LETTERS TO EDITOR
PEOPLE SHOULD BENEFIT

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 am glad to note from the press dispatches that the people beginning to realize that Henry Ford's proposition about Muscle Shoals is not the sainted philanthrophy his propagan- dists claim, but mighty good business propo- sition-from his standpoint-by which he would get 100-proof return for volstead in- vestment.
 Recent developments in Congress should make the people look more carefully into the proposition of the Alabama Power company The Alabama Power company announces that if it is allowed to retain possession of it's own property and make suitable arrangements for the power developing extensions built by the government, it will distribute the cheap hy- draulic electricity throughout the south or so far the cables carry the current. The first cables would be hung to Mobile and New Orleans, it says.
 That is where am interested. Every town and hamlet along the line would tap the cables for the cheap hydraulic power. Every bus- ness man using power or current, and every individual would benefit. The aggregate saw ing to the various communities affected would be enormous. The saving to the gulf coast would be huge.
 This section of the country needs cheap power to develop industrially. Cheap hydrau- lie electricity in other parts of the country has developed industry; 1t stands to reason that it will here. We have been listening to economists for months telling us that we must practice every economy if we expect to stay in business, yet during the recent Ford mad, ness, we have been doing best to throw away opportunity that affects everybody in his home and place of business, simply in order that he might turn over properties, built with our tax money, to an individual for almost nothing, in order that he might de- velop some private industrial plans of his own. The people paid for the Muscle Shoals de- velopments, and the people should benefit from the investment. There is no way they can benefit well as by having cheap cleo tric current. Yours truly
 MATT HUBER.

THE EARTH's PINNACLE

From the Providence Journal.
 Mount Everest lifts its head unconquered. The most formidable expedition ever organ ized to scale rugged range, one comparable in personnel and preparation to those that have been dispatched on adventures of ex- ploration into uncharted seas, the wilderness, the jungle the polar regions, will come back after achieving what is aptly termed a glorious failure.''
 The Himalayas are the roof of the world, and Everest is it's towering pin acle. All the art of the motion picture could not reproduce the thrilling drama that has just been enacted in that setting of vast loneliness, as five or six brave Englshmen dashed themselves against those walls of rock and ice and snow; human mites crawling up the rough but tresses and scaling the preciptous parapets of natures most majestic pile. Twenty-Five thousand feet then 26,0o0, and with the aid of oxygen another heart-breaking 1,3O0-theE, battered and fatigued to the limit of endur- ance, return to the advanced camp, coun- cil of war and reluctant decision to make no fresh assault
 As it was possible to construe from the lan- guage of the message which the world received a few days ago, that an elevation "within a few hundred feet" of the summit had been reached, the end came at that time on June g.. Approximately 1,700 feet remained to be climbed. And the Asiatic monsoon had set in, summarily terminating the brief season avail able for the enterprise, six or seven weeks To attempt to resume the ascent promised only tragic rewards, and avoidable martyr dom was not in the scheme of this scientifical- ly planned campaign with an assaulting party of experienced Alpinists.
 There has been physical torture, and hard ship and peril have been challenged up to the point where further exertion could mean noth- ing but foolhardiness, The Mount Everest ex- petition has nothing to apologize for. Its sturdy climbers have trodden levels higher than man ever before gained foothold on. They have barely failed to reach the coveted ob- jective, but with new preparation based on their heroic experience, Mount Everest will some day, undoubtedly, be compelled to bow its defiant head.

LET PEOPLE UNDERSTAND IN THE BEGINNING

The Junior Chamber of Commerce has done another good thing in suggesting to the board of education that 1t call to its aid in solving the public school improvement problem com mittee of capable citizens who will make a study of the situation with an eye to the needs of the schools for period of years and pre- sent their findings to the public.
 This committee, it is suggested, should in- clude both opponents as we'll as supporters of the recent school bond proposals. The junior chamber wants a committee to investigate with an open mind, studying the burdens which bonds impose as we'll as the benefits which &C., crue from school improvement.
 Radical mistakes have been made in Bir- mingham's fiscal affairs many times because important measures have been rushed through without considering the price to be paid when the bill was presented. Others have been made because the people were not taken into the confidence of city officials. Sooner or later the people understand. The wise thing to do Is to have theisl understand in the begin ming.

