AUBURN

Auburn, February b. (SpeclaL) )- One of the disadvantages of life in a small town where newspaper tacfll- ties are lacking, is the inability to quickly disseminate news ot any character among its citizenship. From time immemorial this need has been uniquely met in Auburn by using the show windows of merchants as medium for display of college notices, all .sorts of meetings and even tele- graphic news It has thus been the custom for a citizen to read his morn ing paper, as it were, from the snow windows he passed on his way for the morning mail.
 Recently, however, a new method or publicity has been adopted, which IS proving an advantage over the old' and in no way diminishes the Value to a merchant of his attractive show window. A large community bulletin board" has been erected through the iniatiye of the Woman's Club or Au- burn. at the side of Jolly's store, corner of Main and Magnolia avenues, upon which an authorized official, letters all notices for the college and town generally The board is at least SIX feet high by twelve long and is divided into three sections for news items, l. e. College News; Woman's Club of Au- burn and Auburn Civic Association.
 sAs an indication of the field of use fitness covered, the board now con tains the following notices;
 College News-Band practice, 800 D. m. sharp, today.
 IaGrange High School vs Auburn High School. Basket ball 200 p. m today.
 S:SO D. m. Seniors vs. Freshmen. foot ball. Drake Field. Be there.
 TOO D. m. picture show, Evangeline second show S:2O, Admission 10 and 15
 S:3O n m. Auburn Basket Ball vs Louisiana State University, gymnasium Saturday February IA.
 9:30 dance in gymnasium after basket ball, Saturday night.
 Womans Club-Saturday afternoon Children's story hour at library. i p. m Thursday afternoon, educational de- partment Care of Children" Talk by Miss Feminear
 Civic sociation-February meeting Monday night, February 16, Y. M. c. A rooms. 500 o'clock. Committee as signments. Vote for bond issue Mon day. Market farmers produce cheaper Improve living conditions in country Cheaper freight deliveries by truck be- tween cities.
 One may thus at a glance discover everything of importance in the parti cular field in which he may be inter ested.

Celebrated Fighter Will Organize a Correspond

 assuming the shape of Chicago
 alderman. szse celebrated speed mer-
 chant says he has given up
 thoughts of the ring and in the fU-
 ture will concentrate his attentions
 to business.
 What business? That's easy. Mike is going to teach boxing by mail. and until that business becomes large enough to claim all of his time he will look after his real estate holdings and perhaps speculate in the land game I've had my fling, and now I'm through" the genial Mike said several days ago.
 Gibbons is all business now. He has entered the game of editing his boxing course with the same pep and interest he always entered his battles in the ring with. There are wonderful possi- bilities in it." he said. T don't sup pose I can ever develop any world champions through a mail course, but I can teach a fellow the rudiments of self defense and no doubt can correct the faults of some of the lads who are trying to bang out living in the squared circle"
 Mike is not growing shapeless sim ply because he is taking on a lot of weight. Every day he devotes little time to the gym. His brother, Tom in- tenSs to continue in the sport, and Mike will assist in 'prepping'' him TOT his engagements Mike is shapely and he says he never felt better in his life. His skin has that healthful tint and glow. He is simply forgetting his weight. He is devoting his time to his interests acquired in the days when he was an active campaigner between the hempen strands.
 Like all the great pugs of the past, Gibbons has become disgusted with the grind of training. Constant vigilance regarding his diet and his weight have bored him to the point where he is glad to live like other human beings. And the phantom is not old. Next July he will celebrate his thirty-third birthday. "A fighter hasn't much chance after he passes the 30 mark" said Gibbons. l Then he launched into discussion of I the possibilities of teaching boxinG 1 tt rough Uncle Sam's mail.

