SALES MANAGER OF REQ FACTORY
 MEETS DEALERS
3isSelI Motor Company Brings Elm All In to Hear Reu-
 SChaW Make Speech

R. c. Reuschaw, sales manager of the Rec Motor Car company of Lam sing. Mich, was in Birmingham last week and addressed a meeting of Reo dealers who gathered from all over the state of Alabama, Florida and Mississippi The Bissell Motor Co.,. To- cal distributors for Rec, invited the dealers to come here for the especial purpose of meeting Mr. Reuschaw and hearing him talk
 The dealers met in Birmingham last Thursday and on Thursday night they were the guests of the Bissell Motor company at dinner given at the Southern club. At this dinner were also many Rec owners in Birmingham, invited there by MT. Bissell to. meet Mir Reuschaw. After the dinner nov ing picture film, Reasons for Reo,2 was shown.
 Tn his speech to. the dealers at the Southern club, Mr. Reuschaw said:
 Yes, we are optimists and Rec busi- ness right through the past winter is the best proof that optimism pays.
 ''Of course you cannot cultivate optismism, it must be inherited," says the sales manager, but we Rec folk just seem to have been all endowed with the quality from the very first
 However there is a great difference between optimism and overconfidence. This latter quality has led many manu- lecturers into the error of over-pro- ducing quantity but under producing in quality with the inevitable result
 Having been, as it were. born and bred in the automobile business and having started at the same time that the industry did. we have always had q profound faith in the stability of this Industry and that faith has been in creasing during the past few months when others were talking about hard times
 '1t was our belief in the long future of the industry, not in it's mere momen- tary condition. that led us to adopt policy of quality rather than vast quantities in the first place.
 "Of course there must have been something else back of that. Some men just naturally. run to quality while others just as naturally seem to overlook that and think only of how many.
 However if we had not believed that the future of this industry was greater than it's past or it's present. we might have fallen into the error others did,
 That there is always demand for quality has been amply proven in the past few months when a few cars en-. joyed an unprecedented demand while others suffered from an almost total eclipse
 Another thing that gives Us much qualification is the evidence. so unmis- takably shown that the public which is so often accused of not knowing values, does know and does appreciate quality.
 'Of course when there is a demand

Egg Economy

f1OHl fatiil t<ilt
 All the eggs laid by hen for 10 days after being separated from a cock bird will be fertile. Or. in other words, eggs can be used for matching for 10 days af- ter the male is removed from the pen.
 Considering all the hens in the coun- try, we doubt if the average laying rec ord will go over eight dozen eggs per hen per year. A hen that will not lay 10 dozen eggs in year is not worth keep ing. A hen that will lay 12 dozen is mcney-maker. Between this mark and the ze0-ese limit is about right. It is a mistake to aim at world records, for then there IS more or less sacrifice in fertility and stamina.
 A hens profitable laying seems to be limited to the first two years of her life. She win about "break even the third season-and after that she is loss.
 Don't hold eggs for market longer than a week if it can be avoided. Always make it a rule that the product must be fresh.
 The laying hen is a more hearty eater and heavier thinker than the one not laying but it Is seldom that her food makes her overfat. as she has a double ',se for it-sustaining the tissue of the cdy and n1anrfart''ring eegs

Lodges Greatest Mistake

Perhaps the most unfortunate thing that MT. Lodge ever did from the point of view of the analytic poiitican of America was to write the life of his great grandfather. George Cabot,' writes Arthur Fell Low ino the Forum This gentleman was one of the last and bitterest leaders of the federalist party and presided at the Hartford convention in 1874, where these loyal descendants of Englishmen considered having Massachusetts secede from the Union. Although it was in New Eng land that the original reyolt against tho mother country began, and all though the men of Massachusetts yer the first and most ardent advocates of separation, the new republic once. established it was in New England that there was the greatest opposition to the pernicious democratic theories of Jefferson.

