st. Mary,s Members in Service

"We are naturally very proud of the part our church is taking in the war" said the Rev. w. N. Claybrook, rector of St. Mary S. ont the Highlands.
 'At the present time we have 52 mem bers of St. Marys who are actually in the service Many of these men hold comniis- sions. There are several majors. num- Der of captains and quite a lot of lieu tenants.
 Tt is also gratifying to know that such active steps are being taken by the church to look after these men while in the service A special commission has been named for the purpose with head- quarters in New York. To this commis- sion we forwarded cards for indexng which contain all necessary information about the boys. Representatives of the church will be stationed wherever there are any of our soldiers and it will be the special duty of these men to look after the welfare and happiness of the boys

CUSTARD PIE STUFF

it be denied? The trouble with nice people is their belief that if one doesn't like what they like he is q toad. They are the ones who are all ways depIoring pretty girls on maga- zine covers, and boosting Botticelli. We aim to please everybody, but it can't be done at one and the same time. "The only film I ever saw that offended nobody" said the boss, twas | a picture of the mint, showing how money is made"
 The heaviest crosses we have to carry are the bromidic critiques per- petua1ly supplied by our pleasure low ing countrymen who believe we are all wrong and would make much bet ter comedies if we did or didn't do cer- tain things. If we had perfect un- derstanding of the sense of humor maybe we would not write our ribal- dries in custard; we only know what our brothers laugh at, and that knowf- edge is worth a pile in the box office.
 The boss and were soup and fish ing last week when charming young | ildlIOh plpCu up WltI tilehl uCdI Otu question: Do you think the throwing of custard pie is really funny. MT. Hammond?'
 Yes" he replied, just so long as it hits the innocent bystander and not the person it was aimed at"
 Then this from the secretary of the Drama league: And will you never give up that silly chase at the end, where people upset apple carts and things?"
 My dear lady" replied the poor badgered boss. "the upsetting of apple carts will be funny until the people cease to laugh at the misfortunes of others
 And then, as though the gods had ordered it. an awkward maid dropped . piece of cracked ice down the low corsaged back of the drama lady. And you may believe it or not, but all those perfectly nice people howled with laughter. I have queer feeling that there was collision between the maid and the boss. He is capable of jus! such delicious humor.

LIKE M,LuKE SAYS

You may have noticed that wien a man takes things as they come he hates to let go of them. The college pigskin' having been laid on the shelf, the students will now pay little attention to the college sheep skin.
 There are lot of surly. ungrateful folks in this world who tell you to mind yours when you go out your way to give them free advice about their busi- ness.
 One would imagine that time of war would find sane people of one mind. But every day or two some blatant pacifist nut gets up to remind us that the squirrels in this country are in no danger of starving. There are lot of men who kick be- cause they have to sit in the front row i in a theatre. But we refer to a movie i theatre, not musical comedy house. So many men have learned to shake hands as if they meant it that it is not always safe to judge mans sincerity I by his handshake
 The old fashioned man who expected his wife to look up to him now has a 1 son who expects his wife to put up for 1 him.
 The reason why so few men profit by experience is because it is necessary to sell it for more than you paid for it. 1 How long is sentence? A Luke Mo- Luke sentence might take up 10 words, while a Henry James sentence might take up 10 pages.
 When man says that he has new , visible typewriter in his office, his wife conjures up a vision of a knee-high skirt and a low-cut waist. l And many woman who marrses for money doesn't even get alimony.
 Isn't it strange what clever things " you can think of to say after the op- ! portunity for saying them has passed? i Women are replacing men In many {, lines of endeavor during the war and ! are wearing mems trousers. Well. the thin ones may have to wear suspenders
 the trousers from slipping. but
 writh the corn feds.

Birmingham's Loss

Birmingham lost fine citizen in the death of R. M. Goodall,'' said M. V. .To- seph. He was a community builder, the kind of man who in spite of a big and growing business was ever ready not only to give his money but his time to help along anything that would be for the public's interest. He was a man of strong convictions and always expressed them fearlessly, but he did 1t in way not to make enemies. He will be. greatly missed in the business and religious life of the city"

