 Montgomery Bureau The Age Herald
 22i-2 First National BanS Building

Montgomery, June l.-NSpeclal)- Thcmas Bragg. for many years manager of athletic activities of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute, will terminate his connection with the institution July |, under a resolution adopted by the board of trustees Monday afternoon.

It is recalled that certain students in a public meeting at Auburn adopted resolution calling for the resignation of MT. Bragg, and forty-eight hours later the same students in an other public meeting cancelled the pre- vious resolution. It is also remembered that MT. Bragg, as president the Auburn Alumni Association, mace fight during the spring against the election of Will liam F. Feagin as president of the ln- stitution Much bitter feeling was brought into the fight for and against MT. Feagin.
 Mr Bragg has held a position with the institution since he graduated. In the faculty he was an instructor in chem istry, but his important work has been the promotion of the colleges athletic activities.

Church Advertising
 Discussed By Admen
 Attending Convention
Delegates Take Time Off to Help Indianapolis Celebrate Centen- nial With Parade Depicting
 Growth of the City
Rv Associated Press


 Indianapolis, June 7.-Delegates to the convention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, after busy day, took time off tonight and helped Indian apolis celebrate it's centennial with a pa Mde depicting the growth of the city from lone log cabin in 1920 to it's present population of 31419i.
 Sectional meetings were held during the afternoon. One of the largest attended was on church advertising. William C.. Freeman, of New York, declared there was no merchandise like that which the church had to offer, and when the church advertises it is certain to achieve splendid results. Merll Sidener. of h. dianapolis. said the big fault of the church today is that it is not sufficiently aggressive "It has the goods, but il has never told the world about them, Mir. Sidener declared.
 A. c. Parson. of New York. addressing the business paper section, declared tha: it was only in rare cases that the greater use of advertising recently has been raised upon the idea of investing funds in advertising rather than paying gov ernment taxes. The impor tance of adver- Using during the war brought about the increase, he asserted.
 Poster advertisers were told by sam uel W. Holiday, of New York, that a successful poster should be simple ant bold in design, brief in text, understood

It was his point that the delegation was not awaiting the arrival of the band wagon, but would continue to vote it's convictions.
 Mir. Street said: "The statement that voted to seat the negro delegation from Georgia is without foundation. I favored the seating of the Pickett dele- gation."
 The Pickett delegation. incidentally, was composed of seven negroes as delegation, which in the main won out, seven whites.
 Continuing, Mir. Street said: "The dec laration that the Alabama delegation would be divided until the convention drift is ascertained and that then the delegation would present practically solid front in favor of the strongest candidate utterly misrepresents my atti- tude'
 Therefore, there will be no band wagon riding. or practically solid voting on the part of the Alabama delegation.
 The Alabama delegation, in caucus this afternoon. elected c. B. Kennafner of the Seventh district chairman and spokesman of the delegation. O. D. Street of the Seventh district was re- elected national committeeman.
 It was determined that when the roll of states for nominations is called, Alabama will simply pass rather than yield to Illinois for the presentation of Governor Lowden, as was expected This is great disappointment to Gov ernor Lowden.

Ten Years Nun3erThan His Years

Doesn't it make you feel good-cause you to straight en up and feel "chesty"- when someone guesses your age at ten years or SO younger than you really are? You look into your mirror, smile with satisfac- tion and say to yourself: 'Well, he didn't make such a bad guess, at that"
 The point is: You're no older than your vitality.
 If a man is strong, vigor- ous, mentally alert, fine and fit at 50 he has a better chance of living up to 30 than a man of 30 who is weak and rundown has of living up to 60. While none of us can stay the years nor stop time, we should all make an heroic effort to suc- cessfully resist the effects of time by ever keeping our vitality at par.
