There seems to be a general conviction that it still does not pay to wait longer on house building with a view to prices coming down. In some lines prices are hardening Men of dis cernment are more inclinded to build homes of character than at any time since the trend away from home building on account of cost set in.
 We are also doing a ste1dy and regular business in dispos- ing of residence lots in more un- pretentious, but nice neighbo-- hoods. Sales of lots at Central Park and other places like that are taking place all the time, and the purchasers arc building homes.
 Altogether, the home building idea appears to me to be more general and widely spread than it has been since the beginning of the World war"

 Residence lots are the only class of property that did not ad- vance with the other increases issuing out of and incident 10 the war. Lots in the high class restricted neighborhoods cost ao more now than they did. How ever, with the recent squirt in purchasing and the early profits made by some of the buyers on resale, l would not be surprised 10 see good residence property advance.
 "The sales in the neighbor- hoods mentioned have been to citizens able and intending to- erect residences in harmony with the surroundings. It is the out bursting of the home instinct so long held back by high cost of materials and the like.

That a sportsman was a gentleman par excellence, and that he would not
 take from natures storehouse any
 more than was needed for himself
 and family, and would conserve the remainder, was one of the high
 lights in the address delivered last
 night by John H. Wallace, fish and
 game commissioner, before the Ems
 ley Fish and Game club.
 The distinguished visitor, who is
 known all over America for hls nota-
 ble work in the conservation of ani-
 nal life was received by a very rep
 representative gathering at the Elks club. The meeting lasted until 9:30
 o'clock. when practically every one
 present went to the Franklin theatre
 to view number of reels depicting
 game and fish in this country, in
 which the attendants evidenced un- usual interest.
 Commissioner Wallace reached
 Ensley in company of Dr. E. T. Fields, president of the club and Ed Warnick. secretary, about o'clock. He was introduced by MT. Warnick in a short speech, in which the local citizen indicated the interest in the sportsmen club, and the pleasure everyone felt in having Mir. Wallace present.
 Mir. Wallace did not lose any words in getting to the gist of his talk, He said that many men who claim to be sportsmen were very wanton in their destruction of game, and asked the question how many men did lis auditors know who, when they had
 enough fighting bass for their own needs or enough quail, was willing to leave for the day and were content with what they had secured? Commissioner Wallace urged upon his hearers the necessity of conserv- ing the fish and game life of this state, the south and the nation, and gave figures which indicated the re- markable increase which one could reasonably expect If ever- hunter or fisherman would only apply the rule of reason, and only take what he and
 his family needed, and would coop
 crate In other ways in maintaining
 the laws of Alabama designed for the
 protection of fish and game in the state
 The address of MT. Wallace was of absorbing interest, and enjoyed thoroughly by everyone who attend ed the meeting. After the speaking
 MT. Wallace was introduced to the
 members of the local club.

 That 60 Italian families have taken leave of the Birmingham district dur ing the past week bound for Italy, and that many additional families are planning to leave here very soon was reported in Ensley yesterday. It was stated that a special train was required to take care of the Italians leaving here this week which was bound for New York from which port they have booked passage to Italy.
 It was also stated that very sub stantial number of Italians are leay- Ing this district for Colorado and other western states. The reason for the exodus to Italy is said to be the great difference between the Ameri- can dollar and the Italian lire which when exchanged gives very decided advantage to persons possessing the American coin
 Most of the Italians and Greeks that are laborers in this section We're brought to the district by the in- dustrial companies when labor was hard to obtain. It is stated that the industrial operators expect a very decided improvement in operations soon and that before January 1, there is expected to be a labor deficit in this district IL Is well known that the industrial operators have agreed that the negro is the real dependabls labor for the industrial companies and that future developments here must be done with negro labor.
