try. In attendance were the Red
Cross Gray Ladies" from Walter

wells, with the Red Cross TO desig-
nate their affiliation.
The nurses, some in trim dark blue,

great deal to the effectiveness OF the
picture.
To the Red Cross fell the respon-
sibility and privilege OF arranging the

goodly complement of private cars
were made available.

On account of improved business

On account of improved business conditions, it was announced yes terday that the American Steel and Wire company had re-employed ad- ditional men and that an additional department of the wire plant would resume operation next Monday.
 The wire plant. 1t is stated, will give places to some of its employees that have been out of employment some time or that have been work ing shorter hours and perhaps there will be places for others. It is stated that the rod mill of the wire plant Is working double turn and the nail mill is also working night and day.
 The wire plant officials are not in- clined to give out any official infor- circles the employment of additional men at the wire plant and the pros poets of more men being employed created unusual interest and gave rise to considerable optimism. It is stated that this step by the wire company will be followed later by the resumption of greater opera tons in other departments of the plant that have been either idle or operating on the reduced schedule. In all respects the situation at the Fairfield works of the American Steel and Wire company shows very marked improvement. according to well informed men at Fairfield.

Belgium, the party ended up their tour at Ostend and returned to Paris thence to Havre and back home.
 Jack Bowron was on the pro- gramme for a talk, but on account of the lateness of the hour he stated that at the next meeting he would make his report on the "battlefields" of France.
 D. J. Winslett, who is connected with the cleanup squad that is tour ing the state under the auspices of the veterans bureau, made an appeal for cooperation, stating that the board expects to hear the cases of many casualties of the war when they come here.
 Foch May Come Here
 MT Murphy reported that he had discussed with Marshall Foch his coming visit to America as the guest of the American Legion and that the marshal had evinced great interest in visiting Birmingham, but had stat ed that his itinerary In the United States was being arranged by the pressed the belief that if the proper invitations were extended Marshal Foch by the various organizations and officials of Birmingham and the state, that he probably would arrange to visit this city in Novem- Der.
 The plans for the visit of Marshal Foch after the American Legion con- vention at Kansas City November 1, are declared to be tentative and MT. Murphy declared that if united ac- tion were secured. he was confident that the necessary arrangements could be made for the visit. A com mittee consisting of Leon c. Bradley, chairman, Matt H. Murphy and Dr. J. r. Hardin was named to investi- gate the possibilities and report to the executive committee.
 c. N. Wiley. president of the Boys club, addressed the post on the work of the club and asked that the mem bers give careful consideration to the claims of that organization. He ex- pressed the belief that the legion could render valuable service by aiding this organization. A commit tee was named to investigate the matter and report later it's recom- mendations.

CUT THIS OUT
OLD ENGLISH RECIPE FOR cATARRH, CATARRHAL DEAFNESS AND
 HEAD NOISES

If you know of some one who is troubled with Catarrhal Deafness. head noises or ordinary catarrh cut out this formula and hand it to them and you may have been the means of saving some poor sufferer perhaps from total deaf ness In England scientists for long time past have recognized that catarrh is a cons titutional disease and neces- sarily requires constitutional treatment
 Sprays. inhalers and nose douches are liable to irritate the delicate air pas sages and force the disease into the middle ear which frequently means total deaf ness. or else the disease may be driven down the air passages towards the lungs which is equally as dangerous. The follow. ing formula which is used extensively in the damp English climate is constitu- tional treatment and should prove espe- cially efficacious to sufferers here who live under more favorable climate con- ditions.
 Secure from your druggist ounce of Parmint Double strength Take this home and add to it A pint of hot water and little granulated sugar; stir until issolved. Take one tablespoonful four times a day. This will often bring quick relief from distressing head noises. Clogged nostrils should open, breathing become easy and hearing improve as the inflammation in the custodian tubes is directly upon the blood and mucous sur faces of the system and has . tonic action that helps to obtain the desired results. The preparation is easy to make, coats little and is pleasant to take. Every per son who has catarrh or head noises or is hard of hearing should give this treat ment . trisl,-Adv.

"One of the greatest Institutions of the age." Miss Hilton said, and it is hobby of mine, is the talking n-achine which so beautifully repro- duces the human voice. I think it has done more to educate people than any other one thing musically; in small towns where no good music Is ever heard; where the great singers, operas, concerts, and orchestra are never heard, the talking machine takes the voice-whether John Me- Cormack's, Carusos, Galli- -Curci's. or Melba s-right into the home, and 1t is heard at it's best, because it must be perfect, else the record would never be accepted"
 My ambitions?" she smiled pret- tily, as she extended her hand to say good bye cordially. "Oh. of course it Is to go back to opera--at least to go into grand opera-per- haps the Metropolitan. perhaps the Chicago. Mary Garden is making 1t quite possible. as dirxtrix of the Chi cago Opera Asspciation, for American girls to get their chance, so long awaited, as she has not only an nounced that she will encourage and assist American girls to sing in the Chicago opera, but she has already carried out her intentions in several instances"

MURPHY TELLS OF VISIT ID FRANCE
 AND bATTLEF|ELDS
Says Marshal Foch May Come to Birmingham in November if Sufficient
 Iy Urged Now

