The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-05-13

tions, who meet to exchange their views; report from the fields of the world; trans act business for the advancement of the material welfare of man: nor can these features, so prominent of later years, fail to impress the well-wishers of Birming ham at home and abroad with the fact that the eye of the world is upon her, and that she is coming un to the most hopeful expectations of those who have watched her developments, and who have always felt that nothing is too good for her and her people.
 No community can reach its highest prosperity in the material and business world or be in a position for it's fullest enjoyment. without the wholesome leayen of a healthy moral sentiment. sustained by liberal educational institutions and fostered by good and great church or ganizations with the rank and file of the people standing behind them as their basic foundation.
 In these. our people are favored to a marked degree. Birmingham is pre- eminently blessed with great public school system, splendid churches and church organizations, benevolent and fra ternal orders, with the powerful under lying. and cementing spirit of brotherly love, fostered and kept alive through their purifying influences.
 Her officers in high places will do credit to any city, self-sacrificing and devoted to duty and to right, as God gives them to see 1t; with a school board, superin- tendent and teachers that have unselfish- ly devoted the prime of their lives to this grand work, a work and the moving spirits that have so faithfully sustained it, of which our people may we'll feel a grateful pride.
 The great Methodist conference now in session here, with its devoted and distinguished representatives from all parts of the world, it's words of good cheer from alr lands and their noble lives as a monument of that faith which has been the sustaining power and influence of our wonderful western civilization, and of foreign lands. cannot prove other than an Inspiration to every good and gen. erous impulse that throbs within the soul of man; for after all. whatever we att tain as city and as people, it's true measure and real permanent prosperity is based upon religious and educational institutions, for all material development and attainments are as sounding brass and tinkling cymbal without them.
 It is useless to talk about corner lots, future values and developments, unless the foundations that sustains them are firm.
 It is an excellent feature of the sit uation that, notwithstanding the recently constructed nine, ten and fifteen story skyscrapers for office purposes, that the offices in these buildings are spoken for by desirable tenants long before they are completed.
 There is a good demand for real estate for business houses, residences and tenant houses of every description. both from purchasers and desirable tenants.
 The demand for desirable and com fortable residences from good tenants and purchasers exceeds the supply.
 There are good interest paying invest ments and good Investments in vacant property thaty'will respond with liberal returns as rent payers to proper de- velopment.
 Let us hope for a continuance of this situation Very truly, B. F. EBORN,
