Juvenile DerisiOn.
You grown folks oft grow tedious
With your superior airs.
You seem to think your learned words
OF history and affairs
Bespeak a Difference for you
Which must not know alloy.
Your mien is proud and naughty
Because you're not a boy.
But you can't venture out Of doors
Without your overshoes,
Nor laugh to hear the wind that
roars;
The winters zest you lose.
And all the viands that make glad
Your youth began to cloy
Long since. You dine on mush and
milk, -.-'
Because you're not boy.
You know, perhaps, how stocks will
go,
Or how the planets move,
And must learn such things in time,
A sorry task twill prove.
So since my penance Is 80 sure
Forgive. II annoy.
BY boasting for . few short years
That I am now . oous

Dr. J. Robert Pauline, the noted French psychologist. now giving ex- hibitions at the Bijou theater. gave a demonstration to the student body of Birmingham Southern college dur ing the chapel period Wednesday morning. ~
 "The science of psychology Is in it's infancy" he said in his few re- marks. There is little we know, but we are learning more and more of the power of the mind over mat ter. We are learning more of the power of concentration, and about applying the power of suggestion The lawyer, the preacher, and the salesman are practicing this every day"
 He then placed his assistant in chair. His first action was to double the fist of the subject, rubbing the hand and forearm with an upward stroke. The color slowly left the subjects fingers and crept visibly up his wrist. During the exhibition he stated he did not remove the blood himself, but merely offered the sug- gestion so that the subject might do 1t. At the end of a few mo- ments he had members of the fac ulty to examine the arm to show that there was no pulse. The arm was cold and rigid to such an ex- tent that it supported the weight of

PARADE OF FOURTEEN AUTOS
 OFFERED BY AGE-HERALD IN BIC HELP-YOURSELF CONTEST

Whip and spur were brought into use in the Help Yourself club circu lation campaign of The Age-Herald "Wednesday, when the fourteen luXu- rious automobiles, offered as prizes, made comprehensive tour of Bir mingham to the accompaniment of band of music and Tapping baQ> ners.
 Headed by the, band in big motor truck, the four capital and ten dis trict auto awards-each the boast of a recognized manufacturer, rolled into all parts of the city, bringing their message of good fortune, hap piness and pleasure.
 The result was instantaneous.
 A number of people who saw the luxurious automobiles and thought of the S2,000 in cash awards and the $1,000 additional cash commissions to Help Yourself club members, phoned or mailed in their nomination blanks.
 From the time the procession "hopped off" on Fifth avenue in front of The Age Herald building, thousands looked on with manifest interest. Eyes everywhere, were at tracted by the Haunting banners and the band in the foremost truck did such excellent service that windows of residences and office buildings everywhere were filled with interest ed spectators.
 Plenty Of Room
 The effect of the parade was inn mediately felt, when a number of people who have been hesitating about entering their names, phoned in to say that one glance had fully convinced them that they could not reasonably do anything but get into the race. There's plenty of room for more. The list of active candidates could be doubled without depriving a candidate of an excellent opYe tunity to win.
 Now is the time for new members to come into the club and start with the rest of the field towards win ming one of the many prizes.
 The campaign is still in it's infancy. No man or woman has the advantage. Absolutely no partiality will be shown to any person in any way or at any time.
 Look Over List.
 Look over the list of candidates published today elsewhere In this issue, and you will see a wonderful opportunity of getting in now and winning. Many people listed are not doing real honest-to goodness work to win one of the prizes, and there
 
 to let dead timber''g block their path to prosperity and pleasure.
 Equal Chance To Ali.
 Every person who enters the campaign of The Age-Herald has an equal chance to win the big Cadillac Peerless, Rickenbacker or Chandler as well as one of the other ten awards. These cars range in value from S2 200 n S5Q5
 In addition to the 14 automobiles S2,0O0 in cash prizes will be awarded, and 1t is estimated that $1,000 will be paid to club members in cash com missions. All of these prizes are to be won-and can be won without ex- penditure of one cent on the part of the club members.
 In securing subscriptions to The Age Herald, every contestant gives dollar for dollar to his friends upon whom he may be calling to help him boost his club standing. You are rot asking something for nothing, as every family does or should have Dr. Pauline, who laid 1t across the back of chair and stood on it. The
