K|WAN|ANIS HEAR. STIRRING TALK BY. .B A NIX OFF |C AL.
C. N. GiIley Speaker Friday To Fairfield Civic
 Club
FAIRFIELD BUREAU I THE AGE-HERALD Fairfield. Ala. ,July 12

| The snappiest talk made before the
 Fairfield Kiwanis club in some
 weeks was that of c. N. Gilley, cash
 fer of the First National bank of Fairfield. delivered at the luncheon Friday in the dining hall of the
 Methodist church. MT. Gilley, who Is
 president of the' Fairfield Exchange club, is greatly devoted to Fairfield
 and never overlooks an opportunity l of doing or saying anything which I would add to the prestige or the progress of Fairfield.
 l He told Kiwanians Friday that
 such organizations as the Xii
 wanis, the Rotary, Exchange, Civic and other clubs that have taken up big civic problems and solved them famously, composed as they are of l first class, outstanding men, were 1 bound to effect a great good upon the cities fortunate enough to pos l sess such organizations. He added 1 that when one was able to see such gatherings every week when men in | different business activities meet, 1 that one was persuaded to believe i that social unrest, bolshevism and 1 other ills that effect society were | without potential harm to America.
 MT. Gilley suggested that the ar ticles that one reads in magazines, books and periodicals about social 1 ism and other deterrent social ac- l tivities would lead one to think that | this country was headed straight for l the rocks without any life preserv- CTS in sight and all boats adrift. But ] that when one was reminded of the l power and the possibilities of such clubs as the kiwaniS and others the 1 feeling would not down, that Amer | 1 T e 1 for the American peoples, The l banker said that the legislators of
 this country were thinking for them selves, that they were unafraid of lany cliques and that the time was | fast approaching when the best laws l and the most progressive laws that any country needs would be in eff 1 feet in this nation and that even-
 tually there would be no progressive steps but which have been taken in the United States.
 l The address of Mir. Gilley was 1 heard by an attendance exceeding 95 per cent of the Fairfield Kiwanis club and he was roundly applauded
 for the patriotic tone and high ideals
 that he incorporated in his address. | Following the speech of MT. Gilley l the Kiwanians discussed some busi- ness matter, principally the time of meeting.
 i The club is apparently having some difficulty in getting the right day fixed for its meetings and fur ther thought will be given that proposittc it is stated. Maj. Fred ericl1 B. Dodge presided in the ab- sence of President c. W Shackelford, who is away, and Vice President
 Thomas Chalmerss who could not at tend.
 Until further notice the Kiwanis luncheon will be held on Friday, as at this lime

SAYS TEACHERS EFFICIENT

The attention of the Age-Herald bureau has been called to a state ment in the issue of Sunday, wherein Prof. F. D. Graves was quoted as indicating, that the teachers supplied him by the board of education Of Fairfield did not measure to the highest qualifications. The words of Professor Graves printed in The Age Herald formed an excerpt from an official statement he made. However, Professor Graves did not say any thing about his stoff of teachers, con- fining his intimations and statement to the buildings, and to other phy- sicial shortcomings as he viewed them. The statement was made to the Fairfield bureau Thursday by Professor Graves that he considered and still considers the staff given him by the Fairfield board of educa- ton among the best obtainable in this section and that the teachers full filled every requirement. of a high class school. The staff of teachers of Fairfield is considered by all well informed school authorities high in standing and fully equipped for their work. The Age-Herald bureau re- grets that the printed article car ried line subject to misinterpreta- tion. This regret is also shared by Professor Graves.

 THE AGE-HERALD Rnssnner Ala InlN I2

Early construction of paved high way from Brighton to Jonesboro, passing through Bessemer, was urged upon the board of revenue Friday morning by a delegation from this city and two members of the board also advocated the importance of building this road as soon as possible. This paving would cover the east to west highway to which this city is entitled. and at the same time would greatly improve traffic conditions in a large section which Is densely populated.
 The Bessemer delegation appeared before the board on another matter, urging the building of two-mile road connecting the Shades Mountain highway, known as the Brow road, and the Bessemer Hardwood road, which the board agreed to do. The BesSemer representative were pres ent with representative from civic organizations of Birmingham and Fairfield wfo also ask for this road and chose this opportunity to urge the construction of another county highway through Bessemer.
 A. E. Ausman, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, spoke at length on the necessity of building the highway through the city as soon as possible and his suggestions were indorsed by Lacey Edmundson and Jerry Gwin members of the board, while w. B. Copeland seemed agree able to the proposition, suggesting, however, that it be postponed.
 The highway asked for by the Bes- semer representatives would extend from the eastern limit of Brighton to the western limit of Jonesboro, and passing through the business sec tion of 13essemer. The county would bear two-fifths of the cost in the city limits while the balance would be assessed against property owners.
