In an enhancement to cltlsena of Alabama Saturday by C. B. Smith, Commissioner of Insurance, and P. Fon-ville.

State Fire Marshal, they say: "Since by. Joint resolution of the House and Senate, September 25, 191 designating October 8 as Fire Preven-iton Day, the department has tried to Impress upon the citizens of Alabama the efficacy of this date by, having the day observed with appropriate exercises in the various schools, and in tho larger cities with an exhibition fire run. 1 Date Postponed. "This date, conflicting with the Liberty Loan drive this year, and in order that there might be no obstruction or interference to the work of such vital importance. Secretary McAdoo requested of the State departments to postpone the date until November 2.

"Owing to the epidemic of influenza In Alabama, causing the schools and all public places to close, the department deems It advisable to postpone Fire Prevention Day until some future Indefinite postponement of annual prevention day in Alabama, on account of the' influenza, was announced jreaterday at the capitoL together wltn an appeal to the people to make "every day a day of flra prevention." Every person la admonished SHOES The Shoe for Ten Toes Here is a Walk-Over Shoe famous for its perfect fit to heel and toe. Our salesmen have re-named it "The Shoe for Ten Toes." This shoe is known as It has sensible heel, a broad tread that your foot will nestle down upon, and a toe with room for each toe to lie fiat Try it on. First youll draw a long breath of satisfaction. Shortly you'll forget you have any shoes on the only conclusive proof that your feet are properly fitted. Ttic Walk -Over trade -mark is known to remember the importance of reduc- ing fire waste at this Jime "when all the nation's resources are needed in the common task of winning the world time.

Fire prevention day originally was set for Otcober 9, but at th request unable to exercise their right of franchise because the Alabama law declares that electors must vote In the precinct In which they are living, and the fact the newly constituted democratic executive committee of th state has taken no part on behalf of, the democratic candidates who have opposition. The chairman of the present Btate committee la- J. K. Dixon of Talladega. As far as known, he has Issued no statement calling upon the voters of his parly to support '-the democratic nominees.

It has been suggested that Mr. Dixon takes It for granted that they will do It anyhow and that pre-election pro-nunciamentoes are merely time-honored documents which very few people read. It has also been suggested that the new state committee is between the devil and th deep sea on the question of actively supporting the candidacy of Congressman Hudleston In the Ninth district, the immediate followers of the, democratic faotlon represented by the state committee being the active opponents of Mr. Huddleston In th August primary. There is said to be a good deal of "political siill existing In Birmingham over the Hrut success of Mr.

Huddleston and It has been hinted that a good many democrats who voted against him In the primary will stay away from th polls on Tuesday. Whether the lnactmty of the stat committee in this election has been Influenced by the Huddleston situation In the Ninth district or not, it has caused considerable 'comment throughout the, state and some of the democratic leaders with long memories have stated that they cannot remember any former general election in which the state committee has not taken an active part for the return of the candidates nominated in the democratic primary.

toldby the world over. With nearly seventy thousand citizens of Alabama out of the state on war service the general election of Tuesday next finds a complete Kepub-Ilea ii ticket for state offices In the field in opposition to the nominees of the Democratic party chosen in' the August primary. The dominant party In the state has no apprehension that Its nomlneA will be beaten, the state usually Deing overwhelmingly Democratic, but there are contests in three congressional districts which have oe-cSsioned more than ordinary interest the fact that the Democratic nominees were strongly opposed in the primary election witbiu the ranks of their own -party. Fight Huddles The most spectacular of these eon-tests is In the Ninth where Congressman George Huddleston, the Democratic nominee is opposed by J. O.

Thompson, a strong leader in Republican politics in Alabama. In the primary Mr. Huddleston was opposed by Hev. A. J.

Dickinson, who had made a successful local race in Birmingham, and Fred Jackson. He had a clear lead over both competitors when the votes were counted, the strong union labor vote In Jefferson, county apparently going to Mr. Huddleston solidly and the political linu-up made in the city of Birmingham to beat the Incumbent being wrecked on divided, political ambition. Mr. Huddleston won out In the primary over the protest of President Wilson against his re-election, a letter from the president published on the eve of the primary declaring that Congrtsman Huddleston had been "a consistent opponent of the administration." While the candidate in the general" election is considered the biggest man jn Birmingham that his party could have advanced and while he Is shrewdly taking advantage of the Democratic Hostility to Mr.

