The Bear Cats were plainly out

LEGION HELPS
SALVATIONISTS
IOFFICIALS OF ORGANIZATION
COMMEND FIGHTING SPIRIT OF
ARMY In WAR AND IN PEACE

Birmingham, Ala, May i1.-From
everywhere in Alabama officers and
members of the American Legion are
sending word to Birmingham head
quarters Of the Salvation Army in this
division Of their intention to aid. with
all their power in the work Of making
the Salvation Army Home Service APP
peal atsuccess.
Thomas Owen, Jr., acting department
adjustant of the American Legion for
Alabama, who is one of the executive
committee for the campaign in the
Montgomery zone, is quite enthusiastic
and outspoken in boosting the work.
Il feel it an honor and privilege to
help in any way possible this cause
which is foremost in the hearts Of so
many Americans and I believe that I
am voicing the sentiment of the Ameri-
can Legion as WE'LL writes Mr.. Owen.
In the great war, the example of
the Salvation Army. by it's spirit OF
democracy and patriotism, was a great
aid to the general morale of the ma
tons at war. 1t won first place, not
only in the eyes of the fighting legions,
but in the hearts Of those at home.
."This fighting spirit of the Salvation
Army, which inspires patriotism, will
be as much a part of the history of the
times as the great struggle. In peace
as well as war, the Salvation Army
governs its principles by the motto
Service to- all humanity
Otherwise than in the army, the
work of relief is given the suffering, of
which there are many good examples
here in the Alabama localities. For
Illustration, the aid which was given
the flood sufferers here in Montgomery
last December and yet more recently,
the aid given the storm swept sections
In Alabama. Mississippi and Georgia,
food, accommodations, clothing and
other articles being provided wher-
ever needed.
'The Salvation Army draws no line
because Of creed, sect. race or class dis
tionctions, giving comfort poverty
stricken and unfortunates as gener-
erously as it gives words of consola-
ton to staunch the wounds frequently
found in the homes of the rich"

Hero Day, japanese Fourth 0fJuly,
One OF UIorld's Greatest Boy Festivals
Ancient Warrior Legends Are
Revived Every Year at
Youngsters National Fete.

Especially for the youth OF Japan
has that part of the program Of the
tnterchurch World Movement. which
ieals with the Land Of the Rising
Sun, been formulated. During the
week of April rs to May 2 an inten-
sive canvass of America will be made
by representatives Of thirty denomi-
nations, who are cooperating under
the name of the Iuterchurch Move
ment. One out of every twenty per
sons in the United States is Ia the
army OF canvassers who will explain
the aims Of the churches and offer an
opportunity to members and friendly
citizens to assist in the world pro-
grams.
Such small sons Of Japan a. the
youthful celebrater Of Seklcu, the
festival of boys, are the hope of
christianity as the rising generation
can, if it will, put to route the forces
of superstition which are considered
religion in Japan. Accordingly Sekku
along with other national Gus
toms, has been studied in the survey
of Nippon made by the Interchurch
World Movement Of North America
because it concerns the boyhood Of
Japan, which is, in sense, the Japan
of the future. What the Protestant
churches Judge. then, as the first
needs in Japan are more Christian
missions, more schools and settle
meDts.
Already there are numerous Kin
q
by the American Baptist Foreign
Board, which are taking the young
est Of Japan's children and showing
a remarkable success in their train
ing. The boys and girls of school
age in the various stages Of progress
to maturity are tremendously inter-
ested in things occidental, but the
number who have any real oppor-
tunity is, SO far, a very small per
cent.

June 9, 1903, he was advanced to the rank of foreman and in June, 1905, he was named assistant chief engi- neer. Those who are conVersant with lire department matters know the capabilities of the new chief. He is thoroughly acquainted with local building conditions, also the water system and pressure. He has for many years been connected with the Brady Electric company, and will enter In his new duties as chief en- slneer of the fire department, as soon as he can arrange his affairs at the factory. For the past 1T weeks. during the illness of Chief Dame, MT. Noble has been the active head of the department
 Assistant Chief Barnes.
 In the appointment of Captain Eu- gene F. Barnes as assistant chief en- Slneer, the commissioners exercised Judgment. Although he is one of the most modest men connected with the depa rtnent he is, nevertheless one of the most efficient. He is the old est permanent member of the de- partment, in the point of service. Two years ago when the commissioners decided to send a fireman to New York to make a special study of fire fight Ing ana ire prevention, Capt. Barnes was the selection. Since his return from that study he has acted as chief inspector in the department. He is n veteran of the Spanish merican war and is a prominent member of A. G. Hammond camp, |. $. w. V, and has been adJutant for a number of years
 Through. the changes in the de- partment, it will be necessary for the fire commissioners to recommend to the common council that the position of assistant chief engineer be estab- llshed. In the past there has been no ordinance covering this position, Chief Noble doing the work in connection with his factory duties. The commis sioners believe with the steady growt h or the departm ent, the time has ar rived for the establish ment of the as sistant chief engineers position as a permanent position.

William J. Noble, assistant chief engineer in the fire department, was &hosep chief engine cor tossucceed the late Robert M. Dame, when the board of fire commissioners met last night to take action on the vacancy. The promotion of MT. Noble to the head of the department caused d vacancy in the assistant chief engineers berth, and the commissioners filled this by naming Captain Eugene F. Barnes of the Hook and Ladder company. Both selections should prove excellent ones, and should go a long way toward the continued efficiency in the depart ment. The commissioners adopted resolutions on the death of Chief Dame, and copy will be sent to the family.