ENJOYS AcE-HERALD

q always enjoy The Age Herald, and a few nights ago had the pleasure of reading Dolly Dalrymples story about her New York trip in which she mentioned Robert Winthrop Chanler of Who's Looney Now fame,' writes McIane Triton from his home in Charlottes- vile. Va, formerly of Pell City and Birming- ham.
 By coincidence I had just spent the day ert Winthrop Chanler) at Berwick (his place is called Merry Mills and had lunched with the Prince and Princess Troubetzkoy (Amelie Rives) at Castle Hill. As I get the yarn from folk on the ground, it seems that Lima Cava- leria, the opera singer, was threatening to leave Robert Winthrop Chanler (then her hus- band) but she was persuaded not to do so by his transferring all ,hs property to her. A bit later she quit anyhow, and the Whose Looney Now telegram followed from Rober 's brother, John Armstrong Chaner.
 'Why doesn't The Age Herald send Dolly on a tour of the country writing stories7 I wish this would happen, and she could come up to this historic section-Albermarle county-for there's nothing like it in all the world. Castle Hill would afford magnificent opportunity for story, for everything connected with it is the ultima thule of charm.
 "The prince is great hulk of a fellow, ar tistic and intellectual; while the princess still continues both beautiful and gracious. It is really an event to spend day with them. N"'From Castle Hill to Mirador, 35 miles on the Three Chop road, will supply plenty of inspir- ation, for here Lady Astor spent week Tn May, receiving a wonderful ovation.
 "Troubetzkoy is comin gup today I am com pleting arrangements for him to. do Dr. Bruce's portrait. His canvasses at Castle Hill are wori- ders."

WHAT PARIS MEANS TO THE WORLD

WHAT PARIS MEANS TO THE WORLD
 Muriel Harris, in the North American Review. The fairy tale of Paris belongs to all of us, in whatever terms it may be told. For some it is Marie Antoinette and the Petit Trianon and, curiousy, by comparison with a rather worthless queen, the Great war pales. For some it is Napoleon in his cooked hat and white brooches, and his great tomb one of the finger prints of Paris For still more it is the Bois and the elegance and luxury and beautiful women; and for the rest, thre is always the particular application-the house where Balzac had his printing press, or perhaps only great stone wall, symbol of the centuries, over which fruit tree blooms, symbol of centuries con- tinually renewed. I cannot think of anyone for whom there is not in Paris some answer ing chord, some link with great aggregate of humanity, which has lived and wrought and piled up history and romance and experience for 2,000 years, all under the banner of Paris.
 We look at the depth and richness and mex haustibe suggestion of the Paris background; we are grateful for it's stimulus, it's inspiration. Only now and again do we realize that Roman and Frank and Gaul; Catholic and Huguenot; artist priest and warrior; saint, martyr, phi losopher, midnette, have really our energies in their grip and that, in the continuity of history, such creation as we can accomplish is their work, their inspiration-all but that infinites~ imal fraction which is ourselves.

PROFESSIONAL BEGGARS HAVE
 NO DESIRE TO WORK

The city welfare department has refused more than 50 applications in three days from people who wanted permits to beg on the streets of Birmingham.
 The professional beggar is a nuisance, and the cit yauthorities will be commended for trying to reduce the number of these para sites Not one in hundred would do any kind of work if an opportunity were offered. They prefer to sit on the streets and gain an easy livelihood by playing on the sympathies of passers-by Many kind-hearted people, if they only knew it, are not as well off as the beggars to whom they give nickels, dimes and quarters. It is not unusual for street beggars to collect $1 ca day or more.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
 AND ELSEWHERE
HELPING A NEIGHBoR FILL IN

"Some days ago." said Mrs. J. Fred Rob ertson, q found it necessary to regutter my house. The workmen left on the lawn quah- tity of refuse, galvanized tin.
 "To my small, ebony factotum I subjected: Take the old gutters and throw them on the vacant lot across the avenue (diagonally), and automatically I experienced feltcitation-a happy thought this, helping my neighbor fill in.'
 Several hours passed; the phone rang. That bunch of tin on my lot, would you mind having it removed?
 "sCertainly notv I said to the inky black little negro, with the shining eyes and pearly teeth Take the wheelbarrow and move those gutters to the alley; tell the trash man to carry them away
 Might time; again the phone: Your man threw a lot of guttering into the tall grass back of my lot. Pm going to cut the weeds tomorrow. Will you move the tin?'
 "I surely wil.'
 "'1saac' I expostulated into the grinning face and Carolina rice teeth of my indispen- sible (vauable in their day and time) little servant, Isaac, don't you spose God sees you when you put things out O sight? Take those gutters to the end of the alley
 "Again the phone Those gutters-there's pile of them in front of my garage. We haven't had car for year. bought a new one yesterday. And would you mind, Mrs. Rob- ertson, telling me why you didn't dump that tin on your own alley?'
 q didn't know this voice, so I paused for introspection. T never thought about that l answered.
 Afterwards, when when recounting the in- cident to friend, said: I just laughed; didn't get mad
 "'Huhp he replied, your neghbors were the ones to get mad
 "But none of them did, and the refuse gut ters repose now on my alley and soon the trashman will make ancient history of a once happy thought-that of helping a neighbor fill in.'"

