Mission Services Daily at Church of Our Lady of
 Sorrows

The mission conducted by Father F.. A. Maher of the Dominican order was formally opened at the church Of our Lady of Sorrows yesterday at the ID o'clock mass. In opening the mission Father Maher spoke impressively on grace as the means to salvation, ana urged all the Catholics of the parish to attend every service during the mis- sion. Father Maher said in part:
 We see the streets of Birmingham decorated with flags and banners in honor of the returning heroes. God bless the soldiers. God bless the young men who sacrificed their time, some Of them their lives. They deserve all they are going to get People are going to make sacrifices for them. They are go- ing to do it willingly and with good spirit.
 Did it ever dawn upon you that the very first one to die for democracy, the very first one to lay down his life, the very first one to pay the supreme sac rifice to make this world free, to make I this world a decent place in which 10 ! live; the very first one was our Lord i and Savior, Jesus Christ. He shed his l hearts blood for the very same reason that many of our dear boys gave their life on the battlefelds of France, in |, order to make this world a better place in which to live in, and in order that we may save our immortal souls. He is -lthe first one who gave up his life, every drop of his blood, for us
 "So I ask you then, do not refuse him. Do not refuse to make the mission. Make the mission for Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and for the sal vation of your immortal soul Behold now is the acceptable time! Behold, now the day of thy salvation is at hand. And remember, there is only one thing really necessary in this world and that is to save our immortal soul"

LANES RUBBER co.
 BUILDS OWN CITY

The very latest word in mill villages, which will be second to none in the country, is to be developed by the Hanes tires, around the site of it's tire plant just north of Winston Salem, N C. The project, which is being planned and di- rected by Lockwood. Greene & Co.,, of Boston. contemplates an immediate ex- penditure of about $300 600 this spring.
 The plans show beautifully laid off city, not in the customary square block style, but with wide, sweeping, curved streets and parks and public squares. All traffic arteries lead to two main cen- ters. the big plant itself, which is to be easy of access from every section of the village, and the village center in the residential section. There are to be erected 300 modern 5-room bungalows,
 each to be fitted with all modern con veniences. including water, sewer, cleo tric lights and bath, and each to be To-
 cated on lots with frontage of 80 feet and ranging from 125e to 175 feet in depth, giving the occupants ample space for vegetable and flower gardens and play grounds for the children. The bunga-
 lows are each to be a distinct type of architecture, giving varied and attrac- tive appearance and avoiding the mon- OtOily ana SdWencSS FuSudlfy cudTdtleTlS- tic of mill developments Several apart ments or boarding houses are also to be constructed for single men and women who might get employment in the plant.
 A modern school building, in which an eight months term will be provided, and
 a home for the district nurse in connec- tion with medical dispensary, are to be
 built at once, while conveniently located lots are reserved for churches and Sun day schools A community dairy barn and stock yard, and community wood and coal yard are to be unique features of the village. An ample water supply is to come from seven artesian wells.
 Work on the big development will start as soon as final plans are arranged and before long the growing number of Hanes employees will be living in their new homes. The decision to make this huge expenditure is the outcome of the steadily increasing demand for the widely known Hanes tires, the company deciding to lay the foundations now for the widespread expansion that soon will be necessary.
