The JEFF-CO-HI Volume X Published by the Students of Jefferson County High School 1926 Foreword Once more Father Time is about to draw the curtain on the first act of life. . Ill the scenes and moments of intense excitement including joys and sornnes. triumph v and failures, friendships and comradeship go to make up the first part of this great drama. IVe shall hare left only the faint memory of those many scenes and as time wears on the picture will grow still dimmer. In order to preserve the memory, to some small extent of this great play zee hare put forth a feeble effort to re-enact a feze of the outstanding events of this drama by publishing this, the loth edition of the Jeff-Co-Hi. I wish to express my appreciation to alt those whose assistance has served toward making our annual a success. I extend my special gratitude to the splendid cooperation of the Staff, the unfailing efforts of our Advisors. especially Miss Trances Finley ami Mr. .Iran1, and to the business men who have done so much toward making our annual possible.

Thirty seven 1926 JEFF-CO-HI 1926 IIOTIKNNINMIllMlMIMilllMIMI President's Address Friends, Faculty and Fellow Students: We seize this occasion to commemorate an epoch in the history of our lives. Four years of sacred association and study have elapsed since we entrusted our hearts to the watchcarc of our Alma Mater. Now we are four years older and youth is fleeting. Are we four years better? lias time been such a thief as to steal away four endearing golden years and leave not full measure in recompense? It is for you to answer, my gallant comrades, in deeds, not words! In thoughts, not breaths! We may feel better, we may act letter! Rut in the mirror of Reality do we reflect well rounded figures, saturated with truth and quajity, full-Hedged characters that shrink not front danger nor quail under massive difficulties that inevitably await—or are we pigmies in character and personality? Surely Fortune has not been so unkind and perchance in some momentous year of the unfathomable future, we may clasp hands in the Hall of Fame and receive there the greetings of our hearts. “Well done, good friend, true and tried, enter into the joys of thy labors! Accordingly, we assemble thi- day amid highest hopes and aspirations ami invite our friends and guardians to bear testimony of the first fruits of our labors, as proof of that which is to follow when we shall have launched on the swelling tide of the sea of Life. We know of no greater satisfaction than that received in expressing our deepest gratitude and thanks to those who have made this day possible. To our instructors wc Owe lessons of thrift and honesty and tact for which we shall l� c forever grateful. To our parents wc owe the possibility of an education and thus enlightened ami proportionate life, which cannot he measured in terms of value. To our school we owe allegiance. To one another, love and friendship as lasting and lustrous as the planets that burn in the infinite ether T i all, our thanks! And now we come to the termination of our thoroughfare in the Jefferson, when wc shall pass our heavy hearts from under the emblazoned. Gobi and Blue and unfurl to the morning breeze the illustrious Stars and Stripes. Many of us. perhaps, will cast our fortune with the colors of some wayside academy or college. Whatever wc do. wherever wc go, may we. as staunch Jeffersonians, radiate power and conviction and loyalty, and serve zealously the flag, wherever it floats, with which we place our trust' But let us preserve a choice place in our lives for the streaming banner of our high school days, and may the earlier rays of the rising sun, till that sun shall set to rise no more, draw forth from it daily, a strain of universal harmony which strikes a responsive chord in every Jeffersonian heart throughout the land. Thirty-fight 1926 J EFF-CO-H I 1926 The past looms indistinctly in the shadows of the western horizon: the future is yet in tlu depths of oblivion. We may look to the latter in terms of the former work and thou shall have. More vital than the most effective intellectual training is the temper and aim with which the youth prosecutes his work. Let us remember that the same power that guides through the boundless sky the flight of the wild bird in the change of seasons, will lead our steps eventually to the goal of our ambition, if we will act with unvarying steadiness in pursuance of that determination. It is in man and not in his circumstances that the secret of his destiny lies. For most of us that destiny will lake its final Ixint towards evil or good, from the habits of mind thought and life that we have acquired •luring onr high school career. Doubtless there arc already many of us. who are lighting, with mature and manful courage the battle of life. When these feci lonely amidst the crowd and over taxed with difficulty, which is tlu rocking cradle of all excellence: then they are conscious of poverty and self denial, let them he conscious, too. that a sleepless eye is gazing on from His watchtower in the skies, that their friends are watching anxiously, that their school is watching and waiting and that their honest efforts are surely assisted! One tidal wave of enthusiasm that characterizes our high school will sweep away all obstacles, and we shall rise, as at the dawn of a new day. with renewed strength and vigor, to meet the duties and perplexities that arc sure to follow. Let us say then, that at least, one crowd of young Americans has gone out into the wide world who knows how to cope with problems and how to work together for the good of all. Herman Higiinbotham. Class President '26. 