 RESUMES ACTIVITIES
Birmingham Suggested for Cattle Convention With
 Sale of Jerseys

The Jersey Cattle Club, more or less active a few years ago, will be revived in June and steps taken to make it a Robert N. Bell. Jr., one of the owners of the Bon Aire Farm. is member of the committee having charge of the convention arrangements, and he writes to friends in Birmingham that the one in June will be bigger and better than any ever held in the state.
 The convention will be held on June IA, and MT. Bell states that Selma and Montgomery are asking that it come to those cities. He suggests that Bir- mingham get interested in the matter, in which event 1t might come here.
 Forty fine Jerseys will be sold on the day of the convention, and MT. Bell says they are forty of the best cattle ever sold in Alabama.
 Under the plans outlined for the con- vention the business session will be held in the morning, the sale at noon. either at the State Fair grounds or some other suitable place, and there will be a banquet in the evening.
 With the growing interest in the live stock industry in Alabama, Jersey convention should, and no doubt will, bring a large crowd to the city from all parts of the state.

 IS IN MONTGOMERY Woman for Whom City Re- lief Department Searched
 Is Seen In Capital City

Mrs. Pearl Lucas, . the unfortunate woman who appealed to the city for help about month ago has been definitely located in Montgomery.
 The family originally came from Mont gomery county, Dr. Walter $. Brown, director of the city department of relief and corrections was informed, and he was told yesterday by man who knew Mrs. Lucas when he saw her, that she was seen in the capital city Saturday after noon on Dexter avenue.
 Mrs. Lucas came to the city hall some weeks ago, stating that her husband was dead and that she and her five little children were destitute. Immediately a number of Birmingham citizens and peo- pie of the state sent money and clothes for her, but they were never delivered, as Mrs. Lucas did not return to the city hall
 Dr. Brown, with the aid of the police authorities, spent much time in trying to find her in the vicinity of Ensley, where she said she lived but she evil dently had gone away before they started the search, for no trace of her was found in that neighborhood.
 Dr Brown says the man who mentioned having seen her says she was comfortably clad and seemed well fed and cared for.
 It is believed she is back with relatives or friends who know her and are familiar with her circumstances.

Other details of the funeral will be announced later. MT. Fulenwider's death will come as a great shock to thousands of friends in Birmingham and elsewhere. Probably no other man in Brminghams history had been a greater factor in the development of this city.
 For more than ten years he was presi- dent of the Birmingham Realty Company and was responsible for the great strides
 that company took in the artistic de- velopment of the residence section of Bir- mingham. Becoming president of the
 company about 1898, he was responsible for the growth and development of beau

 boulevard system. He was a pioneer in the development of the Country Club district
 and was more than any other one man
 responsible for the organization of the
 Birmingham Country Club. 1t was he

 NOW INDEPENDENT
Rug Factory of City Re lief Department Has All
 It Can Do for Ten Days
of Birmingham, Ala Statement February 2Sth, 1920. RESOIIRCES

'One hundred pounds of rags per month will support a needy family of two or three," says Df Walter S Brown, direc- tor of the relief corrections department of Birmingham.
 The association depends upon the peo- pie of the city to furnish these rags. either in the form of old clothing as rags. Worn garments. if not too much worn, are patched and used for clothing, and as such are given to the poor. If the garments are in such condition that they may not be used as clothing they are sent to the Women's Industrial Home, S25 North Nineteenth street.
 In this home they are made into rag rugs by women who are paid regular rates for their work, and thus are en- abled to earn their own living. These women are the unemployed, the handi- capped either by sickness or because ot children.
 The association finds employment else where for all who are able to work out side. This industry is maintained for those who cannot hold employment else where. In this way women who would otherwise be thrown entirely upon charity become industrials.
 ty It IS SuTpflSiltS, SdIu LII. I1iOWAs " see the amount of self-respect this op- portunity to earn their own living de- velopes in them.
 '"The completed rugs are peddled from house to house by widow in our empioy- ment," continued Dr. Brown. i've can not furnish enough rugs They sell just as fast as we make them and the demand is increasing every day. The women are anxious to work We need rags, I hope the people of Birmingham will give this work a little thought and realize that by sending us their rags they can put work into the hands of these women
 The department has worked out a scale of wages. If the rags are furnished by the department the price paid for the rugs is 25c per pound. If the employees furnish their own rags they receive Soc per pound.
 The rugs sell at market prices.
 To secure rags from the people man is sent out by the association. He leaves card at each house, which explains the method On this card is also an an nouncement that the association will send to any address to collect the cases or clothing shoes, rags, furniture or any thing whatever.

