Secrecy regarding the use OF air
planes Is maintained at enforcement
headquarters. None of the officials
will admit they are being used.
The information of their appear

According to men presumably
well informed of the activities Of
the bootleggers the latter are becom-

said, is about completed. The places

are increasing is being continually
unearthed by enforcement agents.

Quantity Increasing.

THE moonshine game is developing
a larger phase. The number of
bootleggers Is being reduced but
the quantity Of bootleg liquor Is in
creasing. 1t is becoming dearer
and harder for the poor man to get,
but that is because the demand for
1t is being corraled in the hands of
the big men in the game who are
putting out high grade whiskey,
brandy and gin and distributing
through organized channels.
There are men selling bootleg
liquor today no one would ever
suspect Of being implicated. They
pick up from SIS to $50 a case and
their social or business standing Is
such that their friends are willing
to do business with them. They

view OF the report that a meeting
will be held by the truck owners in
the city Thursday night in the
Young Peoples Building to protest
against the raise in the city tax on
trucks, this morning made the fol-
lowing statement:
''I do not believe that the tax on
trucks in this city as provided for
by the new license ordinance is ex-
Orbitant. Repairs are needed all
over the city. 1t will not be pOssi-
BILE for the city to make these re-
pairs unless the money can be OBJ
tanned from taxes on vehicles which
use the streets. Trucks cause more
damage to the streets than passen-
ger cars, so 1t is only fair that a
heavier tax be placed on them. 1t
Is my opinion that the new tax Ia
very reasonable"
Last year the tar on trucks in
Alexandria was the same a. that on
passenger cars, $3.50 year. I'm

 WEDDING SOLEMNIZED

On Wednesday evening. September 19 at the home of MT. and Mrs. George Tobler, Miss Grace Beddow became the bride of MT. Barnard Pierson.
 To the strains of Mendelsohn's wedding march, played by Mrs. Frank Greene, Mir Alan Deal and Miss Louise Pierson, cousin to the groom, and Mir. Paul Greene and Miss Hazel Beddow, sister to the bride, entered followed by the two little flower girls, Misses Martha V. Keith and Louise Hamilton, strewing pink and white rose petals from pink anu white baskets in the path of the bride and groom. The ring ceremony was used during which Mrs. Greene played Rev. w. R. Battle officiated.
 The bride wore gown of brocaded ried a cluster of white roses and valley lilies. The brides maids car ried pink dahlias in arm bouquets.
 After the wedding ceremony the brides cake was cut, and contained the usual favors. An ice course in pink and white was then served to 150 guests.
 The bride is the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Joseph Beddow. The groom is the son of MT. and Mrs. John Pier son and an employe of the I. c. railroad. They left immediately after the reception for points north, and on their return will be at home to their friends at 101 Water street.
 An interesting point in connection with this beautiful event was the fact that 1t was Mir. and Mrs. Tob- ler's twelfth wedding anniversary.

 Miss Breed Praises Artist Course.
 Miss Leila Breed of Chicago, who Miss Mallam brought here for two weeks in September as guest-teacher, was most enthusiastic in her praise of the artists chosen by the Music Study club for the coming season. Its a remarkable group Of artists" |" she said. and when told that the season tickets was $7.50 and $5, Mercy" she exclaimed, q never heard of such a thing, surely you must expect a big deficit al the end of the season." but after explaining the seating capacity of the Phillips High School auditorium, and the plan to double the membership this year, she understood how the club could offer such big attractions at popu- lar prices. Continuing, she said:
 "Onegin, with her glorious voice, will prove rare treat, for she has created a sensation wherever she has sung. And you are to have the lit tie Morini? Have l heard her? Yes, indeed, and don't know how to tell you how wonderful she really is, and the power she exerts over you; she's a witch. that's it; that best expresses 1t, I believe"
 When asked to tell something about herself she modestly replied: 70, I don't want to talk about my self; let me tell you how much I like Birmingham and of the splendid voices I have found here. I really envy Miss Mallam some of them. How long have I been teaching? Why, all my life, I think. I never seem to get away from it, even when studying in Europe, l taught. When was just a mere girl. l was teach ing in the Southern California uni- versity and l raised the price of les sons from 75 cents an hour to $1 and it almost created a riot, but I stuck to my decision and won out" singers in the concert fieSd, among Herbert Gould, Florence Lang. Flu gene Stinson and Sarah Mary Ed wards, the latter many will recall hearing last winter in the revival of the Gilbert-Sullivan operas.
 Membership Campaign.
 Is the membership campaign on? If you have any doubts, drop in at Clark & Jones Piano Co.,, 1913 Third avenue, where the reservations for the season are being made, and you will find a busy group of workers each day busy as bees taking charge
 of the checks as they come In and marking the reservations for the en- tire season.

scarce, and if you. don't want to sit in the back rows or on the extreme sides you will have to hurry, for it's case of first come, first served"
 The officers of the club are more than pleased with the advance sale, and there is no doubt that the slogan double the membership" will be- come reality.

 Memberships.
 The other day some one came in and asked for 19 of the S750 seats. Mrs. Houston Davis, who was in charge, naturally wondered at one person getting so many tickets. and upon inquiry found that the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta and all it's branches, have formed clubs among their members, and provide for them entertainment and amusement, from a fund secured by protest fees.
 Mrs. Fannie White, one of the mem bers of the Birmingham branch, sub gested to them at meeting recently, MoIII ol p9sn ga punJ eql Jo lIpd leQl the members, who desired, the priv ilege of joining the Music Study club. It was put to vote and 19 of the 22 members now have season tickets.