7 Airfv mint mumwmu miiiiiaiii 1926 iintiimifiuaunmuianmnumniianiiii 1926 JEFF-CO-HI Class History Four years ago the present Seui«� r Class began its climb to these heights sublime. which every student calls graduation. The way has been long and tiresome, but nevertheless a way of happiness and great significance. In I‘ 22. when we entered Jefferson County High School as Freshmen. we ga .ed askance at the many sights and persons around us. We were inexplicably fascinated by the lordly manner of the Seniors. As we were designated by the upper classmen as Verdant Freshies, wc took as our motto Green but Growing.” As a young plant in the lirst spring of its life, despite the cold wind and the winter frost, becomes covered with tiny, delicate tendrils and i still able to put forth an occasional pink blossom or two, just so, wc budding Freshmen, in the spring time of our school life, tired with ardent enthusiasm and zeal, had our spirits constantly dampened by the rebukes of the faculty, the domineering commands of the upper classmen and the cruel “ratti ig of the self-righteous Sophomores, were yet able to put forth a few rare blossoms, a promise of future fruitfulness. After a while wc had become sophisticated enough to be ranked as Sophomores. The number of rare blossoms that had shown promises of future fruitfulness in our Fresh man year had increased with the addition of a few more names added to the honor roll. Yet somehow wc were no longer fresh and ticing tolerated by the teacher for nine months more, the records showed at the close of school that wc hail reached the third step on our upward climb. Wc had begun to feel more capable and to believe that wc knew how at last to obtain the most from our high school life. In fact, we were continued in the belief that there was not a single weak spot in our armor, yet as wc advanced further wc found our foundation less secure and more than once we were compelled to rely upon the assistance of the loyal seniors. And now as the Seniors of ’26, when wc allow our thoughts to ramble at length over the four years oi our high school life, there rises within our breasts a mingled feeling of sorrow for the efforts not accomplishes! and of joy for those which were not in vain closely intermingled with hope of better achievements builded on past failures.

It is hard to believe, I replied, but amazing, if so. Would you care to try it out? my friend, the chemist asked. I don’t know, I answered, but if you will explain it a little more fully, I may. It is this way, the chemist began, You see this substance has the power to unveil the future: it will also give you a mental picture of anything you wish to see. As the chemist said this, there flashed on my mind a chance to get the prophecy of the Senior Class of '26 of Jeff-Co-Hi by peeping into the future and seeing how Old Dame Age was going to handle my classmates. After getting the chemist's assurance that there was not any danger in it. I agreed . ■ experiment. The chemist seated me in a nice comfortable chair, handed me a glass of colorless liquid and then told me to drink it. He then said. Don’t try to concentrate or resist the spell but let your mind be a blank-then make your first wish. 1 leaned lack in the chair wishing to be on the desert where the future of the entire Senior Class could Ik- revealed to me. For a moment everything was black then there dawned on my mind a picture of the desert. On a picturesque oasis in this hot desert. Melvin Crawford has a harem and has liecome a real sheik in his ripe old age. Melvin may 1 e the sheik hut the real boss i Katharine Adams who Melvin has won with his intoxicating smile. Mrs. Crawford drives away the blues by having a few of her friends. Katharine DcShazo. Mice Kllard. Edna Spain, and Annie Ruth Sorrell, out most of the time. Melvin, to entertain his wife's guests, has installed a radio and invites a few of his pals. George Lewis Dyer. Milton Turner, Fred Loveless ami Riley McHugh out every now and hen. They do their share in entertaining his wife's guests. By the way, Sheik Crawford is making his money by raising horses, I mean camels. Lane autield. Robert Cole and dtnira! Bishop have charge of them and are doing splendidly. Even out on the desert Melvin still has his opponents in that Bluford Marsh and Woodley Abernathy have Income fond of the camels and play the part of the Piper Peter by leading them astray. I wished to l� c in old Bagdad. No sooner wished than 1 was there. The latest news of P agdad is that James O'Brien, the new leader of the forty thieves, has kidnaped a rich merchant's daughter. Rebecca Compton. They said Rebecca didn’t make much of an effort to free herself.

