Status Of Hog Killed
In Bloom OF Youth
Puzzles Court

WINCHESTER, Va, Oct. Is.
A common hog, cut off in
the bloom of youth by an auto
mobile, speeding down the Val
ley Pike, has cast the Winches-
ter magistrates court into
gloom of uncertainty.
Magistrate Tavenner is at
loss to decide whether the hog
was trespassing or was tres
passed against. The driver of
the death car testified the hog
met it's death in the middle of
the road.
The exact position of the hog
is important because the pike
divides two districts, in one of
which there is a fence law,
where animals must be kept at
home, and the other has no
fence law. If killed in the
FIRST district the hog must be
paid for, otherwise it was his

PROBLEM
Spending $5oo,o 100000 An
nuaIIy Without ResuIts-sug-
gest Birth Control.
By DAVID Nj. CHURCH,
Cosmopolitan News Service.

LONDON, Oct. 16.-England has a
riddle OF population.
With 1921 ZOO registered unem-
ployed. and perhaps close to an
other million voorhees, who are not
registered, the attention of the ma
ton is being drawn to the riddle of
population. The British govern
ment is spending approximately
the unemployed. and admittedly
this huge sum Is inadequate to pre-
vent suffering amongst those who
are without work.
The riddle of population becomes
more complex each day. as the I'M
employment figures mount. There
are two schools Of thought attempt
ing to solve this riddle.
Points to Germany.
The first school of thouaht is
that. represented by DR.. Marie
Slopes, the birth control advocate,
who declares that unless there is
restriction Of births there can not
be normal happiness and the right
for every man to live by the toll Of
his own hands.
The second school of thought Is
that represented by Sir William II.
Beveridge, director Of the London
School of Economies. who declares
that "the inference that because
there are more than million wage
earners not absorbed by industry
there are too many wage earners is
natural, but unjustified."
Germany said Sir William, ''de.
feated in war, has been compressed
within narrower limits, has lost its
shipping and foreign investments,
it's outlets for emigration and trade.
and now by high birth rates is re.
pairing with exceptional speed the
human loses. OF the war.
Problems Not Solved.
Germany may or may not be suf.
fering from over-population. She
employment; she has had a boom
stimulated by initiation OF the cur
rency.
1--WE see, on the other hand,
Britain, victorious in war, with ex-
panded territories and the world
open to her, pursuing a different,
no doubt a better currency policy,
and experiencing unexampled an.
employment. To argue uncritica1ly
from unemployment to over-popula-
ton is to ignore the elements of
both problems.
Perhaps the war checked our
maternal progress, but at the worst
our industrial rank was only chal-
lenged, not destroyed. Forgetting
some of the slackness of our easy
days, we might through science and
system and industrial peace win a
new lease of rapid progress. In that
direction lies our remedy: in that,
rather than in Fastening the proc
ess of birth restriction"
While the two schools of thought
debate England's riddle of popula-
ton remains-the riddle of two
million unemployed workers.

START MOVEMENT TO HONOR, OLD TEACHERS
Plan Of Prof. J. C. Tidwell Is Copied Elsewhere
 TENNESSEE VALLEY BUREAU,
 THE AGE-HERALD
Albany-Decatur. Ala .Junc 2

z J
 The movement inaugurated in this county, by Prof. J. c. Tidweu, former county superintendent of education. to honor the memory of some of the pioneer educators, has found response in several other communities in the state and news was received here this week of plans for programs in more than one slo- cality. similar to the one rendered in Hartselle In honor of the early teachers of the old Danville school Prtfessor Freeman and Professor Nash.
 At the Hartselle meeting per- manent organization was perfected to perpetuate the memories of the two distinguished men who started so many prominent people of today in their educational paths.
 In the ancient schoolhouses of scores of Alabama communities were started the careers of men who later gave much to the progress and achievements of the state. As one of the former pupils of the old Dan- vile school remarked, the students who achieved renown have but re- flected the early teachings of the old schoolmasters. It is but fitting that the lives of the latter should be honored. Teaching classes in one little building, frequently at a very skimpy salary. was not the easiest means of livelihood in those days, but fortunately for our civilization of today. the teachers of yester- year stuck to their tasks and their sacrifices should not be forgotten"

 With the publication of the last re- port of the Anniston National in April it was shown that time deposits had increased to S604,602.30 over the Sep tember report to the comptroller of the currency and that its deposits had gone from S1,527, ,56360 to S1,94S,- 214,50 in the same period of time. The April report issued by the An niston National showed that 1t had in it's vault on April 3 and with other banks the amount of $362.S19.45.
 Commercial National reported in September of 1922 that it had depos- it's amounting to s554, ,459.73, and the April, 1923. report showed that they had increased during that time to s757,S04.46. Savings accounts at the Commercial National last Septemb CT were s203,S12.O1 and in April they hAd gone to $264,110.22.
 September conditions as reported by the City Bank and Trust company showed that deposits were S179,176 at that time and that they had reached the figure of s274,195.45 by the time the last report was issued in April. The savings accounts at this bank have grown in the three-quar- ter-year period to $123,643.26

 The railroad and the city had trou- ble sometime back over paving the intersection of north Appletree and west Powell streets.
