J. W. Brown, organizer of the United Mine Workers of America, was the prin- cipal speaker at the mass meeting held last night at the city hall, Ensley. by the striking metal workers of the dis trict.

 Organizer Brown reviewed at length the conflict between capital and labor. Mir. Brown gave praise to the present admin istration and denounced the action of the corporate interests. referring to work ing men as slaves of the corporations. He divided his time between denouncing the corporations and attacking the press.
 Tom Bailey, leader and organizer Of the Pattern Makers of America, asked the business men and office girls to support the fight for an eight-hour law. At the close of his speech, MT.

ADJUSTMENTS
Camp Mcclellan Minstrels

It is no exaggeration to say that the performance given at the Jefferson theatre last night by the Twenty ninth Ian was one of the best entertainments of its kind ever seen in Birmingham, professional troupes included.
 As matter of fact, the soldiers who took part are all professionals who were on the stage when drafted. or emi-professionals who have had much experience. The result was perform ance greeted by one of the largest crowds of the season, which everyone present enjoyed. There was more talent in the company than is found in the average minstrel organization With elaborate scenery, costumes and HSht effects the Camp Mcclellan boys could hold their own with the best of them. This may appear to be rather fulsome praise, but anyone who was present last night will bear witness to the excellence and variety of the entertainment pro- vided. If any patriotic persons merely went with the expectation that they would submit to boredom for the sake of helping along a good cause" they were agreeahly disappointed.
 The first part was presented with a verve and smoothness which soon set at rest all doubts of the company's ability. The vocal selections were par tieularly good, the ensembles being as fine as one could wish to hear, while the individual stars shone with such brilliancy that they were forced to re- spond to numerous encores. Sergt. Alec Porter, well known to Birmingham peo- pie, was an admirable interlocutor, and his little skit, ."The Three Trees" made quite hit, while the clever buresque of this humorous recitation, formerly done by Tom McNaughton in ''The Spring Maid,'' was extremely amusing The burlesque was the work of one of the blackface comedians and did not ap- pear on the programme
 William Small and Hurley x. Thacker contributed a great deal of comedy as the leading end men. R. w. Kirsch- baum, William Kane, William Wrisht and Mickey Fox were the other end men and all gave a good account of them selves.

GRIN AND WIN
By w. H. J. TAYLOR President of the Retail Credit Mems National Association

Insistent urging to save, save, save repeated warnings of the disaster that will surely overtake us If we do not hoard--reports of soldiers with out sufficient clothing, food and guns-cries of extravaganza at tho sensible indulgence in refreshing amusements These are indeed poor propaganda for patriotism. If, with ali the natural resources at our com mand and with all our national re- sourcefulness, we allow the preach CTS of pessimism depress us, then we are indeed defeated before the start.
 Grin and win is good old motto. a splendid slogan for the nation as well as for the individual.
 Business wants expression, not de- pression: and business is as respon- sive to mood as it is responsible tor our ultimate success.
 s% We all want to save sensibly, so Fssthat we may serve sensibly, but let's do 1t with a smile.
 We all like encouragement. The sweet cookie of praise for work well done is relished by every man. The country's morale is as sensitive as that of an individual. It should be stimulated and kept up by proper promulgation of the true proportion of things. We are in the war, bat we are not going to let it swamp us You would not gain many re- cruits by emphasizing the danger of death. Why try to frighten the coun- try into being patriotic?
 Let there be wheatless days and meatless days and heatless days but in heavens name. not senseless days. And it is the antithesis of cood sense to sound the tocsin of alarm instead of the bugle blare of courage.
 Courage is cheerful That's why it wins,
 Let us live cheerfully and spend cheerfully and go about our daily tasks in the happy. determined spirit that alPs well with America in or out of the war.
 There is a popular song entitled, ..Send Me Away With a Smile.' Yes. and keep on smiling after I'm gone. Realize that few shivers may cause inconvenience, but don't mistake a temporary shortage of coal for sign of sorrow. It's all in the game, and we're in the game to win.
 We are not going to shut up shop and go out of business and sit around and moan. There is plenty of work to do. Let's go about doing 1t with the chirp of confidence.
 So get right idea of this saving business and we will keep our heads UT. our chins out and the old grin going. Encourage business by spend- ing, keep the country cheerful and you keep the country safe. | (Copyright, 1913. by King Features
