The approach of cold weather means
the closed season on automobiles

danger of the deadly gas thrown of

extremely hazardous to remain in a
closed structure with the motor of
an automobile running; the fumes
emitted from the exhaust pipe Of the

ticed, until they grip one in uncon-
sciousness, and then, perhaps, death.
There is even some danger when the
barn or garage door is open. The ex-
perience of South Ryegate man in
barely escaping death, having been
found unconscious by his wife where
he fell beside his car in the barn, ought
to bring the danger sharply home to
all who read of the occurrence.

BIRMINGHAM WOMEN HAVE ADOPTED LUNCHEON IDEA

The women of Birmingham now have a forum of their own, the first of it's kind in this city, where they discuss and hear discussed mat ters of interest to themselves and the general public. The Axis club, the woman's auxiliary of the Rotary club, has followed the example of other luncheon clubs in Birmingham which invite speakers to appear before them and pro- vide both entertainment and instruction.
 The Axis club is another manifestation of the increased interest women are taking in public affairs At the latest meeting of this or ganization two of Birmingham's leading pastors debated on dancing, at East Lake and Sunday amusements, topics which are just now engag- ing the attention of everybody in Birmingham
 It is encouraging to observe that the various women's organizations are making themselves felt more and more strongly in matters of gen eral interest. They are showing keen reali- zation of their responsibility as citizens and there is no better way to launch good move ment or scotch a bad one than luncheon where food is not the first consideration

MODERN COLLEGE FINANCING

From the Columbus Dispatch.
 Men still under three score and ten can well remember when the completion of the $100,000 endowment of their college, after many months of strenuous endeavor, was looked upon as a monumental achievement. A few days ago an eastern university announced the allotment of $1,300,O00 for single building for it's medical department alone. Another great university, desiring to get hold of additional property in its vicinity, was obliged to find three quarters of 2 million in day, the papers tell us, in order to prevent its option on the property from expir- ing. The smaller colleges that worked so hard for their $100,000 funds generation ago now want their additions to come in sums of five, ten and twenty times that amount; and they get their wish more frequently than they got their $100,000 in the earlier days. We talk much more now than we did then about what we call "the inefficiency of the college" the failure of college education" "the impracti- cality of the college graduate" and so on; and yet hard-headed men of affairs, judging the col lege tree as other trees, by its fruits are willing to put their money and thought into it's service as never before.

SOUTH DEVELOPING ITS
 WATER POWER

An immense amount of water power will be brought into the service of Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas within the next few years. Not only are big plans under way, but some large dam building contracts have been entered into and others are in progress.
 Alabamans are familiar with the building of Mitchell dam, which will generate 120,OO horse power. That $s,OOO,ooo project will be com- pleted in the spring of 1928.
 The Southern Power company, Raleigh N. G., has let contract for dam on the Catawba river that will cost about the same as the Mitchell dam and will generate S0,O00 horse- power.
 The Georgia Railway, Light and Power com pany announces an extensive plan of develop ment on Tallulah river which includes finishing the half-completed SO,O0O horsepower project there, increasing the Morgan Falls power plant to.22,5o0 horsepower, stretching of transmission lines and other hydroelectric development at cost of nearly $S,oOO,O0O ,]Dawp in. southeastern Alabama the Houston Paper company is preparing to harness the power of the Choctawhatchie river for the bene- fit of the towns of Dothan, Ozark and others i'll that section.
 It costs many millions to do these things. The southern people are fortunate in having the con cerns that are able to finance such big under takings and supply them with current for the growing needs of their fast developing indus trial life.

WANDERwELLs WANDER ON

Since leaving Birmingham in 1919 we have visited 45 states; Cuba, Mexico, Hawaii and Canada and are now on our way to South America" says Mrs. Nell Wanderwell of the Wanderwell tours.
 "We had some time in trying to travel through Mexico, as there were very poor roads, so we got permission from the government to put our the railroad tracks, and in this way were able to conquer the deep sands of the Sonora desert.
 While passing through the country of Du- rango, Mexico, we were held up by bandits and relieved of our firearms, and what little change we had on us.
 In the little town of Durango we met the famous Mexican bandit Poncho or Francisco Villa. He autographed the hood of our car. We had lunch with him at his ranch in Durango. When we left he escorted us a few miles on our way through the desert.
 s'We were caught in many sandstorms cross ing the desert In one place it was so bad we had to camp for hours until it blew over
 Through Hawaii we found wonderful roads, Bilauea volcano was the most wonderful sight l have ever witnessed"

BUILD BIG AUDITORIUM OR NONE AT ALL

In spite of indictment weather more than thousand people could not gain admittanceNto the Messiah" performance at the Lyric theatre Sunday. Had it been beautiful day the dis appointed would have numbered several thou sand. Many refrain from even trying to attend indoor affairs that draw crowds because of the nerve racking effort necessary to obtain seats.
 There should be large auditorium in Bir- mingham seating minimum of 5000 to 10000 persons. An auditorium of no greater capacity than the present theatres, the Masonic temple and the Phillips school would be waste of the peoples money, would not be used and would be dismal failure.
 Atlanta announces its twelfth grand opera season. Its large auditorium enables it to have performances that draw people from other southern states and gives that city prestige of it's own. Birmingham cannot compete because it has no place large enough.
 Whether for pay affairs or for free attrac- tions, large auditorium is a crying need of large city. Size is paramount. Build it big or build none at all. There will be enough halls seating 4,oOO to 5000 and under when the Masonic temple and Phillips school are added to the capacity already available.

terlal improvements be curtailed or post poned, but an epidemic does not wait on fi- nances.
 One physician states that patients at the Hillman hospital are being placed on cots until beds are vacated. The reduced appropriation for operating the hospital will cause many beds to be eliminated and cut down the staff of nurses and internes. Just at present Birming- ham should have a charity hospital operating at 100 per cent of it's capacity. It is not only question of taking care of unfortunates who may be left to die in novels and the gutter, but without proper treatment and isolation the dis eases from which they suffer are dangerous to the city at large
 Economic conditions are such that some way must be provided to take care of an increased number of indgent sick. The Himan hospital is the only institution where they can hope to receive medical treatment. Such emergency cases as that of the unfortunate man picked up yesterday must have prompt attention
 While it is true that the detention hospitel and the free clinic, which have been the subjects of controversy recently, are intended to combat only certain type of disease, while the Hill man is operated for the victims of accidents and the poor who cannot pay for hospital treat ment, all three institutions are vital to the pub lie health. It is doubtless true, however, that first consideration should be given to the Hill man hospital. It should not be crippled when it is needed most. Its work touches the entire community
