MORE TRUTH THAN POETRY
You never kiss me now" she said;
By s. E. RISER

You never kiss me now she said; Her eyes were dulled by startling tears ; T wonder if your love is dead?
 How have failed you through the years Have l grown old before my time, Or changed so much in other ways? In whispered prose and wistful rhyme
 You used to please me with your praise. Do you remember how you cared
 When once we said our brief good-byes, k Our confidence gladly shared,
 And tender longing in your eyes? The things l touched you used to say
 Were sacred, after that, to you; How have I failed in any way
 To earn your kindness or be true?" Her shoulders dropped, her arms were thin,
 The gloss was missing from her hair; Deep lines had formed around her chin,
 But once she had been young and fair Once he had thought that life could not
 Be cheerful if she answered no, But it was long since he forgot
 With tender smiles to tell her so He fingered at the door to gaze \ A moment into her dimmed eyes. And cheered her with some words of praise, /, Which happened to be pleasant lies; He kissed her, and then rushed away,
 His mind on money-making schemes, And all that blissful, precious day
 She spent in dreaming sweet old dreams

BUSINESS FORCES AHEAD

|. Railroad car orders, placed and pend- ing, total more than one million tons of steel, and the unified tonnage of the United States Steel Corporation con- tinues to show an increase monthly These are doubly encouraging facts, be- cause they represent a pronounced im- provement in the steel situation since last November, and they are indications of. industrial prosperity for 1924. The untitled tonnage of the Steel Corpora tion at the end of November showed a decrease under the preceding month, and this decline had been evident for sev- eral months in succession. The turn of the year, however, found a pronounced upward tendency both in steel and iron, and those industries are consolidating their gains and preparing for still greater improvement. Indications are that the Steel Corporations bookings will show an even greater increase for February. V American railroads are expected to consume fully thirty per cent. of the nations steel output in 1924, and their liberal equipment buying shows lessen- ing of the apprehension which the pros pect of presidential year" induced some months ago: Business is forging ahead in spite of politics.

VALUE OF UNDERSTANDING
By wICKRS WAMBoLDT o

If l were asked to designate a word which, in my opinion, would be the key to harmony in mans relation to man, would say unhes- tatingly: Understanding" It is lack of un- derstanding that is responsible for most of the discords and conflicts between people. Would one man mistreat another if he could under, stand how the other man would feel about it He would not Because if he could enter fully into the other mans distress it would be just the same as mistreating himself.
 Would husband ill-use a wife if he could feel with her the anguish she suffers?
 wife be unkind to her husband if she could know his lacerated feelings? Would a man murder another man if he could appreciate the agony of the man he would murder and the anguish of those who love him? fAfs
 Furthermore, if we could look behind the scenes, we would often feel sympathy in- stead of resentment when people treat u0 in ways that are not to ourliking. If . man were discourteous to you, you would not hold it against him if you knew his attitude were induced by the nerve strain of financial diff culties. Particularly would you forgive him if you knew that in his heart he had deeply regretted the incident as soon as it occurred.
 lou would not resent what appeared to be carelessness on the part of n delivery boy who left the wrong package or left none at all If you knew he were hurrying to get home to sick mother. You would hesitate to shoot burglar who entered your. home, II you Knew ne were doing It for SICK wife and starving babies, You would make full allowance for the snappishness of a captank- erous person. if you knew it were due to- can. cer of the stomach
 believe the first thing that will have to come to us will be an understanding attitude toward our fellow man before we can have world peace or any kind of peace. Without Understanding. love itself falls short We often hurt those we love through failure t6 understand.
 believe if we could know the heart and motives of out fellow man. no matter who he is or what he has done. we should feel a sympathy for him; and with sympathy would come love; and then crime and conflict would pass For who would mistreat where he un- derstOod and loved? You need fear no man who understands and loves you. And no man need fear you whom you understand and love. There is saying, "To understand all is to forgive all'

Mobiles Big Vote Of Confidence

Mayor Taylor of Mobile intention, ally or otherwise. had attempted to create the impression that his home town was for the power companies The people quickly resent ed and repudiatcd the expression by going on record as above. Beyond the employees of the Alabama Power Company, in this neck of the woods the Daily Times has made the assertion thnt it is doubtfNl if the ratio of support would compare eveli ns favorable for the power companies us was reflected in Mobile Fact is, if the sentiment here was checked up. the chances are the verdict would be nearer thousand to one than seven hundred to one.

