Word comes from Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Glasgow that they have re-
turned from their honeymoon spent
visiting several places of interest on
the coast, and have taken the home
of the groom's mother for the winter.
The latter will leave soon to spend
several months visiting in Wyoming
and on East. She will soon be in
Hanna where she will visit her dau-
ghter, Mrs. John H. Cook.
The D. o. o. X. Club had a dance
last Saturday evening at the Opera
House. It was a very pleasant and
delightful affair. and all present re-
port having a wonderful time.
A new club is being formed in
Hanna. 1t will be known as the
Kluck-Kluck Khan. 1t is q secret
society. and while its reason for ex-
listing is serious enough. its primary
object is pleasure, to give pleasure,
and take pleasure. At least that Ia
what we r given to understand.

room will relieve the congestion in
that room. At the rate at which the
South Side is growing and the way
the enrolment is steadily increasing
in that school, 1t will be necessary
next year to have four teachers in
that school the same as at the East
and West Schools at present.

There have been so many inquiries
regarding the rule for the exclusion
from school of children having COM
m%unicable diseases that 1t is given
here as a matter Of information. The
School Board has endorsed and
adopted the law safeguarding the
health Of school children. which pro-
vides that children having contagious
infectious Or communicable diseases
be excluded from school until they
bring a written statement OF COM
plete recovery from the Health Of
ficer or his agent (the family ply
sician), the same rule to apply
where doubt exists as to the child's
condition.
This ruling rigidly adhered to will
lessen the danger Of contagious or
communicable diseases getting start
ed in the schools and possibly re-
sulting eventually in an epidemic.

After many attempts to expel
young Dan Cupid from the Hanna
schools. the local school board has
given 1t up as a useless task and has
thrown up it's hands in despair. The
latest victim of this young scamp's
mischief is Miss Ruth Henderson,
primary teacher, a beautiful spark
ling diamond now wrinkles from the
third finger of her left hand, and
h bl~ushingly admits that with the
coming OF spring she will forsake the
ranks of maidens, and become Mrs.
Marvin Alexander. Mr.. Alexander Is
a prominent young rancher OF the
northern part of the state, and the
young couple will make their home
on the ranch which is a short dis
lance from Newcastle. Miss Hender-
son has taught in the Hanna schools
Just this year, but in the short time
she has been here she has made
many warm friends. who tho they
wish her all happiness and good luck,
are sincerely sorry to know that she
will not be here another year. Mr..
Alexander visited here during the
Christmas holidays. Miss Hender-
will be the second teacher to
marry this year Miss Esther Hagert
having left a month ago to marry
Mr.. Jack Fry of Cheyenne.

FEE SYSTEM OF FEEDING

The fee system of feeding prisoners Is
system under which the sheriffs are paid
fees in round sums for each prisoner
out of which sum such amount as they may
see fit goes to feed the prisoner and such
profit as they may see fit comes to them
selves. The system was in operation in this
state prior to 1919 and the evils resulting
from it were condemned. In 1906 DIR. Shir-
ley Bragg, physician at the penitentiary, said
that, in receiving prisoners from the county
jails, it was common to see men who were
physical wrecks and on the verge of collapse
from want of nourishment. In 1916 DIR.
w. c. Oates of the penitentiary staff, char
acterized the fee system which was still in
vogue as "damnable" And in 1922 DIR.
c. H. Smith, long employed as physician at
the pententiary and as physician inspector,
pointed to the contrast, as shown in the con-
dition of the prisoners, under the fee sys-
tenn abandoned three years before, and un-
der the present system which was In opera
ton at the time of his communication.
After the abandonment of the fee system
the prisoners from the county jails were no
longer weak and anemic or had their bodies
affected with ulcers. Under the present sys-
tenn the prisoners are getting better food,
the lack of which had caused those unspeak-
able bodily conditions which meant that star
walton itself was close at hand. And while
the prisoners were being weakened, mentally
as well as physically, many Of the sheriffs
put in their pockets much Of the money that
should have gone for the prisoners food
That is situation the people would not see
return.

