 Indeed Mrs. Cory 1aughingly added when the teachers were ill or otherwise indisposed, if it wasn't higher mathematics I often filled their absent days with what l be- leved to be great dignity and great intelligence. We also had literary clubs which both young ladies and young pen attended and enjoyed" Husband Age-Hernid Managing

 Mrs. Cory returned to Birmingham after brief absence as the bride. of Mir. chappell Cory, who was the managing editor of The Age-H Herald then, one of the most cultured and highly educated men of this day and time, always a public spirited and valued citizen of the Magic City.

 Service. First. Last and Always
 And so all the effort If Mrs. Cory's days has been spent in making her life one of service" and now her willingness to serve In the coming state legislature means but one more added effort to years of effort.
 At one time Mrs. Cory was vice president of the Federation of Women's Clubs; she has served as president of the Alabama division of the United Daughters of the Con federacy; during the World war she was the recording secretary of the Jefferson County Council of Defense, and is now vice president of the state Woman's Christian Temperance Union and regent of the First White House Association of Alabama. And she Isl a valued member of the League of Women Voters.
 Having been in constant attendance on all the great women's conventions both national and state she has taken a prominent part in these delibera- tions and she is eminently fitted to hold her own in any debate in the house of representatives or any where else.
 Mrs. Cory has assisted in the pas sage of many bills at one time helping Mrs. R. D. Johnston in her Boys Industrial school bills, assist ing Tn getting appropriations for Com federate monuments of old soldiers, also in temperance legislation, es- pecially for the teaching of scientific temperance in schools; she was leg islative chairman of the committee which had such hard but winning battle to preserve the historic old first White House of the Confederacy and assisted in many other progres. sive state measures.
 Mrs. Cory's Pledge
 Declaring her intention of being of service" to her fellowwoman, her city, her country and her state, Mrs. Cory says:
 ''If elected to the legislature of the state of Alabama I pledge myself to work for educational interests, es- peciaily; for bills for the betterment of women and children; social condi- ticns; and the best interest of all our war veterans. believe in law enforcement and it is one of the strong blanks of my platform"

extremely democratic, valuing people for what they are, rather than who they area mighty wise and sem sible attitude to live by.
 Mrs. Cory's life is indissolubly in- volved in Birmingham's affairs-for since way back wonder when her father, Dr. Armstrong. who was an educator of distinction as yell as a minister of the gospel, established one of the first large private schools in this city until the present day she has known and has been affili- ated with the literary people of this community as we'll as others, al- ways enjoying the eompanionship of those who proved themselves worthy.

 The theme provides an exciting plot involving strike. forgery and mur- der, with a criminal who cleverly de- fies detection. During the course of an absorbing love story with it's un- usual solution of the eternal triangle. are caught up in the swift current of events a red -blooded' hero, face 10 face with an unbalanced world; a spirited American girl returned from overseas service; a fascinating mill girl; an autocratic manager of the old type; workmen who're labor is both counterfeit and real; treach- erous secretary; philosophic crippled veteran who regards life from an "airplane" view. other ex-soldiers who are social misfits because of their ground view: an aristocratic dreamer who becomes a democratic doer
 The author has personally watched the American girl in service in France and had communed with the dough- boy in action and relaxation: he has observed sympathetically their strug- gles to readjust themselves to prevail ing conditions; he has for years been a large employer of labor and knows what goes on inside the workmen's heads. All this gives to the story an impelling sense of authority

 When serious minded and deter mined young man from the wilds of Canada is appointed guardian to the estate of beautiful and wilful English girl, not so much younger than himself both romance and drama are likely to follow The ec- centric old gentleman who arranged the scheme knew what he was doing. though for a time it seemed that he had mixed things up pretty thor oughly.
 How the man from the wilds' James himself. and his ward also, and saves her from great danger by heroic struggle against primI- tive men and nature in his native wilderness, makes a tale of satisfy ing thrill.
 The virile spirit of the story is suggested by the hero's voicing of the pioneers creed: Tn the north, nature is boss,-so far. but. not for good. Mans a conquering animal. He's up against nature and he's got to win. Give us timber and iron and we'll break the wildernessw

 Would he dare the second crime? z
 And could he, on short notice, de- wise a plan for getting it accom- plished, so diabolically crafty as to defy detection and further complicate discovery of the first crime?
 The detective put on the job is no fool, but 1t takes pretty keen anna teurs to help him ferret out the dou- bie secret. One of them. a girl of pe- culiar winsomeness. in mysterious woman's way has more to do wi.h the final dramatic denouement than the detective himself
