RINGING APPEAL MADE IN BEHALF OF
 MEMORIAL HIGHWAY TO JACKSON

North Carolina, the birthplace of All crew Jackson. I file my earnest plea for the great practical and dsefil monument, in the form of public highway from the lakes to the gull which was launched under the auspices of the Alabama Daughters of 1872 In honor of the hero of New Orleans. An drew Jackson was a man of action and one in whose veins blood ran warm and ouick. therefore no monument of uf,- feeling stone to him, no statues ot cold metal. but better yet. a great utiI- tartan. a pulsating life-giving thor ouehfare devoted to the needs and rleasures of those whose prosperity and happiness were largely made pos sible by the tenacity of purpose and temerfty of patriotism of this great; North Carolinian. Call it the Jackso1 highway. build it better than Applus Claudius built the Appian way. and. as near as possible. along the routes s of the doughty old warriors military roads. and a monument will have been built to Gen. Andrew Jackson, patriot, soldier and statesman, that will sur vive longer than the coliseum of an- cient Rome, and reflect honor for -ke pride of posterity.

SERIES OF LECTURES
 CLOSED LAST NIGHT
Educational Workers Much Pleased With Earle
 Barnes Lectures

The eighth annual course of educational and sociological lectures under the auspi- ces of the board of education closed last night. The series of this year consist ing of 12 lectures, were given during the past week-two each day, afternoon and night-by Earle Barnes of Philadelphia. The sentiment seems to be unanimous that the series of the past six days was easily the best course presented in the eight years of it's history.
 Mr. Barnes is al the same time ripe scholar of the broad-gauge type and thorough, scientific student Mir. Barnes
 is a native of New York state; received his education in the Oswego Normal school. Cornell university and the Uni versity of Zurich. He has been engaged in educational work as a teacher and public lecturer since early manhood. He was professor of European history in the state university of Indiana from 1890 to 1892 and professor of education in Leland Stanford university from 1892 to 1897. He has lived seven years in European coun- tries and during that time delivered more than 300 lectures in the universities of London, Oxford, Manchester, Birming- ham, Leeds, the Welsh universities and before other organizations in England. Scotland and Wales.
 MT. Barnes is an author of note, his re- cent books being considered among the most valuable contributions to educa- tional literature both in America and Europe.
 Dr. Phillips and Pro. c. A. Brown are both enthusiastic admirers of Earle Barnes work as an author and at the close of the lecture course expressed themselves as even more biased with his work as a lecturer. They assured MT. Barnes that there could scarcely be a more splendid field for the propa gation of the ideals of which he is so remark able an apostle than in great, cosmopoli- tan Birmingham, and lamented the fact that a greater number of the people had not heard him.
 The closing lecture last night was ''The Broadening of Education

DO NOT APPRECIATE WHAT OTHERS CRAVE

To the Editor of The Age-Herald.
 Having attended services at the beauti- ful Church of the Advent in Birming- another city not long ago. it made me feel sad to note the small congregations there, while the communicants in the mission field would deem it such a privilege to worship in well appointed church.
 There are children of Episcopal parents in this county. IA and Is years of age, and, of course. younger, who have never been in an Episcopal church.
 I heard one little girl say, Mother, wish we had a church. Everybody else has chuch to go to, but we nave to have services at home
 There Is a great need for "Episcopal Missions" throughout the state. In the mission field today l wander Like a sheep lost from it's fold: For Thy Holy Bride I'm longing, And Thy presence to behold While my thoughts are growing weary, Sorrow fills my aching breast, Come dear Lord, console, uplft me As I turn to Thee for rest. Fill my heart and mind with treasures That will shine forever more May thou light the rugged pathway To the bright and golden shore. Many blessings Thou hast given, Many things Thou take each day, Teach me- Lord, to do Thy bidding Nor to tarry by the way. Consecrate me to Thy service, Oversee the tasks I do. Go Thou with me in my labors. Be Thou with me when I'm through, To Thy house, oh Lord, Thou bid us Whether king. or lowly guest What a sweet and sacred welcome Gives you comfort gives you rest. Awake! dear Lord. our careless slumber Let us hear Thy word anew, In the church. at Thy sweet service Let there be no empty pew.