COMPETITION IS ACTIVE

In competition with Alabama steel mills
a. Carnegie Steel Company towboat has de-
livered cargo of 3,400 tons of steel from
Pittsburg mills to New Orleans. The ulti-
mate destination of this steel is Dallas,
Houston and other Texas points already
served by Birmingham mills.
This renders it of extreme Importance that
the Warrior river and Mobile harbor each
have facilities increased for handling the
business of Alabama mills at low-cost trans
portation by water. What is true of steel
and iron mills applies to corn and cotton as
WE'LL Immense quantities of grain have
been flowing to the gulf at New Orleans by
the Mississippi river barge line and cotton
from Memphis down has also had low-cost
export outlet through that means. Alabama
stands handicapped by reason of lack of
equipment and unfair division of through
rates on the Warrior, and her port is i'll need
of the facilities which the port of New Or
leans has received through state aid The
Warrior and Port of Mobile are standing
Alabama opportunities to meet competition
and they are standing obligation of the
people of Alabama to support them until
they are equipped to serve as each is capa-
BILE of doing. The rest of the world is not
asleep. Alabama must be continuously busy
about her inland waterways and her port
if she would keep abreast of her competitors.

might be more in keeping with the grandeur
Of royalty than to undergo public exhibit
ton like wax-works or a petrified Indian,
but the Egyptians can hardly be expected
to show much reverence for rulers who have
been dead for thousands of years. 1t IS
stated that in all the tombs of the Theban
burial area only one royal mummy remains
on view in its original resting place, that of
Amenophis II, whose successor, Amenophis
Ill, built the temple of Luxor. His exploits
are recorded on the Louvre obelisk in Paris.
Since Egypt has already contributed relics
of its antiquity to most of the museums and
private collections in the woodland it is
a poor museum, indeed, that does not con
tain royal mummy-it seems only fair to
hotelkeepers, tradesmen, guides and others
who profit from tourists, that TutankhameD
be left where he can be of substantial bene-
fit to his fellow countrymen.

STATE NORMALS DESERVE HELP

The normal schools of Alabama have SUBJ
stantial foundation for their plea for more
generous financial support. stream may
not be expected to rise higher than it's
source; neither may teachers be expected
to rise higher than their training and educa-
ton permit them. The efficiency with
which children are taught depends upon a
number of factors. Training is not the only
factor that enters into a teachers success,
nor indeed the most important factor.
Personality is that. But teacher naturally
gifted is UNNECESSARILY better qualified by
proper normal training than she could ever
hope otherwise to be. Naturally, also, the
requirement of certain amount of training
would eliminate the unfit and the unambi-
tious, for they would be weeded out during
the normal period. Since the state spends
so many millions on public education, GER
tainly it will be justified in appropriating
a few thousand more towards making the
instruction more effective.
Statistics show that, of the 1000 teach
ers in the public schools, 100000 have never
gone beyond the seventh grade and only
100000 have ever gone more than two years
beyond the eighth grade. In other words,
a great percentage Of teachers in the United
States have not reached high school, and only
a very small proportion have completed the
high school course. To be sure, this is not
taken to mean that the education of the
teachers has stopped with their withdrawal
from school attendance for there are scores
of thousands who painstakingly devote them
selves to various study courses throughout
their professional lives. Nevertheless, the
lack of normal training cannot fail to have
its effect upon the average results attained
in training the children of the land. There
fore, there is ample ground for increasing
the teachers opportunity for professional
training and instruction. 1t is believed that
normal schools furnish the best opportunity
for such training, even when supplementary
to college education.

JAPAN PROCESSES GOOD FAITH

Japan, by her conduct during and after
the Washington arms conference, has done
much to dissipate suspicion of her motives,
and her statesmen are justified in saying
that the relations that now exist beween
the United States and Japan are on surer
foundation. If nothing else had been &C
complished by the conference, the fact that
it brought about a better understanding
among the world powers, especially the
United States, Great Britain and Japan,
would have made it worth while. In recent
addresses Premier Kato and Count Uchida
both expressed qualification over the Wash
ington agreements and gave renewed as
suranees that Japan was determined to carry
out their provisions in good faith. Discuss
ing naval limitations, Premier Kato stated
that tout of respect for the spirit of the
treaty, Japan has proceeded toward putting
its provisions into effect, thus demonstrat.
ing her sincerity" He said that the surplus
revenue resulting from naval limitation
would call be devoted to measures more in
keeping with the times" Count Uchida
expressed similar views, emphasizing the
Importance in which Japan held the arms
conference and the value she placed on the
friendship of America and Great Britain.
The promptness with which the measures
were ratified by Japan last August offered
additional proof of her desire to maintain
world peace. However unsettled conditions
in Europe may be at present, the mutual
attitude of the three principal powers is
reassuring. In the event that France and
Italy fail to ratify the conference agree
ments, the Japanese government declares
that an understanding has been reached by
the United States, Great Britain and Japan
regarding steps to be taken" The example
set by these major powers looking to
peace cannot fail to have salutary effect
on other nations.

