Four years ago Muscle Shoals was a whitq elephant; nobody-wanted it. The Tennessee river ran on its wav unchecked past the power dams and the nitrate plants wiere deserted. There was no evidence of life about the groat works. There is little stir there now, but it is the njost sought after project in the United State». Wide spread interest in it developed with the submission of ifenry F o rd ’s bid. Since then several powerful, syndicates seek1 to gain control of it under a 50-year lease. j Iji Muscle Shoals the potion Jias a mighty asset, an a ¿set for War as well as for p6ace. There never was a question as to the propriety of government operation dbring wrir time, but in peabe time it seems to be a pro position th at Congress is ditided, on.

Until the Prince of Wales marries dud bps children, and until the, young lady herself has a brother to share her nursery, she shares with her father, the Duke of York, the title of Heir Presumptive to the Crown. It is not on any divine right but on an act of Parlia- ufeut th a t the title depends. If the hereditary principle is followed it is because it is convenient», not because it is’ Sacred. In the United States is it possible to elect a President |»y vote. In the British Commonwealth, so scat tered and so varied in race, religion and culture, no fran chise is conceivable whereby a President could thus be chosen- The crown is therefore a symbol of sovereignty, npt the fact itself. It is a symbftl to which <»ne-qenrter of the human race admits a peaceful allegiance. CALL AND SEE OUR DOORS You will be pleased with the quality and workmanship. * BY CHARLES P .
