 Announcement in Fairfield that the local high school had been made an accredited Al school by the de- partn.ent of education, created deep interest among parents and students. The inspection conducted by the state authorities was upon the insistence of Prof B. B. Baker, superintendent of the Fairfield schools, and onlv after the thought had been long en- tertained here that Fairfield was en- titled to the classification. This rec ognition on the part of the educa- tional authorities will enable the boys and girls to obtain a s much credit on work in Fairfield as they could in any city, and will place Fairfield in the ranks of proper schools in this state.
 In this connection it was made plain that in Alabama the high school enrolment has been greater than in any other state, but that ap- propriations in Alabama had, as in other communities, been much less than was needed to properly develop and take care of the high school growtha
 It is stated that plans are being actively developed to begin construc- tion on the new high school proper ties, which were recently acquired from the Burgin interests. Plans and consideration is being given the work at this time and the board of education is anxious to get started on the construction, it is stated. Plans contemplated by the school au thorities are ambitious, and will, when completed, give Fairfield a school second to none in this state.

Ask Civic Aid.

The Kiwanis club, which is spon- soring the "" in it's infancy. is to request the aid of the Ensley Asso- ciated Merchants, the Women's club, the Realty Board and all kindred or ganizations as well as all churches of this district, in fulfilling the plans for that organization and building. It is stated that the interest of every individual in Ensley will be enlisted and that an opportunity for every man and woman of this section will be given when the time for solicita- tion arrives.
 Announcement a few days ago that the kiwanis club had started a move- ment to erect a building here for the Y. M. c. A. caused unusual interest in the western part of Birmingham, for it is believed that residents of the various communities adjacent to Ems ley will find the building available and will use it often. It is stated that the committee in charge of pre- liminary plans will be able to render a report next week to the Kiwanis club in regard to the "Y" and that approval to proceed will be given it is the general idea to first secure the necessary aid for the Howard High school from this section before precipitating the campaign for funds for the Y. M. c. A. It is believed plans contemplate the initial con- struction of one unit, later units to be added as the demand grows and as Ensley increases in population.
