 The Second avenue Kress store will be closed until the new building is placed in service the Kress company doing all of It's business in the Third avenue store Mir McCleery stated. however, that after the goods have been removed from the Second avenue store passage way will be constructed from Second avenue lead ing into the rear of the Third avenue store and thereby affording that store a Second avenue entrance, which will he maintained throughout the construction of the new building.
 MT. McCleery said yesterday that the work of tearing down the two old build ings would begin tomorrow morning and as soon as they were removed the con struction of the new building, which Is to cost $65,000. will be started. The Kress company expects to get into this new building by October this year. The building itself. just the bare walls and fioors will cost $65 600. says MT. McCleery.
 
 will make a much larger investment. The new building will be directly across Sec ond alley from the present Third avenue Kress store, thus giving that company when completed an exceedingly large store straight through from one avenue to the other.
 T. S. Abernathy owner and operator of the Odeon No. theatre, which closed to make room for the new Kress build ing, stated yesterday that he has plans under way for the construction of new motion picture theatre, which will be the most beautiful of its kind in the south. He stated 1t would not be so large. but much attention would be given to its ar- tistic furnishings. decorations and gen. eral beauty. Arrangements are not yet complete and 1fr.

.ROEbUCK CLUB WILL HAVE NEW QUARTERS $75,O00 Clubhouse Will Be Built When Membership
 Justifies It

The Roebuck Golf and Auto club Is to construct s75,00> clubhouse. This information was generally known yestsr- day in the city among golfers and mem bers of the various clubs. by reason of a strenuous campaign that has been in- augurated for new members by the Roe buck club It is stated that from 80 members at 300 each the club has jumped to over leo and that when 200 members or perhaps few more are secured the new clubhouse will be constructed.
 As is well known the present build ing is only being used until the member ship justifes the larger and more elab- crate building. It is stated that w. w. Crawford, president of the American Trust and Savings bank, has promised to finance the new building for the club just as soon as the few remaining members have been secured. Every morning at 10 O clock the committee headed by Robert A. Brown. the president, meets at tho offices of MT. Crawford and each of the 10 members of the committee must bring in a new application. The efforts have proven unusually successful and the mem- bers are confident that the new club house Is going to be realized soon.
 Robert A. Brown. the members say. has proven a remarkable president for the club. The membership has increased and the club has grown constantly in favor among golfers and clubmen. The new golf course of 19 straight holes is said to be easily the best in the southern states. The course Was laid out by H. H. Barker, the noted expert, who is the instructor at Roebuck. The links, tho beauty of the club grounds. the ideal sit- uation in many ways, are features that have enabled the members being able to convince prospective m>mbers to join the organization.
 The new club building will be designed by william c. Weston. the architect. and 1t will be located on the knoll which io reached by the steps from the present teanporazy club.

Ordinance Will Be Adopted. Commission to Hear Con-
 tractors Protest

Two matters of considerable import ance are scheduled for action at the city commission meeting Tuesday, be- ing. respectively, the street remaining ordinance and the hearing of the pro- test of the small contractors of the city against the recent ordinance compell- ing them to give bond and take out a license
 The street remaining ordinance, which has been pending before the commits sion for the past several months will be reported favorably and adopted at the meeting Tuesday, to go into effect September 1. The delay in putting the new arrangement into effect Is caused by the necessity of having made and placed 800 or 10000 street signs.
 This ordinance is one of the most important passed by the commission in many months 1t is said, as it will af- feet practically every citizen in Great CT Birmingham. It provides for a com plete remaining and renumbering of the city's streets occasioned by the many repetitIons of street names and num- bers which now exist and which have existed since Greater Birmingham was incorporated. The merchants are anx- ious to have the new ordinance go into effec' so they can familiariZe them- selves with 1t in time for the Christ mas shopping deliveries.
 The contractors protest is against law adopted by the commissioners at the meeting last Tuesday providing that all contracto and foremen and persons doing carpenter and similar work will have to make a bond to guarantee compliance with the city building laws and will have to take fr, sol t1aA 4<.u has evolved itself into a contest be- tween the big and little contractors, the little ones being opposed to the law and the big ones favoring 1t. Both sides are expected to be represented at the commission meeting Tuesday.
