For once I am failing to attend the Southern Baptist convention" says pr. w. M. Blackwelder, former pastor of the West End Baptist Church, but now at the First Church of Huntsville.

It Is always a pleasure for me to visit Birmingham. for l served many years here. I am greatly enjoying my work in Huntsville.

 million people living within a mile of where I, had pitched my tent in White chapel Only those who have made pill grimages into this miserable section Of
 London can have any idea of its misery and squalor. I happened to be doing some sociological work in the East End
 during the Jack the Ripper outrages and know of it's horrors.
 Husband and wife resolved that poor, giddy, forlorn and disinherited people should become their people and their God
 as far as they were able to induce them to accept Him to become their God also.
 And for this end they faced poverty ana
 persecution and exulted to spend and be spent in the service of Christ, which is the service of humanity. The Booths entered upon their apostolic careers with l a zeal and enthusiasm that knew no bounds, and nothing that man could do
 had the power to slow them up in their ministry of love.

 conditions of men that by repentance to- wards God, and faith in His Son. you may find the cure of sin, and the strength to live lives of purity and unselfshness They say to the man sunken low in de-
 Him." and their converts are living wit
 nesses throughout the world to the power
 of Jesus to save.
 I am not magnifying the preach ing of the Salvation Army, for it breaches to approximately 1s,OOO.O00 persons at it's street meetings in the United States in a year, millions of whom never darken
 the door of a church. Instead of waiting Aoi peopie to come to cnurch, which nun
 dreds of thousands in eur great cities never do, the Salvationists take the church to the people. In this way it is rot in competition with the various de-
 nominations. but is suppiementing them in reaching the unchurched masses. sss
 I was recently greatly struck with the plea of Phillip Brooks, who after being elevated to the bishopric, in no uncertain tones warned the Episcopalians that they
 were in danger of being regarded as an exclusive kind of class among church people. and urged upon those in author ity to democratize its members; and in- stead of being proud of their exclusive
 ness to get off the fashionable or quite side streets down into the hurly burly
 of life amongtt the people. His great
 heart yearned and coveted for the church
 of his faith and order that it should be about the Masters business wherever
 there were men and women without the gospel
 Now, this is a holy aim for any church. and just because of it's neglect there was place for the salvation Arsay. and while for a long time even the evan- lgelical denominations rather looked on its

You see a Salvation Army lassie on the street corner in her bonnet, or one of the officers in uniform, and if you are a returned soldier there leaps into your hearts thanks for the service the men and women rendered in France. The Salvation Army has no warmer supporter than the doughboys who ate the doughnuts overseas, and this is why they are so enthusiastic in doing their bit to see to it that the drive now in progress shall go over the top in great shape.
 I confess that every time a Salvation place with tambourine in hand that felt that it took more courage to solicit n,ckels and dimes than it did for them to parade through the streets or stand on the town corners and sing. and pray
 and preach.

 The Salvation Army has been long hob bled with a large debt in spite of the | fact that no religious. or charitable oz ganization has ever been so economically
 administered or so faithfully served by officers and rank and file for such piti-

 the army worked and sweated under its

Jerry Gwin Congratulated

President Jerry Gwin of the board handsome vote in Tuesdays primary, has been busy receiving congratula- tions since the official result was an- nounced.
 Tt was the work of my friends" said MT. Gwin yesterday, because my time was so completely taken up with the work of the office sthat I was unable to see personally many of my friends. To all of them I want to express my gratitude. I shall continue to try to give the county all the service that is in me and to justify the expectations of those who used their votes and in- fluence to put me over the top.'

Seas of Mud

'I was not on the Mountain Terrace run on Wednesday night" says W. C.. Hatley, land I didn't get to see Motor man Goodman, but I am sure he had an awful mean night of it.
 T came on early Thursday morning and the downpour had forced seas of mud on the tracks. I had a hard time to get to the end of the line. Few peo- pie realize the force of water saw the condition of the street blocks in coming through town, but where the water comes dashing down Cliff road it had brought to the entrance to Moun- tain Terrace great pieces of cement pavement. The storm sewer on Claire mont avenue at several places was spouting like a whale, even as late as 9 o'clock on Thursday"

BOB FTNLAY AND HIS
CINEMA BATHING GIRLS

Often you have lost yourself in the
soothing quiet of the picture theatre
and while watching the film folk
have wondered what sort of people
they are in reality. and these same
picture people have thought OF you
and wish to become separated from
the inevitable shadow and appear be-
fore YOU I'm person. That wish is
about TO become an accomplished
fact in the case of a number of well
known scree fayorites. who will ap-
pear here at the Ely theatre tonight
and Monday.
Bob Finley. the Mack Sennett
comedian, and his Cinema Girls have
succeered in escaping from their
shadow cells, have said adieu for a
time to their spooky silent images
with a last backward glance In their
dressing room pier glasses, have
iioduCd Ofihk " nasty 6OOu-DlF

resented in Imply hanging costumes
gaily locked the old dressing con
doors and like a flock of parting

spective studios and are at this mo-

Finlay's unique and original re-
views.
Musical Comedy reviews are al
ways popular, and worth while
moving picture features equalIy So
Naturally then a programme that
combines the best features of each
type is a sure winner and it is This
sort Of combination that the Ely
theatre is Offering.
Mr.. Finlay, Chester Conklin and
the dainty Cinema Girls start the ball
rolling with their clever little screen
comedy, following which Bob and his
fair assistants appear in person to
delight all corners with their tabloid
song and dance review. The catchy
and and up-to-date are made even
more effective by Finlay's droll hu-
NOR and the dashing beach costumes
worn by the girls.
This is truly a wonderful holiday
attraction and will go far toward
making the Ely celebration one long
to be remembered.

ONE REAL WAR SONG
GEORGE NJ. Cohan Y

George M. Cohan Wrote It)
In a recent speech in the House Of
Representatives, Gen. Isaac Sherwood
the veteran Ohio congressman, de-
clared hat while during the Civil
War many stirring songs expressive
of the patriotic sentiment of the time
were developed, not one real war song
had been written in the United States
during the world wal.
General Sherwood has overlooked
the one real stirring song of the war,
George NJ. Cohan's cover There"
It was the only American song that
caught the spirit of the war and STIR
red the enthusiasm of the crowds. It
was filed with the "pep" and dash of
Americanism as it was displayed by
the U. S. fighting man. That one
song did more to stir up American en-
thusiasm and action than all the ora
tory and press agency output of the
war period, and was worth a division
of troops at the front.
When the war medals for non-com-
batants are passed out, George M.
Cohan, perhaps the most versatile and
dynamic figure in the executive de-
partment of the American stage. in
this generation, should not be for
gotten. He wrote a real war song
that set hearts to humping and feet
to marching, and, remarkable as this
seems, it was the only war song that
got anywhere in the United States
during the biggest wal in which Am
orleans ever engaged.
