And didn't you long Co feel that peculiar Christmas spirit that is in the very air in cities and villages for more than a week before Christmas day itself?

LIQUOR DEALERS
 GET THEIR MONEY
Attorney General Martin Holds Re- funds Due Immediately and County
 Treasurer Draws Cheeks

Under the ruling of the attorney gen. eral all liquor dealers of the state are entitled to a refund at once of one-half of the license paid into the county treas- ury on the first of this year. Yester- day Attorney John w. Altman, who re- gently made application for the refund for 27 liquor dealers in Birmingham and Bessemer received from the county treas- urer checks for the amounts due each of his clients. The county refund to the retail dealer was SS71.25. to the wholesale dealer $185.62. These figures apply to Bir- mingham. the Bessemer retail dealers re- ceiving $297.
 Attorney Altman presented the claims for the refund to the board of revenue several days ago. On the advice of it's attorney, w. K. Terry, the board of revenue allowed the claims, and ordered them paid. The question was raised by Treasurer c. B. Rogers as to whether he had the authority to pay out these amounts before July l. and on agreement between him and MT. Altman the matter was held up. until the opinion of the at- torney genelhl was secured.
 MT. Altman presented his claims to the state auditor for the refund of the amount received by the state from the liquor licenses. and in the matter being presented to Attorney General Martin he held that the refunds were due now and should be paid. On the opinion of the attorney general the checks were paid by County Treasurer Rogers.

ANNISTON

Anniston, April 6.--(Special )-Monday was the official "clean up' day in Annis- ton. It was designated by Mayor J. L. Wilxle as a day on which every citizen was expected to make a special effort to rid the city of all trash and to thor oughly clean and renovate every lot in Anniston. The movement was indorsed and had the hearty cooperation of va rious clubs in the city, and the Civic league was especially active in this work.
 As n result of the campaign against trash, filth and germs begun early Mon day morning. the city's dumping grounds for garbage have grown to large propor- tions. Mayor Wilxle instructed Sanitary Inspector Edwin Jewell to put as large a force of men at work as possible for the purpose of collecting the trash and car rying it to the dumping grounds. In- spector Jewell now has about 10 wagons and 40 men engaged in this work, which will be continued until the city is thor oughly rid. of all accumulations of such material
 The clean-up campaign has not yet ended. The Civic league has determined to see that back fences are whitewashed vacant lots planted in flowers or vege- tables, signs and billboards must meet

WILLIAM GIDEON'S AMBITION
 TO BE A BUSINESS MAN
Carries Papers to Smith, field Residents 365 Days in the Year-He Also Is Determined to Have One of Those Redwood Sea- son Tickets
Ky ELLIS c. HoLLUMs

William Gideon is the name of the fellow a column to your right. Look him over He carries The Age-Herald to residents of SmithfieId 365 days in the year. His misses are so seldom that the office never hears of them. He is one of the fellows who is determined to win a season ticket to Redwood, and, after glaneing at that determined jaw of the boy. I am convinced he will be returned winner when all the votes are in
 There remain but seven days until the Southern league season officially opens The carrier boys of The Age-Herald are working hard for those season tickets and when the first game is played the Chamber of Commerce crowd will be largely augmented by boys who deliver an Age-Herald to every fan who will be on the grounds. It will be such a demon stration that Birmingham hardly can help but cop that attendance record for the steeenth consecutive time.
 But let's get back to the subject Will liam says it is his ambition to be a business man when he grows up. He now is A years old and is one of the most aggressive business-getters on The Age Herald's staff of young Americans. His face is typical of one who goes after what he wants in an above-board manner tells opposition he Is going to smash it and does so.
 He plays baseball and football and at tends the Paul Hayne school. He is ag- gressive in everything he goes after. He has initiative and doesn't have to be told what to do. He can grasp a situation

GERMAN BLOCKADE
 ALLOW ID TEXTILE
Industries Will Be Severely Crippled Unless Situa-
 tiOn Is Relieved

Washington, April GA gloomy view of the immediate future of the American textile industry was presented at the White House and the state department today by committee representing 400 mills, headed by former Representative Metz of New York. Unless some relaxa tion of the British blockade is obtained and German dyestuff reach then within six weeks time, MT. Metz declared. 27O mills will be forced to close and 26o,0o0 opera tives be thrown out of work.
 Government officials held out no great hope to the textile men. The situation is complicated in the extreme and ap- parently there is little prospect of fram- ing an agreement satisfactory to both Great Britain and Germany.
 Under a previous agreement with Ger many, ships carrying American cotton to German ports were permitted to bring back dyestuffs The new British order. however, has struck at this traffic in both directions and officials were at loss today for new plan under which the German chemicals could be obtained.
 The textile representatives called at the German embassy here after the con ference with government officials, and the ambassador. Count Won Bernstorff, suggested that there would be no further trouble about dyestuffs shipments if they could get the United States to threaten an embargo on exports of war supplies to Great Britain unless interference with trade between America and Germany in foodstuffs, cotton and other noncontra- band goods ceased.
 The ambassador reiterated the recent declaration of the Berlin foreign office of Germanys willingness to discontinue the sinking without notice by submarine of British merchantmen if Great Britain would stop molesting noncontraband cargoes consigned to German civilians.
