tuscaloosa, June 4-(Speclal. )-MrS Fred H. Jones, member of the faculty in the Livingston Normal college. and whose mother, Mrs. Virginia Hutchison, lives in this place, has Just completed tho ar engagement of a very ingenious game called History of Alabama" This Is somewhat on the order of several other education games that have lately been adopted in many schools throughout the state as successful helps In the study of the subjects upon which they bear.
 This one, however must. without doubt, prove absolutely interesting and of un- questionable instructive value. It will not only have the effect of being recreative and beneficial employment for school chill dren, but to any one who may be review ing Alabama history rapidly for an ex- animation or other purpose, the cards will be of great assistance Prominent edu- cators who have examined Mrs. Jones' game have urged it's publication, and she has decided to take their advice, and is having the game prepared here for distribution.
 Mrs. Jores' accomplishment ir this mat ter is not only testimonial to her un- usual ability, but at the same time proof of her deep interest in her work. Her Tuscaloosa friends, as well as others over the state, will be glad to know that she has been reelected as one of the teachers in the Normal school at Livingston, of president.
 A committee of citizens, consisting of Speaker A H. Carmichael, J. E. Isbell and Dr. Clarke of Tuscumbia, came down to investigate our dspensary today for what benefit might be derived in adopt ing plans for the one In Tuscumbia. MT. Carmichael did not get to the city, how ever, having been detained in Birning- ham.
 Tuscumbia has already voted on this matter and dispensary will be started there July 1. Dr. Clarke was elected dis penser, and MT. Isbell represented the city council A committee from Sheffield was also down here last week on the same mission From this 1t looks very much as if we had a model dispensary in Tusca- loosa. The people here have been think ing this for some time, and the opinion of sister cities in this regard is very gratifying. Both committees expressed themselves as having received some very valuable information with respect to the proper manner in which to conduct such business.
 A meeting of the Tuscaloosa Music club, the last of the season, was held at Miss Harris studio last night. The finances of the club were reported to be in good con dition. It was decided at this time to limit the clubs membership hereafter, voting all of the present members in, however.
 Those joining after this will have 10 be elected. It was also decided that the club shall meet twice a month instead of once, as heretofore.
