The Thanksgiving Bird

Il don't see SO many turkeys on
Norris avenue this season as was in
evidence last year" said Y V. Will
liams, state agent of the V. II. Jackson
Cigar company of Cincinnati. From all
the reports 1 have seen the supply os
turkeys this year is going to be above
normal and consequently the price will
be slightly lower than usual.
II have many friends among the
poultry dealers and they say that the
demand is far from normal. AT this
time of the year the thrifty housewife
usually buys Turkey for Thank sg;v-
ing in order to rut 1t through a fat
tening process before it is time to be
killed and served. The dealers say,
however, that there has been but n
small demand and some of them are
placing the birds in cold storage for
the Christmas trade. The price is now
lowering about 20 and 20 cents but
the indications point to a weak ening
market in the near future"

MOVING PICTURES WILL HELP

In the November Woman's Home Com
panion, Daniel F'rohman, one of the fam
GUS theatrical managers in America.
writes an interesting article entitled, THE
Movies and the Theatre in which he dis
cusses the question: Will moving pictures
hurt the drama? In the course of his
article Mr.. Frohman makes clear his opin-
ion that moving pictures are not going to
hurt the theatre, but help it. He says
in part:
II believe the moving picture will be
one of the agents by which people viii
be brought back to the theatre. For a
time, perhaps. the galleries are being
emptied, and most assuredly for a time
such a condition is going to hurt the
theatres, for a large part of the thea
tres profit is in the gallery. But 1t Is
only a passing phase.
"The theatre is always going to stand
as firm as a rock. Madame Sarah Bern-
hardt, who is an enthusiast about the
moving picture, said to me not long ago
that the supreme human value of the
stage, the very question of warm person.
ality, with which the mechanical can
never compete. will always bring the PEN
dulum. swinging back in favor of the
theatre.
"There is much to be said for an amuse-
ment which a poor man can have for 10
cents But that is no reason why the
galleries of our theatres at the present
time are empty. AS theatre manager
of some experience have never yet found
the question of price debated as a reason
for empty seats when the play was really
wanted Our galleries are largely empty
because the people are not getting the
plays they want. What the average the
atregoer has always objected to was
paying disproportionate price for poor
seat and a poor play together, when for
10 cents or 25 cents he could sit down.

Bringing Settlers to Alabama

I'VE have succeeded in bringing many
settlers to Alabama and establishing them
on small farms In Cullman county" said
Leo *. Steiner, who is the principal owner
of nearly 100000 acres of good Cullman
land acquired few years ago.
1--WE have been on the lookout for home
seekers In the north, and last year and
the year before we sold farms to pros
pective settlers, but we have done better
this year than heretofore. l attribute
the present active inquiry for farms in
Cullman county to the high price of cot
ton. Cullman county. as everyone knows,
is fine trucking county. and it is also
a good cotton county. 1t will not be
many years before Cullmans population
is largely increased by settlers from other
states.
Il believe that our company is about
the only one that is doing much in the
way of bringing settlers here

Postmaster General Burleson receives
many complaints against the slot ma
chimes in which postage stamps are sold
in drug stores, hotel Hobbies, news stands,
clubs and other places. The machines
sell four 1-cent stamps or two 2-cent
stamps for a nickel, making a profit of
l cent on each transaction. Some people
who have written to the postoffice depart
ment call this as an extortion, but Third
Assistant Postmaster General A. NJ. Dock
cry made a statement a few days ago to
the effect that while there is a law pro-
htbiting the sale of postage stamps at
more than face value, it applies only to
postmasters and their employees, not to
persons unconnected with the postofffce
service. The fact is that the slot machine
Is an accommodation to the public, and it
Is safe to assume that most people who
want stamps late at night when the post
office is closed are glad enough to get
cents worth of postage for cents.

PETERS DRIVES
HOME FACTS IN
HIS TALK

David carey Peters, pastor of the
Christian Church, called spade
a spade during his address 10 the
audience of men gathered in the EN-
pire theatre last evening to hear what
ne had to say on the subject a Con
yersation on Housetop, the occas-
ION being the seventh of the series
OF mass meetings for men now being
conducted under the auspices of the
Young Mems Christian Association.
The conversation refers to the one
which Jesus had at night with Nico-
demus, head of the educational sys-
tenn Of the Jews, and one of the ia
nous committee of 20 which manag-
ed all strictly Jewish affairs.
The speaker gave the historic set
ting of the interview, and thus show
ed what Jesus meant when he told
this man that he must be born
again. Life consists Of habits, ways
OF thinking, likes and dislikes, he
said, and being born again is simply
getting new set of habits, hating
some things formerly liked, and lik-
ing some things not formerly cared
for. Mr.. Peters is a preacher who
calls sin by it's right name, and does
not try to give his audience the Inn
preston that he thinks only saints
are within sound of his voice. The
result is that he hits where he shoots,
and the man that needs to be hit
knows it.

up the talk, ana the music was up to
its usual high standard, especially the
last song by the quartet, aStill, Still
With Thee. The meeting in the EN-
pire theatre next Sunday evening will
be the last of the series.

market was extremely light, buyers
being closely confined to small lots
