ACTIVE EDUcATIoNAL WORKER

q am very much gratified to receive 50 many assurances of good wishes from my friends, following the reports that had been mentioned as possible candidate for one of the vacancies on the school board" said Al bert L. Reese.
 More than score of my friends called me over the phone and saw me at my office yesterday following the reports. I es- pecially interested in educational work, and have given my whole life to it. For nearly eight years I was principal at Elyton school and resigned to take up my present position, where I feel have a wider scope for educa- tionaI activities. l am glad if my work along these lines are meeting with the approval of my friends, and intend to continue the rest of my life in this great work"

THE VALUE OF MUSIC
From the Detroit News.

From the Detroit NeWS
 Otto H. Kahn the banker, believes in making good music available to all people. He says: q believe that much can be done by art and particularly by music, to give satisfaction to the natural and legitimate desire for getting away from the unrelieved dullness and drudg- cry, and to lead the strong impulses underly- ing it into fruitful, instead of into harmful, or even destructive channels" The power of music to influence the emotions of the ndi- vidual long has been known. The Greeks rec ognized the effects of music in the formation of character and at one time tried to prevent youths from hearing music thought to be in furious. It is well that in these modern days thought again is given to the subject. The fla cilities fo rmusc in the home are unsurpassed, music in public gathering places is common, and tho miraculous radio is broadcasting music everywhere. At such time it Is peculiarly irn- portant to emphasize the music of greatest value and of most beneficial effect. The nerves of the nations need the soothing in- fluence of harmony.

THE WINDOW WASHER
From. the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

From. the St. Louis Posi-Dispatch
 He was only window washer Youth had been spent without rewards of family or fortune. His home was a lodging house in that cheerless village of brick and grime heat and squalor east of Fourth street.-the ghost of the old St. Louis. Lfe's tints were gone except in memory. There was no promise in the drab dawns of his world ecept, perhaps, pipe of tobacco There was only that iascrutable claim of nature which says: Go or; live, work eat and be lonely-whither, wherefore, ye shall not know"
 So one he went, washing windows, tidying the world and clearing vision of those who have hope and home and company and children. And when his foot slipped upon fourth-story sill, that something within him which had said Ego on" commanded him to grasp desperately at the sash, at anything, to spare him for the enjoy ment of the lodging house roll and coffee, that evening plate of beans and avert from the sight of men and angels that bleeding tangle of flesh on the pavement below.
 It was not so to be- Nature capitulated There was nothing now to Ego on." The room at the lodging house was tenantless. Men must have tall buildings and windows must be washed. But not all window washers live in lonely rooms without youth, hope and little ones And not infrequently is there martyr dom to the cause of cleanliness. Men would not thus die if owners of buildings would pro- vide perfectly feasible measures of safety and if window-washing concerns would not gamble with lives not their own to save building owners the expense of safety.

DAVIS ACCOMPANIES COMMISSION

q went with the members of the state high way commission Wednesday an automobile trip from here to Abany-Decatur," said Charles c. Davis, president of the Automobile club. "The commissioners no doubt discov- cred that some work could well be done on the road, for near Warrior we found auto- mobile stuck in the mud. The whole width of the road at that point was covered with mud and water.
 "In Cullman we took dinner with the Ki- wanis club, and then went on to Albany, where citizens of that section working for a bridge across the Tennessee river I came back Wednesday night, but some of the com missioners planned to visit Muscle Shoals and the Tr-Cities on Thursday"

RADIO SUPPLY IS SHORT

"The radio fad has seized the country with so much speed that manufacturers are unable to turn out receiving sets fast enough to sup ply the demand" said L. A. Love. Boomers at the Y. M. c. A. recently raised funds for the purchase of first-class outfit, but we have not been able to get it yet on account of the demand being made on the manufacturers.
 "However, we have recently received as- surances that our set will be shipped soon. It will be set up in the auditorium of the Y. M C. A., so that members of the sY' and their friends may listen in on the concerts of the Alabama Power company.

wAsHERwoMAN-GovERNMENT


 Judge Wurdeman at Clayton sentenced a washerwoman to pay fine of $400 and serve sentence of eight months in jail for making and selling moonshine in order to feed and clothe her children. Subsequently the woman paroled good behavior.
 The United States government sells liquor on it's ships at sea and holds it in possession in the docks. Its bootegging agents are not molested.
 There is a difference, however, in the cases. The poor washerwoman is plain, un- privileged citizen and she sold the liquor merely to keep her children from starving whereas the United States government is privileged because it controls the enforcement officers and the judges and it sells liquor to make American ships profitable-to save them from financial ruin.
 No with any judgment will compare poor washerwoman and the saving of chii- dren from starvation with the powerful United States government and the saving of the merchant marine from financial losses. The poor citizen must be taught respect for law at any cost to the government The priv ilege of violating the prohibition law is re- served for the rich, the favored interests and the government-they above the law.