It was the Arnbrosc-Campbell Tea Room. It was a high class tea room. They had an orchestra composed of Herman Cunningham. Albert Abney, Mack Crowe. Paul Kincaid. Alonzo Perry, and Leon Wall, who rendered fantastic music. When business was slack, Bessie Shoemaker gave a solo dance which started business rushing again. The hot coffee was very satisfying and restored me to my normal temperature, so I decided to go to look on the sports. large crowd had gathered around a pond where Joe Brewer and Ruth Gibson, his partner, was giving the crowd some thrills in fancy ice skating. Joe was now a fat man in tin circus and spent his winters here in Switzerland. Aiter watching Joe and Ruth a while. I wished to he in gay Parce. s I drifted down a street a sign, Lindsay-Lee Exclusive Gown Shop. Gowns Shown on Living Models, attracted my attention. I shall never forget that scene. A few of the outstanding models were Cora Tyler, Oplc Keith, Eva .YlcAnnally and Irene Estes. I didn't look at the clothes very much The four girls had dazzling offers front Ben Skelton, who now has Mack Scnnctt's place, to liccomc some of his bathing licauties. Cora. Oplc and Eva already wealthy, were planning to retire. Irene was undecided whether to accept or not. I wanted to view Paris so I walked over to a cab stand. Here Zelda Vanzandt was running a line of cabs through the city, and as they were not Fords. I took a second look at them. There at Douglas Sanders and Howard Roddam as two of Zelda's drivers. Zelda once employed Ailccn St. John and Margaret Smith, hut they lava me rich and settled down before the end of the year. As none of the girls were present I boarded Howard's taxi and started out to see Paris. After seeing all there was to l e seen. I set sail for New York. I had a pleasant voyage. I saw the captain of the steamer who was none other than Amos Sewell. Hugh Goodwin was radio operator on the ship. My sweet tooth was crying for candy as we pulled into harbor. Setting out to satisfy it I ran upon Annie lav Welch ami Annie Mac Towers who operated a candy shop. Their celebrated home made candy was known far and wide. Charles Farley and O. B. Locklear were still buying candy for the ladies. Now. Hilda Manners was the recipient of the candy and Charles was leading by a pound. Walking down the street eating my candy. 1 saw in large electric lights, the following words: The Long Fellow’s Paper Hanging Company; Herman Higginbotham, President: Hubert Lindbergh. Vice-President : Joe Moore, Secretary and Treasurer. Well, our President is -.till a President. Reading farther I saw that they used stilts two feet high and had no ladders. They could hang paper with much case this way. 1 wandered down to the depot, saw the trains pulling in and out. When the Pan-American pulled in, there was Willie Austin as the engineer, Clifford Cilery, the conductor. and Ben Waidc, the flagman. Forty-two 1926 JEFF-CO-HI 1926 ItMMIttttlllNMttl When I saw the Pan-American headed south, I wished to be in Birmingham. There I was on Second Avenue. I thought 1 would get a shave so went into a barber shop which hap| cncd to be run by Gara Riddle and Austin Love, tiara, who had an eye for business, had ladies for his barbers among whom were OzcHa Terry. Freida NVeidenbach and Mary Rollins. The three ladies now owned their Own homes and a Stutz each, and Mary had Rockefcllow. Jr. for her chauffeur. I had to wait a long time for my time, but before I left I bail a hair cut. massage, and shampoo. Feeling so well I thought I would take in a show, but as my attention was attracted to a large poster whit h told me the Rev. Will Calvert, the great evangelist, was in town and would preach tonight on the subject of “Throw all Alcohol into the River.” Rev. Calvert was to be supported by the female quartette composed of Alma Turner. Dennis Hill. Film Mood am Norma Vines, whose important number was to be Shall We Gather t The River Mamie Faucett was to accomimny them on the piano. Remembering the Rev. Calvert and