SOUTHERN MATRON ENTER
 TANNED IN WASHINGTON

Mrs. Albert G. Weems, who has just returned from Washington, was the reel pient of many charming courtesies while there" says a Meridian exchange. While not a member of the D. A. R., she was identified with the lovely coterie of dele gates to that convention, stopping at the Raleigh, and enjoying many pleasures in common with them, among which were Mrs. Scott's reception at Centennial hall and the minuet by the children of the revolution at the Arlington.
 Mrs. Weems was the guest of honor at two teas at the New Willard, given by Mrs. Leroy Percy, also at The Lily at the Columbia theatre, and enjoyed the privilege granted but few of attending the examination of the supivors of the ill., fated Titanic. the guest of Senator Eos ter of Louisiana, and Senator and Mrs. Percy and Mrs. Howsy. Mrs. Weems was also entertained at the Arlington by Senator and Mrs. Bankhead Mir. Thomas NJ. owen, l.. l.. D.. and wife, the latter being sohoolmate of Mrs. Weems at Ward $ seminary.

2 County Paint Contract

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 Jefferson county seems financially well off to spend s320 more for paint than they could have bought it for. The following bids were opened on yes terday for painting the county bridges:
 Detroit Graphite company, best grade $1.30 per gallon; second grade. so cents per gallon. Birmingham Paint and Glass company, s1.25 per gallon. Acme White Lead and Color Works, $1 DO per gallon. Forest City Paint and Narnish company. s1.00 per gallon. Pittsburg Plate Glass company, 95 cents per gal lon; second grade, 75 cents per gallon
 The contract was divided as follows: Detroit Graphite company, 10 barrels at $130 per gallon, 500 gallons equals s65O; Birmingham Paint and Glass com pany, 500 gallons at s1,25 per gallon s615; Acme White Lead and Color Works, 500 gallons al st00 per gallon equals $500. Total s1765.
 If the total of 30 barrels, approxi- mately 1900 gallons, been given to the lowest bidder, which was 95 cents per gallon, would make total of $1445, or a saving of s320. The lowest bidders, the Pittsburg Plate Glass company, rated In the commercial agencies at over $20,000,000, are owners of the Pat ton Paint company, one of the best rated paints for quality in the United States. The Pittsburg Plate Glass com pany also operates a warehouse in Bir- mingham and is really home indus try, and I would like the Board of Rev enue to explain why it prefers to spend $32O more of the county's money than was necessary.

Learning in the Mediaval Age

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 In your Monday number I read letter from the eminent scholar, James E. Coyle, in which he proves that the dark mediae- val age was really an age of light and learning It may be admitted that the lamp of learning was kept burning and that art and sciences were fostered in some great monasteries and in schools. taught by clericals, but it must also be admitted, that there was very little diff fusion of this light among the masses of the people so that the middle ages may well be called dark. Real progress was made impossible, because there was no free thought or rather the expression of such thought was fraught with great danger. Calico, for instance, himself a professor at Pisa, had to suffer much from the inquisition because he said the world was moving. Poor Calico, the world is moving yet, though he was made to re- cant, and Mr. Coyle may admit that it Is no conspiracy against truth to say that even in the Catholic church there has been some motion toward the light.
 Mr. Coyle begins his argument with the sixteenth century, before. that is, by the name of reformation and 1t is in regard to these words, MT. Editor. that I wish to make some comments, the truth of which our learned Mr. Coyle, knowing church history, will concede.
 The reformation, this religious revolt, was born of religion. It was the revolt of religion against the abuses which were practiced by the church 6he Catholic
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-05-16

