The durability of cloth depends
largely upon the length OF the indi-

'. M. [. 4. HAS HAD
 EXCELLENT YEAR
Cosby Again President. Annual Meeting Shows
 Encouraging Results

w. M. Cosby was unanimously re-elect- ed president of the Birmingham Young Mems Christian association at the annual meeting of the board of directors Tues day afternoon, R. S. Munger was chosen vice president, Fulton B. Clark, record ing secretary and R. w. Ewing, treas urer. Plans were outlined for the con- tinued enlargement of the work of the as sociation and for a gradual increase of the membership with a view of serving and developing thousands of young men for the highest type of citizenship.
 The reports of the past year were most gratifyingfi showing that while the local association was leading the south in the work it is producing, it was accomplish ing these results at much less expense than any association of similar size, in dicating the efficiency of the organization here. The report of the treasurer showed that all bills had been paid during the year. and that a small balance was left on hand.
 The educati department had accom- plished much during the year in the mat ter of giving instruction to men and boys and the night school is training many working boys for useful business careers and mechanical pursuits. large in- crease was noted in the physical depart ment, both in the classes of the men and boys. The religious work of the associa- tion has led the south for several years and the record of the past 12 months will keep this association well in the lead Splendid work was reported at the in dustrial branch at Acipco and the street railway branch of the Birmingham Rail- way, Light and Power company.

The tendency in big time vaudeville is in making the heavy acts heavier with a
 greater personnel of performers than for
 merly, and many of the successful musi- cal comedies and dramas are being cut down to single act so as to fiji them for this sort of entertainment. Take, for in- stance, Louis Mann, who is remembered here for the striking play, "The Man Who Stood Still" After that, before pro- duicng "The Bubble" he went into vau-
 deville in the play, "Eevating Hus-
 band.' He had short season with this over the eastern circuits and is now said to be flirting with another vaudeville en- gagement.
 More recently there have been some of the noted operatic stars going itno vaude- ville David Bispham has found it not too wearing to sing an afternoon and even ing concert and the managers have found
 his name added to a bill meant much at the box office which, after all, is the
 barometer of the whims ana rancIes or the public
 And it is box office receipts as much as the framing and routing of a vaudeville in which booking manager is concerned The keen foresight of Miss Bloom has made it clear to MT. Hoblitzelle that she has struck the stride which fits her best, and her worth can scarcely be valued. There have been other booking man. agers-men, always men-until three years ago there was a change, and Miss Bloom stepped into this big job, and being nat urally gifted with genuine business sagacity, she mastered the great mass of detail which has since proven so valuable to her.
 Now she is big figure in the operation of this amusement enterprise for, as MT. Holitzelle says, since Miss Bloom took hold a greater part of his office worries have ceased
 And this self-made woman who has not the slightest ambition to be seen in the vaudeville spotlight, just goes along plac- ing those acts which she believes will best gratfy the tastes of theatregoers. It is law with her that all offerings must be clean and wholesome and not offend any one by broad humor or suggestions. In passing it is not amss to say book ings Agents generally arc not popular with performers. Miss Bloom seems ro have bridgtd the gap between the two.

It was a com bination of Shakespearen songs, dances and familiar characters all woven into festal performance at the court of Duke Theseus. The opening was a tableau scene at the court of Theseus and Hippolyta, where, surrounded by court of Greek maidens, they sat in state and summoned Philostrate, who presented a scroll of the evenings en- tertainment. Then followed the events of the medley, varying widely, but all attractive. The costumes added won-

ANNISTON

Anniston, May 24-(Sp Special)-Annis- tons part in the European war was made apparent today when sample of the shells being sent to the allies from the plant of the Anniston Ord nance company was exhibited at the First National bank.
 A great deal of curiosity has existed in regard to the shells and when it was learned that one of them had been placed in the bank, there was a rush to see it.
 The shell is made of steel, specially made and extra hard. It weighs, un- loaded 114 pounds, is IS inches high and six inches in diameter At first some difficulty was experienced in get ting the machinery adjusted to make the shells conform exactly to the spec ifications, but now that the initial diff ficulty has been overconN the shells are being turned out rapidly and are being regularly accepted by the in- spectors.
 Rev. Charles N. Weller, rector of St. Michael's and All Angels church, of this city, resigned the rectorship of the par