the members of this famous trio, as schoolmates of other days. I went to hear them rather than go to a show. The message brought was wonderful and the music was so soothing that I dropped off to sleep, awaking just in time to drop my contribution into the plate which was being passed by Davis Denton and Arthur skew. Davis surely was good as a collector—was just as good as when he collected the Seniors' ring money. He really gathered the- donations at this meeting. An announcement which startled me very much was the one made by the Rev. Calvert, who stated that Virginia Westwater and Victor Jones were to be married soon. Mr. Jones’ uncle from Alaska, who had made a fortune picking cotton there, had died and left Victor the sole heir to his fortune. Victor, who had l een serenading Virginia for quite a while with tionhdhs, flowers, et cetera, had finally received his better half’s-to-he, promise. Thad Kentton was to have the honor of living tin best man. Frank Carter was to have charge of the ring until it was needed: lie keeps it in a safe place, having it now deposited in a pawn shop. The bridesmaids were to Ik: Sarah Overby. Koran Costner, Klwyn Parker and Jessie barley—Jessie will Ik- a bridesmaid provided Virginia’- marriage takes place before hers does. The head usher was to Ik- Clarence Simmons, bred Me Duff, who still was noted for his singing, with Severah Robinson was to render that lieautifitl selection entitled. “Going Off To War.” Victor was not thinking of the expense at all. The papers stated that it would Ik- the largest and most In-antiftil wedding of the season. F.lsic Holmes, Mina Lee Boutwdl and Beatrice Seeley were to be the chief throwers of rice and shoes. Returning to my home I found a message telling me of the death of a very dear friend of mine who lived in a small Western city. I then remembered that Robert Cook was the only physician there and also that Edward Black and Felix Erwin were in the undertaking business there. I wondered if Robert Cook could he a silent partner of the firm. As 1 read this sad news a cloud of darkness enveloped me. When I revived 1 was in the chemist's room. I have given you the view of the future as I saw it while under the influence of the preparation of the chemist. W hethcr it 1h- true or not I cannot say. There is only One who can vouch for that, hut I do say. “if you follow the Golden Rule laid down by the Great Prophet, your days will lie long and filled with all that heart can desire.

Members of Faculty, and Fellow Students: As we come to the day in our lives on which we arc to receive the due reward for our labor and study demanded to fulfill the requirements or our High School Covenant, let us pause for a moment to think of the lessons we should have learned from the previous ex-pcricnces of our lives. From these may we receive some lesson that might assist and benefit us in our future lives. hirst, let us remember this, and may the grades which we have gotten during the term, confirm it. that Whatsoever a man soweth. that shall he also reap. This rule. Classmates, greatest of all the rules of life. I should have you iollow in your heart tonight, as we prepare to launch ourselves upon the ea of life, to do that task which the world sets for each. As another word of advice, let me caution: whatever you do, classmates, do it well, ami may it Ik said of us. in following this rule, that whatever task we perform, we do it well. Again: This above all t � thine ownsclves l� c true: thou canst not then l� c false to any man. And now. classmates, let us resolve to do our best for the world, and the world in turn will give of its l est to us. Then when our course is run we shall Ik able to quote the immortal lines of Longfellow: Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime. And departing leave behind us Foot|rriuts on the sands of time. Footprints that perhaps another Sailing o'er life’s solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother Seeing, shall take heart again.

