 Aud yet how little of these physical advantages is known to the world,' said.
 Exactly" replied MT. Miner. ''These beautiful natural environments and the unsurpassed climate of Birmingham should be advertised to the world. We have been advertised commercially to large extent, but we ought to let the world know that Birmingham is good place to live in. Few people think of Birmingham as a home town, but only as a place to make money in Tourists should be invited to stop here and spend the winter and what we have to offer This kind of advertising would do Bir- mihgham more good than anything else ina gnable, and it would give us a better starding with the world at large than any thing else could possibly do.'
 Now as to the first steps regarding the Highland Avenue Improvement associa- tion" Mr Miner said, T mean to confer with the different florists nurserymen and the people who are experts in these things and get their ideas about plants and flowers. and find out what is best adapted to this soil and climate. l want to ask the co cooperation of the men and women who are property owners on Highland avenue from Five Points to Vine and Twenty sixth streets, inclusive, which is the area contained in the association proper l want everything to be gotten in readiness this summer, as I said at the beginning SD that when our plans are full formu- lated we can begin operations in the fall in earnest.'
 MT Miners ideas are sane, practical and conservative on the city beautiful question. and the unexcelled taste he has displayed in the development of his own property, "Milner Heights" which is one of the most beautiful of all Birmingham's S residential sections shows very plainly that he is the right man in the right place as head of the Highland Avenue Improve ment association.
 | Mir. Mlner will no doubt meet with hearty cooperation from all those who are interested in the city beautiful idea, and it is safe to say that his plans will be ness venture that he has ever made has been marked by the one word success, and a man who is successful with his 1 own affairs is more than apt to be suc- cessful in whatever else attempts.
