AZ the Strand.

One Of the best photo plays in which
Francis x. Bushman and Beverly
Bayne have been seen recently in To-
col picture houses, Is "The Voice OF
Conscience" being shown at the Strand.
It is a production combining both
thrills and charm, and has many excit-
ing and interesting incidents depicting
nearly every phase Of life, from the
misery Of a prison cell to the rapture
OF love confessed.
In the dual role Of William Potter
and James Houston, Mr.. Bushman Is
given an opportunity for the delinea-
ton of strong Characterization. which
he handles in an effective manner. Miss
Bayne, ais Allane Houston. has part
which is we'll suited to her talents and
plays with a grace and charm that Is
most appealing. The rest Of the char
acters are all in capable hands, and
the play tells good story effective
ly, has plenty to excite and hold the

average offering.
An interesting reel Of the Pathe Sc

shown also.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, Septemoer z4.-(SpeclalJ The personnel of the committees ap- pointed by the war industries board meets with the heartiest approval of the entire trade. Broad-minded, large merchants and planters as they are the trade, are satisfied that their ef- fort will be to act for the best inter- ests of the country and the trade. sharp advance was the register of their opinion, on which was met hedge sell ing against the cotton which had been accumulated in the south during the past few days of uncertainty and doubt. It is but natural that the trade should take a little time to find itself but we feel that there will be wider distribution of cotton as the victories of the allies point toward peace. Our local traders are bearish because they infer that new buyers will not come in sufficient numbers to absorb the spots now offering regardless of the ultimate course of prices.-Hubbard Bros. x Co.,.

LOAN PARADE ID BE FEATURED BY UNIQUE FLOATS
Chairman Brown and C0m- mittee Completing Plans
 for Big Opening of Campaign

As the day for the opening of the Fourth Liberty Loan draws nigh interest in it grows intense. The parade, which will feature the opening day next Sat urday, those in charge of it assure the public, will be the largest and contain a greater number of unique features and floats than any parade held in Br- mingham in long time.
 Information from the country surround ing indicates that hundreds of visitors will be here to see it and to help launch the campaign in the most effective man. ner Grand Marshal McCleery and his subcommittee are working hard to get everything in good shape and the fruits of their good work are already in evil dence.
 County Chairman Murray Brown has requested the merchants to close their places of business Saturday afternoon from to o'clock in order that their clerks may not only witness it, but par ticipate, thereby lending dignity to the occasion. It is expected that the city commissioners and the county board of revenue will join in this request.
 County Chairman Murray Brown said yesterday that he wanted it thoroughly understood that the government expects all essential industries which cannot De suspended, and war activities that can not be halted, to continue working un- interruptedly, and he said he further wanted it clearly understood that his appeal for closing does not apply to them The men employed at these places he said, are needed more there than as spectators at the parade.
 Field Marshal J. Frank Rushton has been requested by the organizations at Anniston and other Alabama cities to visit them and explain the Birmingham plan, so that they may pattern their work after that of the allied armies.
 County Chairman Murray Brown wants to impress upon the people of Birming- ham the necessity of displaying the American flag during the campaign, both on their houses and by wearing them

AVIATOR TAKES 65

London, September 24.-British avia- tors, flying low in one machine, brought about the surrender of 65 Germans and without leaving their plane shep- herded the party across No Mans Land to the British lines, according to a tale from the battlefield made public to- day.
 The pilot and his observer had been attacked from a trench and sunken road. The pilot dived and replied to the enemy fire with his machine gun, killing one and wounding three. The Germans, in panic, ceased firing and hoisted a white handkerchief.
 As there was no British infantry in that neighb borhood the pilot descended to within 50 feet of the ground and ordered the Germans out of the trenches, circling around them to in" sure that none escaped. All were safe ly brought in and handed over to the nearest British troops. The aviators then resumed their patrol.

ing the new herbal stomach remedy, Plant Juice. When the stomach is weak. there is a lack of vital activity from want of sufficient gastric juice Hence a remedy that will stimulate these parts to action and infuse them with vitality will remove the cause and likewise the disease.
 That Plant Juice, the new herbal stomach remedy, builds up the entire system and restores it to perfect health, is proven by the numerous testimonials given daily by local people who have been restored to health. One of the most recent is that of Mir w. E. Martin of No 2221 North Seventh avenue, Bir mingham, a we'll known trainman on the Seaboard Air Line, who has wide acquaintance. He stated
 For years I have been a great suf ferer from stomach trouble: I had in- digestion so bad that could hardly keep any food on my stomach, as it would ferment and cause gas to form I was nervous, could not sleep, and lad F eadaches and dizzy spells, had ter iiole pains ali through my body; I had la isll q lump in the pit Of my tornax.l 'lfTe lead and lad 10 ambftionTr energy, ito do my work. I had heard of Plant Juice and as a last resort began Ito take it. I can now truthfully say that it has put my system in fine condi- |tion; sleep we'll, am not nervous and can eat any kind of food and have a fine appetite for my meals. My wife is taking it also with fine results. It is certainly great medicine" F The Plant Juice Man is at Norton's Drug Store, corner of Second avenue ana Twentieth street, where he is daily meeting the local puplic and introduc- ing and explaining the merits of this remedy.

