Will Require Much Money

If the state centennial committee charged with the matter of naming the exposition city decides in favor of Birmingham, which is likely, the great bulk of the money needed to carry into effect the projected enterprise will have to be raised here. One of the great features of centennial ex- position would be an Alabama arch ives and industrial building. And the federal government could be counted on to have building, for an exposition of national importance must have gov ernment recognition, of course; bat we need not expect any financial aid from Congress.
 Twenty-Five or thirty years ago large and attractive expositions were held in the south at comparatively small cost. But the country has progressed and standards in every direction have been raised. The county fair of the present time must be better than the old time county fair. The state fairs of today are equal to some of the most creditable expositions of 30 years age and an exposition held in Birmingham in 1919 must be as far ahead of the creditable exposition held in Nashville in 1897 as that exposition was ahead of the Richmond industrial show ot 1888 or the earlier Atlanta fairs. If the Nashville exposition cost, in round numbers, $1,000,00O an exposition held in Birmingham would cost, if it is to be worthy of the occasion, between $1 100000 and S2,OO0,OO The money can be raised in Birmingham; the question is are the people of Bir mingham eager enough for the expo. sition to get together and subscribe $1 ,5O0,O or more.

Communicable Diseases

This county has a roughly con- structed camp for smallpox cases, but aside from that rude rendezvous for one disease only neither the city nor the county has hospital to which patients suffering with communicable diseases can be taken and cared for.
 This is the city's great and prime deficiency. More than a zoo, more than large public library, more than anything else that can be named, this city needs hospital for those strick- en down by communicable diseases.
 The people of this city did not falter when the Y. NJ. c. A. and the Y. w. C.. A. appealed for funds with which to erect ample buildings, and now when it is seen how pressing is the need for a hospital devoted to the treatment of communicable diseases, The Age-Herald feels sure that the answer of the people will be prompt and satisfactory.
 A call for public meeting on this subject should be issued without de- lay. A plan and an estimate should be prepared by commission of phys icians. Organized action should in other words be rapidly forthcoming. If number of separate and widely detached buildings be necessary, let the spot where they can be built be made known. In other words, let us get down to brass tacks in this mat ter, for the need of such a hospital may come to any family-to any per- son-any day in the town that has risen to the second place in the list of southern cities.

man in public life has ever had fuller equipment. MT. Wilson would be more than glad, no doubt, to have MT. Under wood for his secretary of the treas ury, but the great Alabaman is needed as majority leader in the house. as the man, above all others. to write the tariff bill.
 "Mr Bryan would, in some respects, make a first class secretary of state, but I am certain he cannot be prevailed upon to go into the cabinet. Hannis Taylor, formerly of Alabama, but now of Washington, D. C., has had the sort of training that would fit him especial iy for the office of secretary of state, but it Is not unlikely that United States senator or a member of the house Of representatives will be se- lected. Usually the senate foreign re- 1ations committee and the house for- eign affairs committee present hlgh class material, but today, with one or two exceptions, the material on the democratic side of the senate committee ia not of state department timber. And the same may be said of the foreign effairs committee of the house. ohaif- man William Sulzer of the house com mittee has had large experience Ill considering diplomatic questions put nc will be elected governor of New forh and would. therefore, not be available.

On the Verge of a Great Battle

The Servians and the Greeks and the Montenegrins are advancing and waging war in an aggressive manner, but it is plain that a great and per haps decisive battle is to be fought at Adrianople only.
 Those who desire to understand this war should consider Adrianople as it's focal point. It is located in Turkey in Europe in the foothills of the Plevna mountains, just about 100 miles from Constantinople and the Bosphorus. It is about 75 miles from the Black sea, being strictly an ln- terior city, and is about 30 miles from the southern border of Bulgaria. Here are concentrated about 150,0OO Turks and about as many Bulgarians, and great battle is inevitable in or near it. The Turks are inside defensive works, for it is Turkish town on Turkish territory. The Bulgars must take it or flank it, and the latter task would be dangerous. To take 1t means assault after assault upon strong lines of defense. Should Ad- rianople fall Constantinople itself and Turkish power in Europe would be jeopardized beyond measure.
 The battle of Plevna in 1877 was preceded by seige lasting from July to November. The Turkish command CT, Osman Pacha, intercepted there q Russian force but instead of following up his victory he began the constfuc- ticn of field works on large scale. The Russians were repulsed several times in their attacks on these wocks but at last they were taken and in December, 1877, Osman and his army surrendered. The Turks fought des- perately both at Plevna and Shipka Pass, but their generals failed to take advantage of their victories.
 The impression prevails in Europe that the Turks will this year await the attacks of the Bulgars at Adrian pple very much as they did at plevna ;s 1Q77 and in Austria and 1T Ger