ehurch) in the name of religion. It was not against religion, but rather for restor- ing religion and the church of the apos- ties. The particular abuse which brought on this revusion or revolt in Germany was the selling for cash of indulgences, Remission and forgiveness of sins, commit ted. The privilege, granted by the pope, to sell these indulgenees in Germany, was farmed out to the notorious Tetzel in or der to swell the Peters pence fund, which fell short of the requirements of the splendor loving pope The revolt was not confined to Germany alone, but spread throughout all Christendom. It was strong in Spain, but there, as in other Latin countries, it was crushed by fire and the sword. Now, I have read lately that the Catholic church claims that 1t never sane tioned such oppression and persecution, but 1t is regarded as a fact that the in- quisition of infamous note was an institu- ton of the Catholic church. Was it not? After the news of the horrible midnight murder in Paris, known to history as Bartholomew's night reached Rome, the pope had "Te Deum' sung to celebrate the assassination of so many prominent Hugenots. When the peace of Westphalia was concluded after a 30 years war that laid Germany waste, and when thereby religious toleration was granted, the pope protested violently In my home town in Germany a teacher at nelghboring cloiS- ter school was burned at the stake hav- ing been dragged out of bed at night by a mob led by monks, because he had taught the truth as he found it in Gods revealed word. And this was done with out trial of any sort. Yes, my brethren, the world moves, and this religious re- volt properly bears the name of reforma- ton, since the burning of heretics at the stake is no longer practiced in the Cath ollie church; the "auto-da- fe'' is no longer regarded as an act of faith" forsooth, and the inquisition is no longer an institu- tion of this church, so that it seems to have been. reformed to this extent.
 And the selling of sablass," remission of sins for money. which brought on the reformation, is, hope, no longer prac- ticed. Whether the invocation of saints the creature instead of the creator) is still in vogue, and whether the wonder working virtues of some relic, the tibia or clavicle only part of the vestment of some saint, are still believed in, alas I know not, but this I know-that in these things also a reformation will for Calico was right The world does movel Yes, 1t moves, because with the reformation a newer, more enlightened age was ushered in. The masses, at least in Germany, became eager for education, because pri- marily they wished to be able to obey the commandment of Christ and His apos- tie to search the scriptures, the only in- fallible guide of faith and conduct, to find in 1t life everlasting, and to see to. it that they were taught alright concerning the way of salvation.

THE SOCIAL CALENDAR
By MYRTLE MILES

The conclusion of the Highland Books splendid season occurred yester- day morning in a meeting at the home of Mrs T. o. Smith, at Graymont The surroundings in the Smith residence are perfect for an incident so artistic, and in addition to the members of the Book club several interesting visitors enjoyed the programme. They were Mrs. Mare Hubbert and Miss Frances Hubbert of Tacoma, Wash, the guests of Mrs. Smith; Miss Stephanie Levert of New Orleans, Miss Anna Coates Bene- dict of Athens, Ga, Miss Noble of An niston, Miss Elinor Stafford Miller of Australia, Mrs. Willard Parker Sulli- van of Richmond, Va
 The flowers from the gardens adorned the rooms in which the guests were seated Roses beautifed and perfumed the living room, and in the hall were clusters of corlopsis. A French bou- quet was the decoration chosen for the tea table. From the dining room, where 1t was stationed, dainty refreshments were passed among the guests.
 The drama, which has been the line of work pursued by the club this sea- son, was the inspiration for the pro- gramme. Mrs. Leonard Thurlow Beech er whose literary interpretations are always received with favor by Birming- ham audiences as they are in the east, gave a reading of the dramatization of "The Piper" a lovely thing always and certainly charming in her rendition.

Wee Lobsters Balk Ship

From the New York Times.
 When the New York and the South American Steamship company's steam ship Charcas arrived at Tompkinsville Wednesday from Coronal with a cargo of iron ore and nitrate Of silver. Chief Of ficer Wilson had a wonderful yarn to spin of how the ship was held up at in- tervals for three days by myriads of tiny Holsters off the west coast of Patagonia
 According to the chief officer the Char cas- left colonal on December 13 and on the 23d, nearing the Straits of Magellan, she ran into what appeared to be a float ing island of tiny Holsters. They were so thick that the Charcas had to force her way through the crustaceous mass for three days and nights, making a peculiar grinding noise which disturbed the engin- cers in their slumber.
 Four hours after the steamship struck the lobster shoal the chief engineer dis covered that the condenser pump would not work, so he had the pipe unshipped to see what the trouble was. The pipe was clogged up with the small Holsters He cleared it, and then the pump worked for another five hours, and had to be cleaned out again. This continued at in- tervals for the entire time the Charcus was among the shoal.
 Chief Officer Wilson said he did not lave any specimens of the small Holsters tc show, but he pointed out places along the side of the steamship where the lili- pufian crustaceans had eaten off the paint in their anger at being pushed out of the way. Thomas Grossly, the cap tain, went to the office of William R. Grace Sons, the agents, and related the marvellous story.
