SCHOOL NOTES

Tuesday noon of this week all hands reported at the beach for luncheon picnic. As the tide was out baseball was so popular that many of the boys forgot the eats. But of what impOr- tance is a meal when the gang is chasing the horsehide pellet.
 If anyone wants information on the routine of postoffice work ask Mrs. Short and her first year English class. Thru the kindness of MT. Root they were shown the machinery behind the scenes and all agree that it is very busy place. They have petitioned Willis Perry to cut down on the amount of mail he now gets so that the strain on the machinery will be lessened.
 Friday mornings assembly program proved a successful affair as engineer ed by Miss Lenore Martin of the 9th, 7th and Sth grade. Walter Blue brot his radio equipment and puzzled ev erybody with the technical terms on hooking" up radio. Marconi may understand it, Walter, but you are bit ahead of our speed. Marit Eide and Suzanne Eamons got hearty ap- plause on their redition of a difficult piano duet The "takeoff" on coun- try school by the members of the Sth grade was headliner. All agree that Clara Perry would make good teach CT; but she would neeed the co-opera- tion of a professional bouncer to "larn" the crowd anything.
 The high school pupils gave suc- cessful return party to the eighth grade pupils last night at the Elks' clubroom Thelma Tallasen, Clara Manthey and Lucille Byrne surely make excellent cake Cor must we give the credit to their mothers); Willis Perry and Harry Revelle are sharks at ice cream making, and Ethel Nc Intosh is a wizard with the punch. About fifteen couples and all the teachers were there to see that noth-. ing was wasted.

LIGHTING UP AN AVENUE

The Civitan club of Birmingham has met with much to discourage it in its efforts to provide a white way for Fifth avenue, but at last the com mittee is in position to announce that success seems to be in sight. More than sixty per cent. of the property owners along the avenue from Eigh- teenth street to the Terminal station have signed agreements for their share of the expense and it is believed that others will follow. The clubis stress ing the importance of having Fifth avenue present such appearance st night as to make favorable impress sion upon visitors entering the city by way of the Terminal station. Or namental lighting of the avenue will also contribute to the comfort and convenience of residents who use this thoroughfare.

AS TO THE TwELvE-MILE LIMIT

Great Britain grows less inclined to grant the United States Jurisdiction over twelve-mile shore limit instead of the three miles observed from time immemorial under international agree ment. The American government has felt that if rum-running ships could be kept twelve miles at sea, the en- forcement of the country's prohibition laws would be simplified. Great Britain, maritime nation, feels, how ever, that much more is involved in a twelve-mile limit than the enforcement of Americas liquor laws, and that if the precedent is set and the plan ex- tended to other nations there are many of the worlds waterways which would be closed under the arrangement. British statesmen take the attitude that much more can be done to aid enforcement of the American laws by British legislation, notably by the plac- ing of restrictions upon exports of liquor to the Bahamas and other points near American shores.
 While enforcement of prohibition along the coast has been attended with great difficulties, notable progress has been made, and public sentiment is do- ing much to lessen those difficulties. Sea-going rum-runners now seldom approach closer to the shores than twelve miles, and the enforcement problem is almost entirely confined to the smaller American vessels which bring the liquor ashore. In such a situation the extension to a twelve mile limit would not seem to be of great advantage. Public sentiment is expected gradually to crystalline against officials who wink at viola tions and thereby prove a determining influence for law enforcement.

DAUGHERTY AND BROTHERS

Dispatches from The Age-Herald' $
 Washington bureau point out that t'war profiteers" are still at large and that Attorney General Daugherty has failed to keep his promise that the so called "war criminals" would be brought to justice. This, however, is not surprising when the manner in which the attorney general has gone about his duties is considered. MT. Daugherty holds his present position in the cabinet because of his astute- mess as a politician. He was taken into the cabinet family because of past political services and because of the belief that his political acumen would continue to be of value to the admin istration. From the beginning of his official duties his acts have been measured largely by their probable political effect. Many of the men who made huge profits out of the war are in position to be of service to the Republican party either as campaign contributors or as leading figures in the political life of their home states, and therefore must not be antagonized from political viewpoint. It is noted that the principal figure against which the attorney generals wrath has been directed is Benedict Crowell, who was an assistant secretary of war in the Wilson administration. Even Henry L. Stimson, secretary of war in the Taft administration, has declared that the Crowell indictment grew out of the cost-plus system and that under the Daugherty charges former President Wilson and Secretary of War Baker would be as amenable as MT. Crowell for cutting out lot of government red tape and getting the war camps constructed with the greatest possible speed.
 The people of this country would be more impressed with the attorney generals sincerity of purpose if he would cease to show discrimination in his prosecutions and would proceed against some of those who are noto- rious for seizing on a wartime emer- gency to hold up the government.

