BUENOS AIREs.-The cattle in

JUDGE M'QUEEN

The Choctaw Hunting and Fishing club has been deprived of its beloved president, Judge John Mcqueen. whose death occurred in Birmingham. Ala, on March g, 1921.
 Judge Mcqueen was the founder of our club, and served continually as it's president from the date of it's organiza- tion until his death. and to his untiring efforts. zeal and love of our club the success of every achievement is due.
 He came of a long ancestry, who were prominent in every branch of human en- deavor. and whose names are blazoned on the brightest pages of the glorious his tory of our country; by nature he was mind was cultured and highly attuned to all that was pure and beautiful; to his friends he was as true as steel and there was no sacrifice too great which he would not make to serve those whom he loved.
 He was born lover of nature, and all things beautiful appealed to him. and his artistic soul sought out and discovered Gods handiwork' in forest and field. He loved every branch of sport, and nothing caused him more happiness than when mounted on his horse, he joined in a chase either of the cunning fox or the fleeting deer; and when. at the end of a successful chase, he gathered with his friends, under the hospitable roof of our camp house, no one could picture with more stirring thrill or give more graphic description of the events of the day.
 He never sought to kill for the sake of killing, but enjoyed as every true sports man enjoys the excitement of the cap ture, yet he would have spurned to have ne nv tY1r Col AAa toward the humblest of the animal king dom. When engaged in the chase. fol- lowing the fierce cry of the pack, he resembled his ancient ancestors, some of whom were chiefs of the Scottish High lands. and one could almost picture the reincarnation of the martial spirit of those ancient Scottish chiefs.
 He probably attended more of our hunts than any other member, and his presence brought joy and laughter. happi- ness and contentment; and his greatest looked after and made to feel in the highest measure the hospitality of the camp. Therefore. be 1t resolved:
 That in the death of Judge McQueen this club has suffered loss which can never be supplied; that we feel like the ruling spirit of the club has been taken, and that we shall never cease to miss his pleasant smile, his cheery spirit and sparkling conversation 1t all of our fu- ture gatherings. But while feeling these sentiments. yet we know that we have been blessed in having the opportunity to have been so closely associated with our dear departed in the many happy gatherings of the past, and we feel as if his spirit will be in our midst, and that his influence will be felt through out the future life of our club. Be it further resolved:
 That a page of our record be ret aside to the memory of Judge Mcqueen. and that these minutes be inscribed thereon. and that proper tablet be placed by our club in the camp houss as . fitting memorial to perpetuate his memory.

EVANGELIST IS
 CALLED ID LOCAL
 BAPTIST CHURCH

Rev. A. F. Beddow, the evangelist who is conducting the services at Cav airy Baptist church during the city, wide revival meeting, has accepted a call to the pastorate of this church. He will assume charge of this church about June 15.
 Dr. Beddow is & resident of Dallas Texas. and was educated at the Uni versity Military school of Dallas and at the Southwestern Baptist Theological seminary at Fort Worth, Texas. For sev- eral years he was pastor of the Laredo, Texas, church, but is at present mem- Der of the evangelistc staff of the Bap- tist church.
 This church is'most unique in that 1t Is erecting a large tabernacle although it hasn't had a pastor since the first of the year. However, the work is going forward and within the next year this tabernacle will be ready for occupancy
 Several years ago Sunday school ad- dition was erected and this is now in- adequate for the Sunday school At the suggestion of Dr. F. H. Harrington of the home mission board it was decided to erect a two-story tabernacle, the upper floor to be used for a pastorium.
 According Ito members of this church as soon as the tabernacle Is completed they will immediately begin tearing : down the Sunday school addition erected a number of years ago and will begin construction on s50000 church building The tabernacle then will be torn away and handsome parsonage built on the site.
 This church has a membership of more than 300, while the enrolment at Sunday school is approximately 200. During the past five months the attendance has been doubled, according to leaders of that church. and indications are that the attendance will be largely increased when the new pastor comes to take charge
 "Although we have been without a pas- tor for several months, we have kept our work going and are progressing on our tabernacle" said G. c. Quillin, sup erintendent of the Sunday school. Last year during the city-wide revival Rev. Beddow conducted the services at our church and so pleased were we with him that this year we asked to have him as- sigaed to us. Yesterday we called him and he accepted. We feel most gratifie l in securing the services of this talented pastor, who not only is a. good preacher, but good mixer and possesses one of the most delightful personalities I have ever met, to lead us. Under his guid- ance we expect to become one of the largest churches of the denomination in this district