So flooded with legend and lore would the volume be that the whole world would tremble from the stampede caused by people rushing to secure a copy, Gara Kiddle stands flatfooted in number ten boots as an example of the above statement. When he entered Jefferson he could only drink milk and eat ice cream. Now he weighs 242 pounds and can boast of satisfactory digestive powers. Having introduced Student Government in our school we have chosen a very interesting squad oi officers. Victor Jones, the president, stands in his exalted position ami waves his wand of authority over the impils with a gentle yet firm hand. It has been estimated that it all the presidents of our great nation for the past years, were to assemble their policies and submit them to our president, he might be able to add lists of advice gained from his team of administration. Dignity and poise are two characteristics which our Class is proud to possess. There’s Kd Black, Chief of Police, who treads the halls with martial air and a great sense of dignity. Hubert Lindbergh, Judge of the Police Court, has given enough days for Misdemeanors committed by the girls and hoys, to surpass the days of Methuselah. We arc not lacking in literary statistics, for does not Ruliert Cook. Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, burden the public with punk poetry and in speaking, frantically “saw tin air too much with hands, using words as long as he is? It is more than probable that if some of our fair lads and lassies grow any taller or any fatter, sonic method of dodging the moon must he employed. If we suggest hinges, then the principles of architecture will have to lie modi fled. We mention no names. We must tell you that it has l ccn recently estimated that if the cost of all the cosmetics used by the Senior girls and hoys were computed, it would amount to a sum large enough to huv a new coat for Joe Brewer. And yet the Secretary of Public Safety recently gave orders for an increased supply of vaseline to coat the heads of the Jefferson Sheiks. An unwise order, we call it! Lack of space prohibits my giving you more statistics. However, in behalf of the Class of ’26, I close by hoping that Jessie Farley will l e happy in her new environment. O. B. Ij� k ki.fak.

Fo rt-texen 1926 JEFF-CO-HI 1926 The Last Farewell J-.’iM dawns the hour that we in grief must part, Hut duty calls afar and we must go; I he sad farewell shall touch each bursting heart. And tears of grief from each moist eye shall flow. O parting hour! Thou eomest fain to soon. The joys we felt increase the grief we bear; Our saddened hearts cn out in mournful tune And shift the loads of joy for those of care. O grief, but Slay thy hand for one fond hour. The nation calls, but Ah! 'tis sad to part; Vet do we feel the grasp of friendship's power And fond the smile from each encumbered heart. Vo nation rise and revel long in power. And seek thy fame from out this pool of blood; The flowers within this cloistered, studious bower Shall dauntless grow and bravely stem the flood. The grave shall claim the form of each alone. And death its hand shall press to every brow; Undaunted be and upward struggle on And give the world thy service and thy vow. Tho life shall press you in its clinching fold, nd shadows fall across thy paths ere long; The same fair course may you in virtue hold And face the world of evil with a song. Ignoble are the souls that quake with fear. And foul the lisping tongues that speak the lie; But hearts of truth the voice of God shall hear 'Tis but the souls of men that never die. The gleam of fame exceeds the glow of gold. And riches bought with souls are naught but dust; No heart the joy of life shall ever hold, Ensnared and wrapt by earth’s defiling hist. .So fare ye well. I bid my fond adieu, The unseen paths before us now unfold: But e'er fond friends to thine own selves Ik true And make thy lives a tribute to thy soul. Robert Cook. Class Poet, ’26.

The score was 7 to 0. another victory for the Wildcats. After a week of hard practice Coach dcYampcrt sent his cohorts against University High Game Cocks. During the first quarter there was no considerable yardage gained by either side. By continuously plunging the line, the Wildcats were able to score a touch down in the second quarter. Marsh and Skelton’s offensive playing put the Wildcats in position to score again in the hardest quarter. The game ended with Jefferson County 14 points and University 0. The Fairfield game came next on the Wildcats’ schedule, ftcr Jefferson had made a few runs, they knew they had met a stone wall. It was then too late, for Fairfield had intercepted Krwiu's pass and made a touchdown. They held the Wildcats the remainder of the game. The game ended 7 to 0.

Jefferson kicked to the Colonels and they brought the hail hack to the 30-yard line. After the third play they fumbled and the hall was recovered by a Wildcat. With a few plunges at the line the Wildcats were in scoring distance and soon gained their first touch d‘ wn during the first few minutes of play. I'rotn then oil until the end of the game Wood-lawn was on the defensive and could have used a subtracting machine rather than an adding machine to obtain their yardage. Krk Taylors defensive playing on blocking punts and other offensive work was the feature of the game. Barto:i s and Marsh’s offensive playing also featured for the Wildcats. The game ended 2H to (I. This in comparative seme makes Jefferson 2f to 0 better than either of tin two Citv schools. Woodlawn or Phillips. I lie last game, I.tit perhaps the most important one of the season was with Anniston. Anniston had won all their games until this time, having won one from the Boys High School of tlanta. (icorgia.

