LOOKING BACK 100 YEARS

In late April or early May 100 years ago, the first
steamboat on the upper Mississippi made its maiden
trip 1t went from ST Louis to Fort st. Anthony now
Fort Smelling Mimi. 1t experienced real difficulty IN
navigating the Rock Island rapids but it got through
them in spite of the fact that they had been regarded
as permanent obstacle to steamship traffic on the
upper Mississippi.
The white inhabitants of the region were great
" excited by the ships successful voyage the Indians
were terrified thinking it monster.
1t is hard to estimate the Importance OF that frSt
trip 1t opened UP new section to steam navigation
The changes that have taken place since in navigation
on that river in civilization and prosperity along It's
banks in the development of agriculture industry ana
commerce, are tremendous.
In the progress of 100 years people are often i0r
getful of the brave beginnings which made 1t possible
There are few thrills today in considering alrplane
traffic Yet anyone who will try to turn his lmaglna-
alton back century should profit by the historical
perspective he will gain.

YOU can watch the cake in the oven

"And you needn' t ask" went on
Nurse Jane, quickly, whether

the cake. You know it's the cake

"Yes, | know!" chuckled Uncle
Wiggily. "All right, Nurse Jane,
I'll bring my shaving down TO the

So the bunny rabbit took his brush

sliced the whiskers off his face
Nurse Jane went over to see Mrs.
Twistytail, the pig lady.

BACK TO BARTER

In one of Henry Ford's latest pronunciamentoes
he says that "all the money in the world could be
dumped into the and as long men would put one
stone on TOP of another and till their ground they
would have products to barter and exchange, ana
world commerce would go without Interruption
Very well. Suppose all the money were dumped
into the sea-and a big splash it would make when
Uncle Sam's pile went ker-punk We confess to mild
wonder to how Henry Ford would carry on MS own
business.
Would he barter fivvers direct for Michigan tm-
ber and Lake Superior iron and West Virginia coal:
And would he pay his workmen and agents IN KIND
Or would he adopt wampum, as the first Americans
were disposed to do when they had any commercial
transaction more involved than exchanging dried tlsh
for arrowheads buffalo meat for corn Or would he
stamp out little pieces of fordcar tin marked Good for
per cent of Ford Touring Car or the Equivalent
Thereof?'
History seems to show that commerce never deVei-
oped very far until money had been invented, to serve
as common medium OF exchange, and that the more
complex society becomes, the more needs money OF
some kind whether coin tokens But then, Mr. Ford
says, History is bunk

INDUSTRIAL PREPAREDNESS

plan for industrial preparedness in case Of an
other war is being worked out by the War Department
1t pointed out that in the last war the shortage
of prepared military forces little less problem
than the euuppng of the forces when they were
assembled To offset this difficulty in the future 1t
is proposed to divide small contracts for the manutac
ture of military supplies among industrial plants
throughout the country For week or so out of each
year these plants would manufacture army equipment
and munitions determining in actual practice the most
efficient methods for getting the work done. While the
cost to the government would be little than hay-
ing all the work done in the government arsenala 1T Is
said the advantage Of having the industries OF the
country familiar with the work would offset this lea

Very likely the plan is good one if it can be

THE AGE-HERALD !
Gadsden. Ala. Jan. l6 /

With nobody but a negro watch
man aboard, the Lola j., a steam
boat formerly in the government
service, but now maintained as a
private pleasure craft, broke from
her mornings at the Broad street
wharf late Thursday night and went
flying down the Coosa river for fif-
teen miles of the widest running
ever done by any craft that ever
piled the stream. The boat crashed
into the ferry wire at Fowler's ferry
and snapped it into. A few miles
lower down it pulled down the post
that anchors the cable of the Gilbert
ferry and broke the wire into.
Somehow or other the craft ran
into the bank before it reached Lis
ter's ferry and the negro succeeded
in hitching it to tree. The man
said afterwards that he frequently
bumped into banks ard tree branches
but could not effect a landing. His
terrifying ride was in utter dark
ness. The boat will return to the
city under its own power as soon as
some minor repairs can be made.

The fight for the enactment of a

Shortly before the two houses adj
journed Friday afternoon until Tues
day, Representative Mike Sollie of
Dale introduced in the house a copy
of the bill which was Indefinitely
postponed by the senate Thursday
afternoon. 1t was referred to the
committee on revision of laws.
This means that the bitter contest
waged in the senate will be trans

be made to obtain action before the
