We further desire the public to know that
this association of retail grocers and butchers
were instrumental in the securing of the en
actment of the laws we now have in the city
of Birmingham with respect to clean food
stuffs. also that we stand ready and anxious
for the inspectors of the health department to
visit our stores and make such recommenda
tions as will enable us more fully to comply
with the tenets of same.
At the present time we are fostering an ed
ucational movement in a food exposition,
showing the people what are and may be con
sidered the standards of pure foods, and we
invite their inspection of this exposition at
the Armory Building. Second avenue and
Eighteenth street. This exposition has been
arranged at considerable expense, and the
public will have the opportunity of seeing
and testing a most wonderful display of food
stuffs until the exposition closes March 1.

SEWING MACHINE SONG
• Eulger MeKinsey in Baltimore Sun)
A buzz ami a bum and the ahuttle to fill,
The pedal is clicking away with a will,
The burr and the whirr, and it'i eaay to know
The song of the sewing machine—to go
Blinking and nodding to fairyland there
As you drop off to sleep in your rocking chair:
Humming and buzzing, all day, all day,
And the sewer is humming, too.
And cares depart and they fade away.
And the music is tweet to you.