SUNSET
By Elizabeth Scollard.

By Elizabeth Scollard. Calm on the hills the sun sets like fame A great fire opal in the burning blue; Days heat dies out in cooling drops of dew And beauty that no mortal tongue may name Touches the sky as twilight's tints proclaim Nights swift approach, the hour may
 renew
 Silent communion with the One Most True And seek the Infinite Source from whence he
 came.
 A lesson that the open heart may read Is written in these fields against the sky, > For nature holds communion every hour; Unfettered she by warped distorted creed
 And man made ritual; she rises high In demonstration of Gods love and power.

CONSIDER THE GOAT
From the Nations Business.

From the Nations Business.
 Pedro Gomez sits on his little farm far in the interior of the State of Piauhy. Things have not been going we'll with Pedro, He needs a little ready money, as will happen to everyone in the Americas, whether north or south. So Pedro turns his assets into liquid capital He kills some of his goats and takes their hides down the river to Therezina to the store of Paulo Soares. Paulo is quite magnate for that part of Brazil. Goat skins come to him from several adjacent states, in canoes and water vehicles of every kind, as well as over land.
 Young MT. Greasley from Philadelphia is in Therezina, taking a postgraduate course in goat skins. Paulo is good teacher, and his pupil, Don Francisco, as Frank has become in Brazil has soon learned to discriminate among the different kinds of skins that are set before him. For the factory on Susquehanna avenue needs from 10000 to 12,000 a day, and it is but one of several in the city which William Penn founded whose lines >go out to the ends of the earth for raw material Pedro stares at the young foreigner. Why should he want to come here and bother about goats? Pedro takes his money back up the river and there is hap piness in the Gomez household
 This trade did not begin yesterday. Many a sailing vessel from 1912 onward brought the precious goat skins to Philadelphia. The cur rent has been flowing northward from Brazil, first with sail and then with steam, for long period of our business life. But where Stephen Grard or Isreal Whelen would buy 300 or 400 goat skins, their successors deal in thousands. Brazil's 10,000.000-odd goats are now one of her most valuable assets that we too often for get when We associate that sister republic with nuts and coffee

SHELLEY "A COLLECTIONS AUTHOR"

SHELLEY "A COLLECTORS AUTHOR" From "Boeks and Autograph Letters of Shell
 ley" by Henry B. Smith, in the July
 scribner's.
 have said that Shelley is pre-eminentIy a "collector's author" As man he compels inc terest because of the extremes of good and evil in his character, g combination of St. Francis and Mephistopheles. As poet whose first editions are prized, he never satiates the collector; for there is no first edition of Shel- ley that is not rare. Some works exist in 8 few copies regarding which one may always indulge in the illusion of hope. There are other books which we know he wrote and pub lished of which no copies are known. When one collects Shelley, he can always cherish the pleasing delusion that one day he may find on a bargain stall of shabby pamphlets a copy of "A Political Essay On the Existing State of Things" (1811) or "An Address To the Peo- pie on the Death of the Princess Charlotte" (181T. Stranger things have happened For many years no copy known of the "0rig- inal Poetry by Victor and Cazire,' which Shell ley wrote in collaboration with his sister Eliz- abeth. Then one was discovered bound to- gether with several other pamphlets, the vol ume containing the book plate of the Rev. Charles Grove, cousin of Sheey's. The ''Refutation of Deism," of which no copy was known until 1874, was found by Professor Dowden in perambulating book cart and bought for twopence; and-thing "to dream of, not to telp'-it Mary Shelley's copy. For collector 1t is better to be born lucky than rich. Many circumstances contribute to the rarity of Shelley first editions. Of a number of them only few were issued and in the perishable form of pamphlets, several without covers. Twenty-nine volumes and pamphlets were published or privately printed by Shelley, and two-thirds of these are among the rarest books in English literature.

"The work the city is doing in paving the streets is certainly commendable for them,' said Dr. Guy E. Snavely president of Brming- ham-Southern college.
 Eighth avenue out toward Birmingham Southern is being completed now, and am confidently looking for the city to have the work completed before fall. The completion of the street will affect practically all of the western part of the city.
