 WATERWAY ISSUE
In 1922 Club Will Continue Plans for Fifth Avenue
 illumination

Pushing the Fifth Avenue White be one of the big duties of the Civi- tan club, according to announcement of officers made yesterday. and the appointment of a committee to con tinue work on the plans to emblazon Fifth avenue from the Terminal sta- ton to the Tutwiler with a blaze of light at night by installation of an ornamental lighting system.
 Resolutions asking the county au- thorities to appropriate sufficient funds to assure the continuance of the detention hospital and the free venereal clinic were passed, and Sid- ney J. Bowie and Percy Brewer were named to assist Dr. Courtney w.. Shropshire in representing the club before the county board of revenue yesterday afternoon when the mat ter came up.
 Because of action taken yesterday future luncheons will be held on the second floor of the Tutwiler weekly and will be discontinued at the Southern club.
 The Fifth Avenue Whiteway com- mittee was appointed, with F. Y. Whitman, chairman, and Frank But Ter, Charles c. Davis, Hugo l.. Black and R. M. Jenkins.
 R. NJ. Jenkins won the attendance prize, kodak.
 Ross c. Smith, coal operator, was admitted to memb ship.
 In referring to the resolution con corning the detention hospital, Sid ney J. Bowie stated that too little attention was being paid to human life and too much attention to ma terial things by those appropriating money for such purposes.

 Officer Pierce believes this is the first time dogs under arrest have hs d their picture taken. They were do- cile and posed admirably for the camera.
 When guarding stills they showed fierceness, but now they are tame and show a particular liking for fed eral employees whether officers or mailmen.
 Ring bears a state license tag. The owners, who are relatives of one of the men arrested recently by federal officers, have made no legal attempt to regain the dogs

 How does the little refrain go? When a stranger appears at the door, take him in" It's been re- versed. When a stranger appears be taken in"
 Of course the commissioners were disappointed within an inch of the nth degree. Their intentions had been the best in the world. To throw a protecting arm around the city's poor was noble thought, but in their sus- pense they forget the expense.
 The idea properly has been finally soaked in that the next time a con tract is made with a snowman, that the thing shall be drawn up in writ ing. with stipulation being made as to what shall and what shall not be charged as expenses With so many loopholes, MT. Rudolph could have added on the shaving soap, the wear and tear to his toggery, tips to wait CTS postage stamps, car fare, cigars, laundry bill, pressing bill and a thou sand other things. Out of the good ness of his heart, and probably be- cause the Christmas spirit had over taken him. he desisted.
 The only moral to be gained by the city commission from this yarn is:
 Beware of the slick city fellers." "
