that she would refer in a rambling way to her journeys for as she said she did not make any attempt at keeping diary, preferring to absorb her impressions.
 Mrs. Bowron first spoke of her visit to an interesting group of Portuguese islands near the coast of Spain, these in- terestng her for their mountainous form ation and for their tropical vegetation. These islands are volcanic.
 She pictured Alglers, its modern feat ures and the picturesque life of its people. She touched briefly upon Naples and Ge- noa and picturing the harbor as she drift ed out at sunset, brilliant with colors, she turned the eyes of her listeners to the far Orient, describing that land so vividly that they saw the wonderful valley of the Nile-the Egyptian sunsets, Cairo, Alex andria, the palm-fringed coast line. It stood out perfectly as the charming trav- eler, dwelling on certain features that im- pressed her most would tell of her first in- presslons of the Nile, the pyramids. the remarkable characteristics of the Egyp- tians, the customs, the life in the valley of the Nile
 Mrs. Bowron told of the process of irri- gatlon and touched upon so many inter- esting points in connection with industrial and practical features that 1t was evil dent that she hao made a close and in- telligent study of the methods employed She said that the oppression prevailing among the people of Egypt was appalling and that tsxation was so heavy that it retarded improvement
 If person were to discover a coal mine or if any other mining product were found in the Nile valley the Khedive eonsid- cred 1t the property of the government and individual rights were not regarded
 Mrs Bowron spoke of the universal custom of the Egyptian women in going yelled, and of many other characteristics that impress American women as pecu- liar
 Opthalmla is universal disease among the children of Egypt, and Mrs. Bowron told of hundreds of babies in the streets of Alexandria whose eye lids were covered with flies, which are con- sidered sacred by Egyptians
 She recalled her amusing experience with her first camel. ana said that on one occasion she counted 800 camels as they entered Alexandria
 In speaking of the Egyptian sunsets she said that no water color could do them justice. and that the most vivid sunset was not an exasgeration of the brilliant tnts in the Nile valley. It is more of an after-glow, the twilight hour

Mrs. B0Wr0n Talks
 Of Her Trip Abroad.

A charming feature of the meeting of the Highland Book club yester- day morning was the informal talk of Mrs. James Bowron, who has recently returned from a several months visit to Europe and the Orient.
 She recalled her impressions in de- lightfully reminiscent way, and took her listeners hand in hand with her through the many countries she has visited She is looking very charming and as yester- day was the first meeting of the club since her return she was asked to recall some features of her trip, although at a special meeting of the club next week, Mrs. Bowron has consented to outline more fully her impressions of Egypt and the Orient.
 In recalling features of her trip she said

Cereals Best in Hot Wealth.

It is the impression that Cereal foods are to be used only in cold weather. This idea is entirely wrong, as Southern Flakes are processed for hot weather and is strictly a summer food, for many reasons. It can be served cold just as it is purchased, requires no cooking, does not heat up the home saves work in hot weather, saves time, can be served with any kind of fruit and also at any meal.
 Insist that your grocer furnish you the home product, this fact insures freshness of every package. If once placed in the home, the advantages of this popular precooked food will be appreciated. Ask for 1t, use it and note the results.

I've believe in extending the limits of Birmingham. in broadening its area, in widening its influence for good until 1t shall be truly and really Greater Bir- mingham. Our lovely neighboring towns up and down the valley should join with us and help in sanitation, In beautifying this lovely valley, and in advancing ev- cry interest that makes for progress ma terial, intellectual and moral As Birming- ham is the center of the commercial in terests of the state, so it should be the center of the moral and intellectual forces of our commonwealth. Greater Birming- ham should be!
 Great not like Caesar stained with blood. But only great as she is good"
 Mrs. w. L. Murdoch also contributed to the symposium and discussed the prac- tical needs of Birmingham. She called at tention especially to the sanitary condition of the city and urged cleaner streets, bet ter police protection and outlined a system mingham an ideal city.
 Mrs. Murdoch said that many munich pal reforms were directly due to the work of Birmingham women-notably the Wo- mans Christian Temperance union, who, even before the organization of the Wo- mans club, called attention to many need ed reforms now being operated success fully.
 Mrs. Murdoch dwelt at length upon the subject of pure water and In speaking of a better water supply and cleaner streets she said that the men who complained of these things on the street cars and here and there should take active steps to- wards effecting the remedy.
 The discussion became informal and among those who expressed opinions were Mrs. John London. Mrs. l.. G. Woodson, Mrs. T. O. Smith, Mrs. c. P. Orr
