ST. PAUEs CHURCH.
Father canepa Delivers His First Eng
lsh Sermon-Able Effort.

The Rev Father Canepa occupied the
pulpit at ST Paul's church last night and
preached to a large congregation. He is
pastor of San Marcos church, and his
congregation being composed of Italians
he breaches a sermon every Sunday in
the italian language. His discourse at
St Paul's was his first pulpit effort in
English. Those who heard him spoke In
highly complimentary terms of his SER
mon. His theme was the overruling
Providence-the allwise and all-merciful
purpose of God in dealing with His chill
dren. Even when He sent trials upon
them, said the preacher, 1t was for the
good of their souls.
The conclusion of his sermon was that
Christians should not rebel against God
when afflicted, but accept the DEGREES of
Heaven as the discipline of a loving
Father, who knows what is best for all.
Father Canepa is a native of Genoa
He came to Birmingham only four or five
years ago, but has In that time formed a
large acquaintance not only among the
italians, but among the people of JEFF
ferson county generally

DOING GREAT WORK
FOR COUNTY HEALTH

The Jefferson county sanitary commits
sion has probably done as much toward
the reduction of typhoid fever in the
county as any other agency and is still
keeping an eye open toward the health
of the district. Under the leadership
of President F. Y. Anderson, during the
past year, springs have been condemned
and every effort has been made to purify
the water which is used for drinking
purposes.
Filthy streams have been turned into
the sewer and many other steps have
been taken looking toward the improve
ment of health conditions.
The commission is permanent organ
ization, created by the legislature and
will continue in existence until abolished
by legislative act. 1t is now engaged in
helping the suburbs connect with the
county sewer and thus further improving
health conditions. This work is possible
on account of the economy used in build
ing the sewer system and the fact that
a sum was left over.
While the members are working with
out remuneration 1t now employs Julian
Kendrick, engineer, for $50 a month and
r. b. Smyer as secretary and attorney
for $50 a month. The necessity for their
work will continue for several months,
and after that the commission will be
run without any expense whatever.
There has been some suggestion that
now that the object for which they were
appointed has been accomplished, the
Board of Revenue could take care of
the storm sewer. This may be true at
some later date, but the commission will
probably continue In existence until the
next regular session of the legislature.
