Last year SOS meals were served by
the army organization, while 165 beds

STORE A MONEY SAVER
The store Of the army is also money
saver for poor families of the city, who
may come there and pick out articles OF
clothing, furniture and whatever else is
donated to the army. for purchase at
normal sum. This money covers the cost
of collecting donated articles only and
amounts to Is or 90 cents. This policy
has also been adopted to keep the CHAR
ty stigma from preventing purchasers
from visiting the store.
Only one act is required OF all who ac-
cept the bounty of the Salvation army
at this home Every one must attend the
chapel services at o'clock Sunday morn
ing This does not prevent attendance at
other churches. In fact. according to
Captain Housden, the men are urged to
go to the nearest church of their de-
nomination after the chapel services.
Each man who stays at the home pays
five cents week to a fund to defray
burial and hospital expenses The men
working there are all advanced in years
and they are thus assured of a decent
resting place.
AS vacancies occur in the eventide
homes at Tappan, New York and Cleve-
land, Ohio, the inmates of the homes are
sent there to spend the rest of their
days without any work at all

ti9n field, primarily for the use of the
squadron, but also available for aerial
mail service and for use of any cross
country filters passing by this city. and
win put Birmingham on the aerial
map of the United States.
"Thc advantages OF establishing
birmingham as air port may
net he evident 10 many people at
this time" said Il. w. Stanford,
"but good landing fields are to
aeropianes what good harborS are
to ships. And the time is not far

Through the efforts OF Congressman
w. B. oliver and Col. William Mitchell,
assistant chief of air service at Wash

ed that two large steel hangers now in

desire All men will, therefore, have
an opportunity to fly.

REGULATE DRIVERS

81 am in favor of not only regulating
the jitney and bonding it, but regu-
lating the character of the driver as
well. The city should be careful to
Whom it issues a permit to operate
jitney. The Woodlawn jitneys oper-
ate as far as Sixty-fifth street, yet
there are scores of people living be-
yond that who walk two or three
blocks just to ride in them, showing
that the public wants the jitney.'
Miss Gene Thomas, 1909 Twenty
ninth street north. said: IF you are
in hurry to get any place. there is
the jitney to depend upon in most sec
tons If town. You do not have to wait
for the street car, that perhaps stops
every block or two. The jitney hauls
less passengers at a trip, so it can go
great distance without stopping for
a passenger to get off or on.
Under present conditions, jitneys
are operating just about as they please
and charging whatever fare they can.
If they We're regulated, it would be
much better for all concerned. They
should be bonded, and made response
BILE in case of accident, the same as
street car, for both are common car
riers."

PART OF DEVELOPMENT

c. E. Michaels. 217 Sixty eighth place,
says: "Jitneys are part of the develop
nent Of Birmingham for they assist in
handling part of the traffic that today
has grown to great proportions. More
people are coming to the city every day
and their transportation is great prob
lem.
If the jitneys were not made to follow
the street cars in the downtown section
there would be less congestion. 1t takes
a street car longer than the jitney to
unload and load it's passengers yet the
jitney must keep behind the car all the
time. 1t would greatly expedite mat
ters if it could get away the minute it
is ready.