"This is statement, and not a confession" said Mathew H. Mur- phy, past commander of the Ala bama department of the American Legion, in opening a talk in which he gave an account of the trip made by legionnaires from nearly every state in the union to France and Bel gium as guests of the French repub- lie and the Belgian kingdom, the speech being made at the regular meeting of Birmingham Post No. 1 in the Civic Association rooms last evening.
 "As compensation for having been compelled to listen to scores ct set speeches" stated MT. Murphy the Americans were accorded signal honors wherever they went, among them being the privilege of alight- ing at Cherbourg or long Brussels carpet that had been taken from storage for the first time since 1t was
 
 stretched to make an easy path for the royal feet of King Edward VII of England
 Signal Honor
 Another signal honor accorded the Americans, said Mir. Murphy, was the drawing of the chains that en- compass the Arc of Triumph beneath which there is buried the body of an unknown poilu taken from the battlefields of France. This was the first time those chains had been drawn to allow anyone to pass, and that was done on specific command of Marshal Foch, who stated; The Americans always advance; they never retreat" It was stated that around this arch at all hours of the day and night women gather to weep and pray. believing that their sons may be among the unknown dead.
 Among the other places visited were Paris, Bordeaux, Lyons, Fliery, the birthplace of Marshal Foch, the chateau of President Millerand. the fortress of Strassburg. Metz. Thiau- court, verdun, Chateau Thierry. Bell leau Wood, and other fields of car mage. MT Murphy stated that at verdun they are still finding an av- craze of hundred bodies day. At Thiaucourt he visited the grave of Capt. Gardner Greene of the 167th infantry.
 Visit Belgium
 From France the party went to Brussels. where they were entertain ed by King Albert. all of whom had the pleasure of shaking hands with that great warrior and statesman. When the King noticed the limp of Cot Henley, one of Birmingham's del- egates. said Mir. Murphy he engaged the Birmingham man in conversation for about five minutes. 1 Both the King and the President bf France. MT. Murphy said, are very demo cratic and mingled freely with the American ex-soldiers.

 T can't get very far away from grand opera even In my vaudeville work" said Miss Hilton, flor I in- troduce both 'Un bel di' from my fayorite Butterfly and 'Si Saran Rose the lovely Arditti waltz song, in my act as well as simpler things.
 "The psychology of an audience Is one of the most interesting things in the world" Miss Hilton continued. After I have sung my first song on my programme I can very nearly tell what my audience likes I all ways use several popular numbers because they are always in demand; and I am doing 8 new Rainbow song now which bids fair to be very pop ular.'
 Between times I do some com posing" Miss Hilton told me, and sometimes I use as an encore some of my own songs; however, singing three times day doesn't leave very n.uch in the encore line if one has any voice left at all"

CANDIDATES TELL
 OF ASPIRATIONS Many Speak at Meeting at East Lake Yesterday
 Evening

Cooperation and ordination will be the chief purposes of ". l.. liar rson If he is elected to the ctiy com mission, he told a crowd of about 800 persons at the William L. White meeting in East Lake park last night.
 Labor is not trying to dominate or control the commission, he said, as it is indorsing only one candidate out of five. Heretofore it has been the complaint that labor has wanted the upper hand, he declared. Now they are showing that they merely want representation.
 William l.. White made the sug- gestion that an assistant recorder be designated, already an employe of the city, who can accept pleas of guilty at night, obviating the necessity for W Working and business men and wom- en coming into court during the day. Placing of policemen with motor cycles in fire stations was also ad vocated.
 M. A. Dinsmores urged policy of zoning and rigid enforcement Of laws against receiving stolen prop erty. He continued his attack on Commissioners Brown, Taylor and Hornady.
 Joseph E. Lacey told of his work in enforcing the law while he was mayor of Pratt City. He declared that he would be for an efficient business administration of the city's affairs: He stated that courtesy to all would be his motto.
 S. R. Batson told of his ability to handle streets and sewers, having had 12 years practical experience in the highway department of the county.
 Others who spoke at the meeting were J. D. Truss, Mrs. Myrtelle Sneil ". E. Cloe, D. E. McLendon, ". O. Broyles, Mrs. Mary Echols, W. H. Barnard, w. E. Dickson, Mrs. B. A. Cooper, J. w. Lacey and Rob Adams, Robert I. Wheeler was chairman of the meeting.

plight it's force, and thus become in volved in European affairs?
 These questions are regarded iG Washington ss highly pertinent Tn view of that position, it is already indicated, England, France and Ja- pan will take.
 To Demand Substitute
 It Is understood that every nation to be represented in the conference will agree on the advisab bility of re- ducing land and sea power both for the preservation of peace, and the alleVation of the burden of the tax payer of the world.
 But all of them, with the exception of the United States, will demand some substitute for the eliminated
 of protection.
 France, it is said, would jump at a chance" 10 reduce its standing army which France supports only at great financial sacrifice. But France 1t Is understood, will demand pro- tection against it's heredity enemy, Germany,
 England would reduce its sea force, it is said. But, according to what is discussed in Washington England will demand guarantee that in the event of war. 1t be not detached from sources of food. And Japan, it is reported, will insist on asylum for its overflow population.
 VIII Mean League
 If the nations enter into solemn agreement with guarantees, the na- tions will have formed a league of nations, If the discussion of the na- tions is academic and its conclusions merely idealistic, there Is grave doubt entertained by statesmen in Washington that the result will be binding or effective
 It is understood that former Pres ident Wilson. whose dream of a world bound together for peace was rudely shattered by the political element which now is attempting to arrive at fts goal by another route, is very hopeful that the conference will be 
 It Is understood, however, that his inslmates have heard him say that the conference cannot succeed unless the nations form an alliance and per msnently remain allied.
