 Birmingham News: The Easter souve- mir edition of the Age-Herald yesterday was a magnificent paper. containing thirty-two pages. brimful of interesting matter. profusely illustrated and liber- ally patronized by the business com munity. The Autographed cover, which represented the 'Phenix of the Present" was fitting emblem of greater Birming- ham, as 1t finds itself revivified after period of unprecedented depression and again on the threshold of a great indus trial and business revival which is des- tined to make it the grand industrial metropolis of the new south.

  columns evidenced, all spoke as in one voice of the dawning of a brilliant Easter morn of new life and renewed prosper ity for greater Birmingham and the dis trict tributary to it. Capt. Frank SP. O'Brien and his entire staff are to be con graduated on yesterdays issue.
