UNDERWOOD FIGHT
 IN COUNTY BEGINS Jefferson County Headquar- ters Will Open Today in
 the Morris Hotel

Underwood headquarters for Jefferson county will be opened today in the Morris hotel, and from this date forward an aggressive campaign will be waged here in the interest of MT. Underwood for the senatorship.
 Announcement was made yesterday that Rooms 290 and 231 at the Morris had been rented and that within the next few days the personnel of the campaign or ganization would be perfected and an- nounced formally.
 In the various counties of the state the campaign is already well under way and has made fine progress. Jefferson county is recognized as the most important in the state because of the number of votes cast here, and the arrangements are be- ing completed only after a most careful canvas of the situation.

true that he would receive more nearly the complete newspaper support of the state than any other man mentioned as a possible candidate
 But MT. Oliver doesn't think that he will be a candidate. And in all proba- bility he will not be
 As to the effect that developments following the death of Senator Bank head will have on the race of l., B. Mus grove and others te displace Senator Underwood. there is now little doubt. It is stated that Mir. Musgrove will con tinue in the field, and that the efforts of prohibition political masters nov ing in his interest, to force other en- tries Into the discards, and eternal ob. livion as far as politics is concerned, will prove entirely abortive.
 On account of the general knowledge that Senator Underwood will succeed himself, there has never been any state wide interest in the plans of his oppo- nents. As the race between would be successors to Senator Bankhead Is a race which may go to any man, as a cause of excitement the race involving Senator Underwood appreciably fades in contrast In consequence, 1t was the opinion of politicians from all sections of the state in Birmingham yesterday that without large noise or the blow Ing or lTuHupStS Se eudtOt OHNeIN OOu W III simply ride back to Washington.
 Regarding all these features, there was a singularly significant agreement despite the fact that all of them were entirely speculative. Governor Kilby in conversation with this representa- tive of The Age-Herald. as if to em- phasize teh uncertainty of the situa- tion, exclaimed with energy:
 "Ir truth I do not know at this mo- ment whom I will appoint"
 But he added that he would act quickly, and those who would be ad- .vised may expect a proclamatj ton from the executive offices in Montgomery Saturday night, publication of which will he made Sunday morning
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-03-05

The outstanding features were;
 Governor KiIby will most prob
 ably appoint E. R. Conner, ex-Eov-
 ernor of Alabama, to serve until the
 people net. He. may appoint Fred
 erick I. Thompson, head of the Mo-
 hile Register. He considers ".
 T.. Acker, n state senator, rep
 resentinw the Calhoun district.
 He would be glad were it possible ;, for him to serve all ends of justice
 and merit by appointing Cecil A.
 Beasley, who served with the gov
 ernor in the state senate, and who
 for years was the right hand man
 of senator Bankhead.
 He knows that Senator Bankhead could he speak, would favor the ap pointment of Beasley.
 For the race for the permanent DO. sition, as indicated in The Age-Heralt yesterday morning, two men are re sarded as candidates They are Rep resentatiye Heflin of the Fifth district whose announcement is expected Sun day, and exSenator Frank $. White who once served a short term in ths Senate of the United States. It is re. garded as entirely probable that Ra, Rushton, admitted to be a man of sen atorial capacity, and known to hav' ambition to serve as a senator, will en- ter the field He wants to run. Ant many men, thinking of the states in terest, have urged him to run.
 Emmet O'Neal. former governor, ant in the theory of government 8 master with few equals in this state, may be candidate. If the field is Sufficient, broken up," he may perceive a rar, opportunity and grasp it.
 It is gathered from conversation with Representative Oliver of the Tus caioosa district, that he will not be z candidate. Mir. Oliver is regarded a. senatorial size" Many men would lik, to support him, and it ist ndisputabl.

the First Methodist Church.
 All great reformations and revivals which have swept over the nations have had their source in some great over throw or convulsioR of the nations, he continued From the earliest history Of the church, the points of highest spir- itual awakening have come after period of tremendous prodigious national dis- turbance. At this moment all nations are deeply affected by the cataciysm which the world war has brought; ana the minds of all peoples are plastic and receptive to the healing forces of Chris tianity. -
 Dr. smith spoke from wealth or per sonal experience on many mission fieids, and the inspiration of his words created a. profound impression upon the large au- dience made up of ministers from all partsi of Alabama, representing all the great Protestant denominations.
 But while the opportunity awaits ana the need of intensified missionary actlV- ttv is imperative, there is great gap in the church programme in meeting the need. he stated. According to figures quoted by him, there are in southeastern Asia 100000 people who are not inciud- ed in the missionary programme or any church: in Africa there are s0.0oo,Wo while in South America, the greatest un- touched area in all the world, now awaits

The Fires You Remember

Were you ever in a burning house q?
Can you possibly forget it? Even
though the fire may have been put out
before it did much damage, you re-
member the excitement and fear. If
you were old enough to realize the
danger, you will never again care to
pass through such a terrible exper-
fence.
You have never been in a burning
house, you say? That is fortunate,
but at least you have seen fires and
can plainly recall the clouds of smoke
and the fierce crackle of the flames, as
they spread and destroyed everything
within reach. You may have noticed
the people who escaped; do you re-
member their grief as they saw their
home and comforts, their clothing,
furniture, pictures, books, and the
treasures that they had been gathering
for so many years, suddenly swept
away?
1t is to be hoped that you have never
seen a fire in which people have lost
their lives, or have been badly injured
but these, too, often occur. They
happen without warning, at points
where they are least expected. Peo-
pie who have been going about their
daily tasks without a thought of dan
ger may suddenly find their escape
cut off by flames that have been caus-
ed by somebody's carelessness. In
order that such a terrible thing may
never happen through our careless
ness, let US try to learn some things
about fire, and especially about the
ways which it may be kept from be-
coming dangerous.
