DRAWING THE LINE

Oh we sigh to taste some cocoa liks
our mothers used to make,
And we yearn to get a slice of bread
like that they used to bake;
But, maybe we're ungrateful, Yet we're
sure we do not care
To feel once more a slipper like our
fathers used to wear.

PRISONERS AGAIN
 FORGED TO WALK

Once more the police department Is without a patrol wagon and the officers and their prisoners are doing physical cul- ture stunts as they wend their way to the city hall. An extra large haul" consist ing of six negroes, was made yesterday away out in North Birmingham. When the patrol driver arrived on the scene he looked at the crowd and then he looked ct the old vehicle that has been laboring under the name of a patrol wagon for the last few years.
 Finally it was decided to make two loads of it, and three prisoners with two policemen were piled into the omnibus When the horse started the shafts and the carriage parted company and the result was that the "sextet" was walked to the jail and unfortunates of their same class have been doing the same thing ever since.
 Truly and indeed Birmingham Is in need of the contemplated improvement in tho patrol branch of the police department. No one knows this any better than the off, ficers because their work has been made much harder and more disagreeable by the temporary absence of a serviceable patrol wagon. "Just wait till we get that automobile" is the expression much heard about the station.

B|RM|NGH AM FARES WELL IN THE CENSUS All Industries of District Will
 Be Classified NO NEW PosToFFICE NOW Underwood Writes Babb It Is Out of Question This Session But Ex-
 poets Success When Cen
 craI Bill Is Drawn
NO NEW PosToFFICE NOW

Another letter from Congressman Oscar w. Underwood to Secretary Babb of the Chamber of Commerce inoloses a letter from Director of the Census Bureau E. D. Durand, which absolutely verifes the statement that Birmingham will not only get the figures in the census showing her industrial strength within the corporate limits, but the whole district as well.
 In his letter to Congressman Underwood Mir Durand says: Tn presenting these statistics for Birmingham proper 1t will be necessary to give total for the es- tablishments that are located within the corporate limits of the city, but it is my intention to also present statistics that will show the importance of the Bir- mingham industrial district which will necessarily include the surrounding towns and rural districts. I believe this arrange ment will accomplish the object you have in view
 Congressman Underwood says that Bir- mingham cannot possibly get new post office appropriation from this session of Congress.
 In letter to Secretary Babb of the Chamber of Commerce he states that nothing can be done until a general pub lie building bill is drawn up by the ap- propriations committee, and it Is entirely probable that no such bill will be taken up until the short session after adjourn ment.
 MT. Underwood is of the opinion that the increased population and standing of Birmingham and the enormous business or inc office will guarantee success when the time comes to strike. At the neces- sary moment the Chamber of Commerce will send a strong delegation to Wash ington to appear before the committee.
