COMMUNITY SING AT CAPITAL PARK
New Sing Leader Conducts Sing at
 Jefferson Theatre

With two singers from Montgomery on the programme and under the leadership of Hollis c. Davenny of Washington, D. C., the last indoor community sing was held yesterday at the Jefferson theatre.
 Mrs. c. Guy Smith, contralto, and Mrs. Holley Cowherd, soprano both of Mont somery sang duet. "The Passase Birds Farewell" which was enthusias- tically received. These two visitors have been in Birmingham during the past week to sing at the Tutwiler hotel.
 Hollis C. Davenny. who is well known as song leader and soloist. was here to direct the sing. He also, sang three solos as @ feature of the programme. It has been decided to hold all future community sings in the outdoor audi torium at Capital Park, now that warm weather is here From next Sunday IIii- til cool weather comes again the sings will be held in the open air. This will, 1t is thought, add greatly to the com fort of those who attend the sings, and is hoped to be the means of attracting larger crowds

BOARD ID AWARD
 CONTRACTS FOR
 PAVED HIGHWAYS
Board of Revenue and Ad- visory Board to Consider Bids on 9 Main Roads
 Leading to City

Contractors from number of surround ing states will be in attendance this morn- ing at 10 O clock when the board of rev. enue meets to award road contracts amounting to approximately $l,5oo,0oo. At this meeting the board of revenue and the advisory committee of business men will resume the consideration of the bids roads leading into Birmingham. The bids on this work were received last Wednesday.
 At a special meeting of the board held Thursday afternoon a partial report was made by s. R. Batson, county highway engineer and contracts for $455000 worth of grading work weer let by the board. The figures on the paving work were not completed until 4 o'clock Friday after noon when they were submitted to the board and the committee. The work of going over these figures was not com pleted Friday night and the letting of the contracts was postponed until today.
 All of the road to be paved under the proposed contracts will be of permanent material. They will all be paved with a heavy concrete base with bituminous or other wearing surface. The bids cover wide variety of standard paving ma- terials including several kinds of bitum- inous materials and brick.
 The biggest piece of work to be let by the board is the North Ressemer road, which is twelve miles long and will cost approximately $4S0.000. The South Bes- semer road will be paved for distance of two miles beginning at Popular street and Tuscaloosa avenue This work will taI,r x.rill piN .a two paved roads to Bessemer. A portion of the South Bessemer road is being paved under contracts let last fall. Tho work on these two roads will give two paved highways from Birmingham to Bessemer, which will bear heavy per. centage of the traffic from Birmingham west.
 Traffic conditions will be greatly re- lieved by the paving of the Eighth avenue road to Ensley. which forms another of the projects to be let today. This work will cost approximately s16o0 GOO and will split the traffic between Birmingham and Ensley the majority of which now goes over the Third avenue road, which Is Q part of the North Bessemer road.
 The Leeds highway is to be paved for three miles beginning at Woodlawn and extending through Gate City and Iron dale. This work will cost sum of s12o,- 600 and will relieve traffic to the east
 Another project includes the paving of the Mount Pinson road from the end of the Norwood boulevard to Inglenook, a distance of two and a half miles al cost of si00.00o. This will connect up with paving which is now being put down un' der contracts awarded in the fall.
 Other roads which will be paved include the Jasper Highway. five miles costing s16O, 600: Ensley to the junction of the Mulga and Docena roads, two and half miles. costing s190.O00; and the water works road, or Coumbiana road from Milner Heights to the pumping station, seven miles, costing S140,O00

