The largest crater of an active vol cano is that of Elgon in British East Africa. It is twenty-five miles in diam eter. The crater of the volcanic peak Asosan, in Japan, is mo.N than fourteen miles from rim to rim. The size of the crater, however, is not particularly inn portant in indicating the intensity of a volcano's activity. Mauna Loa, in Ha- waii, has the greatest lava output of any volcano in the world, and Kilauea is more continually active than any other.

Many of its establishments would do credit to a community twice the size of Tuscaloosa. The reason for this is found in the fact that the per capita wealth of the city is high, the city rank ing fourth in the state nj the number of automobiles licensed.
 Among the thriving business houses is the establishment of the G. w. Lewis Furniture company. It is one of the largest furniture concerns ill the south, occupying three entire floors of large building. It caters to discriminating class of patrons, and it's stock offers q wide variety of choice to buyers of differing tastes.
 The c w. Lewis Furniture company is known throughout West Alabama as an establishment of exceptionally high standards.

This is a lake filled with molten lava, which comes boiling up from the wells" and goes eddying around the rock walls, swirling and tumbling about the ecrags which thrust up through it heye and there. The whole bottom of this pit rises and falls. Sometimes it is filled with liquid fire, and again it will all be cool enough to walk upon, with only little gas coming from the various wells.

THE GOLDEN IDOL
BY Albert Apple

A Boston rabbi protests against the way Americans
worship He fears that admiration of successful
has reached magnitude where it is form of idol
worship which leads to the surrender OF all Judgment OF
comparison and value"
The public is becoming wiser, though.
1t is not many years since mans wealth was the meas
of his success. His dollars told the story
We believe that achievement is rapidly taking the place
of money the emblem of success Henry Ford for in
stance would be rated little less highly if he had only mod
crate fortune The people marvel at him rather because OF
the millions Of motor he has produced than account
of his enormous fortune.
Steinmetz of his choosing left very small estate
when he died. Money did not concern him. Nor did it
his admirers They cared not that Stenmetz had
not accumulated millions. What they admired his
complishment.
Rockefeller senior used to be famous mainly as the
worlds richest In time his dollars will be eclpsed by
his organizing genius and his wisdom in spending millions
for medical research and education.
The golden idol being torn down. In it's place is the
idol of accomplishment which just another name for serv
ice to humanity.
The public is getting wise in still another direction.
There's increasing comprehension that of the great
est who never accumulate fortune or
do anything big enough to get them into the lmelight.
Take man handicapped by paralysis or blindness yet
who struggles dogged]y and supports himself and family
comfortably. Take who by hard work and determn
aon counteracs inferior ability and gets along reasonably
we'll Take the average and wife who make just fair
living and educate their children.
All these successes-great succeSseSn the eyes OF
Americans today.
Success is not much matter OF results but in char
acter and doing the best with limited abilities and
opportunities. Life is spiritual gymnasium not Kon-
dixie prizefight.

ADVENTURE OF
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

"Who are you?" asked Nick Curl
ously.
No wonder he asked it, for the
Twins were outside busily making
a snowman when suddenly little
black fellow appeared beside them
from nowhere. He was so black all
over that the whites Of his eyes
looked like splashes Of whitc-wash
on coal. He was grinning from ear
to ear, which showed his white teeth
in two rows.
His teeth looked like white
picket-fence on IL dark night. They
surely did.
Over his shoulder was a broom, as
black as he was.
No wonder Nick stared and said

STATING THE FACTS

Recently several suggestions have been advanced in var
quarters designed to strip state industrial institutions
Of false representation to the people, by causing them in
rendering accounting to stand their legs entirely
An suggestion is made with reference to the
hail insurance department, the state bonding fund,
and the fund in which public buildings are insured designed
to the end The suggestion in connection with
information to the effect that demands to be made on
the legislature pay the 20 per cent deficit existing
the hail insurance fund in 1928 because the maximum tax
per permitted by law did yield sufficient amount
of money.
The author of the suggestion holds that the words
Estate Hail Insurance Department., and "State Bonding
Fund give to Misrepresentation Both funds, he holds

same is true among the rich, who
apply bad and costly mixtures to

Through charitable and clinical

been benefited as years go on, and
milk, the great necessity of child
hood, has been supplied in proper

CHRISTMAS CHARITY

Spasmodc poor relief relic of the past. Christmas
cheer such the Community Christmas idea proposes in
Bismarck merely varying the usual process little
putting the spirit of the holiday into the giving.
Bismarcks relief work is sound basis and contn-
throughout the year. No worthy is neglected.
Paupersm is discouraged and often the kind of help that
helps meet is that kind of aid that places the applicant
his feet and teaches him to for himself and face his
responsibilities.
There is nothing easy to develop in community as
chronic paupersm Professional mendcants mark for their
favor cities of easy relief One of the essential features
of charity work is to have giving placed upon business
basis-tha does not either souess kind of giving
that puts to scientific scrutiny each application neither
does necessarily endless red tape discouragng
that the in need tires and would rather suffer than sub
NIT to the torture of too rigid investigation.
The system practiced by the Bismarck Social Registra
ton Bureau is happy medium between the two extremes.
but the careful administration of the office has reduced the
money spent that of former but worthy
of relief has been denied.
1t is gratifying know that Christmas giving this year
through the Community Christmas idea will be directed
that only the worthy will be assisted and the imposer will
be ignored.
The Community Christmas idea is that is worthy OF
the wholehearted support of the community.
