GIVES REPORTS
 FROM AUGUSTA
Executive Secretary Tells Of Impressions Gained At Meet
 ing In Georgia City


 Board committee, which met at Au- gusta week before last, was herd at the Real Estate Board luncheon Thurs day. s. c. Stark, executive secretary of the board, gives detailed report on the meeting as follows:
 "The regular weekly meeting of the Birmingham Real Estate Board was held last Thursday at the municipal market At that meeting the standing committees for the year 1924, as ap proved by the board of directors, were announced. An informal report of the recent meeting of the national commit tee of the National Association of Real Estate Boards was made by the execu- tive secretary of the Birmingham board.
 One of the strongest impressions made at the Augusta meeting was due to the high order of the work of the various. committees as shown by the reports submitted. It is to be hoped that many members of the Birmingham board may take occasion to read some of those committee reports that can be had for the small trouble of writing to Mir. Herb Nelson, executive secre- tary, 1f1S Consumers building Chicago.
 Occasion was taken at the meeting of the local board last Thursday to urge the committeeman of the local board, appointed for 1924, to give honest hard work to solve the matters coming before their respective commit tees during this year. It cannot be denied that this requires time and calls often for some real personal sacrifice.
 But, after all, it is not without very real and very sound compensation. Lamentable indeed is the career of that man that has never felt the sheer satis- faction of having given himself honestly and earnestly to some particular en- deavor. The success even of our ef- forts is not the greatest thing. We can always do more than succeed-we can deserve success.
 Ut was positively an eye-opener to see what hard work and what a high order of talent were given last year without pay, of course, by the national committees to serve their profession of real estate. More widely and more deeply is spreading the idea that a man l cannot afford to become so engrossed in his own affairs that he cannot spare any time for other things than those that immediately concern himself. It is~a fact that every man owes some thing to his profession, and should exert | himself to meet that obligation. Below are to be found the commit | tees of the Birmingham board for this year, same having been appointed by | President J. l.. Yancey and confirmed | by the board of directors. Let this be their slogan for the year !: We will do more than succeed-we will deserve success
