MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 11.-1t only required the Ensley high school victory over Lanier, to fill the cup of 1000 Ensley rooters to overflowing in Montgomery Tuesday. During two hours iat Cramton Bowl, the 1000 Ensleyites watched the high school team in one of the most thrilling games played here between two high schools in years. And while the Ensley team outplayed the home school, there was no absence of fight on the part of Lanier.
 The trip of 1000 of the leading men and women of EnsIey, was revelation to Montgomery. When the train arrived and the hosts moved up to Court Square Montgomery suspended what business was underway and he-aided the parades with hurraks that echoed for blocks. And one of the most appre- ciated acts was the appearance of the Lanier high school band at the sta tion heading troop of the boys and girls from Lanier.
 The trip of the Ensley residents to Montgomery started when eleven coaches pulled out of the l.. and N. station. The journey was filled with interest to the visitors there being all the way songs and hurrahs and merry making. The parade at Montgomery was concluded when Rev. w. H. Mansfield

Hathaway were drowned that was sched- uled for this afternoon at 3 o'clock, was postponed until tomorrow at noon. The delay was due to the faiuure of several members of the board of inquiry from Pensacola, Fla, to reach here in time. ,,

 During the luncheon period several of the delegation from Ensley visited Kilby prison where Warden Harris, of Ensley, showed them through that in- stitution and gave a luncheon which in- cluded P.

At luncheon, the Mont gomery Kiwanis club entertained presi- dent Turnipseed of the Ensley club, William H. Mansfield, w.. J. s. Drum mond, Clyde Ennis, James Dupuy and Simon Goldstein. s<
 The game during the afternoon was attended by over 5000 persons which Montgomery citizens said was the rec ord for attendance at a high school game. It was easy to observe that the interest of the entire community was enlisted by the game and by the demon stration that Ensley gave of its civic pride in the team. It was stated that the trip would have the effect of di- recting widespread attention to what a community may do for it's minor ath- Ietics rather than to center it's entire time and attention on major contests.

"Before I was fortunate enough to hear about the Herb tJuice," continued Mrs. Martin, "r was sick all the time; in fact, I had about made up my mind that nothing was. going to give me any relief. had been bothered with con stipation so long that my whole sys- tenn was upset and full of poisons. had terrible burning pains across my back and side, stomach was upset and never felt like eating; when did just force myself to eat few bites it would sour on my stomach and I would suf- fer for hours with gas and indigestion pains. In addition to this, my kidneys were very irregular, I would get up i've and six times at night, which kept my nerves upset, and I was losing in weight every day. After trying all kinds of treatments without getting any relief, you can imagine the sur prise Herb Juice gave me when I be- gan to improve before used up all of my first bottle. That's why I say nothing short of magic can equal this medicine. Today I feel 100 per cent better in every way, don't have one bit 'ef trouble from constipation, stom- ach; in fact, my whole system has been thoroughly cleansed, and it's a pleasure for me to eat big meal. Kidneys are also regular and I sleep like a child all night get up feeling fresh and real ly enjoy doing my house work. Herb Juice has simply done wonders for me and am glad to indorse 1t in order that my friends may hear about this great tonic laxative"
