DR. I IY STEERS
g If dances
But Says Tuscaloosa Is Mov
ing Rapidly
PRAISES KAUL PLANT
Says Druid City Making Kapid Strides
in Industrial Endeavor as Well
as Along Educational
Lines
Without commenting upon his now
ptute famous ukase against the “peanut
wiggle,” the “kangaroo dip" and the
•goblin whirl,” Dr. George II. Denny,
president of the University of Alabama,
ran the battery of newspaper men in
Birmingham yesterday.
His pei'fect diplomacy in gliding from
that topic whenever and wherever ap
proached was delightful to experience. He
would discuss art, science, literature, ed
ucation, baseball, newspaper work or the
frailties of all human kind with the best
of humor, but when it came to dealing
with recently developed angles of the
'Perpslchorean art. Dr. Denny was silent
Jp at least 37 different languages.
That Tuscaloosa was the best and most
rapidly growing city In Alabama, tHat
It was destined to be of tremendous in
fluence and power in this state, and that
Birmingham, together with Tuscaloosa,
■would create a twin city proposition like
Minneapolis and St. Paul, were the opti
mistic statements of the noted educator.
He said that Tuscaloosa had long pos
sessed great culture and refinement. Now
the younger men are coming rapidly to
the front with commercial prowess and
business was humming in the Druid city.
“Tuscaloosa Is a delightful place In
which to live,” said Dr. Denny. “Ft is
now a great business city and destined
within a few years to be even greater.
By the way, The Age-Iierald made a
tremendous mistake in not sending at
least half of its recent Sunday issue con
taining the Tidewater story to Tuscaloosa.
The people there almost wentAvild about
tHe statements by Mr. Morris. The edi
tion there was sold out quickly and finally
the last copy of The Agc-llerald was
posted on a sign board for everyone to
read. That was of inestimable value to
Tuscaloosa and deeply appreciated.
“Our streets are being paved now by
a progressive commission, backed up by
progressive property owners. We are
getting a gas plant and laying lines for
that. We have an electric light plant,
while the work of the Kaul Dumber com
pany and tHe Central Iron company is
great.
T looked over tHe Kaul plant recently
and expected to see nothing much bet
ter than an ordinary lumber camp. How
ever, It was like walking from a two
story brick house into a modern sky
s< raper. No one can realize what tlie
Kaul company is doing at Tuscaloosa. By
« great deal, that is the most tremen
dous lumber plant in this section and
the most modern. That plant and tHo
civic scheme laid out there, as generally
understood, is destined to he in the front
rank of modernized industries. Tusca- j
loosa is very proud of the fact tHut Mr. j
Kaul located Ids work near our city.
“Jn every line of endeavor Tuscaloosa j
is coining to the front. Educationally,!
we are making progress, and 1 wish to
pay that the University of Alabama is
destined to bo one of the greatest edu
cational institutions In the country be
fore many years have passed and will
bo so recognized.
“Tuken from every viewpoint, I be
lieve that Tuscaloosa Is growing faster
than Birmingham. Boon we will have a
St. Paul and a Minneapolis here with
Tuscaloosa and Birmingham. The pro
posed interurban Tine of the Tidewater
railroad, which will, as Mr. Morris says,
unbottle Birmingham, will he a vital fae
toi in the upbuilding of the two cities
w hieh are even now joined together by
unusual ties of friendship. It is sure to
be a not far distant time when our city
will be lined with industrial plants at
tracted by the river shipping facilities
and other advantages.”
Dr. Denny was one of the principal
speakers at the Perkins dinner last night
Ho will return home this morning.

Buy it, My Boy, Because it’s a
That’s reason enough son—because it’t a Studebaker*
I learned that lesson before you were bom.
And my father learned it before me.
There isn’t any “better” than Studebaker.
There can’t be.
I read something in a newspaper the other day about Studebaker Wagon*,
and 1 cut it out; I like to near good things about old friends.
Listen to it:
“Wherever wheels turn—wherever roads are built—wherever commerce
cleaves it* way into the wilderness- anywhere in the world—there the
traveler from America meets with a thrill of patriotic pride the name
that is synonymous with vehicle service and vehicle value.”
Fine, isn’t it? And gospel true, too. I remember your Uncle William, the
time he went to Europe, back in 1891, telling me how good it made
him feel to find Studebaker wagons in the little out-of-the-way places,
and to find, too, that the name Studebaker stood just as high over .
there as it did here.
But that isn’t what I’m getting at.
What I mean is, that you’d be safe today if you bought a Studebaker
wagon with your eyes shut—you could be sure you were getting the
best money’s worth your dollars could buy.
What I mean is, that the Studebaker notion of building the good old-fash*
ioned golden rule into their wagons hasn't let down the thousandth
part of an inch in fifty years.
Don’t you see that nothing anyone else may offer you can take the place
of that downright positive Studebaker certainty?
Liuppose if all the wagons the Studebakers have built were strung out in
a fine they’d go around the globe half a dozen time*.
> —- ^ And I’ve never heard of one that didn’t make good.
Don’t let anyone get your mind off that idea—buy it, my boy,
" becaute it’s a Studebaker.

vegetable compositions with which most ready roofings are coated.
Then those coatings blow and wash away and the roofings crack and

ARE. MACHINES
Let Us Demonstrate How They Work
Put your hand In a Seeger, with
the Ice and food in it. and feel the
i "breeze” actually “blowing;'’
through it. Place your hand in
any corner, anywhere, and you'll
feel this perfect circulation. Take
a match and scratch it on the
walls, anyhere. The match will
light, for tke'se walls are per
fectly dry. Test the temperature
with a thermoipeter and it will
register <12 degree* or lower.
Some boxes, full of Ice. will
register 70 degree*. Such an "ice
box" once caused «n epidemic in
a New York hospital. The Soeger
Syphon Refrigerator is a machine
in wiiich there is constant action
mid ii constant temperature of
*11! degrees. It is this temperature
and this action that chock the
multiplication of germs in food
kept in the Seeger. The check
ing of germ-multiplication is the
whole Idea of refrigeration. It
was the enormous germ multipli
cation due to the. heat in the ice

epidemic.

DR. ELKOURIE ON
WOMAN^SSUFFRAGE
Will Handle Subject With
out Gloves on Sunday,
May 4
Women's suffrage will be handled with
out gloves May 4 at the Pooplc*S*^oruin
at the 'Amuse-U theatre by Dr. H. A.
Elkourie, the well known Syrian physician
and Birmingham booster. Dr. Elkourie
has been invited to address the Xorym
on this date and to choose his own sub
ject and he announced yesterday lie had
decided to discuss woman's suffrage.
Dr. Elkourie is a rabid anti-suffragette
and is very candid about saying so every
chance he gets, lie has taken part in
recent woman’s suffrage debates and has
always come off with flying colors. He
stated yesterday afternoon that he had
some good things to say and promised
to make it interesting for every one who
heard him May 4, whethef they were for
or against woman's suffruge.
"The woman’s suffrage partisans arc
always harping that women are as good
as men," said Dr. Elkourie yesterday.
"Of course they are. as good as men;
they are better; That’s why i am against
woman’s suffrage. '***
"I can well remember when a few
years ago tlie many sweet and charming
laces one was always meeting downtown
ou the streets. Now there is a brazen
look in the eyes cif nine out of every 10
giPls I meet. They arc all changed."

od of looting ceased simultaneously

| holdup men as tlie cracksmen.
