States, for the dream is to do the thing on gigantic scale-as Birmingham should do everything The crowd will be
 in the city for an indefinite period as
 long. as a matter of fact, as the centen- rial continues. It will be a boon season for the merchants, and for everyone else who has things for sale, or for advertise ment It will be banner season for Bir- mingham entire
 But the real good will not necessarily accrue in its entirety during the exposi- tion. When the final day has come, Br- mingham will walk into possession of all that remains. And there is the oppor- tunity. the real opportunity which will endure for all the years to come.
 The buildings will stand, and there will be several large and handsome ones State building, an exposition building and building representing the city of Birmingham. There will be tracks and driveways and an auditorium.
 Ali of these things Birmingham for all these years has needed. The problem of an auditorium will be solved, and Bir- mingham has needed and snasmodically worked for an auditorium for a long period. And the problem of city park a beautiful park to see which the citizens will take just pride in inviting all guests who may come. will be solved. And there will remain the foundation for zoo-and Birmingham has wanted 2 zoo for many years. 4 roc VIII

 The exposition buildings will still stand. The stadium, with seating capacity of so,0oo, cannot be moved away. The open air theatre in which 5000 may be seated position will have lost its power to. estound. The track will be there. The driveways, the arches, the canyons will be preserved.
 Birmingham has the opportunity. The scheme is not merely theoretical. for it is capable of being put into actual practice. It is dream, but one differing from the ordinary variety in that 1t will not of necessity evaporate at the breakfast table. Indeed, it is one which might be realized. It is big worthy of Birminghams bigness. but not too big for Birmingham's imagi- nation to grasp.
 The citizens of this city have all ready laid their plans for acquiring the exposition. With the trophy acquired, the second step will be easily accomplished. For there can hardly be doubt that large sum of money will be appropriated for the celebration through period of at least six months of Alabama's 10otn anniversary as member of the union of States
 To prepare for the exposition work will he started it is probably as early as 1917. For all buildings must be completed one year before the opening of the centennial. The cite will be as near as possible to

 securing a magnificent park, spa cious auditorium, and providing location for zoo will be permanently solved.
 The step which first must be taken Is 10 secure the centennial exposition which in celebration of the Tooth anniversary of Alabamas entrance into union will occur in one of three cities of this State in 19l9 While Mobile and Montgomery are anx- ious to acquire the honor of being the scene of the celebration. Birminghams ardour and Birmingham's bigness will probably result in victory for the Magic City.

Colonel Not Scared BY Previous
Brushes With Fate.

Washington, D. C.-Probably the
most serious accident in which Colonel
Roosevelt figured was in 1902, when his
carriage was struck by trolley car
near Pittsfield, Mass, and secret
service man was killed. Colonel
Roosevelt was thrown heavily to the
ground.
In October, 1905, the colonel was
journeying down the Mississippi river
on the lighthouse tender Magnolia
when the vessel was run down by the
steamer Esporta near New Orleans
and several great holes cut in her hull.
Only last summer the train on
which Mr.. Roosevelt was going to
Chicago ran into boulder that had
