 30 years, and recognized him as an honest, upright man, who had peculiar gifts and laudable ambition to succeed in profession of which he had cause to be proud having met with such full measure of success in his life work,

 there as it was by MT. Barrett, editor of The Age-Hera1d, and his co-worker and long time friend, the late Rufus N. Rhodes, head of the Birmingham News. Though engaged in gen. erous professional rivalry, these two men stood as one touching any policy involving security of the social order, protection of life or prop erty, sound civic conscience, intelligent ad- ministration of public affairs.
 Anniston Star: Newspaper men throughout the United States will lament the passing of Edward Ware Barrett, editor and publisher of the Birmingham Age-Herald, whose tragic death was announced over the wires Sunday night and Monday morning. He passed out suddenly while swimming in the pool at the Roebuck Country club, and the news of his death came as distinct shock.
 Mir. Barrett was one of that outstanding number of newspaper men who regard their calling as profession, and he was loyal al- ways to the ethics of the profession. His news columns were always clean and his editorial columns were fair Indeed, in his great desire to do justice to all men he sometimes sacri- feed certain force that his paper might have possessed.
 There was another outstanding character stic for which MT. Barrett was noted-his loyalty to those who worked with him in the making of great paper. In sickness and in other adverse circumstances he stood by them to the last, and there were few in- stances in his career in which his confidence was misplaced That same characteristic, too was expressed in his associations with men out side the newspaper office, and few men in Birmingham. numbered stronger personal friends than "Ned Brace" He was genial hos ptable and generous, and he was loved of many.
 Mir. Barrett was national committeeman from the state of Alabama, and in addition to the place that will be left vacant in his editorial chair the democratic party will be

 Gadsden Journal: In the death of Edward Ware Barrett there has passed one who had made his mark among the editors of the south. In his quarter century service with that pun- hcation, he had brought it from small daily to be one of the south's greatest parers.
 In sense, MT. Barrett might be classed as one of the old school of editors whose names were equally as well known as those of their newspapers. Whenever thought of The Age-Herald, he naturally thought of Ed Ear rett.
 Alabama owes the departed editor debt for his work in making known and in devel- oping the great resources of the state But especially is Birmingham indebted to him. where his labors covered period of that eitvs magic growth. He has had no small part in that development.
 The press of Alabama also has sui -ered a loss, for MT. Barrett was a prominent figure at the meeting of newspaper men. His death has made vacant place which will be lard to fill.
 Huntsville Times: The press and the whole of Alabama mourns today because of the sud den death last night of E. w Barret, editor and publisher of the Birmingham Age. Herald Details of MT.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
 AND ELSEWHERE
AFTER AZ YEARS

T read and interesting account of unique event in the life of Gen. Robert L. Bullard the other day." said Thomas Bragg. General Bullard was a student at Auburn college AZ years ago. He lived in that vicinity and rode a little Texas pony to school, distance of 12 miles. In his finishing year he received a telegram one day to effect that he had won an appointment to West Point.
 "Of course, he was in hurry to get home with the good news. He kept his pony in stall in the stable of Dr. J. H. Drake, and there also he daily hung the linen duster which he wore to and from school to protect his clothes. In his hurry he forgot the duster.
 "Later the negro in charge of the stable discovered the duster and turned it over to Mrs. Drake. She had it cleaned and laid 1t away for reclamation. That came about AZ years later when General Bullard was recently in Auburn in interest of the Auburn endow ment fund now being raised.
 Passing up the street, General Bullard saw Mrs. Drake and she saw him. Mrs. Drake recognized him in spite of the years and cheer. fly called out to him, T guess you have come back for that linen duster, Bob.'
 "It was an affectionate reunion. Both Dr. Drake and his beloved wife are still in Au- burn. Dr. Drake has been the college physi- clan for almost half century and has never missed roll call or lost patient in his care. He is the most beloved of the landmarks at the Alabama Polytechnic"

BEAUTIFUL FEATURE OF SERVICES

"A beautiful and striking feature of the services held for the late Edward W. Barrett, editor of The Age-Herald, was the tolling of the chimes at Highlands Methodist church as the funeral procession passed on it's way to Elmwood cemetery" said J. L. Drennen.
 "The toling of the bells, and the chiming of the hymns Abide With Me and Till We Meet Again. were very impressive and solemn. It was tender tribute to the memory of one of Birmingham's best beloved citizens when the pastor and the membership of Highlands Methodist church sent their message of condo lence through the beautiful chime, last low ing token of affection to the man who had always been staunch friend of this church."
