ID WRITE SERIES
 0F ARTICLES FROM
 NATIONS AT WAR
Oscar Underwood, Jr., of Paris and Edward Butt of Liverpool Write
 for Age-Herald

Oscar W. Underwood Jr., of Bir- mingham will write series of letters from Paris for The Age Herald sSnd Edward Butt of Liverpool will write similar series from England
 MT. Underwood is a son of Congress man Underwood and while he was reared in Alabama he now lives in Paris, where he is connected with the largest American law firm in the French capital He is in close touch with affairs in France and will be able Ito write with especial interest from the American viewpoint. He has been very active in assisting stranded Americans in Paris and the fact that he will be writing for his own home people should make his letters of particular interest to Alabama readers.
 MT. Butt. who now lives in Liver pool, and is engaged in the cotton busi- ness. is former Georgian and will also be able to write many things of in terest to American readers. He is in such intimate touch with the Liverpool cotton situation that what he says should be of interest all over the south just at this time
 The Age-Herald cabled MT. Under wood and MT Butt about writing the tarticles and cablegrams from both were received yesterday formally accepting commissions as Age Herald correspond ents in two of the great nations now engaged in the European war

GO ID WASHINGTON
 ID URGE ACTION IN IMPROVING RIVERS
Alabamians Will Point Out Importance of Not Stop ping Work Especially
 On the Warrior

Without giving publicity to their day morning left for Washington for
 the purpose of urging Congress to fa- vorably act upon the rivers and har- bors bill. Among the party were w w. Brandon, probate judge of Tusca- loosa, State Senator Thomas Stevens of Mobile, and c. W. Ashcraft of Flor ence.
 The rivers and harbors bill, which is endangered, is of great importance to Alabama, 1t carries appropriations for Alabama streams amounting to s. 000.0 One item would favor the War Tier river with an appropriation of $750,000. The failure of the bill to pass has caused the cessation of all river and harbor improvement in Ala bama.
 It is thought that the delegation will first of all urge the congressman and senators from Alabama to renew their efforts. It is considered probable that thereafter efforts will be made to per lsuade other representatives to exert | themselves in behalf of the bill or to withdraw their opposition. So serious was one member of the party that he thought that it might happen that the President himself would be asked to give his aid.
 As stated, nothing of the plans was discuss<d d. It is significant, however, that one member spoke most optimis- tically. He believes that something will be done to remove objections
 which presently exist and to eliminate certain hindrances. The party carries petitions and me- | morals from all Chambers of Com
 merce in Alabama. Asked why such se-
 crecy was maintained in regard to the purpose of visiting Washington, one
 member of the party declared that it
 was recognized that publicity would
 serve little purpose.

 Travelling men report from all sec tions of the state that great interest is already being taken in the coming convention and that all indications point to an attendance which will far outnumber the crowd last year. The convention of the merchants last year which was the first, Is generally ad- mitted as the most successful thing oi it's kind ever held in Birmingham. The programme for the convention will consist of an equal mixture of pleasure and business. the business consisting of lectures and addresses py we'll known men on subjects which deal with every day problems of the mer- chants.

Thanksgiving Suppers. ,,sl
When the Pilgrim Fathers first set
aside a day for thanksgiving, they
gathered about them their families
and over a table bountifnlly. spread
they gave thanks for the blessings
they had received since coming to the
great new country. And so the Gus
tom of entertaining only members OF
A6dEs family on Thanksgiving day WAS
strictly observed for many years, and
in many homes it is still observed
Grandaully, however, the generous
housewives opened their homes to
those who were less fortunate than
they, or to strange young men and
women who were away from home
In Honolulu this Is more particularly
the custom than in most any other
city. There are many prominent So
ciety women here, who, II their chill
dren have homes of their own, do not
have family reunion OF Thanksgiving
day. but invite to dinner newcomers
who have no homes, and they urge
