Civic leagues that have been formed in many parts of Greater Birmingham are of great influence when it comes to a question of upbuilding. This fact is made exceedingly apparent by developments during the past week. For it is an- nounced that the Central Park Civic league has at last succeeded in getting the authorization for the construction of school house in that suburb.
 The school house, bids for which will be requested during the next 10 days or two weeks, will cost $l5.000. It will be con structed by the city of Birmingham and the bids, it is believed, will be requested through the city commission. The citi- zens of that section have given the city plot of ground of unusual attractive ness for the school grounds and the city has floated a sufficient, amount of Ave- year notes to pay for the building. The building. picture of which is shown from the front elevation. In this morning Age Herald, will be modern In every detail. It will be three stories high.

air intakes and ventilation schemes. This building will be carefully protected so far as fire escapes and fire protection goes
 Tarrant City School
 In addition to this Accomplishment of a civic league it was assured yesterday that the state high school commission would locate a high scchool at Tarrant City. The board met yesterday afternoon and listened to plans. The citizens of the community offered in effect 10 acres of ground and building to cost s50,00O aside from equipment. This building will be among the most elegant and modern school buildings in the state. The com mission, hearing the plans offered, ae- cepted tentatively the offer. The details include formal written offer from the citizens of Tarrant City, which will be made during the next day or two. Then the architect must be nominated to the state commission and his selection ap- proved or disapproved by the state board. Then the work will begin. It is believed that these few details will be handled during the next week or ten days. The state commission is very much delighted with the outlook as to that building.
 These two buildings are practically all the new developments in the building line

locally during the past seven days. HOW ever, there has been more or less con- struction rumored and some of this Is expected to develop. In this connection 1t iJ stated that William c. Weston, the architect for the new Birmingham Rail- way, Light and Power company building, will be ready to receive bids during the next few days on that structure. The contract has not been let, but 1t Is gem orally believed that the Realty Construc- tion company, of which Fritz Larkin Is general manager will get the contract for the building. However no announce ment was obtainable yesterday in con nection with the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company construction.
 Earle Building
 The construction on the Earle building on First avenue, which is exciting consid- erable interest is fairly underway under the direction of Evans Bros, the well known contractors. The foundations are almost completed and the construction will be rushed during the summer.

June IA. 1914.-(Special. .)-This photographic reproduction shows four fireproofed exterior openings in the wall of the building occupied by the Doster-Northington Drug Co. These windows were directly ex- posed to the fire that destroyed tho B. R., L. & P. Co., building. The frames and sash in these openings are made of 24-guaGe galvanized iron; the glass is one-fourth-inch thick, with Ms-inch wire laid in while the glass is in fnoulton con. dition. The glass is, held in the frame by 3-4 inches of metal on all sides.
 When subjected to intense heat. as in case of fire. the glass will crack but cannot fall out on account of the wire in the elass and the method by which the glass is held into the frame.

See These Windows?

When fire broke out in the ad, joining building these windows were closed immediately-there was no argument. LOOK at those , windows on the top floor. There were many barrels of alcohol and other combustibles on this floor. Can you imagine what would have happened had these windows been made of wood and had fire reached the combustibles?
 There are many buildings in Dir. mingham's business section in which hundreds of men, women and children work from early dawn until night, with practically no fire re- tarding protection.

During this entire controversy Lead
ing up to this suit, was in Washing
ton city, and had no knowledge of the
controversy, or the employment of the
lawyers.
On my return to the district the lat
ter part, of June heard for the first
time of this controversy and the furth.
! er fact that Mr.. Reynolds had paid the
Gordon hotel $4,000, the WaynesvilIe
Inn and the Swannanoa hotel in Ashe-
! vile about $780, Altogether with cash
raid the Suyeta Park $4,000 and the
balance admitted by him TO be due
them of $4,000, making total Of
sz250OO paid and due for board bills
for his delegates.
This statement came as a great
surprise to me, as under the United.
! States Statute, all candidates for Con-
gress are required by law to file with
the clerk of the House of Representa-
tives within fifteen days after the con-
vention an itemized statement under
oath of all Expenditures and promises
to pay money connected with his cam
paign.
Mr.. Reynolds filed with the clerk of
the House of Representatives his
statement under oath within fifteen
days after the adjournment of the
Waynesville convention but in doing
sc failed to mention these board bills
aggregating $255O.O0.
The circumstances and statements
from five reputable persons, prove
conclusiyely that had nothing to do
with this case, either directly, or in-1
directly, and challenge Mr.. Reynolds
to produce any proof to sustain his
charge that I was responsible for the.
institution of this suit.

