church of more than 45 years good stand- ing in Alabama. was and is highly offen- sive, false, untrue and in law libelous in every respect, humiliating to me and my family, hurtful to my feelings and highly injurious to my character and reputation as citizen and as the minister of the gospel.
 Now, therefore, by authority of the law in Alabama in such cases i here hy demand of you that within five days from receipt of this communication you publish in said Age-Herald full and fair retraction of such false charge or matter in as prominent and public place or manner as the said charge and mat ter occupied. I call your attention to the fact that said cartoon and lihelocs charge against me was printed in the center of first page of said paper and occupied a space of three columns in width and a greater space than that from top to bottom, beginning at a point just under the date line.
 "Furthermore, as a man and a cit izen of Alabama, a minister of the gos- pei and a prohibitionist of more than 45 years standing. and a total ab- stainer all my life from intoxica ting beverages, I hereby again raise my earnest protest not only against this special libel upon me in the form of an offensive cartoon, but also against like cartoons appearing from day to day m said paper representing prohibition ists as boxers or drinkers of liquors, hypocrites and as occupying friendly elations with blind tigers.

RepOrt on Education

L. Sevier and H. II. Sims, who investi- gated education, said
 Birmingham spends much less on her public schools than any other city of anything like her population and territory; and the fund applied to our school sys- tenn with one exception seems to be ex- pended with good judgment and economy. It must be increased instead of being re- duced. That exception is the free school books. Free school books should never have been introduced until compulsory education shall be established. But now that we have them, of course it is hard to cut them off. Without dwelling fur ther on that injudicious expenditure we have few recommendations to make, rather to avoid the possibility of waste than to correct any material waste at present existing. We cannot see why there must be purchasing agent for the board of education separate from that for the general city government Moreover by having the city's general purchasing agent purchase for the board of education A small salary would be saved.

''The total number of arrests made in the city of Birmingham for the year ending September 30, 1914, was the enor- nous total of 21,667. Of this grand total, there was delivered to the sheriff of Jeff ferson county, federal authorities, juve- nile court, etc., 26O3 cases. For making these arrests, the city of Birmingham re- ceived absolutely nothing, although the city furnished transportation and paid all the expense in connection with the ar rests. It seems to me that a law should be passed by the legislature that will reimburse the city for the arrests made for the benefit of the county
 Tn conclusion After carefully going over the records of the police depart ment, it appears to me that this depart ment is economically and carefully man. aged The amount of work done indi- cates that the department is efficient and the only criticism can offer is that the force is too small for the city of Bir- mingham."

West Virginia Wesleyan Basketball Team Quits When Its
Star Player Is Barred for Using
Profane Language.

With ten minutes left to play in the
final period. Referee CoIlifiower dis
qualified Right Guard Neale. of the
West Virginia Wesleyan basketball
team, and as the men refused to con-
tinue without the services of their star
player, the game was forfeited to
Georgetown by . to 0.
At the time OF NeaIe's disqualified
ton the score stood 81 to "a in favor
of the Hilltop coIlegians. and the crowd
of students in Ryan gymnasium gave
vent to their feelings in no uncertain
tones.
Cries OF You're yellow-a bunch of
cutters" and other epithets were
hurled at the visitors. and Graduate
Manager Charley Cox was urged not to
pay the West Nirginians their guaran-
tee, but after the noise had subsided
and the visitors had changed their togs
for street clothes the guarantee was
promptly turned over. but the chances
are that in the future West Virginia
Wesleyan will not find a place on
Georgetown's basketball schedule.
According to Referee Collihower. who
had previously warned Neale several
times. the visitors star not only kicked
vigorously on a decision, but used pro-
fame language, which was considered
sufficient cause to remove him from the
game, and the college undergraduates
backed up the official in his action.

running a college team through his

colleges allow like occurrences basket
ball is ready for a quick decline. The

In A STARTLING SPEECH

At the banquet OF the Inter-FFaternity
Association Of the George Washington
University last night at the Raleigh
Hotel three hundred students and friends
gathered around the table.
Prof. l. C. McNemar. the director Of
athletics at the New York Avenue Insti-
tute, startled those present by delivering
a striking speech on the athletic situa-
ton at the university.-He went deep into
the subject OF the present and future
athletics at the institute and made public
that unless a better response was made
in the purchasing of the athletic associa-
tiOn's tickets that IT is likely that the
Buff and Blue would not be represented
in any branch OF sports in 1915 and 1915.
This appeal OF Prof. McNemar's mce.s
with favor Of the fraternity members who
were present. He went on to show that
out of LOO students which are enrolled
at George Washington that but IL are
members Of the athletic association. Stu
dents must join the association or G. W.
L. will not come into the athletic world.
Prof. McNemar showed where George
could act as the third party
in the little miX-up between Georgetown
and Catholic University and also Of being
a go-between with the University Of Vir-
ginia in the intercollegiate affairs in this
His final appeal was for the