CHINA DEFINITELY REFUSES IMPORTANT PART OF DEMANDS

 To Insist on Demands
 It is known. however, that Japan will continue, at all events. to insist on an acceptance of her demands for railway rights included in group V, as well as the article relating to the purchase of arms and ammunition by China in Japan.
 One of the most important demands in group V which China now has TO- jected, and of peculiar interest .o American missionaries, Is that asking for the right to discuss at a future cate the propagation of Buddhism in China. The Japanese many years ago endeavored to introduce that form of worship into China on extensive scale. but the Chinese dynasty refused to per init 1t.
 While the Japanese attach much ira- portance to the question, persons ia = miliar with the course of far eastern diplomacy said 1t would not be sur rising if, to placate American and European opposition, the entire ques- tion finally was left untouched. es- pecially should the Chinese agree to some of the other demands regarded as more important by Japan
 It was generally believed here that the repection by China of Group V would be followed by. further confer cnces and an endeavor to reconstruct the series of articles along lines more acceptable to China.
 Secretary Bryan continued today his policy of absolute silence on the Jap anese- Chinese situaticn but it is as- sumed in diplomatic quarters here tha' both the United States and Great Brit ain are quietly exertIng influence tc' ward satisfactory adjustment of thu situation by compromises.

FIFE TO INTRODUCE BILL
 FOR CITY MANAGER PLAN
Proposed Measure Will Make This System of City Government Possible by Referendum

Fred Ffte. one of the representatives of Tuscaloosa county, will introduce into the July session of the legislature a bill making possible by referendum, the city manager plan of municipal government.
 Mir. Ffte, who was in Birmingham last night, stated that his bill would be general bill, although he had not deter mined whether or not it would be the part of wisdom to circumseribe it by limitation of population.
 q have concluded" said he and I believe the majority of people of Tusca loosa are with ne, that municipal goy- ernment should be either representative as exemplified under the system of mayor and board of aldermen, highly cen tralized. one-man government. The city manager plan has worked excellently in several American cities, notably Dayton, C., where a former resident of Birming ham has entire charge, and it would serve an excellent purpose. we believe, in Alabama. At any rate, I will initiate the fight in the legislature in July for the city manager plan. and in years to come, that plan. I believe. will generally ob- tain throughout Alabama

Mobile, on to New Orleans. the other over the old Three Notch road to Troy, over into Georgia and get on the Dixie highway going to Florida. Let's have no antagonism be- tween the two roads I appeal to you to protect the right of way of the Jack son highway from Chicago down through Tennessee.
 "In planning this highway the Ala bama Daughters of 1872 were in perfect accord with the director of public roads, who advocates the building of trunk lines first, then building the intercommunicat- ing roads. We have tried to keep politics and sectionalism out of our work, first to build monument to Andrew Jackson in the shape of a transcontinental highway; second to try to educate the people up to the belief that highway was bet ter monument-a more useful monument than one of marble to our heroic dead.
 Again l appeal to you In the words or F Mrs. Walter w. Watt or Charlotte, N. C., who represented the chairman at good roads meeting in Baltimore June, 1872:

OUTDOOR CIR &c &c WOMEN
AGAINST SCHOOL SHOP

Objection to the erection Of "a car.
penter shop on the old Fort street
school property was made In 4 lengthy
communication to the board Of super
visors last night by the Outdoor Circle
and the professors ask that the build
ing now ID course Of construction be
removed at once.
Part Of the communication is as fol-
lows:
THE governor OF the territory set
aside this particular piece of property
for park purposes, and the proclama-
ton is matter of public record. We
submit that you have no right to use
the grounds so set aside. for establish
ing county work shop and that the
fact as stated By you, viz. that YOU
did not know that the property had
been so set aside, was no satisfactory
excuse and that after this had been.
brought to your attention that work
should have been stopped. Aside from
the matter Of your having no right to.
use the grounds for this purpose Is
the fact that the presence Of -such q
building on the grounds tends to de-
stroy the use Of them for play-grounds
for children, particularly girls. and so
defeats the purpose for which the
property was set aside.
While 1t is unfortunate that you
did not know the circumstances when
you planned to put your building there
yet as explained we notified you as
soon as we knew Of your intentions
and we certainly think that there is
only one thing for. you to do, both
legally and morally, and that Is to re-
move the building.