GUTTER SMELLED
 ID HIGH HEAVEN
Auto Spills White Light ning-DOwntOwn Section
 Is Fragrant

His face drawn and pinched with woe, an unknown autoist sped madly along Third avenue yesterday after noon silently cursing street car tracks inc general and those at Third avenue and Nineteenth street in particular
 He had been ''juning" along at re- spectable clip, with an innocent look ing keg in the back of the car, when he. or at least the car. hit said street car tracks. The surprised lSeg leaped high in air. fell with shcattering of slaves, and some six gallons of per fectly good liquid insanity flowed wild and free into the gutter.
 Immediately on the chill air there spread the perfume of a bygone regime.
 Psychologists, or some of them, say memory is but a matter of smells. They sure hit it right. for yesterday the scenes of the halcyon years that are passed seemed to troop back to innum- erable citizens.
 After the custom of the ancients, when brave soldier lay dead. slain in fair fight, and all dipped their gar ments in the blood even so the tried and true citizenry of Birmingham, or some of them, dipped their handker- chiefs in the gutter to secure bit of the fragrant perfume that cloyingly filled the air of the business section.
 The all pervading odor spread rap idly. Upper windows in the stores be- gan to be raised innumerable heads with s'retrousse noses and tear dimmed eyes appeared. Men turned to strangers and clasped hands, some slowly and reverently took off their hats, while the limpid lightning flashed along the curbing in silent race against evaporation, and the flames started by some pagan who had ig- nted the alcohol.
 The great destroyer famed bril- liantly clear proof of it's mighty proof, and old timers estimated the potency of the corn juice as easily five fights to the gill.
 Meanwhile the bounding auto that had spilled the beans whisked away into stilly and engulfng distance.

J. W. AbercrOmbie Suggest ed for Late Dr. Owens Position = Senatorial
 Candidates Active

Judge c. c. Nesmith has been ap- pointed state manager for former Gov ernor Emmett ONeal, candidate for the short term United States senator ship, and left yesterday afternoon for Montgomery to take charge of head quarters which were established in the Exchange hotel a week or ten days ago.
 A rumor gained circulation yester- day which, if founded on fact, will take one of the five candidates for the short term senatorship out of the race. This rumor had it that Governor Kilby would appoint John W. Abercrombie to the vacancy caused by the death of Dr. Thomas NJ Owen. director of the de- partment of archives and history of Alabama. No direct information from the governors office was received in Birmingham during the day, but per sons claiming to have q definite basis appointment of Dr. Abercrombie was more than a mere possibility.
 Dr. Abercrombie announced for the senate few days after the death of Senator John H. Bankhead and since then has made one or two statements bearing on the race in which he men toned federal aid for educational pur- poses as one of the blanks upon which he would make his campaign. He is also a decided prohibitionist and took issue with former Governor O'Neal. who announced himself in favor of modifying the Nolstead act to the ex- tent that light wines and beer might be manufactured and sold in the United

Lobby of City Hall Again Will Be-
 come General Store

Another municipal sale to help break down the high cost of existence will be started in the lobby of the city hall Thursday.
 Three cars loaded with merchandise bought from government supply sta tions have reached the city and will be unloaded today and tomorrow.
 One car contains bacon alone, the other two are loaded with tomatoes, beans, blankets, raincoats, candy, to- bacco and other things. All will be sold exactly at cost, the government having paid the cost of transportation.
 It is probable that this will be the last sale of surplus government mer chandise, as the stock is running low and the demand so heavy from so many cities that the general supply is nearly exhausted.
