Although the crowds in attendance al Lake park last night were not as large as usual, those who were present evinced the greatest interest in the exhibits ot the various makes of automobiles, and ad- hiring groups were about every car.
 The automobile show from the start has been an unqualified success, and each night those who have exhibits become more enthusiastic over the advertisine value of the show from the dealers stand point Each of the exhibiting dealers have salesmen on hand. and illustrated folders give complete information about the cars on exhibit.
 The parking arrangements of the cars are excellent and hundreds of ladies who have attended the show remark the gen. eral cleanliness of the park. The ground is covered with thick layer of chipped limestone, which is sprinkled each ngh' to lay the dust, and every machine is spotless in it's allotted space.
 The Packard Twin-Sx last night was an object of much attention, it's beauti- ful lines being the chief topic of conver- sation for large group about it. The little Mobilette also attracted considera be attention, and A. J. Ozanne, agent here was busy distributing cards containing the specifications.

An Independent Traffic Bureau For the City Is the
 Recommendation Of Conn1itte.
Traffic Bureau Works Advantage of Both Railroads Shippers is Statement of Special Committee
 of Business Council

The formation of an independent traffic bureau for the city of Birmingham at the earliest possible time was the recommen- dation made to the business council of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday aft ernoon by the special committee. The report was signed by all the members of the committee of which M. P. Northing- ton is chairman. W. Thornton Estes, Harry w. Coffin, Samuel l.. Earle and R. l. Ingalls, were the other signers oi the report.
 The report of the committee was made after a number of weeks of careful in- vestigation and after the workings o1 traffic bureaus in many cities had beer looked into. It was reported that ir other cities the bureaus worked in har- mony with the railroads and that they were able to get better results for the shippers than when the action was taker independently. Investigation showed that the traffic bureau worked to the ad- vantage of both the railroads and ship pers.
 The recommendations of the committee provide that the bureau be under the ac- tive management of competent mana. ger, to be assisted by rate clerk and stenographer, the force to be increased as the business demands and the results justify. It was recommended further that the bureau be supported by the Chamber of Commerce, the city of Bir. mingham, Jefferson county and the ship pers of the district. Provisions were made for board of seven directors, one to be the president of the Chamber of commerce. one to be named by the city commissioners, one by the board of rev enue and the four others by the shippers
 It will be recalled that the directors of the Chamber of Commerce took up this question some time ago. and the concen- sus of opinion favored the establishment representative nature of the business council, the matter was referred to that organization for investigation, and the report of the special committee of the council was submitted to President Moore at the meeting yesterday afternoon.
 In submitting the report, Chairman Northington wrote President Moore as fol. lows:
 J. D. Moore, Chairman Business Council,
 Chamber of Commerce, Birmingham:
 Dear Sir-In filing the inclosed report your committee desires to call your at tenton to the fact that much time has other cities.

ADJUSTMENTS
"The Birth off a Nation''

Splendid horsemanship in the secont half of ''The Birth of Nation" depict ing the rise and activities of the Ku Klus Klan, provide many thrills in the Griffitl historical spectacle which returns to tts Jefferson theatre next week as a reunion week offering. The life and death dashes of the whiterobed knights keep the au dience tilted on the edges of their seats until the triumphant strains of Dixie proclaim that the blacks and carpetbag gers have been finally routed.
 There would be more horses than the present 5000 shown in ''The Birth of 9 Nation if the European war had not broken out when this part of the biz production was being completed. Griffith had to beg, borrow and buy the horses for his big scenes and they were corralleC from all parts of the country. He found agents of the English, French, Italian and Russian governments competing with him for these horses, which he was forced tc buy at war prices in order to complete his picture.

The formal opening of the Birming

 ham women visited the plant during the afternoon and were charmed with
 thing. Mrs J. B. Reid, as hostess, in- vited all the visitors to register and conducted them all to the punch bowl, carved from solid ice. and filled with | thoroughly delightful fruit punch. Heavy overcoats were provided for all visitors before they stal ted on the tour, for many of the storage rooms
 have a temperature of 16 degrees above | zero, and are extremely uncomfortable | when one is dressed in summer wear The fur room of the plant attract ed more comment, perhaps. than did any portion of it. many of the ladies | examining the furs contained there
 in to see if any damage had result 1 ed They found that the furs. instead 1 of being damaged, were actually ac- l quiring a gloss not unlike that of the I live animal from which they were taken. The conductor of the tour ex- l plained that the keeping of furs in an atmosphere as nearly as possible like that from which they came had a ten dency to keep them in much better condition than otherwise.
 The fruit storage rooms were ob-
 lects of much attention, and the deli
 cious odors of thousands of apples
 packed in boxes and barrels acted as an appetizer not to be denied The la
 dies all received an ice cold apple and
