EXTRAORDINARY REVENUES

Other figures compiled recently by of- ficials from authoritative sources show that the Mexican government received extha ordinary revenues during 1918 by the se of stock in the Hawalian-American steamship line, 100000 pesos, and the abrogation of the Tehuantepec railway concession, 100000 pesos. which are ca ssed as ordinary revenue in Cabreras S report
 In addition the National railways, which were confiscated by the Carranza. government, yielded during the year s, S,0OO000 pesos; private industrial plants, mines, etc, confiscated and not yet re- turned to the owners, gave another s, ,000,0o0 pesos to the public treasury; and the Wells-Fargo and Mexican Express companies contributed 100000 pesos ore-half of the income of the companies No reports have been made on the op- eration of revenue of the Mexican rail- ways, the tramways of Mexico City or the Mexican Telephone company's prop critics since they were confiScated. but the official report of Cabrera includes al! the amounts received from the vari- ous sources given above parts of the normal revenue incomes or the govern n,eEt.
 It is said that if the confiscated prop critics had been restored to their owners, the annual bond interest Gebts paid, and the extraordinary revenue from the sale of the steamship stock and the abroga- ton of the railway concession eliminated, the real deficit for the year would have been approximately 9s, ,PCO,0oo pesos or s4S,- COG 0e

For the Good of
 The Community


 A stranger, standing at Avenue H and Twentieth street, asked the question He was given the information.
 Where is No. 2U2l Avenue IF"
 His question answered, the stranger thanked his informant and started in the direction of Twenty-first street as di- rected.
 How easy it would have beer for the stranger to have found the street and number for which he was looking had street and house numbers been in the proper places. The plating of Birmingham makes it easy for person to find his way about when once the system is understood, if there were proper markings at the street intersections.
 The writer does not recall having seen more than half dozen signs at street in- tersections although he has been over the greater part of the city in recent months And house numbers are almost as scarce In most cities street signs and house numberings are compulsory, the city putt ting up the signs at street intersections and requiring the property owners to put up the numbers on their houses
 In some of the cities the street names are cut into the walls of corner buildings, or painted signs tackled on them; in others the signs are placed on specially provided posts, or attached to lamp posts
 Not only is it difficult for strangers to find places they wish to visit in Birming- ham, but the old resident, unless he be fla miliar with the locality, is often compelled to make inquiries along the way.
 Especially is this true of the South High lands and other residence sections, and in the newer portions of the city, where street planning differs from that of the original plat of what is generally known as Bir- lningham proper
 The attention of the city commissioners has been called to this matter several times in the past, but without effect. They say they haven't the money to pay for signs. The cost of the street signs would be com paratively small, and the policemen could tack them up
 An ordinance might be passed requir- ing the property owners to put street num- bers on their houses, the city buying them in bulk and charging the property owners the actual cost thereof. This would cost the city nothing.
 Bv all means street signs should be put

 MISS MARY RUMPH
 The answer to this question gives us the name of Miss Mary Rumpb. She was trained social worker when she came to this task, with a marked love of child life. s wonderful understanding of child nature and an astonishing grip upon the minds of boys who were often of the rough kind. She had served in playground work, of which she Vas a careful student; 7; she was kindergar- tener of experience, and she had the faculty of cuItivating the home spirit.
 All these would not have availed with out very remarkable degree of seil- denial, which enabled her to faithfully gather the children daily at F~Tst ave nue and Twentieth street, accompany them to the school at Green Springs park. by way of the Idiewild car line, tramping the distance between that ter minus and the school building in all weathers. and persistently and cheerful ly Keeping LID the morale of the chil- dren The attendance records show that in all weathers the youngsters were on hand and that the influence Of MISS Mary was plainly the source of the'r ,Ia

