INsURING PURE MILK

A Although the complaint that some milkmen are not conforming to the city lhealth regulations comes from dairymen who are obeying the regulations, yet the is really of wide public concern.
 twenty per cent. of the milk delivered Birmingham is under standard, some thing ought to be done about it.
 # There is no, disposition on the part \ of dairymen who are observing the reg D ulations to complain of the requirements. On the contrary, they find that it pays to :: comply with the rules, and have shown Aa commendable spirit of cooperation in 8improving the milk supply. While they 4are entitled to protection, the public safety and the public welfare are the 8 primary considerations in this situation q Consumers of milk in homes can and should co-opefate with the health de- partment by refusing to buy milk that does not conform to the regulations.
 That would contribute to a better ob- ergance of the law. Patrons of many
 staurants and eatinghouses are unable discover the source of the milk they

How to Go. Heip Under the Klan Plank

 l. Any good Democrat finding himself chased over the rough roads in his B. V. D.s by couple of thousand neighbors in white sheets may call upon the Democratic party for aid.
 7. This aid is guaranteed him in the plank as adopted at the Democratic national con vention.
 5. All he has to do is to ''try and get it. v 4. The procedure to be adopted by a good Democrat in such a cross-country run shall be as follows: (a) He shall notify the party at once. (b) This notification should be prefer ably in writing.
 (c) Writing on both sides of the paper is barred.
 (d) Said notification, however, may be made by telephone, telegram or smoke sig nals
 (e) Signalling for help by radio is for bidden. It interferes with the jazz or chestra selections from KLMW.
 tf) The message should be brief. The briefer the better, as the party leaders are very busy men.

 l3 Realizing that man is being given the works by the opponents of midnight mas querades probably would in his excitement be tempted to identify his pursuers in his cry for aid, we suggest that the Klan be known by the following names "WhOoziz, You Know Who" Party of the Second Part" ''X"
