FINAL SESSION OF PRESbYTERY HELD Meets Next at TaylOrsville. Decide to Raise
 $12,500

The next annual sessions of the North Alabama presbytery will be held at Eben- ezer No. 1, Taylorsville, near Huntsville, on the Tennessee river. This was decided at the closing meeting last night, held In the Woodlawn Presbyterian church. Dr. r. B. Webb of Talladega preached the sermon last evening, Dr. Henry M Edmonds having found 1t impossible to do so.
 At the sessions yesterday it was de- cided to raise $50o0 to extend the Pres byterian orphanage at Talladega and to in the field a superintendent of home missions and to aid weak churches, or any other benevolent work of the church that might require aid. The orphanage, it was pointed out, Is badly in need of extension it being entirely inadequate for the demands made upon it.
 The meeting of the ptesbytery during the last three days has been very suc- oessful and the delegates will leave to- day for their homes. Many expressed their pleasure at being in Birmingham and many complimentary remarks were heard about the chuch in which the meetings were held. This is the new Presbyterian church at Fifty-seventh street and First avenue
 The meeting next year Is being antici- pated with pleasure by the delegates, 1t is said. and it Is believed many will at tend the presbytery, notwithstanding the fact that 1t is to be held way out in the country.

To sell $200,0o0 worth of property in less than four weeks just at this season is accepted as an indication that the real estate mar ket is good. MT.

MILAN ADOPTS THE
 PARCEL POST PLAN
Library Will Now Send Books Through Mails at
 Borrowers Expense

Following the appearance of The Age Herald editorial yesterday morning re- garding the use of the parcel post in some cities for the distribution of public li- brary books to library patrons and mem bers. Public Library Director Milan of this city established rule for the local library system which will do the same thing.
 He announced the new rule yesterday afternoon as follows:
 Anyone who has a library card will be allowed to order books. other than fiction. by telephone or letter to his business or residence address. to be sent by parcel post at his expense. The books may be kept the usual two weeks. and may be re- newed. The postage must be refunded when the book is returned"
 MT. Milan pointed out that anyone who was a member of the library and could be trusted with a book could also be trust ed with paying the postage when he re- turned the book. q have thought of the parcel post Idea for county or township libraries in rural communities but it never occurred to me that for cents the same system could be used in the city. think it will work very well, although we do not expect a very large usage of the new rule. It appears to me 1t will come in handy in cases of emergency or where special circumstances make this system of getting library book advis- able.
 Another window exhibit of what the library has for the business man of Bir- mingham will be installed in Burnett s cigar store window in the Brown-Marx building today, and will remain there for a week. It will be on the First avenue side, and we expect 1t to attract much attention. The display this time will treat especially of books for business men un- der such topics accounting, drawing, transportation, concrete, electrical engi- nering, municipal affairs. mining, indus trial chemistry and others. Every busi- ness man who so far has not availed him. self of the library can spend a few val uable moments next week deciding for himself what that window. display can mean to him if he follows it's call and be- comes member of the library system.

WEATHERLY AGREES
 WITH PASCHAL SHOOK
Thinks Site for Auditorium Should Be Rented on Long Term
 Lease

Commissioner James Weatherly agrees with President Paschal G. Shook of the Chamber of Commerce, he stated yester- day. regarding the proper plan to pur- chase a site for the new peoples audi torium which is to be erected here soon, providing the supreme court holds the bond issue for that purpose valid.
 'I agree with MT. Shook entirely in his plan to rent site on a long term lease at reasonable rate, which I think could be easily arranged as the auditorium which we would build on the lot would increase the values of surrounding prop erty. Then when the lease expired we probably would be able to buy the prop erty and own the site and building both
 Tt is going ito take all, or so nearly all, of that $9O0,000 to build proper and adequate auditorium that it seems certain we would not have enough left to buy 8 proper site now. There is no doubt but what it would be inadvisable to attempt to place the structure on city park prop erty. Even though it did seem there was no legal objection to the move, it would lay the mater liable to no end of trouble at any time in the future, and would therefore be a needless risk"

WILL CONFER TODAY ABOUT SHRINKING Commission Has Differences With Manufacturers of
 New Street Flusher

This morning the city commissioners and officials of the Birmingham Railway. Light and Power company are scheduled to hold a conference relative to the street car company sprinlSling certain streets Of the city over which 1t operates lines. The Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company and the Tidewater company also have agreed to cooperate with Inc city fin this regard
 The commissioners are fairly well pleased with the new fiusher by this time. but they state that they have not been treated in exactly business like man. ner by the company which manufactures the machine While the matters in ques- ton are nothing important, the comms- sioners insist that they are going to have satisfaction out of the company or there may be some interesting consequences
 One feature of the new flusher is that 1t meets the approval of the paving con- tracting men. who at first had opposed the machine on the grounds that the wash away the street where such ma terials as bitulithic or asphalt had been used as the pavement. The payers state. however. after seeing this machine work. that the stream is not strong enough 90 hurt the pavement, although at the same time It appears to have enough strength to wash the dirt from the street into the gutters and thence into the sewers.
 Another machine of exactly the same kind will probably be purchased by the city providing the little differences with the company are satisfactorily adjusted.

ID OFFER ID BUILD
 MILE OF PAVING Copeland-Inglis Company Wants to Demonstrate
 Brick for City

The success that has been attained with country and city roads built elsewhere of Birmingham brick has encouraged the Copeland-1nglis Shale Brick company or this city to offer to construct a strip one mile long for the city of Birmingham as an experiment. It is stated that an offer of this kind will be formally made to Commissioner James Weatherly, in charge of the streets for the city.
 That the brick will last 10 years longer than any known materials, that 1t will be as efficient in 10 years from its con struction as on the day 1t is opened for traffic are some of the claims of the men who are interested. It is proposed to put down the paving where traffic Is heavy and where 1t will be thoroughly tested.
 It Is stated that the story that it re- qures a costly foundation for brick pav- ing has been dissipated, and that the natural earth properly rolled is adequate.
 John Copeland said yesterday that 1t will cost very little money to construct the experimental strip, and that he would pay most of whatever cost was involved. 1e said that if the city would place the brick under the supervision of one of his men he would demonstrate the paving. MT Copeland said that he hoped very strong ly that he would be able to interest the commission in regard to hls plan as he felt sure the experiences in Florida would be more than borne out here. MT. Cope lands company last week sold 6o0o,00o brick for paving work In Florida
