 GAINS SUPPORT
 OF PAST0RSHERE
Methodists To Dispense With Midweek And Sun
 day Night Services

At their regular weekly meeting at the First Methodist church Monday the Methodist ministers of the Birmingham district unanimously adopted a motion declaring it the sense of their union that all Methodist churches in this commu- nity hold no Sunday night nor Wednes- day night services during the John D. Brown revival campaign, which opens at the city auditorium Sunday, January 4.
 The motion was made by Dr. B. T. Waites, pastor of the First Methodist church of Bessemer, and seconded by Dr. s. O. Kimbrough, pastor of the Eleventh Avenue Methodist church.
 Owing to the absence of Dr. William H. Mansfield, pastor of the First Meth odist church of Ensley, Dr. J. c. Per singer, pastor of the Fountain Heights Methodist church, presided at the meet ing.
 Secretary Dill read the minutes of the previous meeting, and following routine business, the matter of cooperating in the Brown meeting was made the spe- cial order.
 Without exception every pastor pres ent expressed a desire to join in the district-wide religious campaign. It was following vigorous speech by Dr. Stuart, who advocated the suspension of all Methodist church services on Sunday and Wednesday nights dur ing the Brown meeting that the motion of Dr. Waites prevailed by unanimous vote.
 Dr. Stuart told fellow ministers that nothing short of the fullest cooperation in the Brown meeting seemed advisable to hin. He declared: "As nearly as possible, the revival should make a new town out of Birmingham"
 Dr. Persinger, the chairman, Dr. &. T. Slaton, pastor of the West End Meth odist church; Dr. John s. Chadwick, secretary-treasurer North Alabama Christian education movement; Dr. w. E. Morris, pastor of the Norwood Meth odist church Dr. Walter P. McGlawn, pastor of the West End Methodist church; Presiding Elder Price of the Birmingham district, and others spoke pledging full support to the revival. EHarris, dc Mt, t f,hrdl cmfshshh'

City Faces The New Year
 With Unbounded Optimism
Industrial And Business Leaders Agree That
 Period Of Prosperity Is Dawning

Seldom has Birmingham faced a new year With greater optimism or one whose future holds brighter promises, according to a survey Monday of few of the merchants. and industrial lead CTS who are as one accord in voicing their belief that an unusually fruitful 12 months is just dawning for the dis trict. /
 A widely diversified list of business men queried by The Age Herald all share the same conviction, that Bir- mingham industrially and otherwise, is on the threshold of the realization of many of her fondest dreams and awaits with interest and confidence the ad- vent of 1925.
 A few of the typical expressions fol- low: '"
 J. H. Loveman of Loveman Joseph and Loeb: "The holiday business has been most gratifying and we face 1925 with the greatest optimism. We believe the new year will be one of great pros perity for which the merchants are preparing"
 Robert Jemison,, Jr.: "Not in many years have we faced such Ian excellent outlook. There is every indication that Birmingham will be prosperous and busy. If that is true, we will be happy, for busy people and prosperous people have no time for imaginary troubles. This district is hitting the stride we have been predicting for many years"
 J. W. Mcqueen, president of the Sloss- Sheffield Steel and Iron company : We are preparing for operations on a greater scale, believing that 1925 has every prospect of being >one of the na- tion's greatest and most prosperous

LOEHR TO HEAD
 EXCHANGE CLUB
Resolutions Adopted Seek ing Location For
 Library

Allen c. Loehr, head of the depart ment of languages of Birmingham Southern college, was unanimously elected president of the 1925 Birming' ham Exchange club at the luncheon meeting Monday noon.
 Robert Nelson was chosen as first vice president; Leon Bradley, second vice president, and Clinton Decker third vice president. Henry B. Brad ley, was reelected as secretary and treasurer of the club. Three new mem- bers to the board of control selected were Vernon Harris, Frank Seller and Roy Cox.
 The club rendered it's thanks to James Simpson, outgoing president, with rising vote of appreciation for his services. A short history of what the Exchange club had accomplished since the present set of officers took charge was given by H. B. Bradley, showing the club to be in better finan- cial condition and an increase of fiji teen members for the year.
 The first business under the new president was the passing of a resolu- tion that the present board of educa- tion administration building site be given to the city as a location for the city library and in exchange for ths the city give a portion of the east side of East Twentieth street to be added to tEe remaining county property of that block.
 The resolution will be presented to the board of revenue, the city commis- sion. park board, public library board and planning board at an early date.
 H. McCay Wright of Henly school and Vert Plane of the Birmingham Cotton Oil company were admitted to the club as new members.

