 Genuine Talent
 Miss Kate Burke and Miss Mary Vigo have succeeded as saleswomen because of their genuine talent for the work; they know people; espe- cially their own clientele; they know clothes; they know style when they see it; and what's more, they are honest in advising customers what to buy and what not to buy.
 "A fat lady, or I should say, a plump lady. who wants to wear bouf- fante draperies would never forgive a saleswoman who sold her such a style, even though she believes that 1t is what she really wants" Miss Burke will tell you; flor the first time she meets some friend who is hrutally frank, she will hear how tremendous her new gown makes her look. and then she rushes back to the shop where she has purchased the gown and off goes somebody's head Whereas, if at first the saleswoman could have tactfully told her how much more becoming some other style of gown was to her figure, and then

 Distinct Compliment
 Both Miss Burke and Miss Vigo had their start in business at Kaufman's, some 10 years ago, and later at Saks' they gained further knowledge as the years went on and now they have achieved the management of the ex- elusive business which they are con- ducting, which is the brief story of their success.

received from the Alabama Power company employees up to last night were considerably more than $5,000, and John R. Lester, secretary of the Auburn club, declares that this fund will be moreethan doubled before the campaign closes.
 At many places every employe of the company has already become a subscriber. The amounts received to date range from 5 cents to $500, ac- cording to the financial circum- stances of the contributor. Due to the absence of Thomas W Martin, president of the Alabama Power company, in Washington, definite de- cision as to the amount of the sub scription of that corporation has not yet been reached. But progress of the campaign among the employees assures that more than $10,00O will be raised among the men and women who are working for the power com pany through the offices of the Au- burn club.
 A subscription was received by Chairman DeBardeleben yesterday from Capt. T. c. Locke, who is now stationed at the quartermaster' de- pot of the United States army at Atlanta. Captain Locke, an Auburn alumnus and a former football star, sent his subscription for s250. He is well known in Birmingham through his connection for several years as a major in the adjutant generals of flee of Alabama and as an officer in the world war.
 The largest individual subscription received at headquarters yesterday was one of $500 from the Crane company. Six employees of the Ala bama Power company contributed $100 each. They were George K. Miller, George B. Foss, R. O. Con- well. H. L. Evans, o. w. Tidweil and J. B. Thigpen.

pointed out that the question of SEN
iority which the executives rejected
as outlined recently in a settlement
plan proposed remains in dispute and
bars a settlement
The presidents kilograms were
made public at the White House at l
O'Clock after the executive held an
other conference with Mr.. Jewell and
other strike leaders and with Chair
man Cummins of the enate inter
state committee. who has
c%utives.
Final Proposal
The statement was authoritatively
made at the White House in connec-
ton with the call issued by the presi-
dent that Mr.. Harding regarded his
proposals as a final proposal from
the government for voluntary action
by the railroads and employees to n
the menace to the countrys interests
which the administration sees in the
paralysis of transportation, partlcu-
larly in coal fields. The proposals to
day were made without consultation
with railroad executives and the presi-
dent does not know what will be the
attitude Of the labor unions, it was
added.
Settlement through the railroad la
Dor board, the president was SAID to
believe, is the only practical course for
the government 10 seek. The presl-
dent. it was added, considers the sug-
gestions just made as representing the
judgment of one who has been stand
ing in between the parties to the
controversy. The president, it was
stated, trusts the new proposal Will
draw the support Of public opinion
and will bring a speedy ending of the
strike now in its sixth week.
The text of the telegram sent to
Mr.. Jewell follows:
Il have your communication IN
which you and your associates, speak
ing for the striking railway shopmen,
pledged your agreement to the pro-
posal which J submitted TO the railway
executives and your organizations tor
the settlement of the pending railroad
strike. Inasmuch as | was acting as
n voluntary mediator, seeking the
earliest possible settlement, | confess
to you the same disappointment which
| have conveyed to the executives that
the terms were not unanimously ac-
ceptpd. As you gre already aware;
the executives of the carriers declared
their inability to restore seniority
rights unimpaircd.
1T is exceedingly gratifying, how
ever. that ia responding to the terms
which were proposed that both the
spokesman for the carriers and the
spokesman for the employees haye
pledged that they will recognize tine
validity OF all decisions by the railroad
labor board and TO faithfully carry out
such decisions as contemplated by the
law. Moreover. Spokesman for the
carriers and the employees have APP
proved the second paragraph of the
proposal and in their approval have
agreed that railroad labor board de-

the strike may be taken, in the exer-
else of recognized rights, by either
party to the railroad labor board for
rehearing.' Inasmuch as the employees
have agreed to all the terms proposed
and the executives have agreed to all
the terms proposed and the executives
