Register For City
Elections

No citizen of Americas should
fail to register with the city clerk
for the two municipal elections
which come in the next few
weeks.
First the election of mayor,
three aldermen and two police
commissioners. This election
comes on October u. Closely
following that will be the bond
election when Americas citizens
will decide what they want done
with the wood-block streets Of
the city. This election has been
called for November 5.
No one has yet announced for
either of the places to be filled
in the municipal election, but
they will IN the next few days
and every citizen should cast a
vote and NOW is the time to
register.
The bond election is import

blodksscost the city as much in a
year as the interest on the
bonds. repair costs will increase
each year. The streets are I'M

"Plutogog" Dawes

Democrats generally will not
take kindly to the suggestion of
Senator Brookhart that Vice
Presidential Candidate Dawes
be put off the Republican ma
tional ticket.
Gen. Dawes on the stump has
been one of the best assets of
the Democratic party so far.
Autocratic, domineering and
dictatorial in his attitude to-
ward all who do not agree with
his Tory views of government,
his speeches have been a con-
tinuous offense to the general
public.
Dawes is the most inveterate
hard-boiled reactionary in the
Republican party. His capital
stock is profanity, invective
and denunciation. His candi-
dacy is an insult to labor be-
cause of his peculiar obsession
of antagonism to labor unions.
His connection with the Lorimer
bank failure and with the Pure
Oil Company, which latter is a
secondary defendant in the
Federal courts, make him an
undesirable candidate for any
public office.
Senator Brookhart has char
acterized him in the epithet
''plutogog", which describes
him as accurately as demo
cog" describes the average re-
dictionary Republican stump
speaker. However much pro-
gressive Republicans may want
Gen. Dawes off the ticket their
demands will meet with no sym
pathy among Democrats who
want to make the assurance of
victory double sure by using
Gen. Dawes as a horrible ex-
ample" of Republican Toryism
in it's most obnoxious form of
public expression.

BIRDS DESTROY BoLL WEVILs

1t seems to be an established
fact that the boil wevil is not so
much of pest this year as in the
past. 1t is probable that the Sc
we're weather of last winter had
something to do with the boil
weevil mortality.
But, after all, the birds have
done their part in destroying the
boil weeviT just as they devour so
many noxious insects of various
kinds.
The Alabama public schools are
using a textbook entitled '"The
Elements of Conservation" in
which the names of the birds
known to aid in the destruction OF
boil weevil are given The book
is compiled from data gathered by
the Department of Agriculture,
and here are the sixty-six varie-
ties of birds that are absolutely
known to feed on the boil weevil:
Upland plover, killdeer, boo
white, red-head woodpecker,
flicker, bullbat, chimney swift
scissor-tailed fly-catcher, phoebe,
diversified fy-catcher, wood pee
peewee, alder bird, Baltimore
oriole Bullock oriole, rusty
blackbird, Brewer blackbird, brcn
re grackle, boat-taiIed grackle,
English sparrow, lark sparrow,
white throated sparrow, fox spar
row, towhee, redbird, gray gro6-
beak, painted bunting, indigo
bunting, dickcissel, purple martin,
cliff swallow, barn swallow, tree
swallow, bank swallow, rough
winged swallow, loggerhead shri-
Ike, white-eyed vireO, yollow war-
bier, pine warbled, Maryland PIP
it, hooking bird, thrasher, Caro-
lima wren, Bewich wren, winter
wren, tufted tit-mouse, black
crested titmouse, Carolina chick
adee and bluebird.
Of coure, there are thousands
= of persons who are not even ANA
ture ornithologists. They may
not know one-tenth of the fore
going birds by sight or by name.
But the broad fact remains that
a vast majority of the birds are
beneficial to men. There can BE-
no quarrel with the legitimate
sportsman who kills lawful nma-
Der of game birds in a season,
But it is evident that the lawful
limits should be scupulously oil
served and that the songbirds
should be protected absolutely

The Value Of a Dollar

The value of your dollar to-
day is about % cents, statistic
ians tell us, as compared with
what it would buy in l9l4-in
other words before the world
war.
However, there has been a
big change in favor of the pur-
chasing power since 1920. In
1914 dollar would have filled
your market basket at the gro
GERS for example In 1920 that
same dollar would have filled
but 40 per cent, of the basket,
leaving 90 per cent of it empty.
But today your grocery basket
will be % per cent filled. Quite

Child Control

Never frighten nor lie to a
child if you would hold its con-
fidence. Once the child loses
confidence in its parents it loses
confidence in mankind.
Psychoa ma y sis and new
movements in psychiatry have
been teaching those persons who
have cared to keep in touch just
how great an influence in after
years incidents Of childhood
may have.
The C mp e e s. about
which so much has been said,
are being traced to almost for
gotten events in child or Adde'S
cent life.
These were things about
which Mr.. and Mrs. Mann were
not particularly we'll informed,
and there are too few people
everywhere who keep the
proper watch on their own and
their children habits.
Thus, about examination time
at school, Johnny or Mary de-
velops headache or
tummy ache, or something.
Why? Because a child likes to
escape unpleasant tasks, if pos
sible.
Every parent knows how
many schemes and stunts a
child can invent to get out OF
all sorts Of work.
But, unless future impress is
to be left upon the habits and
manners Of the child, the par
ents should start early to teach
the necessity of facing the real
tiles; of humping square upon a
problem and facing it out
whether the end be marked by
success or failure.
Parents would do well to
learn that it is better that
child fail at a task than that he
run around the corner to escape
it. 1t is the fear of failure and
parental rebuke that too often
starts a child in the habit of de-
ceiving both parents in himself.
And this is habit that sticks.
The greatest man in the world
is daddy, and mother is on
a step removed from the angels
in the mind of child. Retain
this love and confidence by
ever dealing honestly, fairly and
conscientiously with the child.
