BIRMINGHAM MAY
 GET 1916 MEETING
Radcliffe Says He did Not Try for
 1915 Convention of the Sunday School Association

Secretary William C. Radcliffe of the Chamber of Commerce and Secretary Sam Fowlkes of the Business Mems League, yesterday wired that the indications point ed to Birmingham securing the 1916 con- vention of the Alabama Sunday School association. The two secretaries have been in Mobile lobbying in the interest of Birmingham for the meeting place or the three conventions which met there this week. They probably will return to Birmingham tomorrow
 Dothan secured the convention of the Alabama Sunday School association for 1915 and the impression became general locally that Birmingham had been beaten by a much smaller city in it's own state. This was erroneous, however, and the secretaries in their telegram say they did not try to secure the 1915 convention Of the association. The telegram follows:

An interesting circular letter which IS being distributed all over the country by Charles F. Weller, manager of the Play ground and Recreation Association of America, has been received in Birming- ham, and contains some very interesting data about this city The letter gives some examples of work being done by the association. of which Birmingham is the southern headquarters. The part relat- ing to this city is as follows:
 .All the cities I visit feel poorl In Bir- mingham the community is splendidly prosperous, but the city government is restricted by an arbitrary tax limit so i'm adequate that the municipality is steadily condition is expected to be corrected when the legislature meets again.
 Despite this urgent need for extreme economy, our southern field secretary, MT. Settle. got the city to establish six new playgrounds last summer which off, fer daily opportunities for life more abundant to the Ss,52s children of the city.
 ''The actual attendance from. July to January was 94,os2.. The total cost to the city of Birmingham was only $22S6. 25, or less than 21z cents (.024S3 per child per day. Local communities around the play grounds also contributed about $500 for equipment and $50 for supervision.)
 ''Here-as in practically every other community we have organized-we were able to enlist appropriate, growing sup port from public funds for the local play grounds. But there are no public funds, no taxing power. from which we might

 This water to flush the pump must be provided by voluntary contributions. In Birmingham the live Chamber of Com merce subscribed s1ooo, citizehs another 5000, last year toward the $65o0 annual cost of our southern field service.
 'In b southern cities last year our new southern field secretary gave from few days to three, nine or-in Birmingham IA weeks service in each city.
 What this meant, and will mean in- creasingly, for the practical enlargement and ennoblement of life, is suggested by the census report that the number of chil- dren under 15 who live in these 15 com munities is 386. 254.
 "The s6500 spent for our southern field service last year was an average of less than 1 cent for each of these 306 254 chill dren, for whom playgrounds and recrea- tional activities could not be effectively developed without such initiative, guid- ance and organizing power as our field secretary provides

While she was making the drink Mrs. Herring walked to a store- room closet about 10 feet away and came out in a moment reeling, as if in a faint.

 that there were five democrats who op- posed the resolution. Three of them from Mississippi, Representatives Sis son, Witherspoon and Stephens. How these southerners can ever explain to their constituency their reason for not supporting their President in a crisis of this character is a problem which their colleagues admit they would not at tempt to solve Political advantage and bitter partisanship can be urged in be- half of the republicans, who failed to rise above politics. it is pointed out but what reason could have prompted a democrat to withhold his support of

Hulling walnuts Made Easy

AS ordinarily practised, hulling wax
nuts is troublesome because of the
stain and the tediousness of the work.
An ingenious youth therefore con-
trived a better method by using an
old discarded barrel churn. He
half filled it with walnuts, added a
little coarse gravel and enough water
to cover the walnuts, and turned the
churn at a moderate hate half an
hour. The walnuts were completely
hulled.

A SCIENTIST stood and watched
IN some cowboys trying to load a
balky horse into a cattle car.
Every expedient seemed to be tried,
but the animal persisted in declining to
enter the car. After the scientist had
watched the cowboys at work for half
an hour, he suggested that rope be
tied round the animals rump and
led ahead. Then that one of the
cowboys haul on the rope. The idea
worked to perfection. Try it; it may
save you many fruitless minutes with
a balky horse.
