BORN IN BIRMINGHAM

Berney Loveman was born in Birming ham in 1892. and was graduate of the Birmingham High school, attended Bing- ham school at Bingham, N. C., and Mann school in New York After his school days were over he entered the large es- tablishment of Loveman, Joseph & Loeb. and soon became, under the guidance of his father, A. B. Loveman, now de- ceased, one of Birmingham most prom ising young business men. When trouble with Mexico seemed inevitable Berney LOveman volunteered in the Alabama na- tional guard and saw service on the Mex ican border. He was soldier, every inch of him, and was eager to see service In France. He remained in the national guard until it was federalized, and then was assigned to duty with the Rainbow division stationed at Minneola, Long Island.
 Tn his business life he was manager of the automobile department of Love- man, Joseph & Loeb, and assistant man. ager of the furniture department. He was universally popular and. loved by all of the employees of the, firm.
 He is survived by his mother, Mrs. Minnie Loveman; a brother, Joseph H. Loveman of Birmingham; two sisters, Mrs Esther Kempner of Little Rock and Miss Leona Loveman of this city.
 DISPATCH FROM NEW YORK
 An Associated Press dispatch telling of MT. Loveman's death, reads as follows:
 New York, October S1.-Corporal Ber- ney E. Loveman, 25 years old, 167th Uni- ted States infantry, of Birmingham. Ala, committed suicide early today by jump ing from an eighth floor window of an uptown hotel, where he had been stop ping for several days. A letter asked that J. H. Loveman of Birmingham be notified of his death.
 "A marriage license obtained yesterday showed that Loveman planned to marry Miss Regina Glanokopf of this city. Two wedding rings bearing the initials ot Loveman and the young woman were found with the license
 Police inquiry developed that Love mans act was due to opposition to the wedding on the part of Miss Glanokopf's E father, who told the corporal that q marriage would be unwise while he, ir service, faced the possibility of going abroad and returning cripple"

DESPoNDENCY IS CAUSE

The cause of the rash act is assigned to despondency created over MT. Loveman's failure to get the consent of his fiance's father to their marriage, the objection be- ing raised by the parent that Mir Love-
 man was in the service of the United States and that he might be wounded or returned to civil life cripple, and that 1t was best from his viewpoint at this time to postpone the marriage. In young Loveman's possession was found a marriage license to wed the young woman of his choice, Miss Regina
 Glanzkoff, two wedding rings, bearing the initials of MT. Loveman and the young woman he was to have wed, and a letter asking that his brother, Joseph H. Loveman of Birmingham, be notified of his death.
 The young lady for whom MT. Loveman took his life, rather than give her up, as he felt he must was visitor in Bir- mingham and a guest of the Lovemans in their home here about three years ago, and it was then that their romance began. Upon his assignment to the Rainbow division" Berney Loveman re- newed his suit, as he was stationed at Mineola, not far distant from his sweet heart. who resided in New York, ner father being wealthy New York mill linery manufacturer.

ed later. .E
1t has been the custom for all bor-
rower's cards to be kept on file at

rary. Just as a bank does not care
for its ~depositors . book but expects
each individual to attend to this for
himself. so each individual will be ex-
pected to attend to his own card. This
will insure only the owner Of the
card or someone properly authorized
to do so using the card and eliminates
all complaints I'VE the use of card by
other than the owner. When q book
Is returned and no other drawn the
borrower takes his card home with
him until he wishes to Use 1t again.
A charge Of five cents will be made
for all lost or mutilated cards.
A second change will be that no
book from the regular collection will
be allowed to be drawn from the lib
rary the same day it is returned. This
rule is necessary in order to properly
examine the book for mending. re-
pair it and reshelve it.
In the matter of reserves notices
will be sent out on postals instead of
by telephone, the person reserving
the book paying for the postal. Res
ervatiops may be made by telephone
as before and the postal paid for
when the book Is taken. This does
not apply to renewals. Of course.
It is hoped and believed that these
changes will prove a convenience to
the public as we'll as to the library
staff and that the time thus saved In
routine work can more probably be
spent In personal service.