PROTECTING FISH AND CAME

Changes made by the recent legisla- ture in Alabama's game conservation laws so as to bring them into closer accord with the federal statutes will meet approval by those who favor ade- quate protection of the states game and fish. The new regulations have particularly to do with migratory game birds so that open season on doves will begin October 16 and close January 1, while the open season for ducks, geese and snipe will be from November 1 to January 31. There are also i'm portant provisions relating to fur bearing animals with particular limi- tations upon trapping, while a closed season is placed upon bass, bream and trout from April 1 to June 1, and it is unlawful to take or be in possession of any fresh-water bass or trout under seven inches in length.
 One of the wisest provisions is that which creates full-time game wardens in each cunty, who are placed upoa regular salaries. A warden with proper conception of his duties does not require fees to spur him on to action. He will enforce the laws be- cause he knows those laws are just and proper, because he loves natures creatures, and because he resents will-' full and useless depletion of wild life. He will also be in sympathy with the objects sought in the proposed fish cultural stations with provisions for stocking and replenishing the states strea@s. An important duty thus de- wolves upon the state commissioner of conservation in the selection of his wardens, and when such men enter upon their work hunters and fishermen will give that cooperation which they realize is essential for the protection of wild life in Alabama.

of these totals, but the eight branch libraries showed how widely the serv- ices of the system are utilized. It is worthy of mention that the Washing ton library, the negro branch with its 4,85S books, had a circulation of 44,O89
 It is stated that the library at the city hall has virtually reached the limit of it's capacity because of crowded conditions. It is regarded as an achievement that hundreds of thou sands of people are being accommo- dated each year in the inadequate quarters assigned by the city for the library. Books have had to be placed in adjoining store-rooms and in the city hall tower to such an extent as to emphasize the need for suitable library building. When nearly six hundred thousand people a year show their appreciation of the impor- tance of the library's work by utilizing it's facilities, strong argument is of- fered on behalf of the necessity of providing adequate quarters for this constructive service.

AS TO CAMPAIGN PLEDGES

The second of the famous nine points upon which Governor Brandon made his campaign for governor, and which were carried into the Demo cratic platform, read: Reduction in expenses of government and the cut ting to the bone of all departments and economizing in every practical way" An analysis of the books of the Jefferson county treasurer shows the legislature made the following in- creases in salaries in this county:
 Tax collector, $5,000 to $6,0O0; tax assessor, $5,OoO to $6,O0O; solicitors, $4,500 to $6,000 first and second deputy solicitors, $3,eoo to $4,5Oo; president board of revenue, $3,6OO to S5,0o0; associate members board of revenue, $3,600 to $4,SO0; circuit judges, $5,5oO to $6,4OO; probate judge, $6,OOO to $7.5OO; sheriff, $6,000 to $7,500; circuit court clerk, $3,6O0 to $4,800; register in chancery, $3,6O0 to $4,s00; judges court of common claims, $3,oOO to $4.OOc; chief clerk county treasurer, $2,70O to $3,600; deputy clerk probate court, $2,700 to $3,6O0; judge municipal court, $3,6oo to $4,sOO; newly crc- ated solicitor Bessemer division, $3,400.
 Salary increases among the va rious state department heads and at- taches at Montgomery were upon A somewhat similar scale, though it was claimed that there might be an actual saving through elimination of outside employees.
 It is not necessary here to go into the merits of these increases or by analysis to show the duties performed and the proper recompense for such duties under present living conditions. It is important, however, to call atten- tion once more to the spirit manifested at Montgomery toward campaign pledges. A necessary salary increase for faithful public official is one thing and campaign pledge is an- other. It only emphasizes the care which should be taken in making pledges before election for fear such pledges may not be possible of fulfill ment.

APPLICATION OF BLUE LAWS

Incident to many complaints arising from efforts to enforce what are not known as blue laws in this city it has been set forth that the city is not re- ouired to put into application state law under which the city for while operated to keep certain fines in the citiy treasury instead of permitting them to go elsewhere. It is under stood that the city has certain dis cretionary powers as to the enforce ment of the state law which is claimed to be obsolete and not mandatory upon the municipality. Suggestion has been made that this law, whichfis unadaptl- ble to modern city life, might be re- pealed, thereby solving problem which bids fair to create much con fusion, inconvenience and hardship. If the state law regarding Sunday games and a number of activities closely associated with the public me- cessities is to be rigidly enforced, liv- ing conditions would be burden upon the people, because under the state law pretty much everything would be closed on Sunday, and all activities, including those bearing upon living needs, would have to cease.
 Whether or not the present agitation grew out of complaints based upon grievances or grouches, as has been rumofed, and regardless of the influ- ences which started enforcement of the blue laws, the fact remains that 1t would be difficult, if not impossible. for the authorities to carry out every provision of these laws. As has been said, the enforcement authorities have no discretion in the matter, and es- pecially if their action be the out growth of complaints about the ab- senee of law enforcement, whether those complaints be founded on sim cerity of purpose or whether they were actuated by reactionary intent.
 It would seem that there must be an adjustment and an understanding, so far as they can be reached legally, looking to the settlement of question which might easily involve more than the desire for rigid law enforcement, and might have behind it less worthy motives. One thing is certain, and that is that no large modern city can be brought entirely under the appli- cation of drastic blue laws without working unnecessary hardship upon all the people, by affecting seriously their health and their reasonable com fort, as we'll as their moral welfare.
