 At the meeting yesterday plans were outlined for the greater cooperation of the local association with the national body. feature of the meeting was an by Miss Elizabeth Shpp, the gov ernment farm expert, who spoke on the ways and means by which the woman can help the food situation by the elimination of waste and other methods of conserva- ton.
 Mrs. R. F. Johnston reported the or ganization of several branch associations in the county. This movement is being actively carried on, in the effort to form branches in every precinct voting dis trct of the county, and is meeting with success.

MARZONI OFF TO
 ENTER SERVICE OF
 U. s. GOVERNMENT
Birmingham Man Lacked Only Few Months of Finishing Course at
 Naval Academy

Petersen B. Marzoni, former Annap- oils man and for four years well known newspaper man of Birming gham, has entered the service of his coun- try at Washington.
 Mr. Marzoni left Friday morning, fol- lowing orders to report to the navy department and, it is understood has been given commission as ensign. He was accompanied by Mrs. Marzoni.
 When it was learned that war with Germany would become an actual reality, MT. Marzoni wired the navy department at Washington, offering his services and the offer was int mediately accepted with orders to re- port at once.
 Although MT. Marzoni lacked a few months finishing his course at An- napolis, he is considered as splendidly trained for duties as a raval officer. He has hundreds of friends in Bir- mingham who are waiting with keen interest for news of him in his new field,j and who feel that in giving to the navy department such an officer as MT. Marzoni Birmingham is giving substantial contribution and one which will work to the credit of the nation and the city which he calls home

BIRMINGHAM NEEDS
 AN ORNITHOLOGIST

Birmingham needs an ornithologisr.
 George B. Ward is looking for one, for he has more than 5000 bird eggs, out sum in excess of $lO0. The city hall was visited by a steady stream of ruddy-faced youngsters yesterday, bearing in various receptacles the eggs of English sparrows. These little chirp- CTS having come under the ban of the vegetation, the city commission pro- claimed Tuesday that bounty would be paid to those who killed. the birds and robbed their nests.
 Following upon the heels of this an- nouncement came results. More than 100 boys have claimed rewards, which are one cent for each sparrow, dead or alive, and three cents for an egg.
 The stipulation that one cent would be paid for sparrows. dead or alive, made bird cage of the presidents of- flee yesterday One little fellow want ed to claim his reward and was so anxious that he pulled off the lid and liberated his animated prizes. They fluttered about the room. Miss Brown. acting ornithologist, fled for safety.
 "I am mighty glad to see the boys ridding the city of these English sparrows," George Ward stated, as he looked out the window. surveying the budding flowers and silently chanted a little roundelay which mentioned the "city beautiful" and "clean-up week"
 Incidentally the city ornithologiss will draw no fat salary, He will be merely "collector of bird eggs"

Real Estate Exchange to Abolish Cloth Banners
 and Moving Day.

All large display cloth signs, advertis- ing for rent or "for sale'' property in Birmingham are to be torn down and the custom of advertising vacancies in this way is to be abolished, according to unanimous action taken by the Birming- ham Real Estate exchange
 The exchange has gone on record in favor of a motion made by Robert Jem- ison, Jr., to the effect that the signs did much to falsely advertise Birming- ham as a more or less flor rent town, and adopted resolutions to the effect that the use of such signs be discontinued
 Announcement is also made by Secre- tary Robert P. McDavid of action of the exchange in doing away with a regular moving day In Birmingham and arrang- ing for a system which will permit mov- ing throughout the year. It is stated that the changing of this system will work a great benefit to the real estate agents in Birmingham, as it will scatter the business over the entire year instead of having it all come at a rush once or twice a year,
 The exchange will aid in the "clean up'' campaign, and will endeavor to have small advertising signs of a miscellaneous nature which now adorn various down. town and city properties put on the taboo Hist
