OLD LAND MARK
AT BIRMINGHAM
Mill Chimney Built in 1851 Was
Eighty-five Feet High, Contain
ing 5000 Brick, Now
Torn Down.

Birmingham Enterprise: Wednes-
day OF last week the old mill Chin
ney owned by Sam Arbaugh, one of
the oldest landmarks Of the town.
was thrown down, and the brick is
being utilized for building purposes,
and in few weeks will be thing
of the past. We have tried to get
correct history of this chimney and
have succeeded to some extent, as
few OF the old settlers are still
among US who remember some of the
details.
This chimney was built in 1851 by
Abel Bott and John Gwinn in con-
nection with the sawmill at that
time, and was eighty-five feet high
and contained S5 ZOO brick. In a talk
with Foster Anderson, few years
before his death, he told US he helped
burn the brick at the kiln situated
on what is known as the Glotfelty
farm, Just northwest of town, and he
gave US all the details, but as we
never expected to live to see the
time when the chimney would be
torn down, we made no particular
note of it. Along between 1875 and
! 1880, the chimney wass leaning to-
wards the west, and man by the
name of Davis (nicknamed Hickory
! Davis constructed ladder on the
inside of the chimney to the top Of
it, and twenty feet was taken off.
Last year it seemed to lean more
and Sam Arbaugh took off number
of feet. AS it still leaned consider
ably and people would tell Sam it
would fall down some day, and as he
had no further use for it, he decided
to throw it over. About ten feet
from the bottom he cut into the
chimney from the south, and had to
cut over three-fourths through be-
fore it would bulge, and then it took
some force to throw it over to the
south, so there never was danger of
it falling over with it's own weight.
The chimney was built by man
by the name of Berry, and it is a
story, or tradition handed down
from generation to generation, that
the day he finished his work he
stood on the top Of the chimney on
one leg and drank a pint of whisky,
probably to christen it.
A large grist mill was built here,
north of the sawmill-we can't just
learn the date-and people came here
for miles in the early days with their
grist, sometimes having to stay sew
eral days before their turn came. In
1854 the raill burned down, which
was rebuilt at once and is the build
ing that stands here now, being built
by Lloyd Moss. In about 1852 a
wooden mill was added to this build
ing and was owned by Lloyd Moss
and D. G.. Crauer, and for a number
of years manufactured cloth and
yarn. carded wool and drew trade !
from large territory. The mill will
be torn down in a short time and will |
be thing of the past, but it will |
hardly seem like Birmingham with !
the old chimney and building gone. !

DAUGHTER OF
ACUINALDO IN
u. S. CAPITAL
She Meets Many Wives of Amer
lean Statesmen and
Makes a Hit.

When General Emilio Aguinaldo was
leading the Filipino army against the
American forces twenty years ago he
probably little dreamed that some day
a daughter of his would visit the city
of Washington and would be given
great reception at the famous Con
gressional Club And that the wives
of 120 members of the American Con-
gress and two wives of members of the
Presidents cabinet would call upon
her to pay their respects!
But all this actually happened when
Miss Carmen Aguinaldo, his nine teen-
year-old daughter, visited Washington
recently. And those wives of the Am
erican statesmen expressed themselves
as both charmed and surprised at the
refined, +actful, college educated young
miss who greeted them.
Miss Aguinaldo was simply delight
full" was the expression of one con-
CHEESEMAN'S wife, "She was very mod
est, yet she acted SO natural and thor
The daily morning oasis., 1920-02-15

