God required thousands of years ago that offerings should bel of the best and He has not changed the standards. Have you been fair1 with God? What kind of sacrifice was yours? If you young people want to give God the best. you ought to start early and not wait until the best years of your life are wasted and then come to God with your bat tered remnants.
 Tt is reasonable that man should be loyal to his family, loyal to his government, but the strongest de- mand that any one has on you and your being is God Almighty, and lie is entitled to the best that is in you"
 In the course Of his sermon, Dr.. Echols also scored those who enjoy the protection of this government and in time, of crisis would refuse to be loyal. and referring to the troubles of England, he said;
 T have the supremest contempt for those Irishmen who, in time of war, tired to stab their governments in the back. And when you look aS me close you will see that there is some Irish in me. The Irish have have nothing but contempt for thoseI who in time of war were faithless) to their government.

ATTALLA'S PLAN I UNDER COMMISSION
City Owns Same, But Has It Leased to Alabama Water
 Company for 27 Years

Montgomery August 2i.-tSpeeial) Although the city of Attsna owns an equity in the waterworks plant which Is leased by the Alabama Water com pany the public service commission has full power over rates under an opinion given to the commission to- day by Hugh White, special assistant attorney general
 The city had challenged the author ity of the commission on the ground that 1t would have been deprived of property rights without due process of law, and on the ground that the commission had no Jurisdiction over plants eowned by municipalities. In regard to the first point for chal- lenge. Mir. White cited a decision of the supreme court which held that the authority of tue commission could not be set aside even though somebody might be deprived of prop erty rights. In the second instance. Mir White cited tSe law which says plants owned and operated by mu- inequalities" do not come under the Jurisdiction of the commission. This eliminated Attalla, because It's plant is leased to the Alabama Water com pany for 27 years.
 But Attalla may see a. silver lining through the clouds. This same de- cision will prevent the railroads which enter Attslla from setting up ths plea that it will lose property rights

PlCKENs COUNTY SCHOOLS ARE AMONG THE BEST

Carrollton. August Specially Miss Stella Curry, elementary super visor of schools in this county is pre- paFing q report that will be made public the coming week, in which the rank of all the schools of the county will be given. According to w. II. Storey. county superintendent of education, this report VIII be quite interesting to the friends of educa- tion and promises some surprises in the rank taken by some>of the schools of the county.
 With good school houses and better equipment, education is rapidly ad- vancing in this county and the day is not far distant when it will rank among theleaders of the south. There are two rural communities in the county at this time building new cost of $7,o0o and another at, Cross Roads. in Bostick beat, at an expendi- ture of $4.000. The latter named is to take the place of two buildings de- 'stroyed by fire last spring by par ties, it is said, who opposed the com pulsory education law
 Another incident that proves the people are interested in education is the fact that many of the school dis tficts of the county have voted an extra 3-mill school tax. while other petitions are, on file. and the meas ure has never been deefated where submitted.

LIVING SACRIFICE

 Mems duty to give the best they have and that(is in them, as an of fering to God, and the necessity fof real living sacrifice to the Al mighty. were the chief points of ths sermon preached by Dr. Robert Echols, presiding elder of the Br- mingham district, at the First Meth- odist church yesterday morning.
 Dr. Echols took as his text Romans 12A, T beseech you, there- fore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice wholly acceptable unto God, which Is your reasonable servicew
 After pointing out the wonderful manner in which the Apostle Paul as a preacher made clear Gods great love for the world and his plan of salvation, Dr. Echois said in part:
 Here Is a man who believes ths best He knew that mind was greater than body and the soul greater than the mind, and when he says here, that ye present your body he means our all. I do not know just where sacrifice began, out the bible tells us that Cain and Abel offered sacrifice and it is reasonable to presume that they learned 1t from their parents.
 But it was a rule of the old tes- lament to offer the best there was. the best bull of the herd, the best sheep of the flock. the best pigeon, The Jews we'll understood this, and

ently in open defiance of the law, our ,eorce has been able to break up any thing of this kind in it's incipiency. Our detective department has won a reputation of being one of the most efficient in the, country.
 Enforce All Laws
 "While there has been a considera- be increase in the fines and costs col lected in the recorders court, this has been due not to making frivo- lous arrests, but rather to the in- creased activity of the policemen in enforcing all the laws and in appre-
 hending more criminals than ever before. Due to the efficiency and the arrests for minor infractions of the law are frequently avoided by judi cious warning. but relentlessness in catching the real criminals has con- stantly~ increased.
 While automobile stealing has be-
 come such a universal crime that Congress Is now taking drastic steps to stop it. we have made better progress in this line than most other cities. Two of the best detectives have been detailed to this work ex- elusively and the best index system of the country has been installed so
 that we are catching a large per centage of these thieves.
 ~.',raken as a whole. Birmingham has reputation throughout the country as the best city in America. morally. and the most dangerous for criminals to come to. Much of the success we have attained with the handicap of too small force has been due to the very healthy sentiment for law en- forcement here Our hands have been upheld by the better people of the community in all our efforts and the members of the derartment appre- ciate the support we have received from practically sil the people of the city.
