1t wasn't until the day after Anthony
Norreys and his 'job' crossed my path
that I realized how tremendously Sc
rious Jim was about his great chance
to help Terry" My boy insisted on
getting up bright and early and on
having Neal start him on the study Of
bookkeeping and accounting before that
brother of mine went Off to work.
ITS like this-if Terry needs me to
help out his friend and release an able

Jim was too generous to feel be-
Titled at the thought of taking on a Job
that had been offered to Neal-this was
clear. The only thing that wasn't clear
was a remark I overheard Neal make
to him:
"Of course, Jim, this work Is far too
important for me- anyway but you
understand / might try to whack at it
while you're mending-only I'm clear

when you didn't mind nly-my trying
to be friends with Phoebe last night
and taking her home and ALL"
With a start, l remembered the Sc

secret about which l had vowed never
to ask. But l hadn't vowed never to
puzzle about 1t.

The filming of these scenes, interior
and exterior. required much time, large
number Of extras. the construction Of
complicated sets, and the use Of Dig in
dustrial plants, where some of the scenes
were taken.
Much of the work was done at night.
One interior scene depicts the Office Of
the munitions plant.
The crash of the explosions in va
rious parts of the plant wrecks the Office
completely.
Miss Barbara Castieton, in the role Of
Audrey Valentine remains in the Office,
and, with wreckage falling all about her,
operates the switchboard and sends for
help.
She narrowly avoided Injury, when the
scene was taken, heavy timbers and pill
lars topping close to her.
Explosives OF much force were used
in the picture. Some of the scenes were

REAL ESTATE
QUERIES
CONDUCTED BY
TIMES REAL ESTATE EDITOR.

I have been in my present location
for about eight years, my landlord
paying my water rent Could he
compel me now to pay my water
rent. And could he raise rent on
me by months notice or if not by
law how long a notice will he have
to give me. 1. NJ. P.
At the end of the eight year he
could raise your rent, but he must give
you written notice ninety days before
the end of the year If he does not
do so you are entitled to the possession
of the property for another year upon
the same terms and conditions as they
exist now.
The same conditions pertain to your
water rent, as the change in that would
effect your rent.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Keen Parks Where They Are

To the Editor of The < ge-Herald:
 In your paper of this date, July 31, see that movement has been in- augurated by the Civitan Club to re- lieve our city commissioners of the care and responsibility of the management of our city parks, The suggestion or fered is that one member from each of the civic organizations of Birmingham compose a committee or board that will have complete charge of all parks in our city, including East Lake.
 There may be, and doubtless are,
 reasons for the existence of our various
 civic organizations, but these organl- zations should labor and perform their services within their own restricted and
 legitimate spheres. Probably where
 there is one citizen member or one
 of these civic organizations, there are
 thousands who are not affiliated with any of them, and, as one who is not affiliated with any of these organiza- tions, r protest most heartily at any part of our government being rele- gated to the Civilians, Knights of Co., lumbus or any other civic, ecclesiastical or political club.
 There doubtless are men of ability in all of the civic associations, put
 though they had men among thelr membership, men who had the leader ship Of Moses ana the WlSuoiu oA @OAo- mon, nevertheless, they should not De permitted to usurp any power of gov ernment, or discharge any of the duties incumbent upon elective officers.
 Boards and commissions that are not elected by the people and not responsl- ble to the people are not democratic and should have no place in demo- cratic government. Such boards tend to autocracy and tyranny.
 I dare say that a large number or the members of the Civilians and other like civic bodies which are suggested
 for taking control of our city parks a ready have their golf links and coun-
 try clubs provided for their own amuse- ment, and to place our parks in the control of such organizations might forestall the uses for which these parks and places of amusement. now owned by the city, were intended. No body of men should be granted any authority to engage in the management of the affairs of our city unless they have been chosen by our people, according to democratic custom.
 Our city commissioners are the elected servants of all our citizens and