twice as great as the supply of all kinds of commodities, it looks as if the public did not know the difference simply because it takes what it can get. AS soon as the ratio between sup ply and demand gets anywhere near a balance, however, and especially when the supply is 8 little on the heavy side, then we see that the public does know values and does discriminate.
 Business has been wonderful with Rec all along and is going to continue to be wonderful for the simple reason that we are going to continue the old Rec policy.
 We probably never will be able to make enough cars to supply the whole world, but that is not our ambition.
 My advice to those who are trying to find the secret to success in this business is Make less of them, but mako them better"

"BEtIIND THE DOOR" IS
 THRILLING PRODUCTION.

It is doubtful if there is in the screen world a producer other than Thomas H. Ince, who would have undertaken picturiZation of Gouy- erneur Morris s thrilling story, Be hind the Door," which was shown at the Coliseum last night and is on for the last time tonight. This dramatic tale concerns fights on sinking submarines, leaps from bat tleships.- exciting mob encounters and many incidents that require sets that only the most daring producer would attempt.
 The story is distinctly melodram- attic, with one of the strongest char acter5 that has appeared in modern fiction This is interpreted by Ho- bart Bosworth. That the picture will be one of the biggest sensations of the year is believed by those who have seen it.
 Thomas H. Ince enjoys q reputa- tion for making big dramatic pie lures. Screen patrons will remem- Der vividly False Faces,' etc Be hind the Door, is said to excel all others in dramatic realism and vivid portrayal of modern conflict of emo tions.

Sir Algernon has returned recently from his 51st visit to the United States.
 Among factors cited as to Amer ican advantage in the situation, the British bushes man states were d more rapid reduction of values than in England and cooperation of labor in reducing the costs of production
 Mill workers in the United States, he said, are accepting wage reduc- tions of as much Gs 33 1-3 per cent in order to enable manufacturers 10 turn out goods at prices which the public would pay He said if this movement went much further it would mean that the United States Noa.G soon be in a strong position in the matter of exporting goods md would be able to secure busi uess that would otherwise come to Great Britain.
 American hours of work were about the same as those in England, he stated, but the men worked much harder while they were in the mills.

WILL ROGERS IS AT
 HOME IN NEW ROLE.

One of the best characterizations Will Rogers has ever done is that of Sam Gardner in the Goldwyn pie ture, "The Strange Boarder," star ring Mir. Rogers. "The Strange Boarder" is on at the Palace to- light for the last time.
 Portraying a man of the open plains. robbed by bunco men of the city, and then accused of a crime he did not commit, Rogers has ample opportunity for revelation of the fine humor and the delicate touches of pathos so peculiarly his own.
 Jimmy Rogers. Wills own four year-oId boy. plays the part of Billy Gardner Sans little son, and the work of this tiny lad is not only a charm in itself. but it lends addi- tional effectiveness to Rogers char acterization as well.
 The cast throughout is admirably adapted to the requirements of the story.

 Job McHenry, the city editor, shook his head dubiously. "Not a chance unless" and then he had an inspiration, unless we can get something new on the murder mys- tery-something the other papers didn't get" He went to the phone and called Alma Jordan, the star feminine reborter known in the parlance of the newspaper as the "sob sister And then things popped" as they say in newspaper circles.

This is vastly more important, be- cause the skin pores do not absorb impurities into the blood, while the bowel pores do, says a well-known physician.
 To keep these poisons and toxins well flushed from the stomach. liver kidneys and bowels, drink before breakfast each day, "a glass of hot water with a teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it. This will cleanse, purify and freshen the en- tire alimentary tract, before putting more food into the stomach.
 Get a quarter pound of limestone phosphate from your pharmacist. It Is inexpensive and almost taste less, except a sourish twinge which is not unpleasant. Drink phosphat- ed hot water every morning to rid your system of these vile poisons and toxins; also to prevent their formation.
