BROWN OF STATE


tinued, land had the opportun-
ity of : seeing many new and
attractive exhibits which we have Sc
cured for the fair here, among the num-
Der being some very fine herds of cat
tie. The free acts at the fair this year,
known as the Royal Hippodrome attrac-
lions of Mr.. Caruthers, consists of II
splendid numbers, making a larger num-
Der of free acts than ever before. We
have invested more money in the free
acts than formerly and on account of tine
war We have been able to secure talent
from the great hippodromes or the world;
many of the acts have played in the great
capitals of Europe, Berlin-London and
Paris and the fact that they are in this
country on account of the war gives the
public the chance to see hippodrome acts
they may never see again. Mr. Caruthers
says the free acts will be the most evenly
balanced and the most finished that he
has ever put on before
AS for the music, which is always &

said, we have secured Memoirs band;

of presenting nothing but the best to

The eternal conflict between finance and
romance is the theme of this brilliant
novel of metropolitan life and like all
Mr.. Hughes stories it is told in a

could it be otherwise, when it is story
of beautiful spirited modern girl who,
having discovered how often the check

up her mind to give up love or to make
money herself.
The pretty, spoiled daughter of in

anything she wanted out of her hard
working, much harassed father, task
in which she was aided and abetted by
her mother, whoshe own methods, how
ever, We're not exactly of the persuasive
kind. Mrs. Kip had wrangled with her
husband over money matters for some 30
years, and Daphne, who was heartily SICK
of the perpetual nagging and squabbling
about expenses, looked forward with
great joy to the day when she would ''be
free from this everlasting talk of money,

$, Is more than apt to reach success now
ever great the obstacles may be.
MIR. Robert A. Brown is one of Biz
mingham's splendid, loyal, philosophical
citizens; there is nothing Selfish about
him; he gives his time, his money and
his energy to the best interests of Biz
mingham, often at a sacrifice to his own
private interests, and in everything that
he has ever undertaken he has had sue
cess with a big 50 marked to his
credit
During the recent Confederate reunion,
Mr. Brown did valiant work in the fl
nancial campaign and without him, it
would have been difficult to carry out
the plans made for that big event.
Since his presidency of the Alabama
State Fair association nothing has been
left undone to promote and perfect the
plans of this organization. Mr.. Brown
has visited the big fairs in other cities:
he has read and accumulated data for
improving the conditions; he has been in
touch with prominent fair operators of
the south and in declaring that the 1916
fair which will open it's gates to the pub
lie on next Thursday, will be the most
complete and creditable exhibit that has
even been seen in Birmingham at the
fairgrounds. Mr.. Brown speaks advis-
edly.
We are better prepared this year."
Mr.. Brown said, in speaking of the fair
few days ago, than ever before; prep
arations were begun earlier, in fact, be-
fore the fair of 1915 closed, and every
thing will be in readiness on the OPEN

mind, of the safety first slogan which
is insisted upon by the management
of the Fair association. This guarantees
