COUNTY GIVES AID
 TO HUMANE SOCIETY
Special Officer Appointed To
 Work Rural Districts

Mrs. Charles Wheeler, president of the Birmingham Humane society, head ed a delegation that appeared before the board of revenue Friday and ob- tained a pledge from the board that county officials would help to carry out in the county the work now being done by the Humane society in the city.
 Upon motion of W. B. Copeland, the board voted unanimously to assign w. K. Allen, county employe, to humane work. Mir. Allen has been acting as humane officer for several months, but in the past his attention has been divided between that and the transfer of prisoners from one camp in the county to another. The action of the board Friday provides that he shall cooperate with the Birmingham Humane society for a six months period.
 "The Birmingham Humane society has grown rapidly during the past few years, but our efforts are handicapped by lack of assistance" Mrs. Wheeler said. There is distinct need for our work, and the county officials should cooperate in carrying it out"
 Other officials of the society compos- ing the delegation included Mrs. Sallie Osborne Cooper, vice president; Al c. Garber, treasurer, and Mrs. Tressie T. Branum, humane officer.

Expenditure on new gas mains, con- nections, extensions and improvements to service during the last year in Bir- mingham has reached large figure,
 Extend Service
 During the last six months high pressure lines have been connected to Woodlawn, Avondale, East Lake and Forrest Park and to Fairfield and Ensley Highlands, according to J. s. Pevear, co-receiver of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company. High pressure lines will be connected within the next few days to West End, 1t is stated. Additional main capacity is under construction for residents of North Haven. Engineers of the re- ceivers are now making a survey with a view to additional improvements in the gas service, which are in prospect for the summer months.
 By-product was used in Birmingham is holding well above the quality stand ards set forth in the company's agree ment with the municipal authorities. This agreement provided that the gas should contain at least 800 British thermal units, the established stand ard Daily tests show that the gas is averaging $40 B. T. U. Consumption of gas now averages about 5,500,00O cubic feet per day during the winter months and about 3,D00,000 cubic feet a day in summer. The last report shows 2231t meters in use

GAS RATE LOW
 IN BIRMINGHAM
Detroit Only Recorded City Of Consequence Charging
 Lower Prices

Birmingham has the second lowest gas rate in the list of 51 cities for which prices are quoted in the monthly labor review, published by the bureau of labor statistics of the United States government. The government table in- cludes cities using by-product and manufactured gas for household pur- poses.
 Detroit, with rate of 79 cents per 1000 cubic feet, is the only city which leads Birmingham, where the present price of household gas is 30 cents per 1000 cubic feet. In Detroit, it is point ed out, there are many more customers per mile of gas mains and hence less cost per customer for maintenance of mains, depreciation and taxes.
 Average price of gas in the 51 cities is given as $1.26 per 1000 cubic feet, or 57h per cent higher than the Bir- mingham rate. The government fig ures also show that while in the ma jority of cities, gas rates have advanced since April, 1913, in Birmingham they have steadily declined. The average price of gas in the 51 cities today of $1 .262 shows an advance of B per cent over the average price since 1915.
 Lower Rates
 In contrast, the present Birmingham price to hOuseholders shows a decline of about 20 per cent during the same period. In Atlanta, Ga, the nearest southern city in population to Birming- ham, the present gas rate is S1.65. In 1913 in Atlanta it was $1. The table of rates follows:

Visual Acuity' Will Be Subject Of F. P. Bars Lecture At
 HiIlman Monday

Francis P. Barr Of Rochester, N. T., for more than 2. a.Auarter of century known to eye specialists throughout the country as teacher, writer, speaker and practitioner, will speak Monday night at z 80 o'clock at the Hillman hotel on "Visual Acuity," or keenness of vision. The lecture will be given at a meeting of the Birmingham Opto- metric society.
 The talk is to De educational through out, as a contribution to optical sci ence, which is unavailable in printed form.
 Visual acuity is the measurement of keenness of vision of person, opto- metrists say. Previously it was neces- sary to ascertain the size of letters 8 person could read at certain distance, but that method was unsatisfactory, they say, since some letters are more easily read than are others, and because memorizing is possible. The new visual tests make possible much more accu- rate results, it is said.
