SPECIAL sermon
KNOX CHURCH ON
SUNDAY EVENING

An interesting service is promised
at the Knox Presbyterian church to-
morrow evening. Special music will
be furnished by the high school or
chestra- The pastor will preach a
strong sermon on the relation be-
tween morality and religion. Despite
some current notions, this will not be
a mawkish, sensational, yellow-jour-
nal explosion. 1t will be a calm,
straightforward talk on a very vital
subject, and promises to be of in
terest to all who may attend. The
pastor assures US that nothing viii
be said that will CRATE on the deli
cate feelings of any mother or
daughter who may attend. Plain
facts plainly spoken. but decentiy
handled, is the way he put it.
The services will be held on the
lawn in front of the church, and
ample accommodations have been
provided to accommodate all who care
to attend this service. A large at
tendance is expected at this service,
both to hear the good music prom
ised and the sermon on such a vital
topic.
Mr.. Phillips the pastor of this
church is now spending his last
month in Pensacola. He will leave
the last of this month, or possibly
within two weeks, for Richmond, Vir-
ginia, to take his last year of work
in the Seminary there preparatory to
taking his full orders While he has
but few opportunities to appear
again before Pensacola audiences, he
intends to make good use of those
remaining.
There will be no service at the
First Presbyterian church Sunday
morning and evening, so the members
and friends of that church are ex-
tended a cordial invitation to worship
at their sister church. And the gen
eral public will also find hearty well
come at all these services.
The first part of each service, both
morning and evening is devoted to
story telling and instruction of the
boys and girls, so the children are
desirable and wanted as we'll as the
grown folks. Something of interest
is promised to all.

HAS BILL AGAINST
GERMAN EMPEROR

Base American Flotillas in British
Waters, Aug. 3.-There is at least
one person in this port who is pray
ing for the end of the war. He is a
poor fisherman who has bill to pre-
sent to the German emperor for a
basketfull of fish and eggs for which
he says a German submarine crew
forgot to pay.
One peaceful afternoon in the early
days of the war while alone IN his
boat within rifle shot of the harbor
a submarine emerged alongside. Be
fore the man had time to fall over
board from fright an officer stuck
his head out of the coming tower and
in perfect English asked if he could
have some fish.
Sure" said the excited fisherman,
as he turned over a basketfull.
Can you get US some eggs asked
the German.
"Sure," said the man who promptly
pulled for shore, disappeared into his
hut for an instant and reappeared
with several dozen eggs which he
brought out to the hungry submarine
crew now lined up on the deck of the
waiting submersible.
Then instead of proferring pay
ment, the crew said thanks in Their
native tongue, laughingly announced
they were Germans and made off.
Il thought they were English un-
til then" said the fisherman, whose
story is the pet yarn of this place.

of knitted garments and surgical dress ings have been sent to the Navy league by this unit. and large box of these articles was also sent to Miss Emily Carow Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt's sister, cousin of Miss Tylers who has charge of military hospital in France. Miss Carow's letter of thanks to the unit
 which was published, caused statewide interest. Miss Carow spoke of seeing Roosevelt's son and also Mrs. Kermit Roosevelt. who has gone to France to work with the Young Mems Christian as sociation. The unit is now spending it's time knitting with all It's might and main" to help fill Anniston's appor- tionment of Red Cross knitted articles.
 The Red Cross hospital relief commit tee, of which Miss Tyler is chairman for the county. was organized only few weeks ago to meet the needs of the sick soldiers. was amazed when I attended
 the meeting of the committee on Wednes- day to see how much had already been accomplished and also at the huge scope of work contemplated for the future.
 Each chairman has adopted two out or p wards at the base hospital, and Will

 Rev. c. N. Barnwell, the rector of Grace church. who has assumed the position of field director of Red Cross activities, att tended the meeting Wednesday. Among other things he said: T would like, in addition to the rest room for the con- valescents to sec recreation room, with comfortable chairs and reading lamps provided for the doctorSf who are most of the time on duty 2i hours, and whose only method of relaxation in the evening is to sit on the s'd& of their cots

 The need for recreation room for the convalescsnts is to be filled at once. Dur ing my round of visits at the base hos pital last week the cry that resounded throughout every ward was, 'Oh, the monotony."
 To relieve in part this monotony the women of Anniston have decided to act as hostesses every Tuesday to as many convalescents as possible. Oh, how wish everybody could have seen the Joy of the II soldiers who, after being confined in dreary hospital wards for weeks. were brought in town Tuesday afternoon to Mrs. John E.

Birmingham Women Asked 10 Aid in
 Work at Camp Nc ClelLan Base Hospital
Fly PATRIOTIC PATRICIA

Annston, November 10.--(Special) )--Thls week come with an appeal to the wom- en of Birmingham. The appeal comes from the Calhoun county hospital relief committee. They ask that the women of the 1agic City contribute piano and a photograph for the convalescent's rest room at the Camp Mcclellan base hos pital. If you can't send both. send a photograph. They want it this week.
 The patriotic women of Birmingham have many times sgnified their willing ness to help and the request has often come to the various organizations here:
 Give us something definite to do.' Hence this definite appeal from the hos |pital relief committee
 It is we'll worth a trip to Anniston to see the big hospital recently com pleted Those lonely, sick soldiers would stir your very soul and make you will- ing to make and sacrifice to bring com fort and cheer to these boys who are volunteering their lives in service for us. Anniston women are doing all they can, but they realize the needs are vast. They also consider 1t sweet privilege to have a part in this beautiful service' and hope that this entire section or Ala bama will share with them the wonder full opportunities offered every woman living near military training camp.
 It is most fitting that Miss Emily Tyler should have been chosen as Cal houn county's leader in this movement. The Tyler family have been leaders since the very birth of Anniston. It was MT. A. L. Tyler's wealth, used with his in fluence, and the executive ability of MT. Sam Noble, that made Anniston pos sible.
 The Tyler home was the first nice home erected in Anniston. The lawn embraces six blocks in the choicest residence DOT ton of the town. Anniston was named for Miss Tyler's mother. Mrs. Annie Tyler. It was originally called "Annie's Town" and later shortened to Anniston' Tyler Hill, an exclusive residence sec ton. was also named to honor this prom inent family. All of the beautiful trees which make Leighton avenue famous were planted by MT. Tyler, making won- derful living monument to the creator or .Annie's Town who. with his faithful helpmeet. is now resting with the Great Creator.
