Citizens in Outlying Section Found It Necessary to Form Mutual Protective
 Association

During the time that Arlington Place residents had from two to four petty robberies night, citizens of that section banded together in a mutual protective association and patrolled each block.
 The thievery stopped, according to residents, until the guarding was dis continued, when robberies started again.
 Sixty or seventy men were in the or- ganization which met several times on Sunday to discuss plans. Two guards were placed to a block, with captains for the district.
 Visited Thrice
 During the past six or eigh, months there has been during time of practically no protection, two to three petty robberies per night says Frank P. Butler of Arlington.
 My home has been entered three times Others have had the same diff fculty. I don't think there was 8 home missed. We had to band to. gether to protect ourselves
 One of the ways we have avoided this is to place two lights on tht outside at the back fthe houses which lights up the back of our yards The extra light costs money, but we must have protection" Might Have Missed One T know of only one place In Arling ton Place that has missed petty rob. bery lately" says Rufus Bethea, em. ployment manager of the American Legion bureau.
 "Out In the extreme portion of tn, section, known as old Elyton, tn, thievery has been frequent. When I made my suggestion fo ex-soldier guards through American Legion channels, I thought only O cooperation with the commissione of public safety. I had this pett! thieving in mind as we'll as protec ton which is needed against sucl criminals as the ax murderer. "G. P. Small, over in Forest Park says he has been robbed three time and one time many valuables wer taken, amounting to about s3.O0O, believe"

SPORTSMEN'S BOND
 SALE WILL START
Chairman Herman Beck Calls Dinner for Tuesday Night
 to Set Ball Rolling

At a supper to be given at tho Ho- tel Hillman at 6:3O o'clock Tues day night, General Chairman Her man Beck will start the ball rolling in the sale of bonds to raise the fund necessary to purchase the camp site of Camp Oliver" on the Warrior river, which will be the official home of the Alabama Fishermen and Hunt CTS asSocSation.

 Maybe has has looked over all the world just for you.
 A Natural Girl
 You don't have to be pretty: you don't have to be ugly; you don't have to be anyting but just a natural girl. That is the kind of girl who makes a success at almost anything. Who, of all the very famous screen stars. do you think is world beater when 1t comes to good looks? Tho stars are attractive, intelligent look ing, sweet-faced. doll-baby types and everything; but mighty few are what anybody would call just supernatu- rally beautiful.
 You see women on the streets every day who are much prettier than many famous women of the screen.
 It's your ability to screen well" which will count; your ability to act your ability to put funny. happy.

PASTORS UN|ONNOT RESPONSIBLE FOR INDIVIDUAL VIEWS
Formal Statement Says That Union Will Speak Only Over Signature of
 Officers

The Birmingham Pastors union yesterday formally announced that 1t was not responsible for expressions of individual members. Through its president. Dr. Robert N. Simpson, the union announces that it will not speak except officially and over the signature of it's officers. The state ment reads:
 "The Pastors union met Monday morning to consider the following petition signed by hundreds of women of East Lake, asking the Pastors union to aid them in their fight to prevent municipal dance hall at East Lake park:
 "'We, the wives, mothers, home keepers and business women of East Lake, because of the fact that the city park Is situated in our midst. that our community, our homes and 1 our property on this account are necessarily affected as no others of l the city can be; because of the fact that all revelry, dissipation and inn morality in this park involves our homes, our property and our families 1 --auueal to the ministers association of the city of Birmingham, who are 1 the rightful guardians of the morals l of our city, to use their utmost in- | fluence to prevent the opening of a | municipal dance hall in the park. We l feel that such a dance hall, which | necessarily would be open to all classes of people. would draw to our | section of the city the wicked, revel- ing, dissipating portion of our popu- 1 lation, which would be undesirable for any purpse. but when they arc | drawn to a public ballroom which in all ages has been recognized as car iying with 1t train of evils. we feel | that the morals of our community will be jeopardized and that these l nightly revels and dissipation will draw hundreds of the young boys and girls of our community under influences which all reasonable peo- pie would estimate as injurious
 "In response to the above appeal
 from the women of East Lake the
 Pastors union adopted a resolution
 pledglng their assistance to the
 womens of East Lake and appointed a committee composed of two mem bers from each denomination repre-
 sented in the union. The president of the Pastors union Is chairman of
 the committee. It was decided that all public statements coming rom
 the Pastors union should be ir charge of this committee and that the official signature of the presid sn'
 and secretary of the Pastors unior
 should be affixed to all documents
 sent out for publication and that the
 public should be asked to consider
 nothing as coming from the Pastors
 union except such statements as bear
 the official signature. The Pastors
 union did not originate this move
 ment to open a municipal dance hal at East Lake and up to this time has
 made no public statement. We can
 not be responsible for statements
 made by various ministers in theil individual pulpits. Every man usoi
 his own methods in fighting evil anC he alone is responsible flor his meth
 ods- The Pastorsf union will no speak except officially and over thu
 signature of it's officers.
