iniustice and tyranny is found in the fact
 that at least one of the university's lUf arbitrarily favored schools has now an attendance of 56S pupils with total or lS
 teachers, only 15 of whom devote all their
 time to academic work. This means an average of over 30 pupils to the teacher. The Introductory Latin class at this
 school has 45 pupils, taught by one young lady. The introductory algebra class has 45 nupils taught by single teacher. And
 vet boys from this crowded school may enter the University of Alabama without
 a question, while more thoroughly pre-
 na red boy, coming from Starke's school,
 which has a total attendance of only 45
 boys. taught in small classes by three ex-
 for admission.
 The university's unfairness is seen again
 in the fact that, though striking Starke's school from the list of affiliated schools, the president of the University of Ala hama writes persuasive letters to an un- dergraduate of Starke's school, and takes this young man into the university be- fore he has completed the preparatory course which the university professes to require for admission. Fair-minded pro- fessors in the University of Alabama are conscious of this injustice toward Starke's school; students in the classes there are conscious of It; many students and teachers throughout the state arc conscious of it; and yet the injustice stands
 I submit that this tyrannous course on the part of the University of Alabama does not set proper ideals of liberty

CHILDREN WILL
 VISIT ALCAZAR

The Alcazar manager, MT. Griffin, is to be god father bountiful" to the chil- dren of the institutional life of the city, and has invited each institution to send the children to the children's matinees on different Saturday mornings
 Of course, the little people will have a grand time, and the splendid pictures will be enjoyed by all the children of the city, both those of the sheltered and favored parent and the child of the homes.
 On this Saturday the committee of ladies that have this in charge will have at the theatre the children from the Ju- venile Court Detention home and the Mercy home little ones.
 The children's matinees are becoming a real factor in the public life of the child of Birmingham, and should be patronized by all. The generosity of the manager has strong appeal to the public, and will long be a treasured memory in the minds of the little ones who attend at his invitation.

 I'D USURY CHARGE AGAINST BANKERS
lives Figures on Number of National Banks Which Are Violating the Usury Laws

Washington, November 26.-(Special.) Il a circular letter to national banks ated October 27, 1915, in which John Skel-
 ,n Williams, the comptroller of the cur |Ancy. called the attention of the na- Ional banks to the usury laws, and to he oaths taken by national bank direc-
 prs, he stated that a great many nation ! banks had grossly violated the laws |sainst usury.
 The executive committee of the national nk section of the American Bankers |ssociation.< in a letter to the comptroller, |ated November 15. 1915, complained that he comptroller's statement above re- |srred to had created a bad impression nd had done a great injustice to the |reat majority of bankers, and requested he comptroller to modify and correct his
 atements on the subject.
 The comptroller's reply, dated Novem- Fer 2S, 1915. is in part as follows: "Gentlemen Your letter of the 18th | stant has been received and considered. You inform me that full meeting l
 |, the 18th instant took up for consid- .-ation circular letter addressed by this |fice under date of October 27, to all na- onal banks. calling the attention of the |anks to the laws against usury and to | ne oarhs taken by national bank direc- prs to observe the statutes of the United |tates. The circular letter also stated
 tat the records of this office show that great many national banks have gross i violated the usury laws.
 You inform me that your committee |nanimously adopted a resolution declar- fg it to be the opinion of the commit
 se that the usurious practices complained f are confined only to some sections
 the country and are not general and
 ou ask this office to make such modi- cations of the statements embraced in .umber of banks which have not vio- ted the statutes relating to rates of Eterest.'
 My statement that a great many na-
 onal banks have grossly violated sec

Gov. Henderson in Mobile

Montgomery. November 26.-(Spe- cial.)-Governor Henderson is in Mo- bile today, having gone to that city from Baldwin county where he spent Thanksgiving day. This is the first time the governor has visited Mobile in many months and will probably spend Saturday in the Gulf City. Ow- ing to the absence of many officials, very little business was transacted at the capitol today. A number of heads of departments went to their homes in distant parts of the state to spend Thanksgiving and will probably not return before Monday.

Sunday Movies

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Although l do not dispute for a mo- ment the beneficial moral influence some people will derive from attending church. whether on a Sunday or on any other day, I challenge anyone to prove that the mere visiting of moving picture shows on Sundays will make those wis.,
 tors any worse than they really are. For this reason only. the closing of these theatres would not be justified.
 This closing seems too much inter- ference with our personal liberties, guaranteed and proclaimed by the consti- tuition of the Unit d States of America; as a demand from the part of the Sev- enth Day Adventists not to permit the showing of moving pictures on Saturdays, their religious day of rest.
 If so much bad influence Is claimed from the seeing of moving pictures, why sn't their entire abolishment demanded?
