movement to change the constitution so
that the legislature could make an appro-
priation for building of roads. We called
the hand of the members of the Ala
bama legislature and asked them to pass
a bill enabling the people of Alabama to
change the constitution so as to make an
appropriation for building roads out of
the net proceeds of the convict fund.
After a long struggle with the legisla-
ture, victory crowned our efforts under
the splendid leadership of John w. Over
ton, who secured the passage of the good
| roads amendment, which was submitted
to the people and known as the Overton
good roads amendment. We went before
the people and advocated this measure
actively and persistently. Splendid work
in advocating this amendment was done
by Bankhead, Craft, Underwood, Over
ton. Seed and many others.
The amendment tri1mphed at the polls.
The people by a vote of armost 10 to l in
dorsed this amendment, and by the way
it is the only amendment changing the
constitution of Alabama that has tri-
umphed in the last 10 years. This is an
argument that the people of Alabama
are progressive on the subject of good
roads and are willing to change the con-
stitution to secure good roads in this
state. They recognize the fact that good
roads, like good streets, make habitation
along them most desirable; they enhance
the value of the farm land; facilitate
transportation and add untold wealth to

BOILER ROOM REQUIRES
ATTENTION OF EXPERT

One of the most interesting develop
ments of modern electric generation has
followed the discovery that the key to
economy in the whole plant lies not In the
delicate generators and engines them
selves but in the boiler room. Wherefore
Birminghams electric light and power
company has installed one of its highest
paid experts in it's boiler room to keep
an eye out for every opportunity at
economy. He follows up all possible
chances of leaks or waste; has personal
charge of the sitting of the coal into the
ash pits, corrects in person every slight
est error in the firing of the engine and
superintends the feeding of the boilers
with the enormous quantities of water re-
quired to keep them going at maximum
speed day and night.
IS a result of this economy in the
boiler room it is said that thousands of
dollars saved in the generation of
electricity each month.
In the modern central station of the
electrical company are provided a suffi-
cient number Of boilers to generate steam
and allow for reserve capacity required