REVIEWS OLD ACQUAINTANCE

"Since Dr. W. R. Hendrix has been in Bir- mingham as pastor of Highlands Methodist church have read in The Age-Herald from time to time his excellent sermons, but some how I have never connected the Dr. Hendrlx who is preaching them with the Dr. Hendrix I used to know 20 years ago when he was pas tor of the North Birmingham Methodist church." said Allen M. Holt.
 Yesterday, by a coincidence, I saw Dr. Hendrix, and he came up to me and shook hands with me, and recalled knowing me a long time ago, and then I remembered that 20 years ago, when my son Marion was a baby, my family and I spent the summer at Fulton Springs, and Dr. and Mrs. Hendrix and their family were spending the summer there, too, and were our neghbors. They were splen- did neighbors too, I want to say-cordial and kind--and we enjoyed knowing them.
 "The next thing we knew Dr. Hendrix had been transferred from the Alabama conference to the Kentucky conference, and went to Louisville, and I remarked at the time that one of the best preachers Birmingham had ever had was leaving here.
 "In the meantime Dr. Hendrix has been the pastor of other large churches in Atlanta, Houston, Tex, and now back to Birmingham at Highlands Methodist where he is greatly beloved, and is doing great work. was glad to meet him again, and I shall certainly avail myself of the privilege of hearing him preach again.

STUNT FLYING THRILLING

"Stunt flying is quite as thrilling to me as to the people on the ground said Glen E. Messer, who performed nearly all the acro- battles in the aerial dictionary at the opening of the Birmingham Aero club Wednesday at the Dixie flying field.
 s'The main requisite is that man must keep a cool head and firm hold I was glad to see the large crowd out at the field both in the afternoon and evening of the Fourth. If I entertained them any then feel better my self, and if the American Legion profited by the proceeds of the exhibition feel still bet ter. People of Birmingham are quick to show their appreciation of expert flying,''

A GRAVE IN FRANCE

George L. c. Mooore in the Forum. A grave in Francey upon a wind-swept hill Once rent by shrapnel! Now the grave Of all-restoring nature clothes the place With living green, luxuriant OCT the chill Spent ashes of the dead. Joyously shrill. The lark, soaring song, floats in the space Of sunljt heaven, and there is scarce a
 trace Of wars wild tumult in scene so still. A grave in France! But darker, sadder far, The grave in hearts that gave, and, giving,
 broke
 In silence, sorrowing without surcease. And yet they know, grief-stricken as they are, That what was sown with tears mid battle
 smoke, Should spring in flowers of freedom and of
 peace.

For "age" is more generally amenabe to the laws of relativity than beauty" And time sometimes forgets himself and fingers about one who has been sweet and loving with him-to keep her beautiful.

THE WHITE CROWN
Savannah News.

From the baVannan NeWS
 At Leige in Belgium the police have had an unusual beauty contest" It is an annual event there. This year the successful and in- voluntary contestant was not a maiden of youthful beauty, not blonde of bewitching charm of person, not houri-eyed brunette with fascinating manner. She was an 80-year- old woman-a woman who has had five chil- dren and has several grandchildren. This woman of fourscore years, already crowned in white by nature, was acclaimed and crowned with flowers as the "queen of queens" by a loving, an adoring people. And why not? Ie

they venture out of their places of business, have fixed rule never to give them any thing and if others would form that resolu- tion. begging in Birmingham would cease so be lucrative profession. The deserving poo- don't parade their misfortunes before the pub lie. All welfare workers know that. The people most in need of help are the hardest to find, but the glib beggar, with bank ac- count and comfortable place to spend his nights, Is always with us.
 There are, of course, exceptions, and the city's welfare department tries to distinguish between the deserving and the undeserving, but most of the street beggars in Birmingham could be eliminated without doing violencs ~o humane instincts.
 Just recently blind man, who is brisk collector of coins, was offered an opportunity by The Age-Herald's circulation department 70 sell newspapers. He was told that he could make several dollars day. He spurned the offer and replied that he could make four or five times the same amount by begging. That type of beggar is not entitled to much sym pathy. There are many others like him in Bir- mingham,
