Boosters Story

I'd rather be boos.er than knocker,
For a booster is always gay,
And his smile brings back the sun
shine
The Knockers frown took away.
What's the use of growing, it won't
bring
You either wealth or fame,
And whether you smile or frown the
world
Goes on just the same.
You would soon forget the mud
Beneath your feet
If you wear boosters smile,
for everyone you meet.
If you see a filthy waste pipe,
Smile at it as joke,
But do your duty as citizen,
And report it to DR.. Folk.
What is the use Of knocking,
There is nothing YOU can gain,
For Alexandria isn't the only place
Where they have snow and rain
The council men are doing
The very best they can,
And the best is all you can except
From any mortal man.
We all admit that Alexandria
Has few streets that are bad.
But the city council don't possess
The lamp Aladdin had.
If council paved those little
Muddy tracks
The knocker'd be the first one
To kick about the tax.
Today he kicks because he finds
A muddy street;
Next summer he will Kick because
No shade trees protect him from
the heat
You will find the kicker
No matter where YOU go,
With his frown and little
Tale of woe.
The pessimist and GROWER,
All they do is kick.
They say let's get together, but
THEY'RE the kind that never stick.
We all have met the kickers,
Who are filled with care and strife,
And I have often wondered
What pleasure they got ont OF life
When the booster meets difficulty he
Smiles as only booster can,
And goes to work and tries to
Overcome it like man.
When it is showing he doesn't kick
Because the weather's bad,
He thinks Of the heat last summer
And smiles, for it makes him glad.
In the summer when the old GROWER
Kicks about the heat,
You'll still find smile upon the face
Of every booster that YOU meet.
So why not stop kicking and frowning,
For it never was worth while,
And join the line Of boosters,
And always wear a smile.

COTTON OF LONG
 STAPLE FOUND BY
 ALA. FARM BUREAU
Most Cotton Above MiddIing. Banks Lend Money to Bu- reau-Prices Buoyed.
 Nitrate Bought

Montgomery. october 14-(Spe- cial. l.)-Through expert grading the Alabama Farm Bureau Cotton asso- citation has found 142 bales of long staple cotton in the shipments of short cotton handled to date by the organization this season. Based on quotations of October 5, this repre- sents an additional S4.s90 which. otherwise, the farmers may or may not have received.
 Out of 19,462 bales graded this fall only 1885 are below middling in grade. Heretofore, before the ad- vent of the association. cotton was generally bought as "middling," and the grower informed by the buyer if the grade did not show that good. Other information as to grade was not always given. The grading showed 2,579 bales of good middling; s,413 of strict mid1ling, and 6,63S of middling. Other grades showed in- significant figures in the total. This does not represent total bale receipts.
 Alabama's banks have furnished all money used by the association so far. The organization has credit of $1,0OO,o00 with a New Orleans bank, and $S,oo0,ooo available from

absolute powers, but those he has are sufficient to make the choice ifn- portant. They are less, of course, than President Harding 8, but quite as great as those of most European presidents of republics. The Presi- anything he deems bad but can eX- ereise posistive influence On the whole management and spirit of the republic if he possesses the right personality.
 Reasons for the indifference are many. The German nation always has been the easiest to rule but 1t should not be despised for this. It's efficiency in scientific. industrial and artistic work, which after all deter mine Q nations fate, can still, under most unfavorable conditions, com pete with all others. but the eXagger- ated respect for persons in authority has survived the Kaiser's fall. Sec ondly. the Germans have repeatedly been told their misery was due sole ly to the malice of foreigners and that fortune can return only with foreign policy, and any help Is i'm possible under the malicious pres sure of the war Nletors.
 Depreciation of Mark
 That is false, but readily believed by people whose political instinct. never highly developed, now is blunted by the struggle with every day miseries. Foreigners, however sympathetic. cannot realize how de- moraliZing is the fact that the 1000 mark note. which formerly kept u family comfortable for two months. now is insufficient to buy shirt or S pair of theatre tickets.
 Thirdly. the idea has been implant- ed that for tactical reasons the pres idency must go to social democrat, and if social democrat, why not Ebert? This Heidelbergs tallors son. saddler, eX-editor of small pa per. inn-keeper, party secretary Is popular among the bourgoise. After violent speeches against repression laws and rule he az president calmly pulled the flag of the ideallst from It's pole.
 Under his presidency thousands of workmen and republicans have been shot and imprisoned while the mon archist plotters are untouched. The principle of equality before the law has been infringed and special Jurisprudence invovled for attacks and islander against the President, the ministers and deputies. Even the Kaiser did not dare make special laws to protect himself.

