NEW YORK STORIES
 BY A BIRMINGHAM MAN
By ALLEN GRIFFIN JOHNSON

Well, that was putting it rather frankly, don't you think? And it is just exactly what practically every one says who is displeased ysth this busy little hamlet. They are not quite "the whole show, and they can't get over it. So they go away again ,and salve them selves by telling tales in which they seem to have been the whole show, just the same.
 However, Mrs Retan may have the wrong idea about the whole front page in small town paper being better ad- vertising than a "buried'' and briefer ac- count in a New York daily The chances are the New York paper will place the federation's important deliberations be- fore more people than ever heard of the front page of the small town daily
 However, be that as it way, the ladies do not like us any more because we fail to pay them sufficient attention, conven- tion-ally speaking, of course. It is en- tirely true that the great federation Tn session here did not create much of stir along Broadway. The city housed thousands of women who were not here egularly-thousands of visitors from all parts of the country, but nobody would ever have noticed it.
 And that makes me wonder-does woman prefer having people think she IS of greater importance than she really is, to realizing that she really is of greater importance than most people think she Is?

New York, June u.-(Special.)-P poor, little, old New York. It is going to lose out as a convention city for women because it is too big! And, likewise, be- cause of the fact that the women all most openly admit that they have a mild form of lego mania.' It all came out when the General Federation of Women S clubs had been in session about one day here.
 No more conventions in Manhattan,' declared the women members and off cers. And then the chairman of the in- vitation committee, who is Mrs. Albert Retan of Arkansas put it this way:
 We don't want our important delibera- tions buried in the sensational big pa- pers. In small town we could have the front page all to ourselves during the whole convention.
 Besides, we don't want half our dele gates at the theatres and off on shopping trips when important questions are to be decided
 Then, too, the reception committee can put us on the right train, but it cant t stay with us to tell us where to change off They understand the vagaries so well that it doesn't occur to them that we will be bewildered.

upon which the eye can rest. In mat ters of government it represents the in- terests and sympathies; and recognizes no distinction whatever between it's na- tive and foreign born citizens. They are all under one flag and owe allegiance to the same government. It means that the Bible is the Magma Charta of all human rights as from its brilliant and liberty loving pages there have come the principles of the freedom of which it speaks. It represents all the great truths for which the world in these centuries has been battling; for which men have been branded, bapished, imprisoned, quar- tered and died; for which our fathers fought and fell, and for which more than a century ago they assembled at Philadelphia and pledged to one another their lives, fortunes and sacred honor. It represents the eternal and divine right of liberty in man. the union, the consti- tuition and all which those sacred terms so eloquently proclaim.
 LIBERTY THROUGH LOVE
 Tt has a tongue and tells a story. It's alternate rows of white mean pur- ity, so do its bands of red and azure blue mean liberty-not lawlessness or license but liberty virtuous and ganized liberty Liberty through the law and law out of liberty.
 Right here lies the personal appeal to you and to me. For as the units make the mass. and the individuals make the multitude. so here we have a call to character as safeguard of the republic. and an appeal to you and to me to live rightly. that so far as in us lies, America may be kept in it's true orbit, even in the orbit decreed for it by the Almighty God. and not be allowed to depart therefrom and so become as a lost star wandering away into blackness. We want to inn press upon the world that our free dom is not abused; that we have used it wisely, and have become politically more prosperous and morally better than other governments. Let us never be satisfied till we shine the acknowl edged Jupiter in the consultations of nations"

MORE ALUMINIUM USED
IN MANUFACTU AUTOS

Metallic aluminium now completes
strongly with other sheet metals
and with wood in the manufacture
of automobile bodies, according to
reports by the United States Geolog-
ical survey, department of the inter-
Tor.
This position in the market has
been attained through improvement
in boundary methods for casting me-
tallic aluminium and increase in
knowledge of suitable alloys.
Large sections of aluminium cast
ings are now used in making tour
ing cars and the inclosed bodies of
certain other motor cars, use which
was not practicable ten years ago.
Cast aluminium is also used for
making automobile dashes. Bodies
made of it are higher than those
made of other sheet metal and have
a rigid surface that will not dent
easily when handled.
They are also safer in case of an
accident The aluminium surface re-
tains paint we'll, and the increased
rgidity makes the car more durable
