HOWARD COLLEGE
 PLAN SAID ID MAKE
 STRONGEST APPEAL
Birmingham Has Better Chance to Get Hospital With This Than Any
 Other Proposal

Information received in Birmingham from Washington is to the effect that Birmingham. in order to secure one of the war department reconstruction hos pitals. would do well to concentrate on the Howard college proposition. as 1t is understood that this makes stronger appeal than any other project submit ted
 In fact it is stated definitely that the Southside jail and the Birmingham Mo tor and Country club cannot be consid- cred.
 The reason for this is said to be that the war department is showing most fa- yor to projects which already have build inps and for this reason number or colleges and suburban resort hotels have already been favorably considered.
 Among the chief advantages to How ard college of having the institution ac- cepted will be the fact that the govern ment will pay excellent rental during a neriod when the college could not expect to do normal work because of the great number of the country's young men who arc in the army and navy. Furthermore, inc government will probably erect a number of valuable buildings which will mean that the property when turned mack to the college authorities will be greatly enhanced In value.

A Quick Change of Mind

Forney is willing to hazard the state cent that circumstances. perilous and otherwise, sometimes influence 8 change of mind with the best of men, and yet they claim the credit of possessing wis dom.
 It all came about in this way: Mir Brandon ran down into the warden s office of the county jail with handful of indictments, recently returned by the grand jury, and asked permission to go in the jail to see the defendants to find out whether they had any wit nesses they wished subpoenaed for the cases for trial next week. Warden c. w. Austin inquired if he had been vac- cinated and MT. Brandon replied that he had. but was not certain that his vaccination was sufficient at this time to give him immunity from smallpox. He was advised to be vaccinated, but
