Well Known Aldbdn1idnS
In Birmingham Yesterday
By WALTER HARPER.

THE attendance at the next session of
the Alabama university promises to be
very largely increased over that of the
caloosa, who is doing some field work
for the university and who spent yes
terday in Birmingham.
srs'The establishment of the county high
schools over the. state is doing a great
work in preparing students for the uni
versity course. Graduates from the coun-
ty high schools can come direct to the
university and this will be a great feeder
for the higher institution when they are
in good running order over the state.
Tho entrance requirements of the uni
versity has been raised and many thought
tkat this was mistake. but 1t has
proven to be a very wise move. Some
thought that the advance work of educa-
ton in the state should begin at the bot
tom and work up. But the method Of
beginning at the top and pulling from the
bottom Is proving effective.
This plan will result. I believe, in
more rapid improvement in our school
system.

Clair county. The high school is located
at Odenville and, by the way, this is
one of the best in the state. Several
graduates from this school will probably
come to the university this year. The uni
versity has had but very few students
from st. Clair county heretofore.
I'VE want thousand students in the
state institution during the next few
years and believe we will get them
