MAKE INSPECTION
 OF J. s. CAST IRON
 FOUNDRY COMPANY
Officials Spend Most of Yes terday at EnsIey Going Over Property
 There

High officials of the United States Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry Company are the guests of the Birmingham dis trict. They spent yesterday on a tour of the steel district and today will make special visit to the large plant of the company at Bessemer.
 In the party are L. R. LeMoyne pres- ident; George J. Long, vice president; N. F. $. Russell general sales agent. and the following directors: w T.. c. Carpenter, A. C. Overstreet, E. c. Full Ter, George B. Hayes and Colgate Hoyt.
 The officials of the company are making the usual annual roundup anr inspection of plants. This is the sea son of the year in the water and gas pipe trade when operations are accus- toned to slow down op account of the near approach of winter, and it is therefore, the period usually chosen for inspection, stock taking and other busi- ness affairs of general nature
 SPECIAL GUESTS
 While here the visitors are the spe- cial guests of the general southern sales agency, whose offices are in the American Trust building. in the charge of Charles M. Gray, general southern sales agent. This office was moved to Birmingham from Chattanooga several years ago, Birmingham being nearer the center of the company's operations in the southern states.
 The company operates pipe shops in different parts of the country, with the following in the south: Chattanooga, Anniston, Birmingham, and Bessemer. It is the largest single consumer of southern pig iron, and it's products are shipped all over the world as we'll as in this country.
 The southern shops have done an especially large business with the Pa cific coast during the past few months, over 12,000 tons of gas and water pipe having been moved to the coast by steamers out of Mobile. The company has also shipped 5000 tons to Japan and is now shipping 2,O0o tons to that destination. It has also shipped quan- titles to Cuba and to Santos, Brazil in the recent past. -/
 PLANTS IN OPERATION
 All four of the southern plants are in operation. Very recently the company closed with the water and sewerage board of the city of New Orleans for S,4o0 tons of pipe, and manufacture of this pipe has begun. This is one of the largest orders secured in some time.
 IHo oohipdiy udS diSO entered largely into the manufacture of flange pipe for use at oil wells. Capacity for the man ufacture of this class of pipe at the Anniston plant was considerably in- creased and the business in that kind of pipe has been very good. In fact the demand has usually exceeded the manufacturing capacity.
 Speaking of the visit of the officials Mir. Gray said: "It is the season of the year best suited to a general annual roundup and inspection of the plants This is the occasion of the visit of our high officials. There is nothing of a special nature or out of the usual in the visit. The company has large op- erations in the states of Alabama and Tennessee, and an annual inspection ol these propertiesfis Always made at sea sonal periods

 Active preparations are being made by the Young Mems Christian Assoca- tion and the Knights of Columbus to participate in the parade. Information is that each organization will have a fine representation in the line of march and will be in uniform, it is said.
 The most important developments
 of yesterday was the positive nn-
 nouncement that two additional bands had been secured. Assist
 mt Superintendent Temple of the
 American Steel aud Wire company notified the central committee in
 charge cf the programme that the
 band of that company would be in
 the parade. This is considered one
 of the best bands in the state.

Steiner to call out the Alabama na- tional guard band for the day. Gen eral Steiner will confer this morning with Phil Memoli, Jr.. leader of the band, regarding the progranne for the day.

made by committee headed by Leroy Jacobs with all the indus trAals and railroads in the district to blow their whistles and ring their bells ThUrsdny morning at II o'clock to commemorate the signing of the armistice. It is stated that ready response is be- ing found to the request.

 An order was issued by the field mai- shal of the allied armies. calling on all members of the various armies to report for the parade at the west side of Eighteenth street, between Fifth and Sixth avenues, Thursday afternoon at o'clock sharp.
 General Steiner has ordered that a se- lected detachment of the Alabama Ma tonal Guard shall march in the parade. 1t had been planned to have the entire guard in line, but as they are still on strike duty in the mining district, only q selected number can be in line The Ma tional Guard band will precede the pa- rade, followed by the $50 high school cadets in uniform and the high school band.
 REPRESENT STATE General Steiner, who desired to accpct the invitation of the committee to par ticpate in the parade, will be unable to
 do so on account of an important meet ing of the trustees of the University Of Alabapna which had been called pre- viouSYy to convene at Tuscaloosa. This meeting will also prevent Governor Kilby attending. The state of Alabama win be represented in the parade and at the
 meeting by Lieut.. Gov. Nathan L. Miller. General Gordon will ride in car with Senator Conner, Lieutenant Governor Miller and E. w. Barrett, editor of The Age Herald. Senator Underwood, Sena- tor-elect Heflin, Matt H. Murphy and Victor H. Hanson, publisher of the Bir- mingham News, will ride in another car. It was announced yesterday that the EWart-Brewer Motor company, which win furnish, the cars for the canteen workers, will have ex-service men, em- pIoyes of the company, to drive the cars. All of them will be in uniform. l The enthusiasm of the ex-service men 1 is growing each day. and it is announced that few of them will be outside the
 1 line of march Thursday. Most of the 1 firms and industries have agreed to let off all ex-service men and women em- ployed during the hours of the parade
 and meeting at Capitol park. A strong
 letter urging their. attendance and par
 ticipation was sent to more than 2,Oo0
 service men yesterday by Judge Horace c. Wilkinson. chairman of the commit I tee on organization, Lack of addresses of many others prevented letter being sent to them.

Uo DU SIlI IISSS IIId IId s VI FLYING SCHOOL

FLYING SCHOOL inauguration of the flying school on a permanent basis are the outcome of the activities of the aviation committee of
 the Chamber of Commerce. An- nouncement of the new enterprise is made by that body.
 MT. Stinson is the oldest flyer in the world today. He has had eight years experience in the game and is known far and wide as the first man to do the nose dive, the hair-spring and a num- Der of the other daring feats of the airplane. His two sisters are also well known in aeronautics. one of them, Kathatine Stinson having been seen here at the State fair.
 5000 HOURS IN AIR
 Mir. Stinson enjoys the distinction of having been up in the air total of moro than 5000 hours, which is believed to be the worlds record.
 The flying school will be open for those who wish to take air flights at every hour in the day. It also is in tended to have machines ready for com mercial business or for passenger traf- fic. It is believed that in an industrial district like Birmingham there will be many calls for such an accessory. The airplane for commercial and passenger traffic is a regular institution in Chat tanooga. and it is believed that Bir- mingham will generate the same calls for this service as the Tennessee city has done.
 In addition to his other claims to the attention of the aeronautic world, MT. Stinson carried off all the honors at the aeronauticaf congress in Atlantic City last year.

Much Rheumatism
Local Druggists No-Cure-No-Pay Offer
Attracts Many Sufferers.

If there are any rheumatic sufferers who
have not avaied themselves of this gen.
erous offer they should do SO at once.
Wilfred f. Root states that if Rheuma,
the guaranteed prescription for reheuma-
tism in any form does not give any
purchaser quick and joyful relief they will
gladly return the cost without any quib-
bling or red tape. 49, ~ -
Rheumatism is a, dangerous disease, and
anyone who has the slightest faint of it
should drive it out of the system as quick
" as possible. This is what Rheuma did
