ject which John w. Langley and Paul
P. Kelser are putting on, starting OH their
Alabama tour October r
This is called d dramatic debate and 1t
really is dramatic. MI. Langley, as the
good citizen, boils over with wrath in dis
cussing with Mr.. Kelser, as county attor-
ney, the failure of that official to close up
certain places known to be violating the
law.
Mr.. Kelscr, as the county attorney,
points out that the real trouble is with the
citizens and not with the officials, and
then, after discussing the issue back and
forth, rather heatedly, they both find that
both are right and both are wrong, and
end up with each accepting his response
bility, and an agreement to see that the
law is enforced.
During the debate, which lasts 48 min
utes, there are many facts and statistics
brought out in an interesting way such a
lot of them, indeed, that the debate is
worth attending just for these. But it's
entertaining, too, with bit of humor now
and then, and is the equal of the best
Chautauqua attraction.
These debates are free to all, and both
men and women are invited to attend.

TYPICAL WET STATEMENTS
South African Opponent of Prohibitions
Knows Little About America or
Americas Dry Law

The agitation now being carried on for
the introduction of local option in South
Africa has revived the polemics on Amer
lean prohibition.
A certain Mr.. w. C. Windshaw, an ar
dent opponent of prohibition, recently de-
clared that in the city of New York alone
there were million and half elandestine
stills. He had not reflected that there are
barely more than one million houses in
New York.
In order to prove that he knew what he
was talking about, he affirmed that there
was not village or hamlet in the United
States he had not visited before prohibit
ton. A competent statistician has calcu-
lated that it could not have taken Mr..
Windshaw less than 100 years to accom-
pish this feat

and egress and operation was continued.
Last week the state police caught Abra-
hanson loading six trucks with contra
band beer. They Immediately seized the
brewery and found over 1000 barrels of
beer on the racks and in the watts. To
make sure none of this should be sold
the state police treated it with bichloride
of mercury tablets. They then pasted
huge poison signs all over the place. The
use of the poison will keep the alcoholic
content as it was at the time of the raid.
Samples of the liquor were taken to
federal authorities at Pittsburgh and all
the officials of the brewery will be ar
rested within few days.

STUBENS FOR LA TOILETTE
Is Apparently Old Wet German.
American Alliance in Res
direction

The Steuben Society of America has in
dorsed the candidacy of LaFollette for
the presidency and has appointed special
committee for the purpose of lining up
voters of German descent behind the Wis
consin Senator.
The Steuben Society of America is ap-
parently the old German-American ALI
ance rejuvenated and rechristened
The German-American Alliance was a
booze organization. Now this new Ger
man-American Alliance called the Steuben
Society of America is favoring LaFollette
for the presidency and evidently its atti-
tude is pleasing to the Senator who has
placed a representative of the society on
his campaign executive committee.
Why is the successor to the old Ger
man-American Alliance supporting La
Toilette? There must be a reason. This
old disloyal organization is for LaFo1lette
because LaFollette voted against a dec1a-
ration of war with Germany and later in
his famous St. Paul speech, declared that
the sinking of the Lusitania by German
submarine was not sufficient to constitute
cause of war against Germany Then,
too, the remodeled German-American Al
lance knows that LaFollette comes nearer
meeting its views on the liquor question
than does any of the other candidates.
On this question he has wavering record.
Against Volstead Act
LaFol1ette was a member of the Senate
when the Eighteenth Amendment was
submitted to the states and voted for sub
mission, but indicated that he did so be-
cause of the referendum vote. He voted
against the Volstead law and against the
anti-beer law. in his home state he is
generally regarded as a beer and wine
man.
Since LaFollette has become a candi-
date for President he has remained silent
on the wet and dry question. His cam
paign manager has been asked for state
ment and it was promised but up to this
time has not beeen given. Were LaFol-
iette to declare for the dry law he would
lose the enthusiastic support of such agen-
cies as the Steuben Society. Were he to
declare for beer and wine he would lose
the support of those of his followers in the
northwest where prohibition sentiment l.
strong.
With al of LaFollette's courage, he
keeps silent if he thinks it political expo
diency for him to do So

