a Day by Day Job

lects or despises no detail and who builds his life road
constantly and insistently with little deeds well done.
Measure the deeds of any great man and you will find
his achievements have grown out of an experience of
doing the small things with patience and painstaking
fidelity.
The man Of moral courage does not reach his moral
mower by one full leap; it is a matter of road-making;
he acquires his moral strength step by step.
The architect who conceives the great cathedral or
the monumental tower has first learned to use the
T-square and the sweep; he has learned the mathemat-
ical laws that govern the stress and distribution of
weight; he has built his road step by step and over it
he has reached the thing of strength and beauty.
The road that is without a firm foundation is not the
road of an enduring civilization. Soft clay carries no
commerce. The road of least resistance is the road
that retards progress,-that holds back the traveller
who would use it. Each day we lay the foundation for
the road we are to travel tomorrow.
LIES prizes are not gifts; they are goals; they must
be won: we must build the road over which we are to
pass to reach them.

Every man is a road-maker. He builds the road over
which he himself is to travel. If he is careless and
insincere his road will be poorly made and he will find
himself stalled in the soft mud Of Indifference. TT he
be sincere and diligent he will make a highway over
which he can travel far.
The Ancient Romans built, with much labor. the fam
GUS Appian Way. To do this they laid end to end great
heavy, fiat stones. Time shifted the great blocks of
the Appian Way they were not laid upon a strong
bed of little stones.
Many centuries later a Scotchman by the name of
McAdam found a better way to build an enduring road.
MeAdam accepted for his road only very little stones
stones that would slip between his thumb and first fin
ger. The little stones could shift, they could settle and
as they shifted and settled the "macadam' road became
frmer and better.
The life road-maker who makes surest of his fnture
lays his road bed in daily deeds of good rather than by
seeking only to lay down the large blocks of ambitions

most to life is the man who sees the good in little

BROUGHT FROM DALLAS
Man Who Jumped Bond Said To BE
Deserter From Navy

S. E. Goad. city detective, returned
bringing with him Charles j., alias
Carl j. Wheeler, an alleged deserter
from the United States navy, and
wanted here in Birmingham on four
bond forfeitures, two of which are
three years old.
During the month of February
1921. Wheeler was arrested by city
officers on charges of driving a car
without brakes and with reckless
driving. He was tried and found
guilty in recorders court at the time
and appealed both cases. Later he
is alleged to have jumped bonds and
enlisted in the navy.
A short time ago he came back to
arrested by Sandifer and Eddins on
charges of speeding and reckless
driving. Bond was furnished by a
local bonding company and he was
released. He did not show up for
trial, it is alleged, and hunt for
him was started by the bonding
company. Last week he was located
in Dallas and authorities were asked
to hold him pending arrival of an Of
ficer from Birmingham
While the hunt was being carried
on for him information was re-
ceived at police headquarters that
he was a deserter from the navy and
instructions were issued that he be
held for naval authorities. Wheel
er's residence is given as 4022 Hunts
willie road. Brighton.

MAY IMPLICATE MEN
IN ONE OF AK CASES
Claim Three Negroes Held Had
Robbery As Motive

Detectives Investigating the long
string of ak murders in Birmingham
are counting the second round with
Tuesday afternoon and their subse
quent examination at police head
quarters. AS the result of this move
it is expected that a charge of n-ur-
der Will be filed against the three
Friday morning and the negroes
transferred to the county Jail to
await trial. Police officers in charge
of the investigation declined to make
any announcements yet because Of
certain evidence that they wish to
obtain before so doing. However,
they claim the crime for which the
three are being held was committed
with robbery as the motive and also
involved negro woman who was
badly battered over the head with the
ak at the time of the attack on a
white man.
Soon after her recovery of con-
seriousness at the Hillman hospital
after the attack she gave a fairly
good description of the negro ak
wielder and on her ability to remen.-
Der the attack the officers depend
largely to identify the assailant. One
of the negroes now held in custody
fills the general description as given
by the woman while in the hospital.
County officers working on the
Sparks case are marking time since
the third witness was found to iden-
THY Glover as negri seen leaving
the vacant lot on or about TIRE time
the attack was committed on Mrs.
Sparks. In the meantime they claim
that further evidence is being Sc
cured that may implicate him in
other crimes of similar nature COM
mitted in recent weeks.
