 Former Teacher Officiating

NASHVILLE, Tenn, August 21.- Special. )-The body of Mrs. Hubert H.

Smith conducted the funeral service, there were rooms full of floral offerings, which in themselves were testimonials of the love and esteem in which her hun dreds of friends here and elsewhere held her. At the hour of the funeral both the home from which the serv- ices were held, and the yard, were crowded with those who had come to pay her final tribute.
 Not only were friends and relatives present whom she had known and loved during her lifetime here up until 1916, when she removed with her husband to Birmingham, but many came from the city of her late adoption and other places to pay their last tribute of respect. Among those coming from Birmingham were: J. R. Lyle, Ben G. Harper Mrs, Ben G. Harper, Mrs. w. A. McDaniel. Mrs. Francis Warrensells and Walter McDaniel.

BOARD OF REVENUE INDORSES PAVING FUR FIRST AVENUE
Resolution Opposing Park ways Adopted At Tuesday
 Session, Three To Two
THOMAS F. HUEY

Resolutions indorsing the fight of East Lake and Woodlawn citizens against the parking of First avenue, as proposed under terms of an agree ment between the city commission and the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company were adopted by the board of revenue at it's regular semi-weekly session Tuesday. D. c. Ball, Thomas E. Huey and W. B. Copeland voted that the resolution be adopted intact. as introduced by w. B. Copeland, while Jerry Gwin and Lacey Edmundson voted against the measure, because certain clauses were not omitted.
 The League of Women Voters also passed a resolution condemning the agreement, providing for the park way, at an executive meeting at the Hillman hospital Tuesday after noon. That action was taken after Von l.. Thompson, attorney, at the invitation of the league members, ex- plained the disadvantages of park ing the thoroughfare, declaring that it would prove a great hindrance to the heavy traffic on First avenue.
 The resolution adopted by the board sets out that if curbs for a parkway are constructed along the avenue, the operation of fire trucks, engines and ambulances will be greatly hindered. causing an excess of fire losses and possible delay in getting emergency accident cases to the hospitals
 Thompson Is Pleased.
 Won L. Thompson told The Age Herald Tuesday night that he was pleased at the action taken by the two bodies, and that similar moves were expected by every influential organization and club in Birming- ham, unless some agreement can be reached between the East Lake and
 Woodlawn citizens committee and the receivers of the rilway company, regarding the striking out of the clause in the agreement which pro- vides for the parking Cf First ave- nue. Mir. Thompson said that he ex- pected to meet J. S. PPevear, one of the receivers of the company, in conference Wednesday when the proposition would be placed before him. If 1t Is rejected, the fight will be continued, If accepted, all litiga- tion will be ended.
 MT. Thompson appeared before the Birmingham Automobile club at It's regular meeting Tuesday, but because of other pressing business the club was unable to hear his argument. An invitation was extended for the next meeting.
 It was also stated that an injunc- tion would be filed enjoining the railway company from parking the street. If the citizens committee found 1t necessary, and initiative elec- ton proceedings may also be put under way.

PROHIBITION OF ALL LIQUORS IS ATTACKED
Danish Profession Gives Impress
 sions Of American Dry Law

COPENHAGEN, August 21-(By Associated Press. )-Professor Warm ing of Copenhagen, summing up his pressions of a four months visit to the United States, told delegates to the international congress against alcohol today that the prohibition of all alcoholic drinks was unwar- ranted.
 Home brewed beer and wine should be allowed" he said, adding that he would be unwilling to vote for prohibition in Denmark unless 70 per cent of the population demanded 1t. He expressed the hope that the Volstead act in American would not hamper" the European fight against alcohol to any great extent.
 Rev. Edwin Dinwiddie, Wayne B. Wheeler and William Bennett of the American delegation protested against these deductions on the part Of Professor Warming and argued that his deductions of America were those of a tourist.
 Andrew J. Volstead, author of the American enforcement act, was given an ovation by the delegates.
 MT. Volstead, In a speech, gave a survey of the results of the Amer ican prohibition laws in which he declared there had been a decrease in crime and improvement in the lot of the people through increased saw ings deposits. better homes and more efficient labor. He said that if Americs spent proportionately on liquor what certain other countries did it would mean an annual expen- allure of between $4,000. 100000 and S5,00O, ,000, ,000.
