WINDOW ENVELOPES
Milan Addresses Postmaster Aldrich
 About His Recent Letter

C. S. Milan, district sales agent of the Transo Paper company with head quarters in the Chamber of Commerce building of this city has addressed a communication to Postmaster Aldrioh relative to the recently published pro test against the window envelope as follows:
 Hon. Truman II. Aldrich, Postmaster.
 Birmingham, Ala.
 Dear Sir-I notice your statement in this mornings AgeH Herald which I be- lieve Is inclined to mislead the public. However, I know that 1t was not your intention.
 "The matter of window envelopes was thrashed out for the United States government by The Presidents com mission on Economy and Efficiency and they adopted the Transo Window envelope, as per sample herewith en- closed.
 Tt may possibly be a fact that let ters addressed in pencil are hard to read through tho window in the en- velope, but 1t Is also fact that if these same letters were enclosed in an ordinary enevelope and addressed in pencil that constant handling would also erase the address, and make 1t even more difficult to read, and in some cases only reach it's destination through the dead letter office.
 Our instructions to customers are not to use pencil for address. Yours very truly, C. s. MILAM."

INSTITUTE AT FIRST
 METHODIST CHURCH

The first institutes of the one week Men and Religion campaign were held last night at the First Methodist and First Presbyterian church. Although the at tendance was not quite up to the stan dard set by the local leaders, there was an appreciable crowd of men present in each department. Each one of the seven visiting experts has charge of an institute on his own particular line of work. It IS urged by each leader that when person enters one class they attend that one during the entire week as the work will be rather continuous and more good will be received by getting a good knowledge of the one line than mere smattering of all of them.
 At the First Methodist church last night the Rev. w. E. Biederwolf conducted a class on Evangelism in the auditorium of the church. In the basement F. $. Goodman had quite a large crowd pres ent when he lectured on Bible Study In the Sunday school room R. A. Waite talked to a large crowd on Boy Work. These classes will be held in the same rooms the entire week, the same speakers having charge. The leaders are making every endeavor to plant the seeds of their work in these classes and leave behind them the thought that will help the men to understand and carry out the different lines of work

PLAN MONUMENT ID
 REVOLUTION HEROES
Many Soldiers of That Great Conflict Are Buried in
 Jefferson County

The county board of education of Jef- ferson county has ruled that Daughters of the American Revolution of this district may collect donations on Washinston's birthday, February 22. in the country rural schools. for the erection of mon ument to the memory of the revolutionary soldiers buried in Jefferson county. This was done by a formal resolution passed by the educational board in compliance with a request from the monument committee of the General Sumter chapter of the D. A. R. that the funds for such mon ument might be increased by contributions from tho school children in the country districts.
 The county educational executives have also set aside February 16 to be ob- served as Temperance Day, in accordance with the state law governing this annual event All schools will be asked to ob- serve Temperance Day with appropriate exercises and programme.
 The following is the call issued to tho children of Jefferson county by the mon ument committee of the General Sumter chapter of the D. A. R. regarding the of fering to be made on Washington's anni-
 -
 versary:
 ITO the Children of the Jefferson County Schools:
 George Washington. whose birthday we celebrate on the 22d of this month, who more than 100 years ago, with many other brave men, fought to free their beloved country from the English yoke. After seven years of hardship and suffering they were victorious, and established the inde- y7. 4t.,& fA nId aFC were ever braver or suffered more than did the soldiers of the American rev olution. Histories of our country tell of the bravery, unselfishness and great sac rifce of these heroic men. To them we are indebted for all the blessings which as citizens of the United States we en- joy. Many people from other lands have come to these shores and made their homes here where they enjoy the blessings and privileges of a free and happy land Should we not love ana reverence the memory of our heroic dead? There lie buried in Jefferson county many soldiers of the revolution whose graves are un- marked and that their names may not be lost to history we will erect a monument to their memory. and ask that on our beloved Washingtons birthday each child in the schools of Jefferson county make voluntary donation to the monu- ment to be built in memory of the revo- lutionary soldiers buried in Jefferson county.

HIGH SCHOOL TEAM
 TAXES TRIP FRIDAY

The Birmingham High school quintette will take it's first road trip of the sea- son on Friday. when the team will play the Southern University five, which went down fin defeat at their hands here last week. On Saturday they will play the basketball five of the Marion Military institute at Marion, Ala.
 Coach Courleux has been working the boys hard for he expects a very hard fight in both places on the road trip. The courts will be new to the boys, and 1t will be hard for them 10 become ac- customed to 1t. All tho members of tn 3 squad are in good shape and will accom- pany the team on the trip.
 Hood, who has been out of the game for the past few weeks on account of a bad knee, will be in good shape and will probably be one of the strongest players. Tribble is in good shape and Is fast ac- uuiring the ability that he showed last year, Gillem, the newcomer, who has shown up well in the last few games, will probably accompany the team as sub stitute forward, while Strange, at center, and the star guards-Barker and Jones' will also go along.
 Coach Courleux expects to have hard battle at Greensboro, and he Is some what doubtful as to whether the 1ocat5 will be able to turn the trick this time. At Marion, he states that he does not know what will happen for the strength of the M. M. l. is very doubtful, as 1t has played very little. The team will leave Friday for Greensboro.

IMPORTANT MEASURES FAIL
 TO PASS MISSISSIPPI SENATE

cussed the proposition to reduce the az, of consent now ridlculousy low, from |; to 16 years. The chamber was cleared of all ladies and children and the dis. cussion took the widest range possible The chief opposition to the measure was the provision that the death penalty shall be inflicted on the guilty man, and ovei that there was lively discussion. It Is generally conceded that the age of con. sent should be materially increased, but the bill as drawn is considered entirely too drastic, and the impression is that il will never pass After a long discussion the measure was recommitted to the ju. dietary committee for perfection, and t is believed that something of the kind will be adopted, the death penalty being eliminated 8#-
 The House spent considerable DOT. ton of the morning session on the report df the penitentiary committee. which called for law fixing the female com victs on the Oakley farm and the white convicts on the Rankin farm-just as they have been untii the past few months, when the white convicts were re- moved to the Parchman farm. Sentiment had great deal to do with the adoption of the committee report--the idea being that the white convicts are entitled to better treatment than are the negroes.
