Rents and Tenants

The rental situation will be more acute this fall, and there can be no relief until the num- Der of available houses is in- creased. This is the memorable working of the law of supply and demand, and no idealistic theories or hysterical effusions can affect it. We advise those who are able to buy lots to do so and thereby practically break the ground for home ownership and permanent relief from rental worries
 We wish to express our ap- pteciation of the reasonable and fair attitude shown by a number of tenants in regard to the necessary increases in the rental space in apartments, office buildings and stores for which this company acts as agents. These increases were made reluctantly and under the pressure of heavily in- creased cost of operation and maintenance. A comparatively few of our tenants expressed some dissatisfaction at first, but when we explained the situation to them they agreed that the increase was unavoid- able and also moderate.
 Excuse us, but we ask again:
 Are you merely living in Birmingham" or are you per manently connected with the growth of this city through the ownership of some of the ground on which it stands? Birmingham real estate today is the best "buy" you can make, and the beauty of it is that your war dollar is still good for 100 per cent when applied to Birmingham earth.

 Review

Sales are gradually decreas- ing the number of improved lots which we are offering for sale in the Country Club" dis trict, more particularly in Mountain Terrace, Cliff Road and Altamont Road. The time is not far distant when resi- dential property in this class will not be available at any price, and then the would-be purchaser will keenly regret that he did not buy when this property was on the market at priSssm priHSyasmsfffesd mhsaffed 2na 2fin[attbe ttbe 6eftref the war-improvements which can not be duplicated at this writ. ing for twice that cost, even II it were possible to have them put in. The very moderate prices asked for these lots is not as important, however, as the fact that they are in a thoroughly established residen- l;aI district of the hiehest class and protected by restrictions which insure their desirability.
 Another important fact is that they are within the zone of street railway operation, and that there is small possibility of that zone being enlarged for an indefinite time to come. On this array of facts these lots will continue to sell themselves au- tomatically. We are calling att tention to them in the hope of being of service to some good citizens who are prospective home owners and who, we be- lieve, will appreciate our di- recting their attention to the residential situation as it exists today.

| conference, are to take an active part
in promoting this health program for
women which will be the share of the
Y. w. c. A in the big health move
ment in China
The funds for establishing thes.
health centers, for demonstra tons OF
how to care for babies. for health
lectures for the women, for babies dis
pensaries and for a general educa-
tonal campaign, will be raised by the
American Y. w. c. A as part of Its
program of world service for women
and girls in 1920
Dr. Ida Kahn, In a recent appeal to
modern Chinese women said, LET our
women of education In Picking and
elsewhere gather themselves together
to work for the schools, Red Cross and
7. W. g. A, and everything else which
bespeaks the betterment Of the coun.
try. instead of staying at home to play
poker and sparrow and going out to
attend endless dinners, tea parties and
dances.
LET us rally our forces and help the
ship of state to move safely One per-
son cannot accomplish much, but one
or two hundred millions of women can
work wonders. Let US go back to
more Spartan-like simplicity of living
and let US build up social service until
every city in China is sanitary, every
section of the town has it's proper
schools. and every child, whether boy
or girl, is sent to such schools. True
social service brings democracy in its
train, and we who are citizens Of q
new republic can help to make it truly
great by preaching and living democ-
racy all the time. Why not learn to
do our household duties, deeming 1t
effeminate to be waited upon by maids
and slave girls all the time?
"The status of women in China,
while leaving much to be desired, still
is quite hopeful when we consider
that she is just emerging into the SIS
terhood of the nations. Our men can
depend upon US to bear the burdens of
the day, for nowhere is there a more
industrious, diligent and persevering
womanhood than in China"
DR.. Kahn is lecturing in this coun
try on the needs of her fellow country
women, in the interests Of the Y W.
c. A. Educational Campaign which
plans to acquaint people with all
phases of Y. W. G. A. work in the
| Tv,s%
Japan, India and Europe. This educa-
tional campaign will be followed by
