SWINGING TO MR- DAVIS

One of the first evidences of the re- suit of MT. Davis speech of acceptance IS it's tendency 50 bring out the endorse ment of certain leaders whose support was more or less in doubt. Foremost among these are Senator James Reed of Missouri and Mayor John F. Hylan of New York City. Senator Reed sends from his sickbed statement of unre- served commitment to Mir. Davis candi- dacy. The senator does not hesitate to reiterate his divergence of view from that of MT. Davis with respect to our foreign relations, but inasmuch as Mir. Davis specifically intends to leave mem bership in the league to the decision of the people, MT. Reed finds that he can not quibble on that point. Mayor Hylan likewise declares that the Davis prin- ciples "appeal strongly to anyone inter ested in humanity in government. The translation of these principles into ac- tnality would tend greatly toward the economic emancipation of the people,"
 While neither Senator Reed nor Mayor Hylan stands high in the party councils, yet each has an immense following in his own bailiwick. Consequently their un- solicited support of MT. Davis and the party ticket will add greatly to it's strength III NeW 1OTk anu MISSOuTlS GWO very important and pivotal states. There are other indications that MT. Davis is proving to be a leader around whom hitherto unharmonious elements in the party may group themselves without feel ing that they have made sacrifice to former position or to pride. It is of good omen, especially as the candidate specif- ically declares his intention of commit ting himself to no policy in return for political favors. Lack of that principle paved the way for corruption among Re- publican high officials. It shall not be the case with MT. Davis. -

Brief Nature Studies
By J. OTIS SWIFT

The red-eyed vireo, preacher of the wood, of the greenlet family, meets the penitent worldling seeking solitude in the wilderness to think at the edge of the forest. Hardly ever does his zeal wait. He commences his sermon Do you hear me? Do you believe it? Do you see it?" and repeats it over and over.
 No day is too hot in summer, and long after other birds have reared their young and forgotten their love songs or commenced moulting, Hitting silently through the tree tops, the energetic sermonizer repeats his firstly" secondly" and thirdly" to the old trees and any other worshipper who may chance to be near. He does not care whether there are humans about. He has message to give. and gives it, and if no one Hears, so much the worse for the delinquent.
 "The vireo sings when otherwise the woods are still" says David Grayson. You do not see him; you cannot find him; but you know he is there. And his singing is wild and shy and mystical. It haunts you like the memory of some former happiness" When one is trou- bled over many things and friends desert, there is no better way than to go to the wood land preacher for advice.

sOYIET INCONsISTENCY !.

The inconsistency and insincerity of the Russian soviet need no further proof but recent official utterances of that authority confirm all previous impress sions. In the first place, the soviet man. ifesto sharply criticizes the experts plan for rehabilitation of Germany as direct blow at the eight-hour day for that na- tion, and vehemently calls upon the Ger man workers to repudiate the agree ment. To be sure, as the New York Times dryly remarks, "the Russian work CTS have also lost the eight-hour day by soviet fiat; but for that Moscow can no doubt cite very good reason. The right to strike and the right to protest in the public press or in public meeting has been taken away from the Russian work CT, but for that, too, there is no doubt an excellent reason" And it is from source like that that some people ask the Amer ican worker and the workers of other enlightened countries to take counseli
 ~ Another inconsistency of the soviet Announcement is that the plan will mean a heavier tax upon the Germans, and that therefore they should reject it. But the alternative to German payment is payment by the other allied nations. Either the German workers must bear a part of the expense of the war, or the

To Be 4 Gentleman
By R. ADDINGToN BRUCE

It needs no great observational power to perceive the continuing prevalence of the old deiusion that to be gentleman depends on such things as ancestry, dress and knowledge of the rules of etiquette. Insistently this de- fusion holds the minds of people in all walks of life.
 And this despite the fact that experience repeatedly teaches that one may have nota- ble line of ancestors, be a veritable fashion plate, and know the rules of etiquette back ward, yet be boor, cad, and everything that is ungentlemanly.
 The trouble is that when they think of the term gentleman" people unconsciously tend to confuse accidentals with essentials. They forget that gentlemanliness is always and only an attribute of the personality, the outward expression of a certain attitude to life and to ones fellow-men.
 And what is that attitude? It is clearly defined in this passage from the writings of an author whose name is unknown to me:
 "The true gentleman carefully avoids what ever may cause a jar or jolt in the minds of those with whom he is east his great con cern being to make every one at ease and at home.
 "He has his eyes on all his company, he is tender toward the bashful, gentle toward the distant. and mereiful toward the absurd, He can recollect to whom he is speaking; he guards against unreasonable allusions or topics which may irritate; he is seldom prom inent in conversation, and never wearisome.r 7
 And, still more explicitly, from another au- thor:
 "A true gentleman is recognized by his regard for the rights and feelings of others, even in matters the most trivial In society he is quiet, easy, unobtrusive, putting on no airs, nor limiting by word or manner that he deems himself better, wiser, or richer than any one about him.
 "Above all things he is distinguished by his deep insight and sympathy, his quick per- ception of, and prompt attention to, those little and appafently insignificant things that may cause pleasure or pain to others. Frank ness and cordiality mark all his intercourse with his fellows"
 Plainly the standards here emphasized are very different from, and much higher than, the common acceptation of what is involved in being a gentleman. Tested by these stand ards many a self-styled gentleman is seen to be counterfeit, and many one who humbly puts away all claim to gentlemanliness has every claim to it.
 Plainly, too, it is open to any one, by self culture in sympathy, kindliness, tact, cour- tesy, and unselfishness, to qualify as a gem tleman. If more would take the pains so to qualify this world would truly be a pleasanter place in which to live.

