Former Birmingham Citizen Declares It Handicap
 to District

W. A. chenoweth, of Philadelphia general sales agent of the Disston company, is attending the convention of the American Machinery Manufac- turers and Southern Machinery Deal ers.
 Mir. Clienoweth was a citizen of Bir- mingham for years and his son is now engaged in business here. Mir. and Mrs. Chenoweth kept open house on Highland avenue before they went north and their home was one of the most popular In the city.
 Mir. Chenoweth is an ardent advo- cate of the abolition of the Pittsburg plus rate on steel products.
 .'lt is the greatest handicap Bir- mingham has he said. There is many an industry that would come here if it was removed. I have known manufacturers about deciding to To- cate in Birmingham who baked when they thought of the $10 per ton extra on steel.
 There was a time when Birming- ham rolling mill products sold on a Birmingham base. It was in the days of the old Birmingham Rolling mill and the Gate City Rolling mill. sold their products throughout a wide ter ritory and we based the price on Bir- mingham.
 Then came the Pittsburg plus and the rolling mills are no more."
 Mir. Chenoweth is uncompromising E in his attitude. and convinced that the Plttsburg plus is the genuine handicap on establishment of inde- pendent steel centers which is claim ed by those trying to have it re- moved.

How FIne---and So Much Fun
 Was Senior Seminary Play

the schoolgirls in a roar, and made the audience long for the careless ease with which she held her job :? She never got out of character any moment, and her sangfroid was per feet.
 Her side partner, another slave, who served the nobleman, Chrysis had a diverting time to keep all call CTS moving along. Visitors to the studio, Frances Frazer, Mary Gowan and Katherine Swalley, had a sense of humor, which provoked shrieks of laughter as they were introduced as mother and daughters come to the studio "to have themselves carved" This portion of the play was written by Mrs. Roberta Barton, brilliant English teacher, who was responsible for the great success and staging of the show, and who also wrote the prologue and the epilogue. The latter was given by Miss Mildred CrelS.
 And the-fun that was derived from two young lovers-one warrior bold, who was Miss Sarah Inzer, his sweetheart being Luceil Cooper. They, too, it seemed for a time, were to be eternally parted through the innocent babblings of the statue.
 The latter told the young lady that
 
 a "1ady" when in reality it was lady fox. The trouble was that the statue did not know what a lady was! Marjorie Holman and Rhonwyn Sims as patrons of the arts, came in for jealous quarrel and humorous patching up of their difficulties when the husband resorted to the ever ef- fective and subtle art of flattery.
 At the End
 It was late when the play was over but the actors were called down from the stage in their costumes and were embraced and congratulated This had professional stuff beaten a mile This was something like! You could tell the actors what you thought of them, be able to gurgle over their exploits, bask in the light of their smiles.
 What joy to meet again Miss Baird, long, long the monitor for the old and new girls, Miss Jones, one of the teachers, Miss Eloise Hemphill, Dr. Compton, brother ef Miss Louie Compton, who with Miss Morton, founded the Birmingham seminary.
 It was not only a play on the stage to the visitors--it was a play on the outside-with the ideals and hopes come true. For Miss Morton has at last realized her dream, having only just few months ago bought the old Underwood home and had regular college put up for Alabama and Birmingham girls. Roses are beginning to grow everywhere there now, and it's such fun to plan for trees and other shrubbery, and a brand new driveway that shortly is to lead down past the new tennis court And instead of half hun dred girls or more make their home at the seminary, Miss Morton next year will have 100 present, who will, in turn, take their seats to watch the Juniors of this year put on an other "senior play
 School Days Over
 When l took the car to come back to The Age-Herald, I looked back and sighed. Couldn't help it to save my life! School days are such sweet things--filled with such wondrous memories, aren't they? Wouldn't 1t have been lovely to have gone right up to a boarding house room, stood at the window and kissed my hand to the stars, and murmured:
 Q. gee, but I hope my Latin won't be very bad tomorrow!"
