Bryant was reared in the Bessemer without my breakfast for one is quite as important as the other. I like The Age Herald for many reasons par ticularly do I like the woman's de- partment; the social news is always tersely and cleverly written; every avenue which woman enters is coy- cred with well written interesting stories; the church news is compre- hensive and accurate and the edito- rials are reliable and conservative.
 'I don't see how anybody could begin the day without a copy of The Age-Herald; indeed, I couldn't for I would feel that something had been left out of my day"
 Miss Jenny Walters
 There isn't a day that passes that doesn't find me the first thing in the morning reading The Age-Herald couldn't feel as if my day had been begun properly if I didn't read the news IS it is told in The Age Herald.
 When I heard that my good friend, Dr. Henry Gaines Hawn of New York -an old and valued friend-was in Birmingham I immediately wanted to see The Age-Herald, for I knew that a good story would be carried about him and sure enough the day after he arrived I found Dolly Dalrymple's story about pr. Hawn and his picture, and I read it with great interest.
 Being at home as much as am. find The Age-Herald happy me- dium through which I can keep in touch with my friends and the great questions which are expressing the world in these parlous times"

 Mrs. J. N. Killough, Woodlawn: "When try to single out the features of The Age-Herald that I like best, it is a difficult matter. The edito- rials are always well written and conservative like the feature work of the paper. I recall with much pleas ure a feature story of few months ago in which the writer stressed the home life as being the most funda- mental of social life and I heartily agreed with her, because the home life is the Christian University and without Christian home nothing can prosper or be of any good avail.
 q read the advertisements and of ten find suggestions from them. Of course. the entire business world be- lieves in advertising and the reader must use discrimination in her choice of the goods offered. We couldn't do without the advertisements as guide to our shopping The Sunday Age Herald, especially, is a fine pa- per, and we enjoy 1t in our home" Mrs. J. w. Hnnkins
 Mrs. J. w. Hankins, president of the Womans club, Woodlawn: "The morning paper is great joy in our home. My husband is always the first reader of the paper and he is occupied with it until breakfast is announced and missing breakfast as does the delivery of the morn ing paper. After breakfast when the children are off to school I have my pleasure hour with The Age-Herald.
 If I am not in a hurry I read 1t through and through. If I have an engagement or shopping on hand, I read the social pages first and then I turn to the advertisements. I once told a wide-awake, progressive ad- yertising manager of one of our large local stores that always read his ad- vertising page before going to church on Sunday morning. He replied: DO you believe what you read about our Iadvertising? I hope so. for try to make every word on that page the truth
 1 My son. nine years old. reads the comic section the first thing Sunday morning, and he is an interested Ireader of the children's page before going out to play. The Age-Herald has been welcome visitor to our home since I first came to Birming- ham to live"