Remember the Civic Rally

The Chamber of Commerce will hold h "get acquainted" meeting at the Jefferson theatre tonight. It will be one of the most important rallies of the year. President Sibley urged all the old members and all the new members of the chamber to be pres ent. Harry Jones is chairman of the rget acquainted' committee and that Tact means that the rally will be full of snap and enthusiasm.
 The Chamber of Commerce, with its more than 2000 members, will be able to do all the more effective work in civic matters if the organization keeps to the front the get together idea; and in order to have thorough get together body the members should be acquainted with each other. The theatre should be crowded tonight.

Carroll l.. Riller, in Harper's Weekly
 If tde gulf stream could flow unbrokeAA .,ast the Grand Banks of Newrounulaiu, where 1t NOW is broken and dlssipated oy the icy Labrador Current, climatic changes would be effected that would double the land value of the northern henisphere Arctic winters would then be unknown. All the land in the north- ern hemisphere north of New York would have A better climate than is possessed by New York today.
 let us now consider the effects or building the jetty or sea wall which shah separate the two mighty currents anu keen them from thwarting each other. The channel over the Grand Bank thus vacated by the Labracor Current-more than 25O miles wide-would be occupied it's entire depth by the Gulf stream whose position would a:ways be fully 400 ,riles farther north than it now is at times.
 It seems probable that the melting or tho heavy ice cap covering Greenland and other lands bordering on the polar sea. with or without such withdrawal of polar waters, would influence the inch- nation of the northern hemisphere more directly to the sun by reason of the ereater weight of the Anthracite Ice cap at the south pole. and therefore greater centrifugal force or tendency Of the south pole to assume the periphery in our solar orbit and thus add materially to the neat of the northern hemisphere, producing an area of perpetual day as far south as Scotland, for a long season, with no cor resnondng long night.

Concerning Cabinet Positions.

since Wilson's election seems to be assured there will soon be much inter- est in cabinet probabilities said an active and we'll informed democrat "In years past it was easy to guess who would be secretary of state in the event of the election of this or that presi- aential candidate. But it would be hard row to pick the winner of the state portfolio.
 There are many democrats in public life who have some of the equipment for important diplomatic work; but the matter of tempcrament-must be con sdered as well as brains and education. While it is not necessary for the head of the state department to be lawyer by profession he should be well read :n interna tional law. Most of our sec retaries of state have been lawyers. but John Hay, one of the ablest of them. although he had been admitted to the bar, never practiced. Robert Bacon. N ho was secretary of state for few months under Roosevelt. and who had been in the diplomatic service for some time. is not lawyer. But it can be readily understood that the President usually turns to the bar in filling his iirst cabinet office.
 MT. Underwood would make sue cess of any cabinet position. He pos sesses a combination of talents and no

AN EGYPTIAN WEDDING

 However modernized Cairo is, or will become, rural Egypt remains the same today as it has been for countless gen erations. One of the quaintest sights out in the country is a native wedding. was fortunate in seeing two of them, ono from train and the other while walking near the village of Henopolls' which is the site of the ancient city or On. mentioned in the Bible. The priue and bridegroom were completely screened from the public gaze by a canopied ar ranrement on the back of camel. II looked like an immense ottoman, adorned with a cover illuminated by gorgeous pat terms. The cratic and alarming way i'm which it bobbed up and down, this way and that, must have greatly enhanced the pleasure of the happy couple inside This camel was followed by the bridal party-all women--seated on a long tram of camels, each camel supporting two women The great. clumsy creatures Uhe camels. not the womenD were almost en- yeloped in immense rugs, on the top oi which, apparently. feather bed had been deposited, and on this the ladies squat fed. giving vent every few moments tt a prolonged shrill trill, which gath cred was intended for festive song. Al together, the incongruity of the spectacle was exceedingly comicai.
