PLAN CLEAN N-UP URGED
Main Objective Of Weeks Campaign Reached, Dick
 son Declares

Cleanup week came to close Saturday with the number of loads carried by the vehicles of the street cleaning department totaling several hundred more than normal.
 "Swamped" was the word used by Commissioner w. E. Dickson in de- scribing what happened to the men of the street cleaning force.
 But the main objective was reached, premises were made clean nearly everywhere. Because of the great amount of debris collected, the regular trips of the city wagons are many piles of trash yet to be re- moved, but as these are out of premises and ready for disposal, no protest is being made.
 Following is a statement issued by M. H. Sterne, chairman of the cleanup committees:
 Cleanup Week came to an end Saturday, but it is the hope of the Junior Chamber of Commerce and the cleanup committee. that perma- nent organization of the city by dis tricts and blocks can be formed so that every day fill be cleanup day.
 The ciean,up tnrssef oampaigh opa shousand wad or more tons of trash in excess of the usual amount was disposed of during the week. Weeds have been cut, acres policed and homes cleaned up quite generally. The women of the city, under Mrs. Nell R. Wallace, were splendidly organized and did excellent work.
 "The Boy Scouts co-operated heartily and got the best of results.
 "The city garbage and cleaning de- partment assisted in every possible way, and MT. J. w. Hughes, in charge of the work, was a great factor In the success of the movement.
 "Greatest credit is due to Dr. U. G. Mason, and his co-workers, who car ried the doctrine of cleanliness to the negroes of the city, and secured re- suits that were really remarkable.
 The truck committee, under A. R. Redburn, as chairman, materially aucmented the transportation facil- ities of the street and garbage de- partments.
 The people of the old suburbs, the working classes. and the negroes took all the interest in the movement that could be asked. Unfortunately, as a general rule, people of property and position, who were expected to set the example of perfect cleanli- ness. in the main assumed an air of indifference, despite splendid work

EXTRA CREDITS AND PRIZES ARE OFFERED
 INV RACE FOR 8 AUTOS

Well. "50.Ooo Club" members and those who are intending to become members, this week holds real op- portunity for you all. In addition to allowing 100000 extra credits on each set of four new subscriptions turned in up to next Saturday night, July 21, g o'clock, The Age-Herald has decided to offer an extra prize for this week only, a beautiful $l15 Console Brunswick photograph. This handsome machine was purchased from and is on display at the Forbes Piano company on Third avenue where all club members and their friends are invited to call. see this handsome phonograph and hear 1t play. This machine will be given as an extra prize to the member of the 50 900 Club" regardless of district. who turns in the most new subscrp- tons this week. This prize is extra and is iii addition to any other award a member may win. This week is going to be a banner week for every body, for in addition to this hansome extra prize 100000 extra credits will be allowed on every set of four new subscriptions turned in. This offer, figured down per new subscrip- ton, is most attractive for It means that one new subscription is equal in credits to three old subscriptions, and
 
 S115 Brunswick photograph while the old ones do not. AS a matter of sact the renewal subscriptions will never be worth any extra credits and will never count for extra prizes and the campaign manager urges mem bers to devote their time and energy to securing new subscriptions, for they not only count three times in credits towards the automobiles against the old subscription one time, but 1t is hardly possible for member who is devoting his or her time to securing renewal subscrip- tions to win any of the cars. This is plain talk, but it is a fact. You can figure it out for yourself. Every time you get one new subscription 1t is equal to three renewals, on the pres ent offer. Consider than how many renewals one would have to get in order to offset the new ones other members are getting. New subscrip- tons take more effort to get, but they count more and are worth more to the club" member. Take the re- newal when you run across it, but cont waste your time and energy hunting up renewals when the same time and energy would get you new subscriptions which would mean three times as much to you In credits. Just A One Week offer.
 Remember, the present offer of the $115 Brunswick photograph and the POOL 900 extra credits on each four new subscriptions is a one week af- fair only-ending next Saturday night at o'clock. The campaign

done by the district and block chair men. This may be accounted for by clean conditions to start with, but some doubt it.
 The city properties have not been cleaned up. The Avenue parkway, with it's beautiful and expensive shrubbery is reported in disgraceful condition, with weeds higher than the shrubs. Other city areas have also been similarly criticised. The matter has been brought to the at tention of Commissioner Harrison, who has promised to look after it personally and remedy the situation and the committee is confident that he will do so.
 Birmingham unquestionably is one of the most beautiful cities in the United States, and if the clean-up committee has aroused in q measure the determination to keep the whole city clean and attractive looking, its work has been of real benefit"

BESSEMER PLANS TO LIFT MORTGACE

Eleven Thousand Dollar Ob- Iigation To Receive
 Attention
BESSEMER BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HFRALD Ressaraaar Ala LuIr Tx

Much interest has been aroused over the report that the mortgage on the Bessemer Y. M. C. A. building would be paid off this week. There have been a number of committees making a canvass among the sub scribers to the building fund, ask ing that pledges be paid, and 1t Is now certain that the $11,000 in cash will be raised. which is the amount of the mortgage.
 The interest aroused at this time in regard to raising the mortgage is due to the fact that a campaign for additional funds will be put on in the next few weeks. This drive will be under the direction of Secretary Bob Coons, who will be assisted by tleld worker of the '. M. C. A. at tached to the Atlanta headquarters.
 Definite plans for this campaign will be made in about two weeks Secretary Coons will leave this week for Blue Ridge, N C., where he will attend the Y. M. c. A. conference, returning to Bessemer in ten days. During his absence the encampments which have been held at Camp Chip pewa continuously since the latter part of May will be temporarily dis pensed with. Mr. Coons will be ac- companied by his wife and little daughter, wfp will visit relatives in Georgia for some time before return ing to Bessemer.