FIRST FREIGHT AT ! NEW RATE COSTS
 REACHES MOBILE
Shipment From New England to Birmingham by Water Transportation-Heavy
 Financial Saving

First freight for Alabama mer- chants under the new rail-and-water rate via the Mallory and Warrior barge lines from the east has arrived at port of Mobile, coming in the steamer Lake Freeland. It will start up river at once.
 The initial. cargo consists of hard ware for Birmingham and Tuscaloosa merchants. The rate via the Mallory line and the Warrior is 20 per cent under the all-rail rate. The first class all-rail rate is $2.1s, and the rail and water is $1.75. There is a saving of 43 cents in each hundred pounds of freight
 The new rate went into effect April and was the result of long fight to obtain the same. aa
 Next boat will bring large con signm ent of carpets for Goodall Brown & Co.,, Birmingham wholesalers, from eastern mills.
 On June 30 Nashville will lose its freight rate from the east of $1.66 and one of $2.10 will be substituted by order of the interstate commerce com mission. Birmingham's rail and water rate of st.75 will give this city an ad- vantage of 35 cents over Nashville in reaching northern Alabama and the Tennessee valley.
 Birmingham shippers. who have been working on the new water rate for years, declare it is the opportunity of a life time." That expression was used by Murray Brown, president of Goodall Brown & Co.,, in referring to the advantage that the new rate af- lords Birmingham over Nashville.
 The Warrior self propellers with their steel weather-proof containers and their covered hatchways will be able to handle any kind of merchandise.
 Delivery will be at warehouse, doors the same as if shipment was all-rail.

AN ACE IF CLUBS AT NATIONAL CAPITAL
New Civitan Club Given Com plimentary Title By Noted
 CortooniSt

Dick Mansfield, cartoonist, in a recent issue of the Washington CD. O Times gave to the Washington Civitan club the very appropriate name of An Ace oI Clubs" The cartoon accompanying this caption appeared at the head of full page of Current Events" in which the most notable happenings of the week are recorded in interesting cartoons, which have brought to this artist inter national fame.
 The Washington Civitan club was re- gently organized by Col E. B. Morris, field representative. Seventy-five mem bers were enrolled at the time of clos ing the charter, with Edward $. Brashers as president; Joseph H. Milans, first vice president, and Charles E. Hood, secre- tary. The prominence of these men IS indicative of the strong personnel of the club as whole, and great things may be expected from them in the civic life or our national capital
 AS a notable achievement of the Bir- mingham Civitan club, the Washington Times says: The first Civitan club was organized in the spring of 1916 in Bir- ,rnngham, Ala. It inaugurated and d1- rected g. campaign for the registration of voters and payment of poll taxes. It enlisted the aid and cooperation of other civic bodies, and as a result of this cam paign more than 12O0O new voters quail fled in Jefferson county, Alabama, be- tween December 1, 1919, and March l, 1920 and 8 total of s60,0O0 in poll taxes was paid.'
 This campaign for the registration Of voters is considered one of the biggest movements ever inaugurated by civic body. The greater the number of voters in community the greater will be the satisfaction in the so-called majority rule. The Builders of Good Citizenship have sounded the keynote to better citizen ship, and other cities are enthusiastically following their lead.
 The International Association of Civi- tan Clubs has become factor of real civic importance during the first year of it's existence, and the fast pace set by it's officers with the cooperation of five field representatives, headed by Civitan Kenneth F. Smith, bids fair to build up for Civitan the reputation not of An Ace of Clubs but the Ace of Aces"