TO CURE THE TUBERCULAR

tuberculosis is still the scourge of the
world. More people suffer and die from It
than from any other disease. Science has
made great strides in mitigating its terrors,
but scientific treatment prescribes its own
conditions. Such conditions can be met,
first of all, only by the provision of proper
environment for the patient, such as for
the many can be obtained only in public
hospital for the treatment of tubercular
cases. Birmingham has no adequate place
of this kind. The Red Mountain santarium
where, for the present, some thirty-five suf-
ferers from this disease are now being cared
for by the city and county, is said to be
wholly inadequate. It is necessary to build
a sanitarium For the one which has been
planned at Ketona, the city and county each
has appropriated twenty thousand dollars
for maintenance. This was done, it is
said, on the promise of committees from va
rious civic organizations to conduct CAM
paign to raise the necessary funds to erect
a building. There is no health work more
urgent and important than the care of suf-

THE SOUTH AND SHIPPING
Washington Post)

AS the time approaches for de-
finite legislative action on the ao-
ministraulon's Shipping program,
the south is beginning to be heard
from. The maritime interests OF
that section are commencing to real
ize the meaning of aid to the mer-
chant marine as affecting them.
FROM the start of agitation for
such aid, this has been seif-evident.
Shipping is national problem, and
to the extent that the south is con-
cerRed in it to that extent is pro-
motion OF. the merchant marine as
provided Tor by the pending bill to
It's interest. Politics, as lnterpre-
ted by certain democratic leaders
from the south, may urge opposition
to the shipping bill, but the best in
terests OF the maritime elements of
that section urge its support. The
increasing demand for enactment of
the pending measure that is coming
from that quarter should drive home
to the representatives on whom sucn
demand is made the need for favor
able action at the earliest oppor-
tunity.

OUR UNOFFICIAL OBSERVER

The bellgerent senate has won> another
technical victory over the state department.
Secretary Hughes informs the foreign rela-
tions committee that Roland w. Boyden,
unofficial observer with the Preparations
commission, has been instructed not to COM
ment on proposals before the commission
and to make no suggestion unless authorized
by the state department. This is just an
other illustration of the awkward position IN
which the administration finds itself as a
result of its nebulous foreign policy. Mr..
Boyden has been charged with talking too
much. The lame explanation that he was
expressing his own views and not those of
the state department did not mend matters.
Europeans, who do not understand our
methods Of government, and particularly
the frequent clashes between congress and
the administration over foreign affairs nat
urally supposed that Mr.. Boyden as the
American representative was speaking for
the American government. That is the dis
advantage of being an unofficial observer
who is expected to accomplish results by in
direct methods, but occupies such an equivo-
cal position that he hardly knows where he
stands.

NO HALT TO PORT PLANNING

In line with the desire to permit no avoid
able delay In developing Alabama's seaport
at Mobile, it is reported that the legislature
will be urged to pass the administration bill
giving the governor the right to call directly
upon the supreme court to pass on the con-
stitutionality of legislation proposed or en-
acted. Such measure would make it pos
sible to obtain an immediate decision as to
the authority of the state to issue bonds for
development called for by the seaport
amendment. If the opinion is favorable the
bonds will be readily marketable. 1t ap-
pears to be the opinion, doubtless based on
high legal authority, of those charged with
the responsibility of carrying out the plans
that the amendment gives the requisite au-
thority. As has been said, the people have
conferred upon the state the moral right to
proceed with this development. The men,
bers of the state harbor commission give
assurance that they are proceeding with
their plans, and predict that by the time
the plans are complete all legal obstacles
will have been removed 1t is hoped that
this assurance will be verified by the out
come.

ALABAMA's FINE MARBLE

Further investment in the Talladeea mar
BILE field has been made by Pittsburg CAPT
talists headed by Sgnor Moretti, the emil
nent sculptor, who several years ago declared
the Alabama marble product the equal Of
the finest Italian, and has shown his faith
by continuous operation Of quarries in that
field. The bringing in of electric power,
said Signor Moretti, will serve to facilitate
expansion of the industry, which he believes
will be one of the states most important:
ones under encouragement of new and more
favorable quarrying conditions There s
no question of the quality of the Sylacauga
marble. Economy of quarry operation has
been the only problem. With that cared