resting possibly on Uskub or thereabouts. Even if such a me- neuver is possible doubtless 1t will be necessary for the enemy to straighten his line westward through Albania to the Adriatic sea.
 That the allied Hanks are mov- ing swiftly to prevent the separated Armies from joining up is tndt- cated in the capture of PrfleP ana the advance of the British to the north of Lake Doiran. These ma neuvers point to. an attempt at rolling up movements of great pro- portions by the allies.
 In Palestine the British on the coast have taken the important towns of Haifa and Acre, while east of the Jordan the Turks are every where in retreat, hard pressed by the British and the tribesmen or the King of Hedjas.
 Inside the big sack, the neck Of which was sewed up by the British in their initial drive, many more prisoners have been taken and the aggregate now greatly exceeds the 25.OO0 officially reported.
 To the west of St. Quentin, over U from the Omignon river, the Brit ish have materially advanced their front notwithstanding the desper- ate resistance of the enemy, and taken about 800 prisoners. Hard fighting Is in progress at selency, n scant two miles from the western outskirts of St. Quentin. Around Epehy and further north in the Cambrai sector the British positions in front of the Hindenburg line have been bettered. In Flanders the British have reeapturcd a por- tion of their old trench system south of Ypres.
 That the Germans, even though the weather conditions preclude i'm fantry activity, are fearful that the Americans anticipate further attack is indicated by their almost continuous bOmbardment of the American positions with heavy guns along the Lorraine front.
 In an address before the main committee of the Reichstag the German imperial chancellor, Count yOn Hertling, admitted that there was deep public discontent in Ger many, but asserted that if it was due to Germany's present military situation it far exceeded justifiable limits. Admitting reverses, the chancellor said the situation was grave, "but we have no cause to be faint-hearted.' With peace with Russia and Rumania, the chanceI- Tor added, a considerable portion of Germany's eastern army could be employed on the west front.

will readily adopt the above sugges- ton, or some other, to stop this cru sade that is demoralizing the negro workers in this district Think of the number of men stopping their work today to accompany their wives or their daughters to the courts; can there be any gain in this? Has the state gained anything? It has not, but on the other hand it has lost, and the purpose of the state to keep peace and happiness with all of it's people has failed. Is it only because somebody wanted a fee?
 A prominent lawyer of Birmingham stated before the commission of Blr mingham a few days ago that he knew of negro women being taken from their washtubs on the charge of va grancy. Certainly this condition should not be allowed to continue.
 It is but proper for me to say that Judge H. B. Abernethy, who has wide experience in handling criminal matters and the unfortunates among my people, brings a large sympa .hJ into the handling of the cases before him, and is bending his utmost efforts to combat those who would make ar rests merely for fees. Very respect fully OSCAR w. ADAMS, Birmingham, September "A, 1918.

In Macedonia and Palestine the entente allied forces are giving the already badly beaten Bulgarians, Germans and Turks no rest, while in France the British and French nre continuing to draw their net more closely about St. Quentin and the remaining elements of the Hindenburg line in this immediate region.
 In Macedonia the situation of the BuIRarfans and Germans dail grows more critical as the allied forces steadily maintain their pressure against them. In Turkey the latest operations of the Brit ish and Arab tribesmen friendly to the allied cause seemingly fore cast the complete destruction or of capture of the Ottoman troops i'm Palestine on both, sides of the River Jordan.
 st. Quentin, through the latest advances of the British and French, is all but enveloped, and to the north
  ing Cambrai has been further en- croached upon by Field Marshal Haig's men.
 All along the 1OO-mile front in Macedonia, from the region north of MOnastir to Lake Doiran, the entire entente armies have pressed further forward against the de- mOrnlixed Bulgarians, whose re- Inducements have not been able to stiffen the line for face-nb0ut. North of MOnastir the important strategic position of Prilep has been occupied, thus giving control of the numerous railroads rndiating from 1t to the FrenSh cavalry; in the center the Serbians have pushed their wedge further in be- tween the enemy's western and eastern armies, while on the ex- treme eastern flank the British and Creeks have advanced along both sides of the Vardar to n depth av- eraeing about 10 miles over a front of 20 miles. Nowhere are the en- tente commanders permitting the Bulgarians and Germans to lose contact with the advancing foes. who are hnrassing them vigorously.
 So badly has the 1OO-miie line been penetrated or battered that immediate dire calamity seemingly faces the enemy unless the retreat is greatly hastened and unless the enemy is fleet enough of foot to Outdfstance the allies on the wings of the drive and recOnstitute his front to the north with it's center
