General Bullard's Appointment

Tt was with genuine pleasure that read in The Age-Herald this morning that the President had nominated and the senate confirmed Robert l.. Bulard as major general said Ernest Redd General Bullard is an Alabamian, and until he went to the Mexican border three or four years ago visited Birming- ham on an average of once year. He has q great many friends in Birming- ham who have watched his army career with interest. none with greater appre- citation than the boys who were with him in the Third Alabama during the Spanish war. There were at least half dozen Birmingham boys who had com missions in that regiment and every one of them loved their commander as a brother.
 Among the Birmingham officers in the Third. in addition to myself, were the late R. Lee Tilghman, Ed Johnston, Bob Hagood W. J. Boles, Harris Vaughn, now prosperous lumber merchant of Mobile, and perhaps one or twos others Those of us still here are planning to give General Bullard a royal welcome when he visits us again.

# * * Many Lives Saved by Blood TransfusionS

THE COMEBACK, published by
 1 the soldier-patients of the Wal ter Reed general hospital, Washing ton, calls attention to a class of be- roes on this side of the water whose sacrifices gain little recognition.
 Last month at the Walter Reed there were 155 blood transfusions, men giving their blood freely that the lives of others might be saved The Comeback mentions one particular case where Senior Sergeant J. c. Will lis of Camp Meigs, District of Colum- bia, gave 900 cubic centimeters of his blood in one week, the blood being drawn at intervals four days apart.
 Sergeant Willis, it is said, has been in the army only about six months, yet he is the type of soldier who has <he stuff of heroes in him, although he never got to France. The silver ehevron is no disparagement. The man who wears it was denied his op- pCrtunity. That he would have borne himself ga1lant1y on the field of bat tie, had it been his lot to go there, cannot be questioned. Down in his heart he may feel that fate has served him an i'll turn, but the only reason why medals and decorations others wear don't adorn his breast is be- cause he was not given a chance to earn them. He served well in his D. pointed place. Let us honor him for that.

 and an Auditorium

e1NHE Masonic bodies of Birming- J ham own much valuable prop erty, and some day, perhaps in the future, they will erect temple suf- ficiently commodious to house all branches of the order.
 Besides many lodgerooms the build ing should include a public auditorium with seating capacity of three thou sand or thirty-five hundred. Such a project is now being considered, and it is hoped that it may be worked out curing the present year.
 An auditorium would supply a pressing need, and should the Masons decide to develop the plan suggested they would be hailed as civic benefac- tors as well as promoters of the fra ternal spirit.
 There is demand here for an audi toriuln with an eight or ten thousand seating capacity-a building adequate for accommodating mass meetings and great national conventions. In time the city must provide such a struc- ture.
 Tn the meanwhile a Masonic audi torium would be ample for music fes-

Well Known Prohibitionist
 Carries the War to France

! o6 o60OMEWHERE in Paris" the g Hon. L. Breckinridge Mus
 grove, Alabama's picturesque prohi-
 bitionist, is seeking the ear of Wood
 row Wilson, along with his fellow
 members of the Anti-Saloon leagues
 peace conference committee. Ostensi- 1 bly, they desire the President and del
 egates at the peace conference to pro- tect the hapless Polynesian, the
 Chinaman and the African from the 1 Demon Rum. As a matter of fact. more ambitious plans are afoot. Americas militant prohibitionists are ipaving the way to make the whole world dry and drive John Barleycorn from the face of the earth. Later on
 Europe, it is hoped, will be rent asunder by the strife of the "wets" and "drys,' the latter being given aid and counsel from America.
 But the Hon. "Breck" battling for prohibition in Paris, with which light hearted city he is passably familiar, is sight to give one pause A bon vivant, famed for 'possum dinners and lavish hospitality, he has never theless for many years carried the white banner and contributed freely lof his means to make the banquet
 board a mockery and the social drink a mere tradition. The average French man can't understand an American Iprohibitionist, anyhow. Much would he marvel at the Hon. "Breck" he only knew him better,
 Sojourning in that delightful city | by the Seine, who knows but that the
 Hon. "Breck" may find his drastic
 views somewhat modified? Who can
 be even mildly fanatical in the joyous atmosphere of Paris, where, in spite
 of the war, champagne flows freely,
 an excellent vintage at a moderate
 price, and Henri, the waiter, feels
 honored in serving a visitor from the Land of the Free?"
 Without questioning the purity of his motives, or his unyielding enmity to alcohol in any and every form, many an unregenerate Alabamian
 envies the Hon. "Breck" the "strate-
 gic position" he now occupies.
