STEEP PLAINS CAUSE SWIFT
RISE OF ALABAMA STREAMS
Sharp T erraces of River Banks Pour Great
Volumes of Water Into Channels
at Terrific Speed

The Pea River empties into the Choc-
tawhatchee at Geneva. The BreWton
Castleberry, Flomaton and Montgomery
flood districts are in the Alabama
Tombigee watershed, in the western
half of the State.
The rivers in the loWlands have
myriad creek tributaries, due to the
pliable soil and lack OF high lands. With
three terraces to the average river,
water gains momentum more rapidly as
it nears the sea, and hence may deluge
communities one day and drain off the
next.
The usual excess Of rainfall of the
last week amounted to an avalanche of
water, and the larger rivers will not re-
cede as quickly as they usually do, &C.
cording to the Weather Bureau.

Confidence was expressed in the
Mississippi River levees as the fore
caster at Cairo, ILL.,. predicted crest

the next few days lent an optimistic
tone to the outlook as the mighty river
received waters from its tributaries.
Levee Blast Plot Fails.
Three sticks of dynamite were found
embedded in the main st. Francis River
levee, 8 miles south of Marked Tree,
Ark. officials who discovered the dyna-
mite while investigating the levee could
not determine the motive. Engineers
said the dykes of the st. Francis were
holding satisfactorily.
About 80 passengers on stranded
Louisville e. Nashville trains at Pas

Guard patrol boats to Mobile. TWO

Even Montgomery was apprehenSlve

forced to higher ground.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, March To-
The flood sections of South Alabama are
on the coastal plain, ranging from
few feet above sea level to 600 feet alti-
tude. and the cause of the swift rise of
the streams which empty into the Gulf
apparently was the terraced nature of
the river banks.
All the water draining off the Alabama
plain falls into the Tombigee- Alabama
watershed or the Choctawhatchee-
Chattahoochee watershed, one of which
is in the southwestern ocrner of the
State and the other In the southeastern
corner
The Elba and Geneva flood districts
are In the Chockawhatchee watershed.

A caravan Of 100 cars was used In

While some of the guardSmen, who
are under the command Of Col. w. E.

others we're engaged in pitching tents
in which shelter of sort was given to
the women and children, the aged and
the sick. Other guardsmen were as

and Red Cross workers in fighting dis

Several boats worked between this
camp and Elba today. bringing III the

Other craft moved on to isolated groups
which had found refuge away from the
town. carrying food and supplies to
them.
Around camp fires refugees stood In
long lines waiting their turn for the

GuardSmen were of the opinion that
it will be several days before Elba is flt
for occupancy again, although the water
was going down steadily today.

PsYchoanalYsis.

Dear Doctor: My boy, IL years old,
S feet tall and weighing IS pounds, has
three habits-working up his mouth and
eyes, for he says he imagines his eyes
are pasted together; throwing his head
back as if his hair were in his eyes;
then walking in the street he lifts one
foot up and rubs it against the other.
He seems healthy otherwise. Will he
outgrow these habits. MRS. r.
Your boy evidently has what is known
as tic, or habit spasm, Mrs. r.. ihese
habit spaSms may be started from
shock, where the movement Is used as
a defense. For instance-aS I've told
before-in our medical literature Is an
account of pugilist who was termed
by the explosion of bomb cropped
from a Zeppelin. He evidently mace
the movement of the shoulder and arm
as If avoiding a blow, and he continued
this jerky movement and facial GRIM
aces such as pugilist might make dur
ing a fight, even after the cause had
been removed.
The following is a definition Of tic
(tice):
Tic is a reflex defensive or voluntary
movement, which has assumed an I'M
peratlVe character. IL may COIlSlSI Va a
single movement, an isolated tic, or OF
a number of movements of different
muscles occurring at the same time or
in rapid succession; or 1t may be in the
form of a general tic. There are many
different movements, such as grinning,
sucking, shifting, biting, scratching,
noddlng, hair pulling, etc. Your boy
has still others.
Usually there is an unstable nervous
system from some cause. Injury, mem
tai strain, intoxication (this doesn't
necessarily mean alcoholism, but tox-
emia, or poison in the blood, from some
reason), are the exciting factors.
Tic differs from St. Vitus dance
. (chorea) in that the movements are
always the same stereotyped move
ments, and always involve the same
group or groups of muscles, while those
of st. Vitus dance are never performed
twice in the same way and are apt to
be generalized. (St. Vitus dance Is be-
Aeved to be one of the manifestations
, of acute rheumatism in children. with
an acute infection as the cause. coupled
with malnourishment and anemia)
| The Freudian school of psychoanal-
ysts believes that the tic is the express
sion of some suppressed purpose and
| it is a defense compromise which gives
relief to that patient. Psychoanalysis
has cured some patients.