oughly at home that she captivated ev-
erybody."
On another occasion while in Wash
in,ton Miss Aguinaldo was given real
ovation by Filipino-American audi
ence when she recited "My Last Fare
WE'LL" poem of DIR. Jose Rial, the Fill
ipino martyr.
Miss Aguinaldo is student at the
University Of Illinois, Urbana, Ill
While in Washington she was the
guest OF Mrs. Jaime G. deVeyra, wife
Of one of the resident commissioners
from the Philippines. The Capitol
building and the Congressional library
appealed particularly to the young
Filipino, while the beautiful sights
from the Washington monument thrill
ed her with delight. When asked how
she liked America, she smiled and an
swered:
at is a wonderful country. l didn't
like winter at first, but since l have
learned how to skate / am having fine
times. All the Americans whom l have
met have been very good to me. My
friends in Urbana and my classmates
in the university are just lovely but
cannot help feeling homesick at times
because / am missing my father. My
coming here was indeed a great sacri-
fee for him, for we are very close. He
is so good to me"
Miss Aguinaldo is intensely patriotic.
She does not conceal her resentment
when she hears or reads of miSrepre-
sentation of the Filipinos. 1T is I'M
fortunate" she once exclaimed in a
voice full of sadness, that my country
and my people are hardly known, much
less understood, by the people of Am
erica"
Politics is tabooed in any converse
ton with this Filipino maid. She
evades the topic by replying that she
is too young to express opinions on
things political "All | can say" she
declares, sis that 1 share with my
father in the desire for indepe ndence
for my native land. There is no ques-
ton about our being able to govern
ourselves"
Filipinos declare Miss Aguinaldo has
genuine Filipino temperament'-
that is, she does not believe in the oc-
cidental custom of dates" between
young men and women. She does not
see anything wrong in it, she says. but
it is such a violent departure from the
custom in the Philippines that she can
not adopt it.
"You might laugh at me-" she said,
but l cannot go out with one single
escort unchaperoned. 1 simply can't.
will go back to my country with the
soul of Filipino"
A newspaper in one of the large Am
erican cities that Miss Aguinaldo visit
ed expressed the opinion that she
would no doubt be greatly impressed
by the sight Of street cars and some OF
the fine residences she would see, but
the truth Is the young lady was raised
ia Manila, where she has seen an up
tS-date street car system all her life.

NEW FASHIONS FOR
THE SPRINGTIME MAID
By Margaret Robe

\WflLCon Tor Cne OnlCoQ fr0SS.)
NEW YORK, February 49, The
Springtime maid is all mixed up DER
what she is to be, because the ia
shions seem to show so much diver
sity. Some say wasp waists and hips
are chic while others do opine we
will adhere to straight effects and
cling to length of line. That vital
question-length of skirts still up
in the air. Most of the smartest
skirts are, too, you see the models
wear. And yet goodly portion
cling about the ankles prim and with
their Turkish trouser drapes conceal
the well-turned limb.
Then there's the footnotes of the
mode, milady's dainty shoe. Some
still insist the long sharp vamp our
insteps step into but more and more
on every hand anR every foot also
one sees the snub nosed French short
vamps go tripping to and fro. For
many seasons they have tried to get
toehold here. That they have won
by many feet it really does appear.
Quite irrespective of your feet, it
sort of seems to me, the shape of
shoes the keynote of your tempera-
ment may be. If you elect the mar
row path most decorous to tread,
of course, you wear narrow shoe,
sharp pointed; if, instead, along the
broad highway of joy you archly
wish to skip, a short broad vamp your
high arch foot will greatly aid to
trip. They come in most ornate eff
fects with lavish straps and bows with
three inch heels as high-almost-
prices, goodness knows.
Of fabrics for the Springtime wear
some say the best are plaids. Hoot
mon the tartan flaunts supreme for
grown ups or for tads. In serge, in
taffeta or wolfe in bingham, crepe de
chine, in gay or neutral colors, all
sorts of plaids are seen. When you
have seen their chic display you're
sure you'll be. in bad as feminine
Beau Brummells if you don't go in
for plaid.
And then another faction in man.
ner temperamental DEGREES the motifs
of spring stuffs is all the Oriental.
Morocco and Algeria, far China and
| Japan with a dash of little Egypt
| make up the general plan of blended
hues harmonious designs distinct and
quaint that from all other fabrics
these differentiate. The most of
them have backgrounds of neutral
beige or gray on which gay ships go
sailing or birds and beasties play.
Fans, bowls of fruit or landscapes
these quaint designs depict. You'll
be moving picture when in this
stuff you're tricked.
From Serbia, Roumania and other
Balkan spots have come designs and
colorings of reds and blues, oh lots.
Just like the peasantry out there our
gentry will be decked. When thus
dressed up it may be hard ones
status to. detect
But what is to be gathered from
this conflict of the modes when to
extremes Dame Fashion her apeing
slavelings goads? Well, really, the
deduction that seems quite plain to
me is "Be a bit of everythin to be LEI