UNIVERSITY

University, February 15.-(Special9-The cast for "A Woman's Way the spring production of the Blackfriar Players, the dramatic club of the University of Ala bama, was announced Friday night by Prof Hudson Strode, director of this or ganization. at a meeting of the members of the Sigma Nu House The Birmins- ham students who will take important parts in this play are: Armstrong Cory, Miss Sylvia Aird and kirkman Jackson.
 An Easter road trip for the Blackfriars is being mapped out by Gerry Cabaniee of Birmingham, business manager of the club, but he is not vet ready to an nounce the completed itinerary. Numer- ous requests are being received from performances which are being used by MT. Cabaniss in working out the sched- ule. It is practically certain at least one performance will be given in the Magic City.
 Besides the Birmingham students who Monnsh, in her charming manner, will play the Grace George part of "A Wom- 1 ans Way" Miss Monnish has demon strated her dramatic talent before. and ] it is believed that a wise selection has 1 been made in choosing her for the lead iing part. The leading man will be Bert
 Macintyre of Selma Mir. Macintyre, who i served three years during the war in
 the famous Black Watch, in his peculiar Scottish mannerisms gives a desirable
 flavor to the play. Perhaps an equally I important part will be taken by Willard Mccall of Montgomery. who recently starred in a one-act comedy given at the university.
 l Other students who will have parts 1T | the play are Francis Inge of Mobile, Miss Gertrude Pride of Uniontown and Miss | Carolyn Montgomery of ,Asheville. The 1 player for one part has not been decided 1 upon by MT. Strode.

BUSINESS MAN TELLS CLERKS HOW
 ID KEEP ALERT

A prominent business man recently revealed the secret of his vibrant, physi- Ical alertness.
 q learned years ago. said he, that Indoor people do not get sufficient oxy lgen and outdoor action to keep the liver active and keep the bodily poisons thrown off.
 ''When the liver is allowed to go to lsleep, bodily poisons accumulate. physi- cal resistance gets low. mental sharp hess becomes blunted, your step drags, lyou get sluggish and tire easily. colds land all manner of ills get an easy hold lon you..
 '"The best way to keep physically alert and healthy is to take Barbacals, a highly effective but gently acting tab let of Rhubarb and refined calomel."
 They do not sicken or gripe. You can get a large box of Barbacals from your druggist for 35 cents and if they do not give you the finest kind of satisfaction your money will be promptly refunded. Be sure to say the name -Barbacals.--Adv.

 The only setback that Burke suffered was in his bout with George Chip Sone time before entering the ring Burke suf- fered an accident to his chest He as sumed that the fracture had cured But in the fight with Chip the latter butted into Rurke's chest and broke again the imperfectly mended fra cure. Burke went along for seven rounds more with the bones pressing against his lungs and then he gave in. An N-ray examination was made of his chest and the physicians stated that it was a miracle for man utes after suffering such an injury. Marty Burke took long rest afte~wari until the fracture was mended entirely. He plans to resume battling within the next month or two.

FALSE ISSUE IN

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 Noticing in the Gadsden Times-News an elaborate and very lengthy statement of Judge H. B. Foster, campaign mana ger of Col. l.. E. Musgrove. wherein the Judge lauds his candidates ability, fit ness, ideals and spotless virtues along with many other good things said and unsaid, was rather strilSingly impressed with. the fact that the main issue in his elaborate platform or long drawn out statement, was the much footed prohi-
 bition question
 It is a known fact that the ardent ad-
 vocates of prohibition maintained all along that if they could and did sue ceed in getting the amendment written into the United States constitution, that the whiskey question would evermore be settled, that henceforth it would not be an issue in any campaign: and that the candidates would make the race solely on their merits. Now if this isn't taking
 "back-water' and catching at a straw. so | to speak. would like for some one who happens to be informed. to explain why :? As to the ability of the two edndidates Mr. Musgrove and MT Underwood re- garding their fitness as representatives or the people-gained by experience-and the welfare of the government, there is no comparison. To insinuate that Mir. Musgroye has or will ever have the ability of Mir. Underwo ood. to handle the affairs of the people, is an insult to the 1 Intelligence of the legal voters of Ala bama. It's an impunity. a traversity and | reflection on our, civilization and our ] ideals. It reflects on the sincerity and | good judgment of the masses of people of i our commonwealth. To sanction such