LETTER TO EDITOR
Reply to Anniston Star
the Editor of The Age-Herald

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 The editor of the Anniston Star must know that one and doubtless many are antagonistic to the big-bore which he. made on his accused "small-bore poli- Medicine of Alabama)
 Of course, he did not do this without help, but I do not have to go to Mont gomery or elsewhere to get my informa- tion to reply. I have always stooa bs legislation for the educational insutu- ticns of the state. While at presest. ev- erything tends to contradictions both au- thoritatively and fundamentally. men of authority, to properly perform their func- tion, ought to be trying to secure dona- tions and appropriations for the aoove stated institution, instead of studying personal prestige, regardless of who it may hit. big or little. It's the principle involved and not the individuals we are after.
 The alumni of the School of Medicine only number about 900 in the state But don't think, MT. Star Man, that the re- cent actions of the president of the uni versity and board of Trustees does not warrant and will not be protested These 'small-bore politicians" as you refer to them, are not asleep.
 Historic old Mobile is, and has been for years, the home of one of the best medi- cal institutions in the sttae. The war decidedly crippled the rchool of MeSi- cine. as it did many others, but if she could be retained, we would at once see her come back to her required mark with American medical schools Clinical fla cilities are ample. her location ideal, hos pitals and labatories well equipped The school is affiliated with some six hos pitals, has a free city dispensary in connection. The Charity Hosprar has in- cluded large lying-in department. The United States Marine Hospital located there gives facilities for tropical medi- cine with bedside instruction which can not be had elsewhere in the state No place can better instructors be found now we hope something may yet be done to retain this grand old School of Me6.- cine.
 While. if you would fall down stairs you must start at the top, so if we would have no recognized medical school of the state then we have acted wisely in dis continuing the Mobile school. But to re- move it to Tuscaloosa is only a small part, it has then to make good with American medical schools. and in no place in Alabama could this better be accomplished than in Mobile.

CITIZENS URGED ID
 AID AUTHORITIES
 IN CLEANING CITY
Clean Up Week" Starts To- day and City Officials Will Cooperate In ImprOv-
 ing Conditions
Cleanup Week is here!


 Beginning today, Birming- ham will have a week of most thorough cleaning and paint ing, according to officials of the city health department.
 The week of May 3 to 8 was selected as the best time of the year for this campaign by John R. Hornady, commissioner of health and Dr. J. D. Bowling, head of the city health depart ment.
 Commissioner Hornady explains what the people of the city are requested to do during the week.
 First, every family is requested to see that their premises are absolutely clean and free from trash and refuse. Every empty can lying in the yard or alley may become filled with water and form a breeding place for mosquitoes, the health officials say. A trip should be made under the houses to get all these cans and other refuse which serve to harbor germs. It is suggested that the inside of the houses might be given the srring cleaning during the week.
 Second, all the accumulated trash should be placed in a place where the city wagons may conveniently reach it. These wagons will be loaned for the week " Commissioner of Streets Burruss.
 After seeing that the houses and yards are clean, the third step will be to turn the attention to the barns and out buildings. Particular care should be taken in cleaning these buildings, which should be disinfected with lime or other material. If it is desired to make the buildings still more sanitary the city has arranged to furnish whitewash for this purpose free of charge.
 The city urges upon all house owners to do all painting which is contemplas0- in the near future during this week, sc that it might add to the attractiveness of thee ity. Painting is not only prac- tical from the standpoint of increasing the value of property by making it at tractive, but it also adds to the life of the building.
 If all this is done, Birmingham WIZ be much more attractive to the visitor passing over the city," said Commission Ter Hornady.
 The practice of setting aside a weel in every year to be designated as "Clean' up Week" is not a new oine in Birming' ham. This has been the custom fol several years But this year, all five de partments of thee ity government arc uniting to carry out the campaign 'ori a larger scale than ever before.
 The success of the week depends or the people themselves said Dr. J. D Bowling It remains to the people tt observe the week, and carry out our re- qrests.'

The Whole Secret of
A Better Tire
Simply a Matter of the Makers Policies
A Better

To ascertain what each maker
Offers ore must analyze and test
Some 200 tires-as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is a matter of combining
the best features and building &C
cording to the highest standards.
Once you try a Brunswick you
will understand how we have built:
model tires, regardless of factory
expense.
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the:
same as other like-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
our nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruins.
wick will tell you the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll.
agree, gives SO much for your:
money
Hermanner Volksblatt. [volume] (Hermann, Mo.) 1875-1928, 1920-08-27

This you will realize-once you
try a Brunswick-that a super-tire
is possible only when the name
certi6es that the maker is follow
ing the highest standards.
For tire making is chiefly a mat
ter of standards and policies-cost
plus care. Any maker can build a
good tire if he cares to pay per-
fection's price.
All men know Brunswick stand
ards, for Brunswick products have
been famous for "a years.
Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce
ments, plies and thickness are a
matter of expense. And these vari-
atoms affect endurance. It rests
with the maker how far he wishes
to go-how much he can afford
to give.
For there are no secrets nor pat
ents to hold one back.
