DISASTROUS FIRE At

pany Destroyed

High
MACHINERY is RUINED

The foundry of the Birmingham Ma
chine and Foundry company, located at
Tenth avenue and Thirty street
north, was seriously damaged by fire,
which originated in the core ovens at
1 o'clock this morning. The fire for a
time threatened the other buildings of
the plant, and was not checked until
seven fire companies combined efforts to
extinguish it.
The fire was discovered by Night
Waterman G. B. Jones, who experienced
some difficulty in notifying the fire de-
partment. Norwood station, No. 8. was
first to reach the scene. When the three
stations originally answering the call
ing blaze, help call was sent in and
the flying squadron answered.
But slight estimate could be obtained
as to the damage caused by the fire
Vice President George Morrow was on the
scene during the fire. II cannot estimate
the extent of the damage said Mr..
Morrow. "All of the machinery in the
foundry is practically ruined, and the
loss will be exceedingly high.
"A large number of patterns were also
in the building which was Quilted by the
fire, and L cannot make an intelligent
estimate of the loss at the present time.
We will have to check over the buildings
before We can make any definite an
nouncement.
MY rough opinion of the loss will be
around the $4,000 mark. This, however,
may go higher or fall considerably
The building in which the foundry is
located is a large structure, built entirely
of wood. The fire originated in the lower
end of the foundry and spread rapidly.
The walls of the building were practically
saved by the firemen, but the roof was
completely ruined. All machinery is also
ruined.
No work was going on in the foundry
at the time of the fire. A full force,
however, was in operation in the ma
chine shop, located at the west end Of
the plant.
Waterman Jones stated that he dis
covered the fire when he made his 1918
round. Il went to the telephone" he
said but could get no answer I then
turned the alarm in over the Western
Union. 1t was fully 30 minutes before a
fire department reached here
DR.. R. w. Boland, president of the
company, is out of the city at the present
time J. w. Adams superintendent, was
on the scene shortly after the fire was
reported.
In answering the alarm, truck No.
ran into ditch at Tenth avenue and
Thirty-arst street The truck was seri-
ously damaged. Fireman VIII McShan
suffered a badly crushed foot. He was
carried to Hilman hospital in Johns am
bulance. Fireman John Watkins OF the
Norwood station was painfully injured
by falling glass inside the foundry. He.

That little patch of eruption may be
nothing more than slight annoyance
now. But, If neglected, such things have
an uncomfortable way of spreading and

SO don't take chances. Nip it in the
bud with few simple treatments with

irritation is entirely cleared away Doc

OTHER WORLD A REALITY

IT had rather be an elephant, enjoying
all the freedom of elephantdom and de-
vouring fodder-staek for breakfast, than
to be q man obsessed with the religious
IDEAS and ideals, and knowing that they
amounted to naught. I had rather be a
tiger in the canebrake, surrounded with
all the glory of tigerdom, or had
OF the meadow, eating. sleeping and talk
ing in the luxuries of cowdom, than to
be a man knowing that all the Christian
and religious ideals of my mind amounted
to naught,'' said DR.. Lee by way OF
comparison. This, together with other
comparisons and illustrations Dr. Lee
made clear the impressions that living
in another world would be reality, and
not an imaginative idea.
The School of Methods, according to Dr.
James M. Shelburne, dean, is making
fine progress, while larger crowds are
being attracted for each lecture. IT.
creased matriculation figures show that
the School of Methods is becoming more
popular each year among the denomina-
lions of the Birmingham district, as the
value of trained teachers in the Sunday
schools is becoming noticeable.
The opening address for today will be
made by Tornwell Haynes president of
birmingham college, who will use as his
subject, Living the Lesson Mr..
Haynes is q forceful speaker. and his
lecture for the opening hour is being
locked forward to with much anticipa-
ton. DR.. Lincoln Hulley will be heard

Announcing the winners and the schools
receiving special notice, followed a strong
lecture by DR.. James w. Lee in the audi
forum last night
Taking as a subject 1.-THE Secret OF
Living in Two Worlds DR.. Lee made
a characteristic address before a we'll
filled house. This probably was the
strongest of the series of addresses made
by DR.. Lee up to date. Using the theory
of religious IDEAS, DR.. Lees address
proved inspiring. In addition to being
lecturer of considerable fame Dr. Lee
proved himself deep thinker along the
lines of humane nature and physical
science. His address was we'll illustrated,
bringing out the idea from time to time
that there really existed another world,
to which the pure in mind aspired to
