 SCIENTIFIC EFFICIENCY The Pittsburg Testing laboratory, as all well informed men of the city know, is an independent institution unques- toned as to its thorough scientific eff ficiency and reliability in making all manner of tests of a multitude of ma terials. Wallace Caldwell, recognized

For the Good of
 the Community

A pastor of the South Highland Presby- terian church, preached on the subject of Help"
 While his remarks were directed to those who claim to be Christians and, therefore, helpers in the cause of religion, they are equally applicable to the citizens of Birmingham or any other community, Just simply as citizens
 The helpers of city are the men and women who help to make their city better better morally, socially, industrially and in every other way
 The man who establishes nanufac- turing plant, or opens a mine that en- ploys men or women is helping those men and women to make living; helping them to earn the food they eat and the clothes they wear; helping them to be useful to the community in thaE he gives them an Opportunity to be producers of the things other men and women want and need
 The man or woman that contributes to the uplift of the community by building, or aiding in the building, of a church or a school, or any other institution that tends to improve conditions, helps to make better citizen ship.
 The man or woman who interests him. self or herself in the welfare of the people, either in securing better homes, better schools ,playgrounds and innocent amuse- ments, is helping to make better men and women of the boys and girls. The man or woman who takes an inter est in housing, in seeing that the best pos sible living conditions are provided for all the citizens, is thereby helping to make of his or her home town a better place to live in.
 The helper is the person who earnestly and honestly tries to banish crimes and disease and poverty by bringing about healthful conditions economically, mor- ally, socially and industrially.f
 As the South Highland minister said "help'' is very ordinary, common place word, but with the proper settings it is an inspiring word.
 In Birmingham there are number of things that might be changed to the ad- vantage of the city and the people if the citizens would lend a helping hand The streets should be made cleaner, the parks and play grounds should be made better, and beautified; there should be more and better equipped schools; better lighted streets; musical organization that would give high class concerts or symphonies; public utilities run more in the interest of the people; z. little fresh paint occasion ally; an auditorium, which however, now seems certainty within year or so, and many other things that might be enum- erated.
 All of these things and many more that would add to the comfort and convenience of the citizens, and attract strangers, could and WOULD be secured for Bir- mingham IF the people would become "helpers' in the cause of Birmingham