PROBABLE ACTION ON LIBRARY SITE IS NOT DIVlJEGED
Joint Meeting On Cues ton Set For Tuesday
 x Afternoon

The action to be taken at the joint meeting of the county board of revenue and the city commission Tuesday aft ernoon in regard to the selection of a site for the new $650,000 library, would not be forecast Monday by members of either body.
 The city commission, according to ID. D. McLendon, president, will enter the meeting without any definite plan of action, and will consider any proposal the county might make.
 The county board of revenue, Capt. Lacey Edmundson, its president, has not formulated any plan, but wished to CO., operate to the fullest extent in securing a suitable location for the library.
 In discussing the proposal that the county give the library the site now oc- cupied by the Thtwiler home on Park avenue and Twenty first street, Captain Edmundson asserted that several mem bers of the board of revenue were ot the opinion that the county should keep the Tutwiler site, and instead give the library a site at Twenty-first street and Eight avenue.
 .s Board Not Committed
 Yet, the board of revenue has not definitely committed itself to this or any other policy, it was said, although the fact that the second named site Is close to car lin@ was brought out This would prove convenience to li- brary patrons in all parts of the city, and would remove sthe county courts from the noise, incident to the passing cars and heavy traffic on Eighth avenue.
 A committee of members of the Ex- change club, consisting of Judge Hugh Locke, Leon Bradley and Sam c. Starke, conferred with the board of revenue Monday afternoon and~Hrged that the library be given the Parke avenue site at the meeting Tuesday.
 Harry B. Wheelock, architect, who prepared the tentative plans for the new courthouse to be started soon, also was called before the board to advise whether or not, it would be possible to follow present plans for the courthouse and at the same time donate site for the library.
 Use Present Plans
 During this conference it was de- termined that the present plans un- doubtedly could be used in event the library site problem is settled. But the county was advised to reserve the right to pass on the plans of the new library, so that the two new buildings will not clash architecturallys
 It also developed during the conver- sations with the various members of the board, that the county in event it agrees to furnish the site, will not in sist upon a 50-foot strip of land from West Twentieth street. The board will be willing to take only 25 feet from West Twentieth street, it was said.

periods. We can see nothing to disturb that opinion. It looks mighty good for an exceptionally fine new year."
 T. Barton Baird, district manager of the Southern Bell Telephone and Telegraph company: "We expect our resources to be taxed to care for the onrush of new residents to Birmingham and believe 1925 will be the greatest in the history of the city"
 Harry Horner, vice president, Bir- mingham Water Works company : We have made plans for expansions in 1925, which were placed before us by our engineers. They indicate that Bir- mingham will grow nightly during the new year and we anticipate a most prosperous period"
 Frank H. Crockard, president of the Woodward Iron company: Nothing seems to stand in the way of a great period of prosperity. The iron market is good, properties are in fine shape, employees are happy and satisfied, nearly everyone is employed and we naturally expect a mosb prosperous and busy new year. Birmingham is singu- larily blessed in many ways and if we profit not from what we have here it is our fault only." Walter Moore, president, Pratt Fuel corporation: "We will mine more coal in Alabama in 1925 than ever before. We will retake much territory and will break all records in mining. Birming- ham is plunging through every line placed in her path and will emerge over the goal line of 1925 making a touch down. The outlook was never so good for business as we face 1925 unafraid and determined"
 James B. Patterson of Parker Drug company: "We have ordered twice the regular amount in many lines this year on the belief that 1925 will bring the greatest harvest of prosperity to Bir- mingham that we have ever known. There can be no question but what the situation is vastly better than the old est citizen can recall"
 Frank c. Marquis of the state tax commission: "We have reconciled many interests, we have swept the com rlexities into the breezes and have set our plans for 1925 filled with good will, big business, honest achievement and the furtherance of Alabama's great ness This district will not fail"
 Charles J. Donald: 'The western part of Birmingham was never so prosperous or the outlook more reas- surfing. We look for 1925 to be far and away the best year we have ever known"
 T. H. Benners: "We expect 1925 to be a very fruitful year. Indications are especially good and we can see no reason why this district should not make reasonable progress"