I was walking through a field. I could see dim shadows peeping from Miind the hushes at me. My nerves were utterly failing as I neared an old half torn down house. This house was called the haunted house. There had been an old stingy man who had inhabited it. He was so stingy that he would visit no one and wanted no one to visit him. Finally, this old man died. Some men dug a hole under the house and buried him in it. It was aid that this man came hack to visit his house every night at nine o'clock. He would stay exactly one hour and a half and then disappear. This was the reason that no one would live in the house. 1 began to run in order to pass the house as quickly as possible. Just as I was within a few steps of it. it began to rain very hard. What was I to do? I was a mile away from any house ami was two miles from my home. I had to take refuge in the old house. My knees knocked together as I went up the steps and my teeth danced within my mouth. I said to myself. “I'll just stay on the porch until it has ceased raining and then I can be on my way. The rain Itcgan to blow on me. I was forced to go inside. Then with trembling hands I gently opened the door and stcp| cd inside the room. There was scarcely any furniture iri the room. ti old-fashioned dresser was standing in one corner, a bed in another, a table in the middle of the room, with books on it. and an aged chair was sitting l� v the dresser. There seemed to lie nothing in tlu room at which one could he frightened, so I began to make the l cst of the situation. I sat down in front of the dresser and thought 1 would look through the drawers in order to pass away the time. (1 could still hear the rain heating heavily against the roof of the building I. Just as ! opened a drawer a hand came out slowly. It was about the sure of an ordinary man's hand. The lingers were outstretched and they seemed to get farther ai art as the hand came towards my chair. It went slowly under my chair, picked it up, and sat it on the other side of the room. The hand disappeared. As soon as I came to my se ises. I rushed blindly t«� the door. I was going to leave even though it was raining. To my surprise the door won hi not open. I tried in vain to open it. I gave up and seated myself once more. 1 was in a stupor. My brain ceased to function. I awaited my fate with a fast heating heart. I had been sitting there only a few minutes when I heard some unusual sound Thump! Thump! Thump! First they were slow, dull sounds; then, they gradually grew louder and clearer. The door Hew open and a man's head came bouncing into the room. It was the very image of the old man that had formerly lived here. It seemed to l e a head severed from the neck and the rest of the body. It would Ixmncc about a foot into the air. hit the floor and bounce another foot in the air. gradually coming forward all the time. It came in front of the dresser, gave a high bounce and landed on top of it. Its eyes were fixed upon me all the while. Suddenly the melodious sounds of music were heard from overhead. It was the sweetest music I hail ever heard. Then I heard several thumpintt sounds. Thump! Thump! Thump! The door flew open and in came twenty negro heads. Kach one was bouncing as the old man’s head had done. Those heads kept bouncing until they formed a ring around my chair. I could look down and see nothing but kinky negro heads around me. They were still jumping, keeping time with the music. I grew dizzy. I closed my eyes. When I opened them, one of these horrid negro heads was on my lap. As it smiled, its pearly teeth glistened at me. This was more than I could stand so I fainted When I became conscious. I was in my bed screaming to the top of my voice. My mother had to assure me I had been only dreaming. Trent Estes 26. One Hundred Siftern 1926 JEFF-CO-HI 1926 An Old Fashioned Garden One flay in October while rambling aimlessly. I suddenly discovered a time-worn path unseen by me before. It was a path which at one time had been used profusely but not of late. It was now barely discernible as I wended my way along the winding course. As I walked I literally drank in the beauty with which I was surrounded. The trees were vested in their Autumn splendor—leaves of gold, red and bronze. Mot a few had fallen to the ground with the strong breezes, and thus a slight rustling sound was produced as 1 made my way through the birch forest. At the sound a bushy-tailed squirrel scurried across my path, reached a hollow tree and chattered until another squirrel of similar appearance came into view. A bird burst into song directly to my right while the croak of frogs could be heard in the distant marsh. At once my reverie was broken as I suddenly reached the rise of a small hill; there the path was so steeply inclined it took my attention in climbing, liut at the top. what a wonderful view! A low stone wall encircled an old-fashioned garden. An arched gateway opened into the garden, so I boldly made entrance. To mv left climbing over the wall was fragrant clematis. As I mafic my way along the gravel path Hanked on one side by large purple asters, the other by great yellow chrysanthemums. I knew that 1 bad run across an old-fashioned garden of undying beauty.

