the agitation, confusion and struggle
can advance come. After all, from
this standpoint, the last legislature

TEMPORARY PLAN
 FOR NEW DECATUR
Instructions Received to Separate the POstOffice From Deca-

Decatur, october 13.-(SpecialO- Postmaster William Moseley of De- catur received letter this morning from the department at Washington in- structing him to discontinue New De- catur as a branch of his office on De- tober 16, and to turn the office over to William A. Warner, who was some time ago appointed as fourth class post master of New Decatur Postmaster Moseley is instructed to transfer to the New Decatur office on that date the city carriers and four clerks, two clerks to receive an annual salary of S1100, one to receive 5000 and the other $500. Nothing, however, is said in the com munication to Postmaster Moseley how the rent, lights and heat are to be paid for the New Decatur office. The office is to be established as a fourth class office and MT Warner, as post master will receive for his salary the cancellation of stamps, but his salary cannot reach over 5000 a year.
 Under the present rules of the de- pertinent, as given them by Congress, it seems that the New Decatur post office will have to remain in the fourth class for one year before it can be

WORK OF LEAGUE
 OF SOCIETY GIRLS

An auxiliary to the Anti-Tubereulosls league which is doing q splendid work toward stamping out the disease, Is com posed of a group of Montgomery society girls. The league in that city is in q flourishing condition and 1t is due very largely to the young women's efforts, according to Montgomerian, who Is Nls- lting the Fair this week, that the people of the Capital City are displaying Guch a profound interest in the cause. In yes- terdays Advertiser Mrs. Owen wrote of the plans of the auxiliary to establish a booth at the fair grounds in that city next week. Commenting upon the endeay- OTIS of the little society, she said:
 "The splendid work of this band of young society women has challenged the admiration of every one who has ob- served it, and the fact that the victims of the disease whom the league aims to assist, as well as the public, which is the indirect beneficiary, are giving CO., operation to the work means that the well laid plans will in time be realized to the full.
 "The confidence that tubereular patients have shown in the league has been man. ifested by their willingness to take up their residence In the open air cabins in the league camp on the hills north east of the city, and in the heart of the forest
 Despite the downpour of rain on yes terday, the loyal young president rode cut to the camp to see how things were moving along. Night was falling as the rarty approached, and the lights from the single rooms, each standing to itself, made a cheerful impression.
 "The trained nurses in charge of the patients reported everything in a prom ising condition in their colony, and those natients who are confined to their beds called out their welcome at the sound of the familiar voices.
 'The row of cabins nearest the road side is occupied by white patients, and the negro patients are to the rear, and cabins being built upon the most ap- proved models devised by science for the care of tubercular cases.
 Fifty dollars is the cost of each cabin, and there could be no more humane ex- penditure of that sum than the gift of it to the league for the erection of more rooms, which are badly needed"

DEFER ELECTION
Calhoun Farmers Too Busy Now to
 Take Interest in Subject

Anniston, October 13-(Special.)- The election which was to be held in this county on November 15 to decide whether or not the county should is sue road improvement bonds in the sum of $30O,000 has been deferred. and no definite date has been set by the Calhoun county commissioners for the election.
 This was made known today. and the commissioners give as their reason for the change the fact that the farmers are too busy at present to gives the matter their attention, and it is prob- able that the election will not be held until next spring.
 There has been little interest manf- fested in the issue thus far, and the result of the election would have been doubtful if it had been held as pro- posed. The friends of the movement will not cease their campaign, how ever, but will continue to do all in their power to build up sentiment so as to assure the issuance of the bonds.

CALENDAR OF EVENTS
By MYRTLE MILES

Several days of autumn weather made Birmingham far more attractive than the country or mountain resorts and there has been a remarkable increase in the travel toward home, many well known families number to the State Fair guests. Most of the houses in fashionable sections of the city are now in md-season trim, with white curtain and green shades up. In the meantime the environs in every drec- ton are at their best and there has been no end of amusement this week for those who have returned home or stayed throughout the season. For the State Fair has offered attractions to everyone. dreds of fashionables to the fair grounds every day in the week and today will be the climax of gayety, for the football game between two popular teams holds the interest of the world social, The sponsors and their maids include a bevy of Birmingham's prettiest girls, and with their escorts they will go out in mo- tors and tallyhos with colors flying and in festive attire, giving a picturesqueness | the DdchBIOullu dllu u iiOle Ol tlllu- siasm which cannot be without effect upon the players.
 It was not expected that there would be much gayety this week of the purely social sort, for it is not the time of the year when entertaining is fashionable, but there have been many luncheons and dinners at restaurants and clubs and the loyal card player found many opportun- ites for bridge and auction. After next week, If the weather continues good, the chances are in favor of a decided fn- crease in interest socially, for there are a number of conservatively minded per- sons who cherish the notion that there is a great deal of amusement to be had in the Magic City at any time, provided the thermometer remains at reasonable height.
