TO ENLARGE AND IMPROVE
ALABAMA STATE FAIR

At time when public attention is centered
upon the state fair now in progress in Bir-
mingham, it seems well to call attention to
the work that has been done by the men in
charge Of the fair under great handicaps and
to urge more general community and state
operation in this great annual event.
While the fair directors have struggled from
year to year to give the best possible exhibit
ton that could be provided with the money
available, they have long dreamed of some day
getting the affairs of the organization in such
shape by raising suitable funds to erect per-
manent buildings and laying off grounds
artistic scale as will make still more creditable
the largest enterprise of its kind in Alabama.
They probably have no definite plan in
mind, and yet each of them would no doubt
welcome a sympathetic and cooperative atti-
tude on the part of every citizen toward
working out arrangement that would be
beneficial to the whole state and at the same
time would place the Birmingham fair on
plane where the directors would not be
CURED to devote their attention to so many of
the petty annoyances and details that arise un-
der present conditions, but could devote
their entire time to increasing the interest
and scope of the exhibits and attractions each
year.
II this years fair leaves the association with
q reasonable balance on the right side of
the Ledger t will be a great encouragement
to those n barge to proceed for the coming
year and following years on a more elaborate
scala in order that the fair may render its
fullest aad most complete service from ed
ueationaa recreational and amusement stand
point.
L. IS with those enlarged plans that the
public should show its cooperation and give
any needed assistance. The state fair has long
since demonstrated its usefulness, not only
for education, bl. rom dollars and cents

WORLD SERIES AROUSES
NATIONS RANDOM

Whether the Giants or the yankees" win
the world series, it will be victory for New
York Perhaps interest in the struggle now
going on in Gotham would be keener in some
parts of the country if the contest were be-
ing waged between New York and some other
city, but if the series this year is attracting
less attention than formerly, there are no sur
face indications of that fact in Birmingham
Judging from the large crowds attending The
-Herald's baseball matinees and the cries
of the fans as they follow each play, the fight
for the baseball championship is matter Of
supreme Importance. Many of these en-
thusiastic patrons of baseball may not know
whether Chanak is the name of town
disease, and a war cloud In the Near East
means nothing in their lives, but their knowl-
edge of the national pastime is profound.
The Age-Herald is glad to give pleasure TO
its friends by special wire service over which
each play is sent and announced by megaphone.
Everyone is invited to attend the matinees and
study baseball history as it is being made by
the "Giants" and the yankees"

science is remaking the world; when some ne
rious thinkers have maintained that John D.
Rockefeller is a greater man than Shakespeare;
when the human race is better provided with
food shelter and raiment than ever before in
history; when the accumulated knowledge and
experience of mankind are more accurately
assembled and more widely disseminated than
in any previous period; when the true brother
hood of man is more nearly approached; when
the health, recreation and luxury of mankind
are more generally assured; when the past
dreams of rapid transportation by sea, air
and land are coming true.
Surely those who for human interest would
choose a past age in preference to the pres
ent are thinking ACCIDENTALLY. They are
swept from their moorings by the romantic
halo surrounding the days of Elizabeth and
the scholarly culture of Athens under Pericles.
A few centuries hence another group of
scholars may be seated about table and when
the same question comes up they will prob
ably by majority vote choose to have lived in
the early twentieth century, time of out
standing deed and achievement.

l have seen many of them, but this is my first
visit to Birmingham. l am delighted with the
city.
~ have been particularly impressed by the
splendid spirit of hospitality and cooperation
manifested here. | have never felt more at

UNIVERSITY GROWTH RETARDED
BY LACK OF FUNDS

The campaign to raise $1,O00,0o0 for the
University of Alabama is now under way. The
needs of this institution have already been
fully set forth in state newspapers. For
nearly century the university has served Ala
bama faithfully and well, but has never been
given the financial support to which it is ea-
titled
For many years the student body was small
and shortage of funds was not felt
verely, but during the past decade the uni
versity has grown so rapidly that the number
of students, according to the latest estimate,
is more than 1900. There are accommodations
for about 60O That tells the story of the
university's growth and shows the urgent need
the great work it is doing for Alabama and
the south.
1t was not until 1912 that the number Of
students at the university exceeded 500. From
1902 to 1912 the largest enrolment was S95
in 1909. In 10 years the enrolment has in
creased from 543 to the present figure of more
than 1900. Some new buildings have been
erected, but the university's equipment,
pecially class rooms, laboratories and dormi-
tories, is totally inadequate for the students
already enrolled, and unless financial assis-
lance is Forthcoming hundreds of young men
and women seeking higher education will have
to be turned away next year.
1t is true that one money-raising campaign
follows close upon another, but the claims of
the state university should be given the earn
est consideration of every citizen of Alabama.
It is the "capstone" of the states educational
system. More than So, 100000 is needed now.
The university is asking for only $1,000,o00.

SOLVES LETTER MYSTERY

Warden J. w Brooks of the county jail 1.-The
letter came several days ago, but no one has

County Jail, Second Flow, Birmingham, Ala
At the left hand corner was written, If not
delivered return to Jim Scott Not only the
name of the addressee could not be determined,
but the return address was omitted. After
much calculation finally decided that the let

torney at law, and read the address as follows:

IN OCTOBER

BY Strickland Gillian.
Rustlng leafy puddles fill the low spots in my
path
Day declines in splendor that was born in
stormy wrath;
Orchid blent with purple is the veil of distant
Orchid mixed with purple and thought of
amethyst.
Forests flecked with ophir gold where tulip pop
lars stand;
Fields of grain and pasture strewn about
pleasant land
Everywhere is hush and browse, and ev'ry-
where is dream;
Here upon the hillock's crest and yonder by
the stream.
Sleek and naughty cattle browse the bushes
where the wet
Left by daybreak's thundergust is clinging TO
them yet.
"Sh!a says Mother Nature, Weary Summers
fast asleep "a
Needs it, too; at peep O. dawn you heard her
wall and weep!'
Hazel brush that undulates where children
prowl and seek
Acrid-coated hazelnuts; that chipmunk's bulg-
ing cheek
Shows them where the crop will be ere many
days go by;
Tells them if they'd have their share they'd best
be mighty spryl
Hear their voices buzzing like the intermit-
tent zoom
Made by busy bumblebees about the pollened
bloom!
Else, the world is silent; and we all are tippy-
toe
Lest poor slumberng Summer should be walk
ened as we go.
Fever, broken Summer 50 in need of rest and
sleep ~
Moist with dews of sunderland and breathing
soft and deep.
My idea of heaven? will tell it you, my dear:
Some place where October lasts throughout the
blessed year.
