BUTTER PUTS
COLUMBUS ON
CREAMERY MAP,

Birmingham, the Magic City, is
waking up to the value of Columbus
butter and contracts have been closed
by Mr.. ID. S. Cox, manager of the
Columbus Ice Cream and Creamery
Company, for large daily and weekly
of butter to the grocery
stores and restaurants Of the Alaba-
ma city.
The fine quality Of the Columbus
butter is appealing to the Birming-
ham people, and the demand there for
it is increasing every day. In recent
tests the Columbus butter scored high
er than other buffers going into the
Magic City and this gave the Column
bus product a tremendous impetus.
1t looks like it's going to be left to
timid, unprogressive butter to put
Columbus on the map, but the product
of the dairy COW is doing its work aad
doing it well.

RANKIN PUTS
in RELIC BILL
FOR COLUMBUS
Hopes to Get War Cannon for This
City.-Introduces Bill in
Congress.

In response to a letter from Mr.. r.
E. Johnston, chairman of the War
Relics Committee of the Chamber of
Commerce, Congressman J. f. Rankin
advises that he has introduced bill in
the House to authorize the Secretary
of War to donate to Columbus a Ger
man cannon or field-piece. Mr.. Ran
kin hopes to secure this war relic for
us in due course of time, and it is
possible that he may be able to obtain
other relics later on. There is a mad
scramble for war relics from other
members of Congress, but Mr.. Rankin
assures us that he will leave nothing
undone which might benefit Columbus.
In his letter to Mr.. Johnston,
Congressman Rankin says;
Permit me to say that ! am inter-
ested in every enterprise or PROPOSE
tion that will help the people of your
city or county, and / want you and
your organization to feel perfectly
free to call upon me for my services
at any time. If | can help you in the
matter Of your national highways, in
opening up and developing your neg
lected waterway, in assisting your
wounded or disabled veterans Of the
World War, or in facilitating your
postal accommodations, or in any
other way, please be assured it will
give me pleasure to devote my time
and attention to the accomplishment
of those ends"

hand and presented the matter to the
young ladies in the dining room Sum-

tributions. Many of them made real
sacrifices of clothing in order to help

clothing she could spare from her
wardrobe, brought in a bag of nice
clean rags, stating that they might be
of some service" said Miss Sale, in
