sMontgomery Is known as one or tne rhief railroad centers of the South. Its mkx trunk lines with their numerous hkanches and divisons make 1t a point of ereat interest to those who earn their lfving in the employ of the great cor pprations.
 A by no means small portion of the population of Montgomery consists of men who labor for these railroads. They have the sympathy and good wishes of the entire community because they are that class of men who contribute to the xsiaterial welfare of the community. EThese railroad men are well known In 1sairoad circles throughout the union. They are well organized and at their na- ebnaI meetings Montgomery and Mont kumery women-memhers of the auxiliary hodies-attract attention because of their shfelligence and earnestness.
 .Mrs. Ladye Whitehead Wright of Mont- aomery has the distinction of being na- tsonal odicer of the Ladies' Auxiliary to the engineers.

 An absurd and reprehensible destructive practice is the building of fires beneath a tree 'in order to get the draught." The fools that do this kill great trees for nothing but a campfire. There Is no sense in that wretched practice. A fire for camp cooking should be built in the open, and nothing is easier. A bare rock is the best place. and ifsyyou are to cook by 1t put up barrier of loose5etpn just extensive enough to make fire as large as kitchen stove would hold put q flat sto over these walls. and you have all you want.
