NEW LOAN COMPANY
 OPEN FOR BUSINESS
Shelby States Concern Has No Out. side Connections and is
 Local Institution

The doors of the Citizens Loan and Savings company were opened yester- day morning for business and the re- suit of the first days operations were highly satisfactory. The purpose of the company is to loan money at the legal rate of interest to salaried people on plan of easy payments, ana while not charitable institution, 1t is designed to help the salaried man to help him. self without recourse to the loan shark and other credit evils.
 The new concern is financed owned and controlled entirely by local business men and has no connection with any other institution. In this regard John E. Shelly, vice president and treasurer said: "There seems to be an impression that our company is operating on a plan known as the Morris system. This is not the case by any means. Our plan of operation was devised in Birming- ham, our directorate is composed of Birmingham men, our capital is all local and we have no connection, direct or indirect, with any other institution of like character.
 We were much gratifiec at the suc- cess of our opening and the future of our new enterprise seems extremely bright"

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Lyric

Ray Samuels, a talented mimic, and a tabloid musical comedy, 'On the School Playgrounds,' save the opening bill at the Lyric this week from me- diocrity Miss Samuels sings ragtime songs in a manner that leaves little to be desired by those who enjoy the sym copated airs of the day, while her char acterizations of a Jew, an Italian and a rural type were extremely we'll done. She received much applause and deserved it. Her dialect is good, and she also has a breezy personality, which makes Ter an acceptable entertainer
 Ell Brandel and Muriel Morgan take the principal parts in the school day frclic. MT. Brandel as a Swedish janitor evoked great deal of laughter.-.He is ar eccentric comedian above the ordinary and master of grotesque dancing. Miss Morgan sang one song well and could have been heard with pleasure in an- otlier ballad. Six girls of the pony type did most of the romping and pro- vided the necessary playground atmos- rhere
 Charles Sweet offers an entertaining speciality introducing jokes and comedy md initiating various instruments on the piano. Mir Sweet appears as stage hand, and his speciality would have less awkward ending if he would make his bow and leave the work of clearing the stage to the real stage hands. Byron & Landon and Hanley & Mur- ray, the two teams on the bill, worked hard with indifferent results. One couple did conventional sketch with a piano, wf.ich was bright only in spots Some ] of the tests were exceedingly musty The other couple showed up better as a thoroughly sophisticated actress and .i simpering fool whose idiocy was not without some point

REGISTERED SCRIP
 IS CERTIFIED ID County Treasurer Passes Favorably on $30O,OOO
 Worth of Scrip

Registered scrip amounting approx imately to s300,000 was certified to the board of revenue yesterday by Cleon B. Rogers, county treasurer. MT. Rogers also addressed a letter to the several owners of the scrip notifying them of his action. The board of rev. enue will issue one, two, three, four and five-year per cent warrants inn mediately for the redemption of the scrip the same having been drawn up and prepared by the county attorney, w. K Terry. The warrants will be redeemed on the basis of $60,0O0 a year.
 The matter of redeeming the regis tered scrip was acted upon by the board of revenue sometime ago and
 the county treasurer was asked to pass on the correctness and legality
 of claims On account of the immense amount of work involved passing on these claims, of which there were over 125, ,00O pieces, each having a number of separate items, an examiner of pub lie accounts was asked for, but owing to other matters did not get here, and Mr. Rogers and his assistant went to work on the proposition and on yes terday completed their long task. The warrants will be issued immediately.