ment about Suit
Against Mr.. Rey-

Following the publication of a news
item which appeared in the Charlotte
Observer, and the Asheville Citizen
and Gazette-News to the effect tnat
Miss Cameron the proprietress of the
suyeta Park hotel in WaynesviIle had
brought suit against Robert r. Rey-
holds for board bill for the enter
tainment OF MS delegates at he Con-
gressional convention which met In
Waynesville on May, the 18th, Mr.. Rey-
holds has made a statement In your
PAPER TO the effect "'That this whole
thing is political frame up and Con-
gresham Gudger is behind it.
In order that the people of the dis
trict may have a clear understanding
of the facts in this case. and to prove
beyond a shadow of doubt that the
charges made against me by Mr.. Rey-
holds are untrue. unfair. and unjust

ton. he claiming that he had paid her
cash $4,000 and that he owed her .
balance of $4,000 while Miss Cameron
claimed he was due her balance OF

Miss Cameron gave statement IL

Citizen from which / quote. II am a

Manifestly the facts do not justify
Mr.. Reynolds in charging the law
firm of Hannah. Leatherwood and
Davis with dis-reputable conduct in

alleging that it is "a frame up. dirty
politics. and a political intrigue
! This charge is more surprising IN
view of the fact that Leatherwood and
Davis supported Mr. Reynolds at the
last primary.
While it may be unfortunate that
Mr. Reynolds should become involves
in law suit over board bill. it IS
iDexcusab1e for him to attempt to di-
vert the public mind from the real
issue. by charging that his opponent
was behind the litigation. and impug-
ming the motives of a reputable law
firm who accepted this claim for col
lection, just as he Reynolds1 and
others in the practice of law do from
time to time.

any of his friends are back of this suit
il false. for I had the suit brought
for the purpose of enforcing by law
the collection of a just debt
The law firm of Hannah, Leatherd-
wood and Davis. who has been en-
ployed by Miss Cameron, made the fol-
lowing statement in the Gazette-News
of July the 18th: I'VE wish to state
here, that Mr.. Gudger, nor any
of his friends as far as we know, have
had any thing whatever to do vita
this suits and further states, sYou,
article (referring to Mr.. Reynolds
statement) that Mr.. Gudger was in
Waynesville the day the complaint was
drawn, and that it is rumored that he
was in our Office, and dictated the
complaint, we wish to state here that
that is an absolute falsehood;; that
the complaint was drawn every WORT
Of it by US as attorneys two days be-
fore Mr.. Gudger came to Waynesyiile'
We did not know that he was coming
here, and Mr. Gudger had nothing
whatever to do with the complaint or
the suit, and is not encouraging the
suit-but we took the case in good
faith that he defendant owed this
debt. and we believe from the evi-
dence that is brought before US. that
he still owes it, and that there was no
Interior motive on our part in bring
ing this suit, other than the collection
of a debt in the due course of our
business as lawyers. 1t is unjust to
accuse our law firm of bringing this
suit to injure Mr.. Reynolds, because
our Mr.. Hannah voted for Mr.. Gudger
and our Mr.. Leatherwood and Mr..
Davis voted for Mr.. REYNOLDS in the
primary"
In the same paper Mr.. Schaefer,
clerk of the hotel makes the follow
ing statement: "The article referred
to in your paper states that he suit
that Miss Cameron brought against
Robert R. Reynolds for this board
bill was prompted by Mr. Gudger and
his friends for the purpose of injurin1g
