Mansions


When young he craved a mansion
grand
Surrounded by flock of land
With shade trees rare
And gardens fair
And sweet with scented flowers.
He craved a house of noble walls
And marble stairs and gilded halls
Where he could rest
From toll and quest
Amid his quiet bowers.
And so he knuckled down to toll
And gathered stocks and bonds and oil
And copper mines
And trolley lines
By Jealous concentration.
He hunted riches like hound
Until one day he paused and found
His Golfers filled
With coin to build
A stately habitation.
And now he owns a mansion grand
Surrounded by flock of land,
And shade trees grow
And flowers blow
And tinkling fountains play there
But north and south his footsteps roam
By mountain trail and tropic foam.
His house of stone
Stands bleak and lone
He hasn't time to stay there.

JEWISH LAUGHS
BY Jacob Rfchn-.n



Franz Joseph. emperor Of Aus
tria, was known as a liberal man
and an admirer of the Jewish
race, who enjoyed under his rule
complete freedom and equality.
A certain conductor on the Lem
berg -Cracow Railroad made a
practice of harassing Jewish pas
sengers by scrutinizing their tick
cts and asking them innumerable
questions.
Four Jewish travelling statesmen.
holders of annual, photographed
tickets, exchanged tickets with
each other and sat each in a diff
ferent car.
When the conductor approached
the first to punch his ticket he
noticed that the photograph bore
no resemblance to it's holder.
II got, you, 'verfluchter Jude"
he exclaimed with diabolic glee.
And confiscating the ticket he
sauntered gleefully away.
In the other car he make SINH
lar discoveries. and at the next
station he placed the four Jewish
"swindlers" under arrest and ar
raigned them before the dignita-
ries of the railroad station.
The train tarried long enough
for brief investigation.
The railroad employees made a
formal charge. and the station
master, holding the tickets, called
the defendants one by one.
Herr Moskowitz." Numbered
the angry official, you are &C
cused of defrauding the govern
ment. From whom did you get
this ticket?"
The ticket is mine, sir" re-
piled the defendant meekly.
The august magistrate com
pared the photograph with the de-
PENDANT. and to his amazement
found them strikingly alike. He
emitted an angry growl and con-
tinued:
Herr Abramowitz. you are
charged with defrauding his ma
jesty."
But to the CONSERVATION of the
conductor and the chagrin of the
station master, the picture was
the exact portrait of the ar
raigned
The officer gave the conductor
an sangry look and proceeded.
Herr Jacobson and Herr IT,
kowitz, you are both accused of
defrauding your country"
Not guilty, sir" answered the
two in chorus.
Upon examination 1t was estab-
lished that their passage, too, had
been legal.
The high railroad dignitary rose
in fury.
why don't you use your eyes?"
he roared. How dare you modest
honest citizens of the empire in
soch cruel manner. You are dis
missedr'
And you, gentlemen" he said,
turning to the defendants, you
may continue your journey, and
in the name of the emperor accept
my apologies"
sSOlen Beets
Right after a rainstorm a far
mer espied a stranger carrying a
sackful of beets from his garden.
Hey, hey, stop there" COM
manded the countryman. What
do you mean by stealing beets
from my garden?"
Il beg your pardon" said the
thief, Il would never think of
stealing anything from anybody.
When the storm broke out l ran
into the garden for shelter and
lay down under tree. The wind
was strong and whenever !
grabbed beet to keep from be-
ing blown away, the beet came
up. Then l grasped another one
for protection and the other one,
too, came up. And so on"
Very WELL" said the proprietor,
but how did they get into your
sack??"
That's a wise question to ask"
Sneered the other.

