BILLY SUNDAY WILL
 4DR|VE THE DEVIL
 OUT OF ALABAMA"
Official Announcement Is Made That He Will Come
 to Birmingham in 1919

Atlanta, November -(special)-lt was announced officially at Sunday headquarters today that Billy Sunday and his co-workers will conduct an evangelistic campaign in Birmingham in January of 1919
 The evangelist is booked up solidly un- til that time, and he broke an engage ment to campaign in a northern city to take up the Birmingham meeting. Billy was influenced in his decision to go to Birmingham by the persistence of Sir minghams representatives in their re- peated invitations to him and by the remarkable reception given him in the south on his initial campaign
 Birmingham has been trying to secure the services of Mr Sunday and his party for several years, and several times during his two weeks in Atlanta have come special delegations and writ ten invitations stressing the imperative ness of Birmingham's call.
 I'm sure they are a live bunch down Birmingham way" remarked the evan gelist, "and if God spares me until Janu- ary of 1919 I'll be there with both feet and ready to conduct a campaign that will drive the devil out of the entire state of Alabama"
 Mir Sunday declared he is anxious to go to Birmingham. He's heard so much about it's pep and push, he said, that he had arranged to postpone campaign up north" to go into Alabama in 1919 He plans to bring with him to Birming ham every member of the Sunday party now campaigning in Atlanta.

The men and women around at the Birmingham office of the Postal Tele graph Gable company in the Brown Marx building came forward with q fine list of subscriptions yesterday for The Age Herald soldiers tobacco funG. They appreciate the fact that when an American soldier in France wants a smoke he wants it bad and he wants the same kind of tobacco that he IS accustomed to use al home.
 The beauty about The Age Herald tobacco fund is that arrangements have been made whereby every 25 cents con tributed sends 85 cents worth of to- baceo of various well known brands to one of the boys at the front There is no war tax: the tobacco ;s trans norted free, and it is placed into the hands of the men by the Red Cross.
 The Age-Herald fund has already provided more than 5000 of these Kits of smoking tobacco, each of which con- tains hundreds of smokes for the boys.

GOOD CARPIO WOMAN
GOES TO HER REWARD

Carpio Free Press: Mrs. E. w. Err
ickson, aged 43, of north east of Car
pic, passed away at the Kenmare hos
pital early last Saturday morning,
where she was taken few days be-
fore for medical treatment. Death
was due to heart trouble and goitre
and complications. Mrs. Erickson
had been ailing for the past year and
it was thought best to take her to
Kenmare where at the hospital she
could get special treatment, and she
was apparently making good Roadway
to recovery when in the twinkling Of
an eye she passed away peacefully
and quietly. The deceased is surviv-
ed by her husband and seven children.
Funeral services will be held this af-
ternoon from the North Prairie
church, Rev. J. G. Rugland officiating,
and interment made in the cemetery
adjoining the church. She has been a
member of the Synod church for years
and was at all times an enthusiastic
worker for everything that was ele-
waiting, and always took an active
part in community welfare Added
to these, she was a devoted wife and
mother. The Free Press joins in with
the bereaved husband and family in
extending sympathy in their hour Of
sorrow.
