Manufacturers Exhibit

The recently organized Birming- ham Manufacturers Permanent Ex- hibit association is meeting with much encouragement. Already many manu- facturers have asked for space and it is believed that by the time the asso- citation begins systematic canvass every concern in the Birmingham dis trict will be eager to respond.
 The association is now engaged in the work of making a compilation of all the manufacturing plants in and around the city. The list will be con- pleted shortly and the showing will be a revelation to those citizens who have not kept in touch with the steady increase in our diversified industries. Up to yesterday 250 manufacturing concerns had been catalogued. There are many more.
 As The Age Herald said few days ago this project to be worth while should include an exhibit from every industry. Not one should be missing. Such permanent exhibit as that pro- posed would make great impression upon visitors. Not only that but it would be of incalculable benefit in stimulating local pride and broadening the field of industrial activity.

Addy & Co.'S Cincinnati report starts off: Increase in furnace order books has completely changed the situation, and the change is decidedly for the better. Some furnaces have sold in the past three weeks their entire output for the next three months. One furnace that is con- veniently situated near tidewater has sold it's output for a year. for export. Shipments, too, are steadily growing in volume.
 Prices are both higher and firmer and 1t looks as if the long expected turn in the tide were here at last. An immense amount of lost ground has to be made up before the iron trade will reach what might be called it's normal position. Up to two months ago we had been steadily retreating before the allied forces of low prices and small demand, but now both of these enemies to good business have been defeated. Small demand in particu- lar is in nasty retreat. Low price is more determined foe. Yet. in the south there has been an advance of 50 cents. which Is being strongly held, and the re- markedly low prices in the north are no longer obtainable.'

Good Old Uncle Sam

"Tell your troubles to a policeman is no longer current phrase in slang vernacular. "Tell your troubles to Uncle Sam" has superseded the old expression, and in the latter phrase there is more sense than nonsense.
 For every year marks more con- plete system of cooperation on the part of the federal government with the individual citizen, until Uncle Sam has become silent partner in almost every home, be it great or small.
 The development of the parcel post system has been rapid, and it's possi- hilities are only just beginning to be fully understood. There is no doubt it has met a general need, and the ex- tent to which the parcel post system will be utilized seems to be limited only to human ingenuity.
 For example, press reports carry the story of Enda Neff, a 6-year-olt girl who has been sent from Pensacola to Christiansburg, Va., by parcel post The little girl wore placard on which was inscribed her name and destina tion and upon which was stuck thu necessary postage stamps. The chil,

reached the conclusion that the in- dustrial school for the blind should be situated either in Montgomery or Birmingham, preferably the latter city. A larger number of blind men are resident in Jefferson county than in any other county of the state, and many would be the manifest advant- ages if the school were located here.
 There should be no question about a free site in or near Birmingham. The school must have several acres of ground and if acreage property as gift is not available inside of the city limits either Fairfield or Tarrant City would doubtless be glad to pro- vide free site for so desirable an in- stitution as an industrial school for blind men.
