SMITH COLLEGE LOSES
$50 A YEAR ON STUDENT
Fact Is. Pointed Out in Drive for
$4,000 900 for Woman's
TarOeSf TnStif,1tion
argest Institution.

OF the four millions of dollars that
Smith College. Northampton. Mass,
largest college for women in the coun-
try, is asking. in order that it may do
itself justice, half million at least
partakes of the nature of an obliga-
ton due. it is pointed out by those
behind the campaign. Since its foun-
dation by Sophia Smith in 1871 Smith
has actually given it's students about
halt, q million, because it has lost an
average Of $50 "a year on; eaqh ~ tho
7,741 graduates. not to mention those
who. did not complete their courses.
The loss per capita on the student
body last year was $69.79. Despite
this gift year in and year out, the COL
lege has never had deficit and prob
ably won't have this year if content
to labor under the same restrictions.
But the professors and instructors
need pay commensurate with the
work they are doing. and the ever-in-
creasing student body needs added
dormitory facilities. Hence. alumnae,
undergraduates and friends of Smith
are asked to contribute the irreducible
minimum Of 100000 before next
June. The income from the dormi-
tories, by the way. will help pay the
self-sacri1cing professors. The col
lege's attitude, in effect, Is that 1t
prefers to ask public assistance rather
than deny the benefits of education to
poor girls who cannot afford large
tuition fees

Other speakers will be Dr. George Fl. Denny president of the University of Alabama, and Dr. Spright Dowell. presi- dent of Alabama Polytechnic institute. Mrs. c. W. Stansll will render a violin solo.
 c. R. Gates president of the local chap ter,i said last night that this is to be purely social and business meeting. Nothing technical will be discussed. MT. Gates said that of all the professions he felt that the engineers got less from the social side of life and that the banquet is being held to try to encourage the fraternal spirit among the members Of his profession.
 Although more than 300 invitations have been sent out the banquet is nor 70 b. limited to invited guests. All engineers in the Birmingham district lnd any visiting engineers who chance to be in the city Friday night are urged to attend the banquet
 It is said that there are a number or engineers in the district who havA liv@n here for months, and some of them for years. and are unknown by other mem- bers of the profession. It is the earnest desire of the president that all of the engineers get together and forget the Jacobs staff, maps and figures for at least one night and enjoy a 'get-together'' meeting" at the HilIman
 The banquet starts at o'clock. Mem bers are allowed to bring friends.

MOTORMAN HAS A
 NARROW ESCAPE Street Car Completely DemoI- ished When Struck By
 Freight Train

Although the front end of his car was completely demolished last evening about 5:30 o'clock. when a string of coal cars pushed by a Frisco switch engine struck an inbound North Birmingham street car, Roy Carter. motorman, was not scratched and none of the passengers injured. The passengers were considerably shaken up by the sudden jar.
 How the motorman escaped death was the wonder of all who viewed the wreck age last night. Mir Carter, it is said, stayed with the car while the freight train was tearing the platform from be- meath his feet.
 The street car, No. 4O6 was returning to town from North Birmingham in charge of Conductor J. w. Stevens. Near Twenty-third avenue. at the intersection of Twenty-sixth street with the railroad the street car stopped while Peter Derico. a negro flagman employed by the Bir- mingham Railway, Light and Power com paEy, got out to see if the crossing was clear.
 He said last night that he saw the freight train on the track but did not see light on the rear end, So thought that it was going in the other direction.
 The street car was turned crosswise with the street. the wheels cutting deep ly into the pavement. The low rate of speed at which both the train and car were traveling was doubtless the saliva tion Of all on the car. The car was not turned over.
 A wrecking crew was sent to the scene at once by the street car company and the debris was removed.

WOMEN MUST STOP
 WEARING BUTTONS


 Unless they cease the practice of wearing portions of army uniforms and military buttons and insignia sev- eral women and girls may be added to the lists of defendants in the United States. according 10 agents of the de- pa rtment of justice.
 This practice is quite popular among the girls, they declared, and must be broken up This warning is issued so that it will not be necessary for any arrests for the violation of this law to be made among the women. it is pointed out.
 The men arrested Tuesday on charges of wearing parts of the uni- form from which the buttons had not been taken off and the garments dyed or altered were released under $500 bonds yesterday following hearings be- fore Kenneth Charlton, United States commissioner.
 L. L. Ford, head of the department of justice in Birmingham, stated that most of the men arrested for violating this law do so through ignorance, but that they must suffer with the others, as this practice must be stopped, ac- cording to orders from the Attorney Generals office.
