VACATIONTSTS ANNUAL EXODUS
 IS UNDER WAY
Quota From Birmingham
 To Europe Expected To Break Records.

The annual exodus of Birmingham citizehs to Europe has exceeded by far any estimate predicted for summer tray el by passenger or steamship agents. The present rate of touring will bring the number of Birmingham citizens in Europe to about 300 by July 15, G. R. Bart of the American Express company, announced Mir. Bart has been arraAg- ing some of the trips and making res ervations on the steamships for the sum- mer tourists.
 'Reservations and bookings for all European trips should be made at least two to three months in advance in or der to secure good quarters" Mir. Bart declared.
 Summer travel has topped all ex- pectations among the steamship compa- nies. As a result of the sudden rush of foreign travel numerous special trips are suggested, some of which enable one to travel Europe in month or six weeks tour for $400. Fares to Europe, round trip, are as low as $160. The rush for reservations has resulted in the setting aside of the third class for more refined class of people. This passage has appealed to the college stu dents who are going abroad for the sum- mer.
 25O,OOO During Summer
 A limited estimate of the Americans to travel Europe during the summer season. is 250,000, made by Thomas Cook < Son.
 Two tours of Europe are proving pop ular-a grand tour which includes the majority of the important capitals and countries and a tour of the Scandina- vian countries which up to this season was favorite only of the British. The numerous cruises to the North Cape and Norwegian .Fjords that sail from Eng land during the summer months will carry a number of American passengers booked in this country. The Mediter- ranean tour, although much more pop ular in the winter and spring months, has added extra vessels to satisfy the pleasure travellers.
 Railroad passenger traffic has far ex- ceeded preparations made for the usual summer vacations. James Freeman, Southern railway passenger agent, has announced that added cars have been placed on nearly all the important trains to give service to the excess travel.
 Mir. Freeman says travel to Canada is so extensive this summer that an international train was added at Wash ington to meet the Birmingham special to carry the Canadian tourist on a quick schedule.

CIVILIAN LIFE IS
 FAR TOO TAME
(COntinued from Page One)

(COntinued from Page One) sons so we'll that when the first batch of men were called upon to go to the front he was selected for the Stokes mortar section.
 To Mortar Platoon
 Bryan was sent to the headquarters of the One Hundred and Sixty-seventh infantry under Col. W. P. Screws and assigned to command the mortar pla- toon. From then until February 4, 1918, the men were put through an intensive training and sent to the front. On Februay 4, they received their first baptism of German fire.
 While on the way to the rear for more training few days later, the Ger mans broke loose and his regiment was ordered back to their sector and forced to cover q two-day march in one day. Later they were moved to the Bacarac sector which was so active that their regiment lost GOO men in one night,
 They were moved to the Champaigne sector on July 5, 1918, and at mid night nine days later (July 14) as Mir. Bryan expressed it H broke loose" From midnight until o'clock the fol- lowing morning there was one con- tinuous roar of artillery. Shells were coming from both directions and the sky was crimson with bursting shells. As leader of the Stokes mortar platoon Lieut.. Bryan was forced to sit during the barrage in an exposed observation post.
 At 4 o'clock the German reached the first line of the American trenches which had been filled with gas and vacated by the Americans as a trap. The trap worked to the tune of many German lives.
 At Battle Of Marne
 On July 19, Eryan-s regiment was on hand for the second battle of the Marne at f :50 o'clock, on the evening of June 26. His regiment faced the Prussian guards which have the reputa- ton of being the bravest fighters in the German army. During the battle his company took 2 machine guns and no prisoners, for the guards had died with their fingers crooked around the triggers.
 At the close of the first evening s fight Lieut. Bryan found himself in command of the fourth platoon of company M and eleven of his own men who had survived the battle. At dawn the next day they found that the Germans had retired during the night.
 A four mile march under fire brought them in sight of the enemy entrenched across the river. By this time the Americans had lost so many men that Bryan was commanding both M and IL" companies of One Hundred and Sixty-seventh infantry.
 After three or four days severe fight ing they were relieved and sent to the rear for reorganization and re-equip- ment. On August ?, Bryan was of fcred the rank of captain but refused, not believing he was old enough in the service to be responsible for 250 men.
 shortly afterwards he was ordered

DOMESTIC COURT ].
 TRIES 79O CASES
 IN FIVE MONTHS
Only Six Appeals Made
 From Judge Mayfield's Decisions

Seven hundred and ninety trials and only six appeals is the record of the second division of the domestic rela- tions court, of which Virginia H. May field is judge, for the first five months of the year, according to the report is- sued last week by Mrs. Jessie B. Ar rasmitll, clerk of the court. Fifty eight more cases were tried in Besse- mer, where Judge Mayfield holds court each Friday, and of these, there was but one appeal, which, however, was later withdrawn.
 From January through May" Mrs. Arrasmith said, "our books show that from this total of S4S cases, about $16,- 800 was collected, large part of which was turned over to poverty-stricken families to contribute to their support. Our court, therefores besides netting out punishment to law violators, also assists unfortunate persons deserving help"
 The cases are distributed evenly from month to month, the largest number, 163, having been tried in May, and the smallest, 143, tried in February. The month of May also leads in the amount of money collected since the first of the year, $4,079.75 having been taken in. During January the least amount was taken in, the sum aggregating ST. 96S.26. In the 5S Bessemer cases $2,- 139.65 was assessed.
 The domestic relations court has two divisions, one presided over by Judge Samuel D. Murphy, known as the juve- nile court, handles almost all cases in- volving minors. The second division tries cases of contributing to delinquen- cy, desertion and non-support, assault and battery between husband and wife, compulsory school attendance, and the like. Judge Mayfield explained that the fine imposed upon a man who fails to support his wife and family is given directly to the dependent, thus killing two birds with one stone" by making the delinquent himself rectify the con- ditions which he has created.
