 (Nashjngton Bureau of N. B. lferald)
 Washington, D. C., Jan. 19.-A bill authorzing an appropriation of s200,- 900 for the purchase of site for a post office building at Waterbury. ad- joining the present building, was in troduced in the house today by Rep rese entative Patrick B.8 Sullivan of Derby.
 Mir. O'Sulliran has previously intro duced a. bill carrying s625,0o0 for the purchase of a site and the erection of new building: but as considerable doubt exists as to whether any build ing bill will be brought in during the present session of congress he was urged by his Waterbury constituents to endeayor to secure at least some provision for site, so that the build ing proposition will be that much fur thered at any rate.

 ''I considered the situation. Ii is never well to act in d hurry. So locked them into the room while l wen: out into the corridor to think. However l retained possession of his lordship. He was fortunately asleep. Then, deciding upon my course, l went into the room and obtained from the young person a complete confession. Her sister is very undesirable, and had proposed to send her own child to baby farm to be done away with, as is usual. II seems, however, that she did not have the heart to go on with this. So she entered into a plot with the young person and with Nurse Mar den, since they are three sisters. The intention was to substitute the other baby for his lordship, and to send his lordship to the baby farm"
 felt d lump in my throat as she recited this story. It was tragic to think of the poor young mother, un- able to keep her child, and resorting 10 a desperate eXpedient to give ii a chance in life, The sister went on pitilessly. After while the matron stopped her.
 Very well. Sister, l sec. But tell me what happened at last"
 "I brought his lordship back into the room. took his clothes off. put him back in his cot, and caused the young person to dress mp the baby she had brought in his lordship's clothes. Then she took him away"
 What" shouted the matron. You gave her his lordships . .?" You made them dress mp that baby in his lordships clothes" But but why"
 The Sister again smiled her grim smile. "Maiion," she said, as you know, We always avoid scandal. SO lar as VIC can in a business such as ours. but when l am in charge l am entitled 10 do what l think for the best Most ladies. you will agrcc. would have preferred that ] shouid dismiss inc young person and htr baby and say no more about it. lh [. as yon always know. her grace
 
 popular. but very fond Of social ad- Nertisement 1 felt that she would be Ncfs grateful 10 the homo if we could procure for her an opportunity of nguring in tho newspapers. if wc could give her chance to appear in the witncss boS as the heroine of ease.''
 "l don understand said the matron.
 Don't you see." said the Sister. that with my evidence. and with thc fact that the young petson car ried away the baby in his lordship's clothes. the case is uomplste, Ii asked the young person whore she lived. Of course. she lied. but being excited, herF imagination was not very well. she said Hamp- stead. As happen 10 know that Nurse Marden's parents lae near Elgin avenue. l was certain that the young person would return there with the baby. therefore tric- phoncd the police. who were waiting for the young person when she her doorstep.

 BIG ENROLMENT
From Membership Of 23 In 1923
 Ensley Men, Swell Total To We'll Over 100
tENsLEY BUKEAU,-

ANSLEY, Alabama. February, 16.---- Application of practical Christianity to the every day life issthe secret of the
 success of the mems class of the Ems ley Christian church, according to opin. ions of class members. ,,t
 To this body. of men there has lately
 been drawn the attention of Christian
 workers in all parts of Birmingham and
 many Enquiries have been directed to the leaders here for an expression of just how the success of the class has been achieved and what is the reason
 for its phenominal growth. The answer seems to be that the class members work seven days per week rather than. one, land applies to everyone the rule of do- ing service where service is needed. 7
 Officers of the class said that in Oc- teber' of 1923 the enrolment was 23 men with an average attendance of IA. About that time Rev. David Griffin, pastor of the church, came : to Ensley
 from Kentucky where he had been for some years. He realized the necessity for a live mems class, and observing
 that some of the other churches were in possession of such organization, set about to build one from the. small num- Der then enrolled. The modest pastor ISaturday was inclined to give all the fcredit'for the work to Neal Dugger and
 some of the other leaders. The class is taught by Samuel King. He is vice
 president of the Bank of Ensley and a
 keen student of the Bible... ]
 From the enrolment mentioned the
 class has moved steadily onward until
 the average attendance during January
 was 100 with an enrolment of 149. On one Sunday the attendance was 130, leaving only IA absent from the total
 enrolled. When one recalls that many
 of the members are employed at the
 steel plant and furnaces and must work
 alternate Sundays the significance of
 the high record of-attendance will be at once realized. ..,........,.,...... In addition to the interesting and
 plain address on the Bible as rendered
 by Mr. King. the class has officers and
 committees that spread the gospel dur ing the week. They visit the sick, comfort the widows. they visit those in
 plGed. The class sees, to it. that those
 who are ill are remembered with flow
 CTS. They see to it that orphans~are protected and are not unsympathetic
 towards the man temporarily down but
 not out. An instance is related where a young chap needed home and job without delay. The committee of the class furnished both within 10 minutes
 and the boy was made "a. convert to the
 teachings of that organization. In
 numerable instances of similar charac-
 ter might be pointed out, but would simply be repetitions of the work the
 class is constantly doing.
 Recently. Neal Dugger started work lof building up the membership and there
 has been the finest result obtained. To
