For the Good of
 the Community
THIS is February 5.

THIS is February 5.
 The people of Birmingham were as- sured short time ago that by February definite steps would be taken towards the building of an auditorium in Birmingham
 Last August city bonds for building the auditorium were authorized by the citi- zens of Birmingham.
 If it takes six months after authoriza- tion to sell bonds, and they haven't been sold yet, how long after they are sold will it take to build the auditorium?
 At the rate of progress made during the last ten months, since first assurance of an auditorium by January 1, 1920, was given, 1t is to be feared none of the preent inhab- itants will live to see it's completion. CaruSo, Farrar, Ruffo Galli-Curci, Me- Cormick Elman and the other stars" will long since have taken their voices and their violins to other shores where, may hap, they will join the great chorus to welcome the benighted Birmingham men and women who, forsooth because they could offer no adequate facilities, were denied the privilege of sitting in worship at their feet on this sphere
 Something over twenty years ago there was great cry for. an auditorium in Bir- mingham It's need was recognized. A few citizens got together, worked out plan, and then went among their friends and the. business men of the city and booked subscriptions to the capital stock of company that built an auditorium It had seating capacity of about 3,600
 Some of the best musical organizations in the country came to Birmingham in those days because there was a place where they could play and the people could hear. Conventions, also, came, and there were none so large that they could not be taken care of
 It wasn't the magnificent edifice that is contemplated at present, but it was com modious; it seated an audience large enough to justify the most expensive amusement aggregations and the biggest conventions coming here.
 After the initial steps towards building that auditorium were taken it was less than six months until it was open for busi- ness.
 What became of that auditorium is an- other story. It is today the largest theatre in the city, but with much less seating ca pacity than it originally had.
 What was done twenty-three or twenty four years ago by a city of less than 40, 900 population ought not to be hard of accom- r,l;chnoont hv a cifv If 200 00O or ,,,oro +,

meval and the romance of a young
French Canadian girl and an Amer

the latter role, finding himself the
enemy of vetal Beaulieu, a ringleader

Everybody remembers well the effect Of that change in
trade relations Because we were increasing our pur-
chases abroad we were diminishing our consumption of
commodities produced at home and were sending good
American money to European nations to build up their
industries furnish employment for their labor and add 10
he circulating medium which maintained their business
enterprises in prosperous activity. 1t is perhaps worth
while to repeat statement that has been published many
times heretofore, that every dollar spent in useful indus
tries changes hands not less than ten times year That
means that every dollar continued active business in this
country means ten dollars of trade year. Every dollar
sent out of the United States for the purchase Of foreign

and ten dollars less domestic balance in The course
Of year.
There are many people who think the tariff is not a
present issue in American public affairs Quite likely we
can get along for several months without protective tariff

will purchase and from those countries that pro-
duce cheapy than We with the inevitable result that
productive industries will angush and those Of