inspector as saying anyone who tells you
that he has struggled in two or three
quarts of liquor in his car coming through
New York from Canada is dealing harshly
with the truth. This inspector is sta
toned at Rouse's Point the official portal
of motorists driving between Canada and
New York state: The Inspector said:
"Few persons carry booze past us.
The booze we get comes from four cylin-
der runabouts and from eight cylinder Sc
dams. They all look alike to us.
There is a tendency among tourists of
means and refinement to show injured
dignity and to mutter threats about see
ing somebody at Washington when we
tap their pockets. They dispute our right
to frisk' the persons of those coming
across the border, yet the law gives us
carte blanche in our efforts to keep con-
traband out.
Watch for "Clinks''
"When people walk with clinking
noise, we make thorough inspection of
their attire. Our suspicious were aroused
the other day by the musical tinkle enlan-
ating from beneath beautiful silken
opera cloak worn by woman who
stepped out of a limousine.
I'VE sent her upstairs and had her
searched by a woman. Twelve bottles
were found on her. We con6scated them,
of course, and arrested the two men who
had accompanied the woman. They, to-
gether with their automobile, were held

not bootleggers. They would undoubt-
edly vince at being called that. They
most likely wanted to come home and
stage big party in celebration of their
success in fouting the country's laws.
They Know All the Tricks
1--WE are always suspicious when some
person says, Don't you dare to put your
hands on mel Such warnings usually
net us two or three bottles at least.
1--WE keep an eye peeled for the friendly
conversationalist who tells us that tough
work like ours ought to be much better
paid. He thinks that cultivating our good
will may cause us to be lenient and he is
more than disappointed when a close in
spection reveals pint bottles nesting I'M

tonneau.

need extra attention. They aren't bad

PRAISES SCHOOLS
 IN MILL VILLAGES
Miss Handley Praises Co-opera-
 ton Of Textile Concerns
(State Capital Bureau.)

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Sept. 15,-On September 1 an amendment to the Ala bama child labor law raising the edu- cational requirement. for employment certificates from the fourth to the fifth grade became effective. Miss Virginia B. Handley, director of the state child wei fare department, stated that she had expected that when this law became effective that many children between IA and 16 years of age now working who had obtained certificates under the old law, would not be able to meet the additional educational requirement and wuold have to return to school, but so far in very few instances has it made any change in the status of the chill dren now employed because last year two thirds of the children who ob- tained certificates had completed the sixth grade or higher. s
 Two thirds of all certificates issued last year permitting children to enter employment during the session of the public schools were issued to the chil- dren to work in the cotton mills.
 This shows that the splendid schools maintained in the mill villages and the splendid way with which the mill corporations are enforcing the compul- sory education law is helping to wipe out illiteracy in Alabama" Miss Hand ley stated. Many of the mill villages

MEMORIAL SERVICE < FOR MRS. MUNGER
Birmingham-SOuthern HOnOrs
 Memory Of Late BenefactOr

Memorial services for Mrs. Mary c. Munger were held at the Birmingham Southern college chapel Monday morn- ing, at which time the school paid tribute to the memory of one of its greatest friends and most loyal sup porter.
 The program was opened by the Scripture reading by Dr. E. G. Mackay, college chaplain. Prayer by Dean Ludd M. Spivey followed.
 President Guy E. Snavely, represent ing the faculty, told of the great friendship of Mrs. Munger to his in stitution, as manifested by her gener' ous gifas. Dr. Snavely also related several incidents in Mrs. Munger's life, which portrayed to the student body a clearer conception of her lOvable char acter.
 Male students of Birmingham-South- ern were represented in the memorial services by Russell F. Johnson, of the junior class, who touched upon several of the notable characteristics of Mrs. Munger The BirminghamSouther co-eds had as their representative or this occasion, Miss Lois Caldwell, presi- dent of the college Y. w. c. A.
 What was probably the most inspir- ing speech of the services was delivered by Dr. Lewis C. Branscomb, pastor of the First Methodist church of .Annis ton, who spoke as the representative of the Birmingham-Southern board Of trustees.
 Dr. Branscomb had long been ac quainted with Mrs. Munger, and in his talk related few incidents in her life which were outstanding. His tribute it was declared, expressed the opinion of the large number of Birmingham Southern friends and supporters.

Dr. J. W. Cammack of Richmond, Va, has accepted the office of secre- tary of the educational board of the Southern Baptist convention, according to announcement Monday.
