Local Merchants Take Pride in
 Fixing Up Their Saturday Displays
By JOHN c. MOSES

By JOHN
 Some of the best displays in many Saturdays will be found on Birmins- ham stands today. Merchants seem to be putting extra touches to their tail end sales of late, and no market places in the south can boast of better lay outs.
 I don't think there was frost enough to do any damage Thursday night, so the local gardens still give promise.
