grounds Nothing. then, Is to prevent the city from being hospitable to conven- tions and thus bringing new life and new ideas to the citizens. But no one would enjoy a city that was controlled by dis honest men. The good citizen must Vote only honest men into office. and must try to influence others to Note for honest men and to discourage all others. The good citizen must also bring as much bus mess to his city as possible. Commercial power is always reckoned in the stand ing of a city and it is only the combined power of the citizens.
 How are these citizens trained for e1is service? One of the determining factors of a mans life is his surroundings If man keeps evil company. little is to be expected of him in building a city. How
 ever, if a man is reared in 8 Christian at, mosphere and is trained Co be active n church work, he win, in all probability, make a great success of his life, for, ''I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me-" Religious training usually signifies good home surround iugs. Virtuous parents encourage their children in all good works. The better the home the better the education of the children. Education above all things make good citizens. Every city has it's school system. This is free to those
 who want 1t and a very good education may be obtained in the high schools. Of great imp, rtance in educational work are
 the public libraries. Here anyone can read as much as he likes and any subject he desires. Of course. the daily newspapers help us by keeping us in

 relation to it. Therefore we see that education is the foundation of all aTi- vancement, social and political. in the cit- 1eu

 Before they bought anything else during-the past day or two, the citizens called for that chocolate candy and they wiped the shelves clean of it the first day

pense of ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of many descriptions may be wonderfully benefited by following the simple rules. Here is the prescription: Go to any active drug store and get bottle of Bon-Opto tablets Drop one Bon-opto tablt in fourth of glass of water and allow to dissolve. With this liquid bathe the eyes two or four times perceptibly right from the start and inflan- nation will quickly disappear. If your eyes are bothering you, even a little, take steps to save them now before it is too late. Many hopelessly blind might have been saved if they had cared for their eyes in time.
 NOTE: Another prominent Physician to whom the above article was submitted said Bon Opto is a very remarkable remedy Its constituent ingredients are well known to eminent eye specialists and widely prescribed by them. The manufacturers guarantee it to strengthen eyesight 50 per cent in one weeks time in many instances or refund the money. It can pe obtained from any good druggist and IS one of the very few preparations feel should be kept hand for regular use in almost every family" It is sold in this city by all good druggists.

 Philadelphia, Pa.-Do you wear glasses Are you a victim of eye strain or other eye weaknesses If so. you will be glad to know that according to Dr. Lewis there is real hope for you. He says neglect causes more eye troubles and poor sight than any other one thing. Many whose eyes were failing say they had their eyes restored through the principle of this wonderful free prescription. One man says after trying it: T was almost blind could not to read at all Now I can read everything without any glasses and my eyes do not water any more. At night they would pain dreadfully now they feel fine all the time. It was like miracle to me" A lady who used it says: The atmos- phere seemed hazy with without glasses, but after using this prescription for fifteen days everything seems clear. can even read fine print without glasses" It is believed that thousands who glasses now discard them in a reasonable time and null ttudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared the trouble and ex-

SECOND PRIZE, SIDNEY ADAIR
 The word builder instantly conveys picture of strong, husky man, capable of constructing some substantial work by manual labor; but builder of good cit izenship need only be strong enough in his love for his city to work for the common good of all. Figuratively speak ing, this love is the builders foundation stone. As in the parable of the house built upon the sand, no public institution can stand for long, unless it is founded on such love and service. The benefits of the city and those of it's inhabitants are identical Were it not for the inhabi- tants, there would be no city. and wAat
 it's residents desire, that shall their city have.
 If a builder loves the object of his labor he will take great pride in it. and see that there are no imperfect parts So, too, should this city be looked on by it's cri- zens who must protect it from all retard- ing influences. No dark, dirty streets to be carefully avoided where visitors are being shown the many advantages of Birmingham But this ideal condition can not be brought about in any sudden improvement campaign. It's effectiveness depends on the individual interest anc CO., operation of every man, woman and child. After all, civic pride is only the personal pride of all the residents combined. Therefore, if each individual feels respon- sible for the good appearance of his or Fher own property, the net result would be most pleasing. And the city govern ment, by means of the taxes, will see that the thoroughfares, lighting system And other public utilities are kept in condi- tion
 But the appearance of Birmingham should only be an outward sign of a prosperous, we'll organized city. All citi- zens should take a kten interest in the development of all it's natural resources, but at the same time variety of smarer industries should be encouraged, as no city should limit its production entirely to one article. Also, it is every person s duty to patronize the local dealers, who in turn shall carry sufficient and satisfac- tory stock. Thus. cooperation will brfng about mutual benefits.
 But love and pride in the appearance and upkeep of the city, combined with a Birmingham First" business policy, are not the only requirements necessary to developinf good citizen. He must be intelligent and capable of viewing broad mindedly the conditions and needs of <-.r- mingham. The greatest citizen builaer is the public schools. Here children form their first ideas and learn what is expe, /- ed of them when they reach years of .fe-
 sponsibility. Consequently, the higher the schools standards. the better and mere
 progressive the city. It is important { then that the schools emphasize co-op9 a.
 tion and community spirit. All church and civic societies are great factors. in producing community spirit and athl.- ,s. places for which should be provided 's y the city, stimulate a feelisg of fellows ship and common interest. A child brought up to consider the community
 needs above those of the individual Gan not fail to be an asset to his city

 Every resident of a city is a citizen, but the good citizen is an interesting character. In the first place the good citizen is not mere resident. for his city dwells in his thoughts. Never does he allow his city to remain in the same rut. It must advance. For this purpose ths good citizen is always keenly alert t- all defects and faults about him. But seeing defects will not help much Rem edying these faults is his noblest work In order to do this he must have good mind. he must be clear thinker, and he must have live. wide-awake ideas In all his actions he must be moved by strong civic pride, a love of his OCT home. But one man could do nath4ae alone He must work together with n7a fellow citizens. Concerted action by rnrrys~ bers of civic organisations will certal-f lift up a city. Also the man is heIrih himself while he is helping his city rsny not have his city the best. for he rut live in the city and the better the eifs the better for him and his family.
