Be Careful in Gathering Your Christ
mas Greens.

This is the-season of the year when
property owners, especially along the
highways, should exercise the utmost
vigilance in protecting their ever
greens, holly, running pine, laurel and
the like.
The gathering Of Christmas greens
became such a serious matter, because
of vandalism practiced, that the leg
islature of 1913 enacted a special law
covering the subject. This law makes
it misdemeanor, with a fine of $25.-
90 or 80 day Imprisonment, or both,
to remove, injure, or destroy any
trees or shrubs, without the written
consent of the owner, or except under
his personal direction.
The State Board of Forestry is CO.
operating with land owners in the en-.
forcement of this law, and will be
glad to furnish, without charge, suita-
bic posters for the protection Of prop
erty to any who may desire them.

man closely with view Of getting the
strongest combination possible for fu-

The circuit court room was filled to ca racity some time before the hearing was called.
 I.angley's refusal to discuss the all legged homicide, and his request that public opinion be restrained until the testimony was exposed in court. both caused the interest to be kndled. Especially were the citizens of the immediate community where the kill ing took place greatly aroused.
 Among the witnesses who gave tes- timony for the prosecution were pr. Owsley, who had examined the dead mans body and the scene where the shooting took place, and Mrs, Reedy Thompson, who also testified to hav- ing seen the man fall after the sec ond shot and then seeing a man walk into the road from some bushes. The woman witness also testified that the nan came up to the store where she was, after looking at the dead body. and that the man was MT. Langley. Langley testified that he had met Wilson in the road and that the lat ter threatened him. which prompted the shooting in self defense. He all so testified that two weeks prior to the fatal shooting, Wilson had shot him and that they had been on bad terms for some time.

Guin, May 2e.-(speciaL)--A quick clue developed In the post office rob- bery hero yesterday when blood hounds brought here from New All bany, Miss, took up trail at the rear of the post office building and after circling around the west side of town went due east, and never once lost the trail until they reached the residence of J. c.

 Young Weathers denies any knowl- edge of the robbery, but coat found in his room contained a quantity of red pepper, and after examination a string of pepper showing signs of ahving been torn apart was found in the house.
 Weathers was arrested by Police man F. F. Cartwright and placed in the county jail at Hamilton last night. It Is thought that Weathers will make statement involving accom- pliees, and will also divulge the whereabouts of the stolen goods.

SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS WOMEN OF BIRMINGHAM

herself and to other people to be always as well as she can be-"
 Whatever emotion you may have known. it is uncannily remarkable that you feel Mrs Milner has been through similar experiences. Into whatever wonderland your mind may have taken you, you cannot help but conclude that hers has also found idealistic isles of it's own. She does not say 80. Something just tells you.
 Mrs. Milner IS a widow. Maybe 1t is the fact that, her husband having died very soon after their marriage. she has learned the road to success so thoroughly by having to go it alone. What hard things life has taught her has made her more capa- ble of solving difficulties for other people-and more sympathetic. For a person who understands Is one Of the greatest assets any business can have. A woman like that is capa- ble of producing team work, satisfy ing the public, and lending morale and wholesomeness to an organiza- tion of many employees.
 Best Worker
 ITO be the best worker in the shop-I think that should be the aim Of anyone who aspires to sue ceed.s Mrs .Milner said. And I know that anything well done all ways thrills you, she continued, and while she was so glad that women have a place in the world, she never wanted the time to come when women would be regarded by men just as man in an office.
 T like to think that women will al. old fashioned courtesy, and that they will be given the more refined work. The men, l feel, by rights. should bear the heaviest tasks-and take them as theirs"
 Mrs. Miner stresses that girls should not labor so long at any work as to have nervous break downs
 "When a woman feels that she is no longer physically able to hold her position. she owes 1t to herself. as well as to her employer, to give up for while. She may think she is not financially able to do this. but it Is better to give up and rest than to completely break down. No employer. if he is the right sort, likes workers to go on beyond their strength. If you are a good worker anu nave uOHe your WoFk efficiently. you can always get your old position again or another. And you go back to your work more capable and re- freshed."
 Friend of Mrs. Leake
 Mrs. Milner during our talk sew eral times referred to her friend ship for Mrs. Leake.
 T owe all my success to her, If ] have had any I think all girls should have some woman friend to l consult with, and Mrs. Leake has always been an advisor to me. She Is perfect dear. and when I have decided about several climactic things I have gone to her. She is a mag nfficent business woman, and I'd love you to say that I'm mingthy proud to be protege of hers"
 Sometime maybe you'll meet Mrs Milnerl If you do. you won't forget her for, as I said in the beginning she's that type of girl most anybody would love 10 be like.
