THE WORD "RoLOGNAp

The old Italian city of Bologna has one of the oldest universities in the world. But it is not the university that has conferred undying fame upon the city and has made its name household word in many home in New York.
 Besides it's university the city of Bologna was famed for a peculiarly tasteful sausage which it produced. This sausage was known in the Italian language as "salsice di Bo- logna." In it's pure and unadulterated com position it 2 is made up of bacon, veal and pork suet.
 As Bologna poured the graduates of its famous university all over Europe, it also sent out it's habit of eating 'salsice di Bo- lgona." ..
 That is how it happens that in New York Bologna" is sold in German delicatessen stores. ,-,-..'.. ..t-5 .

PROSPERITY REQUIRES SCHOOLING

FhOSEEh1l hE@O1REO SNnOOL1INO
 A survey of school needs of Tulsa, Okla. homa, with an appeal by the board of edu- cation to the people of that city to vote q bond issue of little more than two million dollars for school improvements in an election last February. Twas received by The Age Herald from Dr. F. P. Claxton, formerly of the University of Alabama, now superin- tendent of the Tulsa public school system. The document is interesting for several req sons. It sets forth in detail and convincing form the school conditions; tells ill compre- hensive manner how the funds are to be ad- ministered in improving the conditions, and shows the benefits that may be relied on for the whole community from the proposed in- vestment. The subject was so clearly and so impressively outlined to the citizens that they carried the bond issue by vote of five to two.
 In addition to mention of the immediate direct benefits from large purchases of ma terials, employment of labor and increase in the wealth and, attractions of the city, the appeal declares
 Children now in the schools will fi-
 nally pay most of the interest and prin-
 cipal. That which we pay will be paid
 mostly out of what would otherwise be
 left to our children when we go. By
 voting the bonds we do not impoverish ourselves. We only enrich our children
 by permitting them thus to borrow from
 their future richer selves, to provide for
 themselves batter opportunities for edu
 cation, whiehNvG do not now feel able
 to provide forsthem out of cash funds
 That is equivalent to the principle of help ing the children to help themselves in later life by providing them better equipment and higher capacity to perform the duties of

A MODERN MAIDS MAxrMs

When lover doesn't know how to do his stuff he's not convincing and when he does know how he cOnvinces the sophisticated young woman of only one thing-that he's had competent instruction.
 After man has flatly contradicted his wife and been proved wrong, his notion of an apology is to remark in injured tones, Well, had every reasont to believe I was -right!' "
 If somebody is brutal enough to mention q woman's age and she says, coyly, guess p always subtract ten before you speak,

 When a woman reminds her husband of something that he promised to do, that he ought to do. that he doesn't want to do, that he hasn't done-that's called nagging.
 The eternal problem which@preoecupies the sinner is how to make participation one half of one per cent as thrilling as antici- patton. Fa

MULES IN TEXAS

Texas has more mules than any other state m the Union; in fact, Texas has more mules than any two states that can be named. And to this fact Texas may point with pardonable pride The mule is not a showy beast, neither has he any record for speeding. As cavalry or dress parade mount he is a failure But when it comes to tearing up the sacred soil in order to grow something worth while or drawing heavy burdens over rough roads, the mule is right there every day in the year. If Texas had no mules, Texans would be poor indeed. The mule can not say much for his forefathers, neither has he any children to pet, but in the matter of pro ducing something to eat and wear he takes high. rank.-Honey Grove Signal

 The people of Birmingham cannot help feeling that the city commission views with far more concern the private situation of the street-railway company than it does its own official obligation to protect the public welfare. For example, why should the city commission regard it as of paramount i'm portance to extend for thirty years fran chises that do not expire for ffom four to six years, and yet fail to exact from the utility any guarantees as to future co-opera- ton with municipal program, or as to the quality of its service? There arc two ques- tions of major moment on which the utility has failed to take the public welfare into con sideration, and which tine city commission $ strangely oEerlooks in its haste to grant the franchise extensions. One of these questions is the paving of First avenue, demanded by the public welfare and refused by the utility; and the other is the threatened curtailment of service on the Tidewater. There are other respects in which the public welfare is sub merged.
 The franchises are valuable and vital con- alterations. The thirty-five thousand dol lars the city would agree to accept for them is a sort of camouflage concealing the fact
 
 free gift and the sum offered mere tip. With the city commission apparently acting more as the agent of the utility to rescue it from a receivership, rather than as the ad- vocates of the public welfare, the people of tkis city may well wonder to what recourse they may turn in order to compel the sort of treatment due them from the utility, in- eluding not only transportation service, but also the maintenance of municipal authority over all items within the municipal prov ince. For example, the municipality cannot afford to remain in the position of dividing it's authority over the streets with a utility that enjoys its franchises as an almost free gift of the municipality. The city commis- sion has been in strong strategic position to win back for the municipality that authority over it's own concerns that previous city governments have squandered. Let the con- mission not sacrifice that vantage ground. Let the city commission remember that its first duty is to the people of Birmingham and not the street-railway company.