EARNING HER LIVING

One of these children has happened to call at the office of the association Jus' as this brief notice was being prepa@<- She is a charming girl of +. earning her living in Birmingham after several years on a farm. She appears to be in excei- lent health, but at the time she Iirst came to us was snaemic and had hls- tory of exposure to tuberculosis lniec- ton. Other children in the same fa~ily were also enrolled; they are no" attend ing school regularly and successfully. The same is true of all our former pupils whom we can trace.
 It seems fitting that in the contlnua- tion of the school under still more 1aV- orable conditions the memory Of MISS Mary Rumph should be perVtuateu' Her death in the fall of 1918 brought 10 those interested in the sociH welfare of dependent homes and children M this city a sense of rreparable loss. Had she lived we should have expected her to head the children's department 5t ene sanatorium which now we construct not only for the welfare of the children but as loving tribute to her self-sacrifiee and devotion.

FINANCIAL JUGGLING IN MEXICO WATCHED CLOSELY BY TANKS
Specialist Says Finance Min ister Failed to Include Many Big Items in Re
 cent Statement
By Am.cIstse Pre-.

Washington, May 4.-Financial leglsla- tfon which President Carranza has asked the Mexican congress to consider at the extra session now being held is oeins watched closely by officials here, it was learned today. This is due to American interests being involved and to the recent statement of Luis Cabrera. secretary ot fiance in the Mexican cabinet, that Mex ico would not pay it's debts at present even if it had the money. preferring to await the results of the Paris peace con ference to see what the world in gen. era1 will do with it's obligations, how many nations will repudiate their debts, and how many will trim their obligations to figures compatible with their income.
 Figures recently received from Mexico City through official channels give the deficit for 1918, as announced by Ca brera, as 100000 pesos, or about $3.5o- ooo But an investi gation of the Mex ican financial situation by T. w. Oster- held. specialist and consulting expert in Mexican values for a prominent Wall street firm, show that Cabrera, in mak- ing the report of the deficit failed to take into account the following items, amounts being in pesos:
 National external bond interest for 1918, unpaid, 1b,1e0,0o0; national internal bond interest for 191S unpaid, 5,S1e,G e,GD0; interest on unpaid national bond interest. 109S,- 009: guaranteed railway bond interest, 20,- 7S0,0G0: interest on unpaid interest on preceding, 1,030o00. and bond guaranteed government other than railway bonds, 3 H75 600

SCHOOL CHILDREN HELP

The school children of the city had, bv selling Red Cross seals, provided a little fund which warranted doms some thing for children. To this Jnerc mas been added the proceeds of the tinfoil collected largely by children. No@ing was more fit than to spend the chil- dren's money on these unfortunates. The city commission was readily persuaded to loan site in Green Springs park, and d few hundred dollars was spent in constructing a simple shack, the walls being left out and the space filled with screen wire, sheltered in time of rain by substantial curtains.
 The work was opened in June and 2D children were cared for during part of that year entirely in the open air throughout the summer, fall winter and spring. The work continued the follow ing year and led directly to the convic- ton that in some more favorable form it must be made permanent.
 .<The children were fed, in many in stances were supplied with necessary i, clothing and shoes and helped forward in their school studies. enabling some to make Up grades they had lost by ill

A strong committee has been formed Of 70 prominent women members of the anti-tuperculosis association, under the leadership of Mrs w. ?. McAdory, its vice president, 10 make their first work the care of tuberculosis children. This means the completion of the plan to transfer the open-air school service to permanent home at Red Mountain sanatorium A children's department, separate from the building occupied by sick adults. will be constructed, and the new section. with resident teacher nurse. is to be known as the Mary Rumph memorial
 In the spring of 1915 q considera ole number of children in homes where tu- beTculosis patients were living and ia which there was generally shortage of food supplies and other unpleasant con- dtions became known to the visiting nurse Of the anti-tuberculosis assoca- tion. Similar organizatio in other cities had long ago established open air schools or day camps for this class of children, but nothing of the kind had been attempted in Alabama. 1t was felt that the time had come to demonstrate to the people of Birmingham that lives could be saved by reinforcing the health of infected children. The grave question was: WhoA should lead these children back to health and in what way should the work be attempted?