HOW KNOXVILLE DID IT

Although spokesmen for a mayor aldermanlc form of government for Bir- mlngham have contested The Age Herald's position that personnel is more important than form in the government of city, there is abundant proof of The Age-Herald's position and very little proof that any form of government, no matter how superior, would work unless its administrators were most carefully selected.
 In regard to this question the Kansas City Times remarks: "The fact that Knoxville, Tennessee, has been able to allow rebate of ten per cent. to it's tax payers, and may increasa the amount to fifteen per cent. by the end of the year, has attracted considerable attention throughout the country. It was business efficiency in the management of Knox yllle's affairs, of course, that made this dividend possible. But the new order in the city came simply because the people for once took enough interest in their government to place ticket of their own m the field and then elect that ticket. They did not leave the important thing to be done by few politicians" It is be- heved that Birmingham, for example, would be doing equally wrong to permit few politicians to select new form of government and then proceed to cram it down the peoples throats. It would be far better first for the people of this community to try the experiment, novel here, of inducing men of capacity and public spirit to run for the office of city commissioner, in order that the present form may have thorough test. The pro- posed mayor-aldermanic form has a strong odor of politics for the sake of politics.
 Reverting to the case of Knoxville, the Times goes on to say: "The people in this case beat the politicians at their own game. They showed themselves and the rest of the country that it pays all the people to become politicians and to run their own government. The people may obtain dividends on their government anywhere they choose to take charge of their government and turn out the poli- tcians who have been fattening upon the taxpayers. Because Birmingham has been growing so rapidly perhaps the cit izens may not be able to enjoy rebate on taxes, but, what is of far more value, they may enjoy efficiency in the admin istration of affairs by taking enough in- terest to see to it that the right men are placed in charge. Knoxville has done it, and there is no good reason why Bir- mingham should not do it.

Forum Of The People
Believes Entire Commission Responsible

Believes Entire Commission Responsible To the Editor of The Age Herald
 I read with interest your editorial upon equal responsibility of all the commissioners for conditions at the city hall and Mr. Will liam l.. Harrison's reply to it.
 Your claim that all the commissioners were equally responsible is absolutely correct, ac- cording to the facts in the matter. Mir. liar risons attempt to dodge and avoid his share of responsibility is ridiculous and absurd.
 The first suggestion of something wrong in Mir. McLendon's department was when one of the prominent bankers of Birmingham charged MT. Taylor with attempting to extort graft from his bank in consideration of de- posits of city funds in that bank
 About all the commission did was to in- crease MT. Taylor's salary $1 000 year.
 These serious charges, and especially Mir. McLendon's bitter partisan attitude in at- tempting to shield Mir. Taylor, should have caused the entire commission to investigate that department. Then came the disgraceful discharge of Mrs. Walker. The public inves- tigation showed her to have been faithful, efficient public servant of the city for eight years. That she had been discharged for no other reason than that she knew too much or might know too much about the affairs of that department and might tell it.
 It was also shown that Mir. Taylor's insur- ance policy had been paid for out of city funds. Instead of the commission passing a resolution asking for the resignation of Mir. Taylor and immediately reinstating Mrs. Walker, as they should have done, they unan- imously indorsed and sustained the discharge of Mrs. Walker.
 In questioning Mrs Walker, Mir. Harrison was reported as questioning Mrs. Walker par ticularly as to whether she had told any one about Mir. Taylors insurance premium being paid out of city funds.
 That affair, coupled with Mir, McLendon's bitter partisan attitude in attempting to shield his friend, Mr. Taylor, should have caused the commission to make a sweeping investigation of the entire department.
 Failure to do so fixes the blame and re- sponsbility upon all the commissioners. For practically nothing was done by them until public indignation forced them to act.
 However, this is only an instance of in- competency inefficiency and mismanagement of the affairs of the city that has character ized nearly all of the acts and doings of the city commission.
 I do not wonder that Mir Harrison never saw your reporters. His time and thought must have been too much engaged by the se- cret lobby at the city hall to see anybody. .. W. c. IRBY.
