TURNS CAR INTO CURB
TO AVOID HITTING AUTO

At the risk of his own life, Second
Assistant Fire Chief ]. A Browning
of the central fire station turned his
speeding car directly into curbing
at the intersection OF Tenth avenue
and Twenty-eighth street, south, yes
terday morning at 1880 o'clock and
avoided a collision which would have
probably resulted in the death of Mr..
and Mrs. Lee McGriff, 10I4 Twenty
eighth street. south, and their little
girl.
In answer to a fire call Chief
Browning, In company with two fire
trucks, was speeding down the steep
tsrsection of Tenth avenue and Twen-
ty-eighth street, when 1t became ap-
parent that another car going down
parent that another car was coming
up Twenty-eighth street. AS both
cars gained momentum going down
the steep incline it seemed utterly I'm
possible that a crash could be avoided.
Quickly Mr.. Browning reached the
decision to avoid hitting the other car
and turned directly to the curb.
The impact caused by the front
wheels of the car hitting the curb
rebounded the front wheels several
feet in the air but the speed was sc
great that the car continued on across
the sidewalk and up an embankment
and finally turned over.
Chief Browning escaped injury
beyond a severe shaking up and after
righting the car drove 1t back to the
station where he continued in his fire
duties.

The Birmingham Art league mem
bers found Mr.. Pennell interesting
in many respects, chief among which
was wondering what he was going
to say next; what admire next; what
find not to. his artistic liking.
After his lecture, which was held
at the Southern club, one of the
audience present stopped me as l
was going out of the door:
did you hear what the three out
standing things were that Mr.. Pen
nell liked best in all the city?' he
queried
i said i had not.
What were they?'
1.-THE first was poster drawn by
local artist, Hartley Anderson, and
which had been used to advertise his
coming. He asked for a copy to take
along with him.
1.-The second was the cleanliness CT
the floors of the furnace room at the
steel mills.
"The third was the sunset that God
made"
SURROUNDINGS Inartistic
Mr.. Pennell told me that while he
admired our steel mills, and found
them in every way efficient. he was
more interested in the way the work
ers were housed. and the surround
ings than in the mills themselves.
Il was disappointed in the sur
roundings from my standpoint. I did
not find\them as attractive as l have
seen elsewhere. The mills are not
on as gigantic a scale as those at
Gary, ILL.,, and elsewhere"
The great artist will not do any
etching or work here, he said. The
xreatest reason why he came, he de-
clared, was to see the mills.

Yesterday the chime of thirteen
bells. the gift of an unknown
friend to Highlands Methodist
church, was placed in position on the
lawn OF the church, SO that "all who
run may read" in other words, those
who care to see the chime may do
SO before the bells are placed with
in the tower.
Regarding the beautiful chime,
which is designed as a memorial to
sthe late Bishop James II. Mccoy, the
first pastor of Highlands Methodist
church, Mr.. Frank Dominick, who
has acted as the representative of the
donor since the chime was first Of
fered to the church, said yesterday:
1T wish to state, as representative
of the giver of the chime, that pro-
vision had been made in will to
give chime, but later, through the
influence of DR.. George r. Stuart, It
was decided to do so at this time.
1t is the giver's sincere wish to be
unknown in connection with the gift.
ut is also the donors desire that
ali the churches in Birmin CHAM be
benefited by the chime, and that the
churches of the South Highlands Sec
ton enjoy the chime as much as the
Highlands Methodist church, in which
1t is placed. 1t is further the hope
of the donor that the chime will
prove Joy and civic benefit to the
entire city, both rich and poor alike,
and will be freely used on all very
special holidays and occasions when
the city is especially celebrating a
worthy event" ~
One of the most interesting things
in connection with the chime is the
beautiful handling of the inscriptions,
much thought and attention having
been given to this feature. Each
passage of Scripture used on the thir-
teen bells has been carefully cnosen'
the first six bells carrying the mes
sage of Gods love for His people, for
the world and His gift of Christ.
Incidents regarding the birth of our
Savior are embodied in the inscrip-

bike RIDERS ARE
READY FOR JAUNT
Munger Estate at Arlington
Place Is Objective of
Cyclists

The big sociable bike ride that
starts today at o'clock will wind
up at the Munger estate at Arlington
place through the kindness Of R. S.
Munger.
A committee called on Mr.. Munger
Saturday for the purpose Of obtain
ing permission to use the football
fields on his estate, and he quickly
and willingly offered the use Of the
grounds for the resting place of the
hundreds of riders that are expected
to start and finish on the big pleas
ure ride.
On the Cotton avenue side of the
fields Fred st. Onge will have an ex-
cellent opportunity to display his tall
emit as fancy rider. He will be able
among other things to show the boys
how easy 1t is to ride bicycle back
ward, wheel and rider going straight
away in the same direction. He will
also show here the right and wrong
way to ride a wheel and will give
the youngsters some valuable point
ers on how to ride in traffic.
The. ride around town and out to
the Munger estate will be at slow
up with the leaders. Mr.. Munger will
be there to greet the boys.
Not so long ago he was clever
rider himself. his favorite mount in
those days being the big wheel with
the little wheel in front. Among the
very first riders in Birmingham were
his two daughters. one OF whom al
the time she first rode wheel was
only . years old, and probably the
youngest rider in the country at that
time, while the other girl was only
years of age.
He has not forgotten the happy
days of cycling. and is glad to CO.
operate with the dealers who are re-
sponsible for the big outing to be
held today.
Souvenirs and plenty of grapico
will be given to all the participants.
There is no charge for anything. Par
Elephants are urged to ride their
bicycles to Capitol park not later
than 1:45, as the start will be made
promptly at o'clock.
The Munger estate is on Tuscaloosa
avenue.

FORD RUNS 81 MILES ON
GALLON OF GASOLINE

A new automatic vaporizer and de-
carbonizer, which in actual test, has
increased the power and mileage of
Fords from rs to so per cent and at
the same time removed every particle
OF carbon from the cylinders is the
proud achievement of John A.
Stransky, 50 South Main Street, Puk-
wanna. s. D. A remarkable feature
of this simple and inexpensive device
is that its action is governed entirely
by the motor. 1t is slipped between
the carburetor and intake manifold
and can be installed by anyone in
five minutes without drilling or tap
ping. With it attached, Ford cars
have made from 40 to 81 miles on one
gallon of gasoline. Mr.. Stransky
wants to place a few of these devices
on cars in this territory and has a
very liberal offer to make to anyone
who is able to handle the business
which is sure to be created wherever
this marvellous little device is dem
onstrated. If you want to try one
entirely at his risk send him your
name and address today.--Adv.

teachings are inscribed on the fourth,
fifth and sixth bells.
As a chime is used for praise of
God, the inscriptions on Bells 7, 8,
Q, 10. IL. 10 and 1s are all of praise.
and are supposed, in this case, to
express the JOY of Christ's coming

Within a short time the tower will
be completed and the chime placed
in position, and it is purposed now
to have the opening program played
on Christmas Eve, when Mr.. NJ. H.
Mettee, who is an accomplished
"chimer" from the McShane Bell
foundry, where the chime was made,
will come to Birmingha for that
purpose and to teach "chimers" here.
There will be seven programs dur
ing the Christmas holidays, and
Christmas Day. which comes on Sun

the chime ringing out; Peace On
