mail to Dr. J. J. Doster, dean of the summer school.
 These applications indicate a lively in terest in military training all over Ala bama and they come from representa- tive people. At present, 1t would seem that the. military feature of the summer school will be one of the most popular of the whole periods work. This is not to be wondered at for the progress of military training at the university for the past year has been exceedingly satisfac- tory. Although equipment and uniforms were received only short time ago, the university battalion shows up remarkably well. The precision with which the men who have been drilling for the past few weeks go through with the revolutions on the field and with the manual of arms is remarkable.
 The university has to thank for this the high character of the men who have had the military in charge. Capt. E. L. Min negerode is gentleman of high type and the students have come to like him per- sonally and at the same time they enter tain for him the highest admiration for his power to command men. The two United States army sergeants, Sergeants Coap and Kolb, have also done their work extremely we'll Captain Minne- gerode has the assistance of some excep- tionally we'll prepared students in the four captains in charge Of the companies composing the university battalion These captains all come from Mobile and speak

BESSEMER READY
 FOR REGISTRATION People Are Busy Figuring How Many Young Men
 Will Be Affected

Bessemer, May Special. )-Much comment is being caused by registra- tion day and the people of Bessemer are wondering just how many men this city will be called upon to reg ister on June 5. The estimate of the United States government on Besse- mer's population is 17,154; 1886 white and ss1s negroes. According to the estimation one in eleven of the total population will be required to res ister, which will total 1900; 675 whites and 900 negroes.
 It will be interesting to note that the foreign population of Bessemer Is 545 and is made up from the follow

years ago, when she was just a lit- tie child, and he has not been heard of since. As no report of his death has been received she is of the opln- ion that he is still alive and asks that the readers of The Age-Herald assist her in the search.
 Much interest is being manifested in the field day celebration which will be held at the Feeders playground Of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad company Saturday afternoon. Practi cally all departments will participate in the celebration and contests of all descriptions will be held. many prizes being offered the winners. The affair is for the benefit of the employees and their children and is being held un- der the supervision of the welfare department.
 The Bessemer delegation to the Ala bama State Federation of Labor will make their report to local Trades Council at it's meeting Monday night and a large crowd will be present To hear this report B. H Tillman, Jim Lipscomb and Joe Mcclure represented the council at the Anniston meet. while Joe Foster represented the Molders' union and R. Blacklock the machinists.

eloquently of the training that they have received in the University Military school of Mobile, headed by Prof Julius T. Wright, a university man of the days of military training. These cap- tains are James Cawthorn, Frank Left wich, John Moreland and Walter Mitch ell Their services are at the command of the commandant for the summer school work and the best of training in theory and practice will be given the students.
 As has been announced, the students taking military training at the summer school will have at the same time the opportunity of pursuing courses in regu- lar summer school work for which col lege credits are given and, of course. it is well to remember that the military work itself is given credit which can be applied to regular college work fearing to a degree.

Eleven Quality Stores appears in each advertisement of the Hill Grocery Co. And might add Il places to save money in buying at retail, If you don't believe me. read over the Hill ad on this page today and be satisfied. MT Hill puts everything down to the last notch and then pulls the trigger. The effect is seen in the volume of business done It takes hustling and strict business economy to build up chain of scores that have succeeded like the Hill stores And the beauty of the Hill advertising .ls that they always have the goods and deliver them. No catch-penny affair with them. They give it to gou in black and white The Hill ad this morning is really more interesting to most people than the war news on the first page.