The Fundamental
(ElOrence Times\

The keystone in the educational
system of the state Is it's normal
schools, where trained teachers
are provided for the common
schools. Give the common schools
all the money. all the buildings,
all the. equipment that could be
used, and without trained teach
ets Alabama children will grow
to manhood and womanhood i'm
properly educated. Training
teachers in tents. with only money
enough for half a faculty. A. at
the Florence Normal, is not doing
justice to the children of Ala
bama, and the responsibility Of the
legislature is to the children Of
the state. not to this or that insti-
tuition. or this or that part Of the
educational system. The question
is one of fundamentals. and 1t Is
a. fundamental fact that an incom-
petent teacher cannot perform the
states duty to it's children.

A Big Achievement


The Tennessee valley rejoices
with its good friends Of Mobile and
that section in the decision of the
supreme court on the validity of
the constitutional amendment per-
hitting the state to use its credit
as a basis for s10.000,000 of bonds
of the port OF Mobile to develop
the states great seaport. Pros
perity will come. not only to Mo-,
bile. but to the whole state in the
development of the port. as will
happen in the development of
Muscle Shoals. Both will bring
about the construction Of addi-
tional railroad facilities. greater
development of the states natural
resources. and an influx Of money
from all parts Of the world. Flor
once extends congratulations to
the Gulf City.

This is ideal growing weather for
flies, and the garbage dumps are said
to be up to standard in output.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1923-06-20

1t is great system. The dumps
furnish the flies, and the flies necessi-
tate screens, doctors bills, inspections
and other expenses. 1t serves to keep
money in circulation.
The health officer says that the
people may depend on the usual sup
ply of denegue fever and malaria this
year, as nothing is being done to stop
the breeding of mosquitoes. While
mosquitoes may keep people on the
alert, their alertness is consumed in
shaping mosquitoes, which make it a
sort of endless circle.
There is no telling how many horse
power of energy the dogs of Alabama
expend each year in scratching at
fleas, but it doesn't make any differ
ence, because the energy is consumed
in a useless performance. Just like
slapping at mosquitoes, for example.

Cheer For the Farmer

\N1dAAOA SOuAly N6W8y
Mr.. Farmer. you are having a
hard time this spring with your
crop. Everything considered, you
have done well. Don't despair. We
have a great country. Those lit
tie rich bottom spots will make
good corn il planted by July 4,
if properly cultivated. And 1t will
be needed. Feed is bound to be
high next year. If there is any
certainty in past observations the
boil weevil will be rampant this
year. Cotton seed meal and hulls
may be scarce. All stubble land
planted to legume hay will come
in mighty nice. A small patch Of
sorghum close to the lot will flush
the milk flow this fall when
everything else is dried up. Sweet
potatoes can still be set out with
profit. They, too. are good feed.
The next three weeks are impor-
tant ones on the farm. Some will
improve them, too.

sEKATERINRURG, September 1S.--
Among the many American soma
teriaI visitors to Russia this year,
none made such remarkable sue
cess as did Senator King Of Utah.
He has impressed the Russian pub
If by his frankness, his transparent
honesty and his outspokenness.
sIsvestia, Meseow's great news
paper, recently satirized the multi
tNde of American visitors TO Russia
this year in a cartoon showing
long line of senators and newspaper
men arriving at the frontier The
caption read, ITO Russia, to Barbary,
With tears and fears"
Brushed Away officials.
SSenator King, from the time of
his arrival, showed that he was re-
solved to see Russia his own way.
He brushed aside waiting advisers
ahd sought out obscure but well in
Termed folk. On one occasion when
az big official inspection was arr
ranged he left his colleagues and
went on a tour of his own.
81 know what the officials will
say" he remarked
SVisitors from Cauca"ia tell the
correspondent that when Senator
ISing's party was given an official
Banquet there, and the senator was
called upon to explain, in answer to
a. toast, why America hesitated to
recognize soviet Russia, he responded:
s'When Russia restores individual
freedom, grants free speech, estab-
lishes free press-when she ceases
propaganda abroad and gives world
tfade a fair chance, we will con-
slider the matter"
Claim Press Freedom.
