ROGERS TO OPPOSE
 BARBER AND WARD

Arlie Barber has already practically an- nounced for the presidency of the board. It is almost certain that George Ward will be a candidate to succeed himself. And Cleon B. Rogers, eouney treasurer for the past four years, it is whispered, will announce for the same position shortly. Rogers has been county treas urer for the past four years and knows local politics as well as local conditions. A banker, self-made and successful, he will mix in with a large and active fol- lowing.
 It is said that Barber practically an- nounced and started his campaign last spring.
 The story goes tht he invited few of his former followers for conference this conference he explained that he de- sired to initiate a movement for leglsla- tive relief for Birmingham, and, by the way, that it had been suggested to him lief he should eliminate George Ward by defeating him for the presidency of the commission. Barber admitted it is said, that the suggestion appealed to him nightly, especially the salary attached to the job; that the further honor and emol- uments of the office of a plain, garden variety commissioner no longer aroused unrestrained enthusiasm in his patriotic bosom

Sermonettes and Prayers
 By Dr. Edmonds Published

If you've been one of the Clippers" and ''pasters" of the beautiful sentence prayers in The Age-Herald each day for the past two years and the sermon cites" on Sundays by Dr. Henry M. Ed monds, the beloved pastor of the Indepen- dent Presbyterian church, you'll be de- lighted to know that wonderfully beau tiful little volume of these classics has been compiled by Mrs. Sydney J. Bowie's s band of the Independent church and will be placed on sale next Monday at Love- man, Joseph & Loeb's.
 The dainty volume is handsomely done in dark green suede, lettered in gold, and bearing the simple inscription, Ser monettes and Prayers" by Henry M. Ed monds.
 It was a happy thought on the part of Mrs Bowie and her co-workers to compile a volume of pr. Edmonds' Ser monettes and Prayers" hundreds of peo- pie have been benefited by the beautiful thoughts contained in the terse, simple lines in The Age-Herald from his pen each morning; hundreds have clipped" a word here and word there from the pen of this sympathetic Christian min ister, whose heart belongs to all hu- manity, and little does he realize that To hundreds that morning prayer IS the first thing that they turn to when they pick up the paper, looking for a word to guide them on the weary way of life, and thought to cheer them when the grim old world is about to get the best of them.
 Mrs. Bowie, in speaking the publica- tion of ''Sermonettes and Prayers" said enthusiastically yesterday:
 While it was impossible to include all the beautiful prayers written by Dr. Ed monds, we feel that the collection is very choice and will be greatly appreciated. The vast expense of getting the book together and presenting it in attractive form, with the high price of paper and labor and everything connected with printing, is only known to those who have handled the matter. MT. Patterson of the Dispatch Printing company, who is member of the Independent Presby- terian church, has been most kind and generous in every way and but for him and his help, it would have been impos- sible to have gotten up such beautiful volume"

OTHER FOUR PLACES
 WILL ALSO BE LIVELY

While the race for president of the board will command the spotlight in the center of the stage, the contest for the other four places on the board, it is indi- cated, will be spectacular.
 Hornady will be a candidate. As head of the educational health and sanitation departments of the city government, he has been a very busy commissioner since he became a member of the city S governing body. His friends point to his successful handling of the typhoid cpl demic last summer and his intense zeal in the reha abilitating and upbuilding of the city's educational system as strong card in his coming campaign.
 Commissioner Truss will also be a can didate to succeed himself.
 Many prominent and successful citizens are being mentioned as probable or pos sible candidates. R. A, Brown. pres ident of the Alabama State Fair asso- citation for many years, and active in all public affairs, may be induced to run. The eastern portion of the city, it is predicted. will get behind either pr. Bar rett of East Lake or Dr. Bell of Wood lawn, both physicians and successful business men and both with large fol lowings.
 M. H. McDowell, who made a close race last year, and James Dupuy are bott being mentioned from the Ensley sec ton. George Carns, prominent merchant of North Birmingham, is considering getting in.

The war department in Washington will have nothing to do with the re- moval of the units from the Mexican border.
 The department commander, who is on the ground, is endowed with the power to decide what units will be returned from the service into civil life and the fate of the Alabama guardsmen will rest with him. All in- tluence that might be brought to bear at Washington will be useless The Alabama batteries are resigned to their fate.

BIRMINGHAM WILL NOT JOIN BOYCOTT Many Cities Now Refusing
 to Eat Eggs PRICES ARE TOO HIGH Rushton Says Hens Indolence Is Re- sponsible for Prices and Not
 Cold Storage as
 Charged
PRICES ARE TOO HIGH

Birmingham housewives will not join in the food boycott which is extending over New York and other sections ot the country, according to Mrs. R. Du- Pont Thompson, president of the woman's civic board. Not that the wom- en have not the courage of their conVic- tions nor that they fail to resent the high prices they are being compelled to pay for food products, but because they lack organization.
 'If we had a house wives league in Birmingham, feel sure that the league would indorse the boycott" said Mrs. Thompson. However, it is such stu pendous question that nothing can be done without organization. We have in Birmingham no organization of this kind. The only thing in any way ap- preaching it is the home economies de- partment of the woman's civic board, and this would be too large ques- tion for them to handle. even were they completely organized, which they are