ORGANIZING AGAINST MALARIA

: There is no better evidence of pro- gressive spirit and enterprise in the Ten nessee Valley than the cooperation of it's people in their efforts to eliminate malaria, disease which is a real barrier to progress in every field of endeavor. Sincere efforts have been made from time to time to stamp out this malady in North Alabama counties; but failure to make complete job resulted from lack of close coordination of all health units.
 Colonel Wrightson, a son-in-law of the late lamented Gorgas, learned much from the distinguished surgeon general about ways and means to eliminate malaria, as well as yellow fever and typhoid, and laid the anti-malaria groundwork in several North Alabama counties. MT. J. L. Rec tor, a practical sanitary engineer, who has been assigned the task in that sec tion, is convinced that the undertaking can and will be successfully consum- mated. It is encouraging to the people of that section to note the assistance offered by the Tennessee Valley labora- tory which is already showing valued re- suits.
 The task is not only big one, but re- auires much time, To remove the many breeding places of mosquitoes in a large territory is an undertaking that requires

Agrees With Mir. Edison

To the Editor of The Age Herald
 In Birmingham newspaper yesterday there appeared an advertisement of one of the large banking institutions of our city. This advertisement carried a pie ture of President Lincoln, under it was the words, "All Men Are Born EquaP'- Lincoln. Then were these words of the advertisement: "This is an eloquent fragment from the Gettysburg address, etc" Now it is true that Lincoln used these words, but the original was from the Declaration of Independence, which reads: "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and pursuit of happiness"
 Now, President Lincoln used the words, All men are created equal" in his Gettysburg speech. This address was delivered on November 19, 1863. The first paragraph reads: "Fourscore years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal"
 There are thousands of people who through misapprehension believe that our martyred president originated or coined this phrase. And just this morn ing l was called upon to settle a contro- versy over this Advertisement, one man contending that Lincoln originated this phrase and he other man thought it was from the constitution of our country, and another man thought the phrase was tO rnad III D Now, these gentlemen are only three among millions of Americans. It is pitt ful how very little the intelligent Ameri- can knows about the history of his coun- try, and about the laws of the greatest nation on earth.
 l blame our educational system for the gross ignorance of our "college grad uaSes." l have met these lads with their sheepskins and asked them what was the first amendment to the constitution and have received some disgusting re- plies. l have never found a modern graduate who could name the presidents of our country, but have found many who could prophecy who would be the next president
 Let me tell of professorI was under. who made us boys learn the presidents. with their respective vice presidents. the years of their births and death, the con- stitution, Declaration of Independence and many of the famous lectures and de- bates, including the Webster-Hayne de- bate. And today can remember the above named history as plain as the day l memorlZed same. He would not pass ! on our examinations until we had com nlitted the above to memory. But that class of professors is gone forever.

practical cooperation from individuals, corporations and public authority Money and labor alone will not perform the service. There must be appreciation by the people of the private as we'll as pub lie benefits, to be derived from success in the task. That the citizens of the Tennessee Valley are beginning to real; ize the heavy financial burdens, as well as the many other costs, of malaria, is evidenced by the. fact that they have resolutely entered into the task of re- moving the menace.

No Sense In One Crop System (Jasper Mountain Eaglel

The present high price of cotton threatens the, South with another economic disaster. Indications are that the whole South. from Virginia to the Rio Grande. is to be con verted into vast cotton field. The safety of Walker county farmers lies in diversifica- tion plant little cotton. yes, but let it be side line. The South is one of the greatest agricultural regions in the world but it can not prosper OH the one-crop system. Cotton growers will find themselves in the same predcament that the wheat growers of the West are now in if they turn a majority of their acres into cotton this year. There is no sense in a one-crop system in the South or in any other section of the country. Don't fall for it again.
