RESERVE OFFICERS
 OF HEALTH SERVICE
 HAVE WON BATTLE

Washington, January 5.--CSpeciai) Alabama congressman have been flooded with protests against the plan of the efficiency board of the govern ment headed by Dr. Sawyer the presi- dents personal physician, to disenroll all reserve officers of the public health service engaged in treating patients who were former soldiers.
 Dr. Sawyer says his scheme would save the government $750,000 per an mum. Col. Charles k. Forbes. di- rector of the United States veterans bureau opposes Sawyer.
 The propaganda is not confined to Alabama, but is nation wide. As a result the treasury department an Hounced today that it would withhold an executive order which it had pre- pared for the signature of the Presi dent pending further investigation. There are 1,04O reserve officers in the medical corps. residents of all states. It is apparent that they have won their fight

 TUSCALOOSA REALTY DEALS ARE NUMEROUS

Tuscaloosa, January 5.-(SpeciaL) During the month of December the record shows that s4 sales of real es- tate were made, aggregating the sum of $l66,991.20. Since there are only 27 sales days in December, this re- port shows that there was an aver age of something over three sales day, which would make an average of more than s6,000 per day exchanged for real estate alone during the past month. The month of November shows up better than December. but December has always been consid- cred by local real estate men rather dull month. Considerable activity tn this branch of business is expected to take place here before the year 1922 ends.

 There they are waiting for us.' said Gloria.
 Introductions followed but I was so nervous that I did not catch the names. Ria noticed my excitement and moving over to me, she said: Buck up, Virgie. Buck up. It's all right"
 We moved forward to the entrance of the cocoanut grove and stood just inside waiting a moment for some thing. At the time 1 thought that Herbert Richardson was doing this to make his party conspicuous but found out afterward that he was waiting for the head waiter to show him his table.
 My eyes had never rested upon such a scene. My imagination had never drawn one. The room was riot of color We walked over green grass mats while everywhere were the leaves of the cocoanut palm. The ceiling was draped in brilliant orange The effect was startling especially as all around the sides of the room, women in evening dress were seated about tables placed in tiers. It seemed to me that it was the most beautiful sight had ever seen in my life. Everyone looked happy. The men were smiling and the atmosphere of the room was heavy with the mingled scent of rich food and per fume.
 We were piloted to the most con- spicuous table in the room. To reach it we had to weave our way among innumerable tables and at almost ev- eryone. MT. Richardson bowed in passing. Many of them called to Ria or others In the group and I felt in quisitive glances turned toward me.
 Our table was elaboraterly deco rated with flowers and beside the glasses of water there was an empty tumbler at each place.
 As Ria sat down saw her frown. She was seated at the left of MT. Richardson He had placed me at his

HALL|GAN A

In His Line.

One Of Hammonds young business
men who is making rapid progress In
his line is l.. F. HalIigan. Of the Elec-
trical Contracting and Supply Co. on
F'ayette st, near Calumet avenue
Mr. Haligan's rise in the electrical

ing into business for himself he was
in the employ Of the STANDARD Electric
Company and proved a valuable man
to this concern. Later he FORMED a
partnership and established a business
at the corner Of F'ayette and Walter
st. 1t was here that Mr.. Halligan be
gan TO make his real ascent IN bust
ness Later he decided TO conduct a
business for himself and opened up a
retail and supply store on Fayette near
Calumet avenue. Not a blade Of grass
from that time on bleached out under
young Halligan's feet He put in a
stock of fixtures and appliances that
caused many to almost gasp at. But
it is probable Halligan knew what he
was doing, as he is today considered
one Of the foremost supply men in the
region, He has grabbed off some or
the handsomest contracts ever let in
Hammond, including among them the
Eiks new building on Morton Court.
the Friduss furniture building and the
Ruff building.
Halligan Is making history for him
self, and as the youngest perhaps. OF
all the regions electrician nasr, ne IS
receiving wide recognition. He is 40
ing his part to speed up prosperity IN
doing first class work at the very

member OF the building contrfctors'