ly there Is rejoicing that it has been averted, although, truth to tell, 1t never was imminent. Moreover, the opposition developing in London against Lloyd George strengthens the Paris legend that Poincare ob- tained a great triumph over his Brit ish colleague, which Is ridiculous since the French policy has finished by placing the Dardanelles exclusive ly under British control.
 BIames Lloyd George
 It Is astonishingly paradoxical that French opinion Is gleeful over the return of the Turk to Europe. That joy will not last. In England Lloyd Georges undoubted blundering has made the Near Eastern question a battle ground of parties enabling a coalition of the opponents of the premier. The latter seemed to think the situation serious enough to break the silence, and other party leaders are taking the platform to de- bate the merits of the ease. The Christians In Thrace. even at the Straits, are forgotten in the party fracas. It is not the first time Tn England and elsewhere that party strife takes priority over national in- test.
 It Is impossible to overestlmate the extreme gravity of the events now unfolding. Not alone is victory cancelled on one of the wars great est battlefields after only four years; not only is it wonderful en- couragement for the Pan Germans and the Pan-Slavs who dream of revenge, but according to the later agreements we now have the same territorial situation which provoked all Balkan wars whose effect on European policy is only too well known.
 When the Turks and Christians clash in Macedonia war is inevitable and it is curious that the French papers ignore this truth taught by long experience. Added to this is the Russian danger, for the soviets, like the Kemalists and Germans, have territory to reconquer to efface the peace which they never have recog- nized. The Paris and Mudania agreements have prepared some fair tomorrows for us

Friends Start Boom to Make Him Party
 Standard Bearer in 1924
Former Secretary of Treasurer Said to Have Largest Personal Following in Nation-Supporters Believe He Could Rebuild Demo
 cratic Campaign Machine

nee holders, 10 man. were for Me- Adoo, and if he had been nominated. there Is no doubt but that they would have welded together an effective political organization in little or no time With the nomination of Gov ernor Cox, however, even the sem biance of national organization fell to pieces. Cox toured the country from one end 10 the other but in none of his travels did he run across even the wreckage of the democratic machine. It had been total loss, sunk without trace.
 Rebuild Machine
 Already, it is being argued by the MeAdooites, that Mr MeAdoo alone of fhe available democratic material is in position to rebuild the na- tional machine and wage an effective fight against the well oiled repub- lican machine. The McAdoo adher- euts say that Governor Cox has no national following; that he had no opportunity 10 build up a national following such as Mir. McAdoo had as head of the treasury department and as director general of railroads dur ing the term of government con- troi and operation.
 While it is true that Governor Cox iiiR9 hOL hdNt Nio lOliOW ing attributed to MT McAdoo, he, nevertheless, has many warm and influential personal friends who all ready are taking cognizance of the McAdoo moves and getting ready to combat them.
 MeAdoo boosters expect former President Wilson to place his influ- ence behind his son-in-law, although in the same breath they say there will be no crown prince" cry against Mir. McAdoo in 1924.
 These same boosters point to the fact that although Governor Cox re- turned recently from Europe. where he went to investigate the operation of the League of Nations and Euro pean conditions in general, Woodrow Wilson has expressed no desire to see or talk with the democratic stand ard bearer in 1920. It is said the former President resents the effort in some quarters to regard Governor Cox as the leader of the party today.
 The McAdoo boom will be we'll financed from the start.