Huddleston caused by the latter attitude on war measures which have been before congress, it will surprise the state if the Republicans win In the Ninth district. Mr. Huddleston appears to have all" the beat of the situation as the Democratic in a district strongly Democratic, but the Republicans have made a big effort to defeat him and claim an alignment with forces outside their own party the result of which is anxiously awaited by the Huddleston leaders. 1 Shines Walk-Over Shoe Co. pB 9 Dexter Avenue Montgomery.

Alabama MONEY BACK itr, t-i why we should be impressed with the Importance of reducing fire waste at this time, when the nation's resources all are needed in the common -task of Winning the world war; It is the 'national duty of every citizen to exert his best energies in helping to. decrease the destruction of property by preventable thereby conserving our re sources to the end of ultimate victory. "May we solicit that all public buildings, factories, stores and homes should be cleaned of rubbish; all heating, lighting and fire extinguishing apparatus should be examined and, if necessary, repaired. "If the press, municipal officials, civic organizations, business and professional bodies, and individual citizens, tvill give their attention to this all important matter, the results will be a saving of millions of dollars worth of property, and perhaps many lives.

Bent Will Be Just Like Meet-las Gesd Old Friend. An ancient pitcure of the gorgeous palace and grounds at Versailles, France, has been' resurrected by Warren Brown, of this city, upon reading that the Supreme War Council of tho Allies is being held at that historic place. Mr. Brown has hung the beautiful picture at his place of business and it has attracted hundreds of visitors, some ol whom could point out exactly where the great war conferences are faking place. Mr.

Brown does not know exactly the age of the production, but he is sure that it is anywhere from fifty to 100 yaers old. His wife read in the paper of the war councils of, Versailles and remembered that the picture, family heirloom, was in a plunder room where It had lain for years. Upon sesurrecting it, the picture was found still to be in perfect condition. It is made In colors, apparently being a water-color production, about 8 by 14 inches, showing the luxurious buildings, including the now famous Trianon Palace, and the extensive grounds and walks, embracing Innumerable fountains and works of art. The Inscriptions undefr the picture are all French and Mr.

Brown has been trying to get some Frenchman to interpret the words for him and hla friends. Ordinarily the picture would have attracted little attention, but everyone now is deeply Interested In the scene of the exact spot where the world's greatest war council Is In progress. A petition bearing 33.000 names has been sent to Secretary of Labor WHsun by the women street car conductors of protesting against a rul- hpv rw relieved of duty. The war has brought out patent Invention genius in many women of the British Empire. Buraett Ala Opse Congressman John U.

Burnett, of the seventh district, was nominated over John A. Lusk in the primary after a hard fight, is opposed by Oliver D. Street as the Republican candidate- The objection, to the reelection of Mr. Burnett in the Democratic ranks is similar to that against Congressman Huddleston that he failed to vote for administration measures In congress, or actively opposed war legislation requested by President Wilson. -The i Democrats of the district have no doubt that Mr( Burnett will be returned.

In the Fourth district, where Congressman Fred A. Blackmon is opposed by A. Jllngham, Republican, there seems little doubt of the reelection of Mr. Blackmon. The other Dcmocra'tic candidates for congress, who have no opposition, are: McDuffie Only New Man First district, John McDuffie, who beat the incumbent, Oscar L.

Many freshmen are showing up mighty good, it is, going to be a hard task lor Coach to select a regular varsity team. Omy a few old men were returned this year, and these will be shifted to different positions on account of such promising new material. McSauley, playing Quarterback, has already cinched his place, and his work has been pleasing to the followers of the team. He is fast and one of the best broken field runners in the city. Worthington is playing a halfback, and hrttting the line with great success.

Harrison at full and Woods at halfback arc regular and will be able to deliver the punch needed by the team. Fast End Players William and Turner look to be the best bets for the end positions. Both are fast and are experienced. ButI and Whalev are the guards and both are heavyweights. Price arid Hudson are the tacgles, while rather light have shown the "stuff" and will be there in the crisis.

Debardalaben is a cinch at center, and passes the pigskin like a veteran. Thoriipson, Auerbach, and Kohler-are being shifted various positions and will no doubt land regular place's. The team is under the leadership of George Worthington, who has been a member of the team for the past three years. Earl Lutz, is manager. Games with Mobile, Birmingham.

Prattville, Dothan and Wetumpka will be arranged for, provided the school opens within the next few days. The annual Thanksgiving Day game between Barnes and Sidney Lanier has been arranged and will probably be played at Soldiers' Field. This game is looked forward to with considerable Interest by the students, and is the banner game of the team's schedule. Do This Morning, You Won't Need Cascarets Great exercise!
