A Contented City

From the National Geographic Maga-
 zine.
 Adelaide's CT sual plan-a business sec tion surrounded by a zone of 2OO0 acres of park lands, beyond which are the residential sections-seems designed to put business cares. recreation and quiet home life in separate compartments. The organization of city life to allow for leisure-a feeling more prevalent in Ade- laide than in Melbourne, or even in Syd- ney, and almost unknown in America, cities-is partly responsible for the uni versal impression among visitors that Adelaide ranks high in general culture.
 Both climate and the high quality of the south Australian pioneers are also factors which have helped to make Ade- laide such a desirable place of residence. Those who are attracted by the climate, people and manner of life of the foothill cities of southern California, who care for out-of-door life and flowers and fruit, and wish to spend week-ends in nearby mountains or at the seashore, would feel at home in Adelaide.
 Most writers on Australia profess to see differences in types and manners in the three leading cities of the common wealth, and the natives feel sure that differences exist. Melbourne is .hust- ling;' Sydney is "easy going" Adelaide Is solid and contented." On the basis of short acquaintance these characteriza- tions seem as unreal as "dead Phila- delphia or 'provincial Boston would to an Australian traveller In the American sense, no Australian city is hustling; all are easy going and contented; all are doing much business in an orderly, ef- ficient manner. As places for residences they have few competitors among the cities of the United States.

Fencing a Continent

The state of South Australia has. since 1891, erected 29,14s miles of "vermin fences" enough to encircle the globe and with the remnant build a double line of fence along the southern border of the United States. When contracts now run ming are completed the mileage will be much increased. New South Wales has expended over $27,00OOOO for rabbit ex- termination, and has within it's borders 9s GOO miles of fence.
 Of late years the rabbit has been re- paying in part for his keep-paying board, as 1t were. He goes to swell the total of food exports from the commonwealth. Along the country roads rabbits may be seen hung on the fences awaiting the passage of the rabbit carts which convey them to the packing houses to be prepared for shipment as frozen meat and hides. Practically all are exported dhe Australian does not eat "vermin'), and during 1913 frozen rabbit and hare to the value of s1,400,000 and skins to the value of $S0o0,0OO were sent from com. monwealth ports

her experiences on the stage, in the American Magazine She says:
 Playing stock is an advantage if you don't allow the praise that you get from people who really don't know to upset you. They get to know you, and send you real homemade pies and pin- cushions and name their babies after you-according to sex, of course This week you come on as Camille. Loud applause Next week you come on as Topsy in Uncle Toms Cabin Won derful! You may be too fat or too tall or too blond. But everything you do is wonderful!' You forget that it is you, their favoriate personality, the audience IS applauding, and not the actress's work, ana you mix the two things up if you don't look out. In stock, throughout the country, an actress plays parts she never would dream of playing in New York Camille, Carmen, and so on. I wouldn't think of plasing Camille until Bernhardt had been dead for years and memories Of her had been wiped out went to see Bernhardt when she was here four or rye years ago--went to see what l had been led to believe was the remnants or a great actress. People said: She's nothing like she was. She has lost her flgure and her beautiful voice. Don't go, But lf you do go, don't sit too close.' But went, hoping to catch something rom her Camille.

 Diet, however, is really serious mat ter and many people suffer as much from dietary eccentricities and food fads as from actual disease. The average indi- vidual can eat good, plain, wholesome food in moderation all his life without ever being aware that he has digestive apparatus. Starvation to cure a fam cied ailment or to reduce an expansive waist line has shortened many lives, just as indiscretion in the opposite direction. Certain diseases do require a particular diet, but this should be chosen by a physician of skill and not self pre- scribed. The self prescriber often has a fool for a patient.

From the United States Public Healtf
 Service Bulletin
 Pray, MT. Abernethy, what is a cure for gout?'' was the question of an indo- lent and luxurious citizen.
 Live upon sixpence a day and earn it," was the cogent reply.
 John Abernethy, second son of a Scotch Irish family, born April 8, 1764, a physi- clan of rare discernment. a surgeon of great skill. a lecturer, and teacher o1 dramatic magnetism. never said a better thing in his life. It is particularly apt in this coutnry where the sin of over- eating is far more common than the sin of overdrinldng. Gluttony always a fault, is all the more glaring in land where plentiful food supply permits it to be more general The sallow, fat cheeks, the aching Joints and irascible temper of the prosperous over-fed are far too common. Abernethy said to one such, the Duke of York, by the way, Cut off the supplies as the Duke of

