SOME THINGS
To Cheer You Up!

wv SPs
and things that it will not
be hard to find others
haven't got.
We have peace with all
the world, while sixty per
cent of the nations of the
earth are stepped in blood,
rapine and the ravages of
the most senseless and de-
structive war ever known
to man.
We have something to eat
and wear, while all over the
world we read of starving,
naked and dying millions,
and even in the United
States and South Carolina
we read of bread lines that
grow longer, and hungry
children who eat raw dough
when the chance is offered
because they are too near
starved to wait until it can
be cooked.
The most Of us have some kind of
job and place to work as yet, while
we read that over five million men
without jobs or work. many of them
with wives and children dependent On
them, and begging for work Of any
kind, in America today.
We have had since the be-
ginning of the New Year
and with the dying days of
1914, some days of the most
glorious sunshine, the most
beautiful nights, and the
most invigorating and balmy
breezes. while others are
tortured with thermometers
all the way from four to 50
degrees below zero, and
others are struggling 1r.
seas of half frozen mud 70
the waist. and others are
strewing the frozen wastes
of snow with martyrs blood.
Altogether God is good.
he still rules, and righteous
ness is not yet dead in the
land. We have better than
we deserve, and best Of all
we have hope and opportun-
ity for ourselves. we are
ashamed that we have ever
murmured. complained or
doubted. We have set our
faces towards the future
with a determination to do
all that in us lies for our
own prosperity and for the
welfare Of every customer
of our business. We are de-
termined that for 1915, we
will give YOU better service,
better values and more ap-
probation than ever before.
All we ask is that you rally
with us-we will do our part
to contribute to your pros
perity and happiness.
One Of the opportunities
we offer you now is the
chance to save from SOC to
S1.OO per barrel, less than
the wholesale car price to us
on good Flour. Just unload
ed three cars extra fine flour
we guarantee if you will
act at once, to sell you any of
this Flour at SOC per barrel
or more, less than you can
buy a car load Of the same

We are also Offering un-

MRS. LEAKE THINKS SHE
 CAN WRITE THE BEST AID;
 WILL ENTER CONVENTION

Mrs. Mabel Ford Leake. secretary of the Birmingham Furniture Dealers as- sociation, and an advertising writer of almost nationwide fame, will be dele gate to The Age-Herald Advertisers con- yention, which will be held December 2, for the purpose of determining, by a vote of the advertisers of Birmingham. who shall be the recipient of a S750 player piano, which will be given to anyone whom the convention decides is entitled to it.
 In order to be a delegate one must write an advertisement and get it in seted in The Age-Herald. Once a dele gate, everyone has an opportunity of be- ing nominated candidate for the player piano.
 In order to win the piano, it will be necessary for the convention to declare that the candidate has written the best, most attractive and most productive ad- vertisement which appeared in The Age Herald up to December g.
 It will be remembered that last year Mrs. Leake was awarded a prize of $1O by nonpartisan committee for writing the most attractive ad that appeared in The Age-Heraid in a given period. The ad which Mrs Leake wrote at that time was for the Perfection Mattress com pany The vote was not unanimous, be- cause one of the judges happened to own share of stock in the Perfection Mat tress company and was afraid. that he would be considered unfair if he voted for an advertisement of his own com rany. However, the other judges were unanimous and his negative vote did not matter.
 Mrs. Leake says she would like very much to possess player-piano such as The Age-Herald proposes to give and she intends writing all her advertisements for The Age-Herald in the most artistic and pulling style possible. Mrs. Leake wants to get the musical instrument on

TODAY IS FIRST OF SERIES
 OF DAYS FOR SEALS SALE

Today is the first of a series of four Red Cross days in the local de- partment stores. Every store which sends out a wrapped package today will place upon 1t a Red Cross seal. The same thing will be done next Wednesday and the next and on every Wenesday in December, the idea be- ing to boost the sale of Red Cross seals for the benefit of the work against tuberculosis in Jefferson county.
 It is the intention of the Jefferson County Anti ti-Tuberculosis association to sell 100000 Red Cross seals in Bir- mingham and the county this Decem- Der. Dr. Raves. secretary, said yester- day that $15,00o would be needed this year to properly carry on the work of fighting the dread white plague and expressed confidence that the people of Birmingham would respond in their usual generous manner.
 The sale of Red Cross seals already is we'll under way, and thousands of letters are being mailed to people Throughout Alabama, and the return envelopes are coming in rapidly, bear ing cash. money orders and checks in payment for the seals
 Governor Henderson was the first purchaser of Red Cross seals in Bir- minghan, buying. the first sheet of seals to be torn from the packet. This purchase will not affect the seals which the governor will buy in Mont gomery His mail now is going out of the capitol with Red Cross seals pasted on the back of each envelope or pack age

MRS. STRAIGHT ID !. LEAVE BIRMINGHAM Resigns as Head of Welface Department and Will
 Move to Memphis

Mrs Wilson Searight, for several years head of the Birmingham welfare depart ment, has terminated her services with the city of Birmingham.
 According to announcement Mrs. Sea right will remove from the city, and in tse future will reside in Memphis. where MT. Searght has located in business.
 Mrs. Searight had not been at the city hall for several weeks. About a month ago her health broke down and she went to the Birmingham infirmary for com plete rest. Since her return to her home she has been preparing to leave the city, and her decision came yesterday morning at meeting of the committee of ladies in charge of the Christmas festival, the pro- ceeds of which will go to the welfare de- partment. Mrs. Searight made the an- nouncement with tears streaming down her checks, ard she then plead that all possible support be given to Mrs. Lind ley, who has been matron in charge of the welfare department in the absence of Mrs Searight.
 The welfare department was organized about three years ago with Mrs. Searight as it's head Under the energetic execu- tive hand of Mrs. SearighJ hundreds of unfortunates were made to see the error of their ways. and her charitable hand was felt everywhere. Her social service work soon attracted wide attention, and Mrs. Searight in the past two years has been much in demand as a speaker on social welfare work in the large cities of the United States
 The city has suffered a distinct loss,'' was the brief comment of Commissioner George B. Ward. when he was informed yesterday afternoon of Mrs. Searight's s decision to leave Birmingham
