NOTES IF THE WEEK IN WORLD IF SOCIETY Returning Summer Wanderers
 Enter New Gateway NOTES HERE AND THERE House Party Guests and Week-End People and Summer Tourists
 Appear Like Strangers
 at New Terminal.
NOTES HERE AND THERE

Returning summer wanderers have found themselves entering Birmingham through it's new gate way. the new rail- way terminal, and 1t is quite like enter ing a strange city. For so many years the little station at Twentieth street and Morris avenue has witnessed departures of all the summer colonies, tender fare- wells and expectant returns. Gay tour ists just back from foreign lands have passed through the little iron gates. Hap py parties of school girls have passed in and out the crowded waiting room. The oiu dilapidated station has been covered more than once with rice and the flower petals of a brides bouquet. Much of tue real life of Birmingham could be seen in the historic little station to which Greater Birmingham has in some meas ure said farewell.
 hundreds of people who left through the old gateway are now returning by the Fifth avenue terminal blocks away from the old. It's unfinished towers are like crumbllng ruin at nlghtfall or in the early dawn. The gateway to Bir- mlngham seems incongruous in eompar- ison to officials in bright uniforms, and the stranger who passed through 1t might be excused in thinking that he had ei tered a curiously constructed place oI temporary detention, walled in to d dizzy height. The new terminal seems like q vast unfinished exposition build ing.
 It's immensity can hardly be realized and the summer wanderer whose lncom- ing train arrives during the confusing hours of night finds himself almost a stranger in a strange land. It is almost a like sensation that a resident of Bir- minghGm might have a hundred years from now if permitted to re-enter the gateway to the city.
 House party guests, people going to nearby places for the weekend find themselves hurrying to catch their trains departing from the new terminal. The | car routes seem strange, the coachmen are receiving new instructions. Every l thing seems turned out of it's ordinary 1 channel. turned in the direction of the new But gradually things are being ad- | justed, made subservient to the new or 1 der, but, meanwhile. more than one week | end guest has been belated for his train and auto speeds have been broken be- | cause people have not quite grown ac- customed to the location of the new ter 1 mna.