WOODLAWN WILL PROFIT BY SCHOOL BUILDINGS

Probably no other section of Bir- mingham Is to profit more directly from the new school buildings which are to be erected in the city than Woodlawn.
 This section of the city is sure to get a high school. Of course 1t will ben eft the entire eastern section of the city, including East Lake and Avon dale and East Birmingham and Gate City, but none will probably reap such direct benefit as Woodlawn.
 After all, schools are the vital factor in determining the value of any realty for residence development If the

one of them has been improved on any, thing like the extensive scale to which such pieces of property are entitled.
 OTHER PARKS WELL KEPT
 The three downtown parks are well kept and well used. Ensley, West End and other suburbs all have park spaces now which will be improved and if past experience repeats itself no greater friends of such improvement will be found than the men who deal in real estate and the men who are really interested in the city's development and its future growth They know that piece of property with a well improved park or playground nearby is worth more money than one without such advantages. They know that cities win regulations as desirable places to live chiefly by the park, play ground and school advantages which such cities have to offer.
 The city authorities also realize this keenly and when the city finances can adjust themselves the commissioners are all eager to do everything in their power to make the city's park spaces available to the greatest number of people possi- ble.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-02-18

schools are what they should be tho property will always be in demand for residences.
 Woodlawn Is already one of the most attractive sections of Greater Birming- ham. It's quiet streets and pretty homes make it most desirable place to live. It has as fine street car facil- ities as could be asked for. Woodlawn is destined to see some extremely im- portant developments in the next few years which will more than ever at tract attention to the popular and growing suburb.

PARKS AND BOULEVARDS ADD
 MUCH TO CITY'S REALTY VALUES

Prime factors in real es- tate development in any city are parks and boulevards, and it is for this reason that The Age-Herald has for many years advocated and urged every kind of park and street development.
 Just as soon as the city gets in little better financial condition the commission is expected to take defi- mite action toward the further im- provement of park properties.
 Birmingham has some of the most beautiful areas In the southern states set aside for use as parks. Improve ments have been made in many of them, but there are others which are still in the

EVERY MAN Who Knows Birmingham
Knows That the City Never Stops Growing

There have been times when growth in one way has not been so marked as at other periods, but while this seeming lull is at- tended by advance in another di- rection.
 We have been identified with the development of Birming- ham for many years and there has never been a day when we could not look around and see growth.
 We have seen the city expand and round out through good times and bad, fair weather and foul, to it's present state of de- velopment, which compels the admiration of all who come here with unclOuded eyes.
 It has been our privilege to have had a part in much of this development. Mountain Ter race and the Country Club Dis trict, Fairfield and Central Park are some examples of our cooperation in meeting the re sidential needs of Birmingham and the district.
 We have helped to give Bir- mingham the Empire and Chamber of Commerce Build ings; the noble Tutwiler Hotel and the beautiful Ridgely, "the South's finest apartm ent house."

This and similar work in which we have been engaged has extended over a long period of time. We are not citing it in a spirit of boastfulness, but to substantiate our assertion that there has never been a day in which Birmingham has not reg istered growth in one direction or another.
 In the business of our rental department, the largest and most complete in the city, and in the activities of our coordinate organization, the Jemson-Sei- bels Insurance Agency, we have continually before us evidences that Birmingham is progressing and prospering.
 The recent increase of our capital stock to S100,000 is also proof of growth not only on the part of our city but of our two organizations, also.
 Service is our guiding princi- pie. We are equipped with re- sources and by experience to serve efficiently, investors, property owners, home builders and tenants. And our loan de- partment today, as in the past, is supplying money at low rates and thus doing it's share of com munity work.

FOR PUBLIC GOLF COURSE

The Age-Herald last fall began cam paign to have Green Springs park i'm proved as public golf course and play ground so that the thousands of citizens of Birmingham who do not belong to the country clubs could have place to enjoy golf, which in these modern times seems to be running baseball a close race for popularity all over the country. The peo- pie and commission are in thorough sym pathy with the movement and believe in its importance and just as soon as the weather moderates further steps will be taken to get the greens in shape so that the park can be formally opened to the public early in the season.
 The three Highland avenue parks are well known beauty. spots, although only

The city has been as liberal as 1t felt it could be with the development of the zoo at Avondale, but there is still much to be done to make this naturally beau- tiful park point of attraction for the whole city.

ed as applicable to human be-
ings, that the virus seeks to es-
cape from the body by way of
the nose and throat. not only
when incubation takes place
through these membranes, but
also when the incubation is ex-
perimentally made into the abb
dominal cavity. the blood. or the
brain itself. From this it is con-
cluded that the usual means of
escape of the virus is by way Of
the ordinary secretions of the
nose and throat, and, after swal-
lowing these, with the discharge
of the intestines.
IF. therefore. it is conceded, as
it has been demonstrated, that
the chief mode OF conveying the
the virus is through the agency
of human beings, it is only nat
ural that the protection to the
public can be best secured
through the discovery and isola-
ton of those i'll of the disease,
and the sanitary control of those
persons who have associated with
the sick and whose business calls
them away from home. Both
these conditions can be secured
without too great interference
with the comforts and the rights
of individuals. Where homes
are not suited to the care of the
i'll, so that other children in the
same or adjacent families are
exposed, the parents should con-
sent to removal to hospital in the
interests of the sick child itself,
as we'll as in the interest of other
children. But this removal or
care must include not only the
frankly paralyzed cases, but also
the other forms of the disease.
If the effort is to be made to
control the disease by isolation
and segregation of the i'll, then
these means must be made as in
elusive as possible"