ALABAMA PRESS

:. fColumbiana Peoples Advocate: News comes from Montgomery that there is s2OO,C0O in the state treasury. But how long will this amount last?
 Enterprise Peoples Ledger: At the Ca- lera mill. located at Sylacauga. they are making flour from corn. It is said that from one bushel of corn there is obtained F pounds of flour, six pounds of grits and two pounds of bran. It might be well for some of our people to look into this.
 Talladega Home Birmingham in a coal famine suggests, Goal, coal every where and not a lump to burn"
 Clanton Press: Congressman Mann, the minority leader in the lower house of Congress, is one republican at all events who is not afraid to do right regardless of party lines. He deserves and will re- ceive the respect and admiration of all true patriots.
 Oneonta Southern Democrat: There are about 20 schools in Blount county wi.h- out teachers. Some of our teachers have gone to the war. some of them have taken up other occupations, and othcrs have gone to counties where the s-mill school tax is in effect.
 Gadsden Times-News: If Birmingham. which is located on a coal heap. is suffer- ing from lack of fuel the condition in has favored regions must be awful. The &uth is the nation is up against 2 short

their bonds by lending them money at the same rate.
 Any person who has bought one or more liberty bonds and finds himself unable to pay for them can get re- lief without resorting to "loan sharks" Any bank or reputable broker will tell him how and he will be given every opportunity to make his pay ments or to dispose of the bonds for what they are really worth.

Campaign Drive for
 Red Cross Members

1HHE American Red Cross society, U which now has membership of five million, will be augmented next week by ten million or more. Every state in the union has been or ganized for a vigorous campaign and it is believed that each state chairman will be able to raise his full allotment by Christmas eve. Alabama's allot- nent is two hundred thousand, of which Jefferson county's quota is thirty-five thousand.
 Robert Jemison, IT,, who has charge of the state canvass, is being assisted by ardent county chairmen, and when the great drive begins Monday the campaign machinery will be found in smooth working order.
 The Red Cross forces in Birming- ham and Bessemer will be directed by Field Marshal J. Frank Rushton, who has devoted the greater part of his time this week to perfecting team work details, and as he is East master in campaign achievements he needs only enthusiastic cooperation on the part -sf people in general, as well as sns picked aids, to make new high record in public service. His "iive-wire" men and the Boy Scouts, who are to be on duty, are waiting with all eagerness for Christmas week. And as the Red Cross has a tender appeal for all humane men and women, MT. Rushton should find a generous response to his call for vol unteers.
 In addition to those who have all ready volunteered it is hoped that hundreds will call at headquarters to- day to offer their services. There cannot be too many volunteer workers.
 Membership in the Red Cross costs only $1 year. Those who feel able to contribute $2 can do so and thus become subscribing members, entitled to the Red Cross Magazine, valuable periodical.
 { As few people hereabouts are so poor that they cannot afford to spend
 dollar on so noble cause, the Jeff
 on county allotment should be ex-
 d by several thousand. Let's all
 to make it forty thousand.

JERUSALEM THE GOLDEN

Jerusalem, the golden!
 With milk and honey b1est; Beneath. thy contemplation
 Sink heart and voice opprest. know not, oh. I know not,
 What joy awaits us there! What radiancy of glory!
 What bliss beyond compare! They stand, those halls of Zion.
 All jubirant with song, And bright with many an angel,
 And all the martyr throng. The Prince Is ever in them,
 The daylight is serene, The pastures of the blessed
 Are decked in glorious sheen. There is the throne of David;
 And there, from care released. The shout of them that triumph.
 The song of them that feast. And they. who with their Leader
 Have conquered in the fight. Forever and forever 5 Are clad in robes of white. o sweet and blessed country,
 The home of Gods elect! 0 sweet and blessed country
 That eager. hearts expect! E J Jesus. in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest ! Who art, with God the Father,
 And Spirit. ever blest.

yAMprREs ARE SHOCKED

New York Correspondence Pittsburg Dis
 patch.
 Shocked to the very depths of their souls, several hundred vampiring young women of the musical comedy stage along Broadway are preparing to submit a stingng protest to Mayor-elect Hylan and District Attorney Swann. It will be an emphatic and unequivocal protest against the proposed mandate ordering the wear ing of clothing in the performance of their acts. Like the proverbial bolt from the clear sky has come this unspeakable report Suffocating under the already burdensome attire they are forced to don, these young women cry out for con- sideration Its a horrible shame' say the front row beauties when all ths' world is trying to economize, we 4are forced to spend more money for clotl14ng. :" The girls all declare that they won& per nit any old mayor ecra along and make Arctic explorers out of them And so it would seem, after general survey of the situation, that the mayors edicl that Broadway must put on more cio.n- ing is going to be about as popular wlth the diapharous garbed young folk as one strange bulldog is with another

Gifts for Our Soldier Boys

 Besides the victrola, they are also sending lot of records with 1t. It is certainly very happy thought on the part of these young girls, and it Is fine example that many other clubs might roi- low.
