Captain DeUine Passes
 32d Year A. s Officer

.-=captain George E. Devine, Sunday celebrated his thirty second ami Sersary as a member of the Birming- ham police department and since has been busy man, receiving eongrat- ulations of his fellow officers. on the excellent record he has made, while a member of the department
 Captain Devine was born in Pal metta. Campbell county. Ga. seu- tember 1s. 1858. where he lived until February. 1889, when he moved to Birmingham.
 On April 3, 1890, Captain Devine was appointed member of the po- lice force by O. A. Pickard. then the chief of police of Birmingham. For the next eighteen years, or until January, 1908, he served the police force both as patrolman and patrol driver.
 During the latter part of January, 1908, he was promoted to rank of sergeant, which position he held for seventeen months. after which he was promoted to the position of cap- tain, which he held for about two and half years
 Owing to drastic reductions made in the department in the latter part of 1912. Captain Devine was reduced to patrolman and placed on a beat for two years, but he was soon pro noted sergeant again, which rank he held for 10 months when his last promotion, to. that of captain, was made, and which he has held since
 Captain Devine has made a record to be proud of and has the dis tinction of having served the city continuously for 32 years, record excelled by none.
 The captain is always ready to talk of old times and nothing delights him more than to tell of the trying days during the growth of the Magic City.
 sOf course l feel proud of my record as a police officer said the captain in reminiscent mood, and l am glad that l have been able to be of assistance to the people of the city of Blrmingham, the greatest place in the world
 Z Times now are not what they formerly were. for when 1 came into the police department there were only about 50 members, in uniform, with no detectives, In fact plain clothes men were uhheard of in those days. The largest numbert of officers ever on the force was about 1S0. during the administration of George Bode- ker,, as. chief of police and the smail- est number of 22, in 1894, when Sam

Sickness Is Held
to Minimum Here
Despite Weather

The tricky weather man who has
been chasing the mercury past the 100
mark during practically the whole OF
last week and who then broke all hot
weather records in this county for
this year. has made little headway in
add ng new names to the sick lists.
physicians declared Saturday Less
sickness has visited this city and the
county thus far this year than has
been the case in years, the leading
physicians proclaim.
Only o few typhoid fever cases have
been reported in the past two weeks
Dr. j. c. Neese, city physician, stated
The intense heat has caused "a small
number Of light attacks of chills and
fever. he said. but health conditions in
general are far better than were ex.
pected when the lOS degree weather
was predicted.
Other physicians say their observa
tions are similar and that only few
minor cases of fever and chills are be
ing found. A minimum amount OF
sickness, If any at ALL can be attribut
ed TO the drinking water here. DR.. Wal
ter Hardy declared. DIR. Hardy said
that there was much less sickness here
now than Is usually the case at thii
time OF the year.