Become the touches of sweet harmony. W11.1.1A M Sit A K US PE ARE. The soothing gray mantle of twilight has fallen on the toils of day as the curtain descends on a didactic drama. The black sky rises from the distant horizon broken here and there by feathcrly clouds, bright from the reflecting moon. The submissive sea engages in pacific play with the moonbeams from above. The cradle of the deep is .silent tonight. The orange tree swaying over the aquatic mirror below, harboring the nightingale a she softly and melodiously chirps the evening vesper, seems to embody rhythm itself. Harmonizing with her environs as only she can do. she sits upon the huge boulder rising out of the sea. with the poise of Victoria, gazing over Neptune's domain to the distant sail slowly and serenely swelling in with the southern tide. Her graceful form is clothed in an evening frock of rose pink georgette which might have been that of enu . Her arms are folded over a bouquet of late summer roses of the same pink gathered here by Pan himself. From around her stately neck a string of pearls, strung by Arnphy-trite's nymnhs. entwine in folds around her 1beautiful hands. Her bromine brown hair, her starry blue eves, her pearly white teeth outshine Helen of Troy as daylight does the night. The hour of dreams when all mortal thoughts turn to the Ideal of their lives—is upon her: and as she watches the distant sail come nearer and nearer we wonder at the thoughts. Is there an “only one of that vessel or is she waiting for the same one who “some time and some where will come? Victor Jones 26.

A Nation's Tribute Washington and Lincoln lived for the ages. The world joins the Nation in paying tribute to the memory of these men who gave unreservedly of themselves that certain ideals of right might prevail and that this country might live and find a place of high esteem among other Nations of the world. Great as were these men, the homely virtue of good common sense was at the bottom of the power that enabled them to carry the country successfully through one crisis after another. The practice of thrift in the broadest sense of the term was widely advocated by both Washington and Lincoln, and surely if these two men found thrift a practice to be commended, you and I will find it equally good to follow.

Paid political ad by Fred Fite. Title Guar. Bldg. A MAN OF EXPERIENCE Through the eternal fitness of the scheme of human endeavor, destiny produces a man for every duty to advance :ivilimtion. Often the electorate of a particular territory defeats that scheme by electing an ambitious aspirant, who has not the qualifications necessary to succeed. A number of years ago Chris Hartsfield worked as a coal miner at Pratt City. He was a union man, believing in the principles of the organization. His performance of those duties caused the authorities of Pratt City, to employ him to work town prisoners on the streets. In less than a year he had made the streets passable. That could not have been done in other ways. His performance of that duty caused him to be chosen as Chief of Police of Pratt City. He made Pratt City a safe place to live and do business. When Pratt City was brought into Greater Birmingham, he was made a City Detective. His record is well known. Walter McAdory was elected Sheriff of Jefferson County. One of the first deputies he selected was Chris Hartsfield. There were tragic days then, full of dangers. T. J. Batson was elected Sheriff of Jefferson County. One of the first men selected as deputy was Chris Hartsfield. The danger of that period, the turmoil are well known. In 1919 Chris Hartsfield was elected Sheriff of Jefferson C ounty. An upward climb, every step mode on personal merit. He carried into that office peace if possible, war if necessary. The man who toiled and the mnn who spins and the man who writes checks, all knew justice would be done by the Sheriff. He is cool. just, fearless, deliberate. He avoids difficulties and strife. He goes to get his man and gets him. Nepotism being illegal, he refused to employ his relatives under him. With a total of fifty-two employes he held this imperial County to a safe basis. The law denies a Sheriff to succeed himself. He is a candidate for Sheriff. He asserts he will do his full duty as man to mnn without fear or favor, if he is elected. He points to his record nnd by that record he stands flat-footed in the middle of the road that leads to public duty by one who served for salary paid by the public.
