TO MISS LAURA BROWN ON HER
 WEDDING DAY.

An offering I would proffer thee A simple wreath of poesy With love and kindly wishes wrought, With more of feeling than of thought. For fancy ever fits at will Where Cupid's deadly arrows thrill; And bridal veis forget to hide The blushes of the new-made bride. But fancy folds her airy wings, And musing sits and softly sings. Then memory, banished for a while, Returns with gentle, loving smile. And tender farewells finger still Like minor strains that gently thrill When marriage vows recorded stand As landmarks on lifes golden strand.
 MRS. MARY WARE. Birmingham. Ala

LYRIC SOPRANO CREATING STIR IN MUSICAL
 CIRCLES IN BIRMINGHAM THIS SEASON

Calves than any he had ever heard.
 Mrs. Putnam is a devoted member of St. Pauls and many people who are not Catholics go there just to hear her sing.
 She is extremely modest and were it not for the fact that she attends mass at St. Paul's, many music lovers would have remained in ignorance that there was another Calve, a new star in the musical Armament.
 While the season has come and gone with so few musical events of importance, it cannot be said to have been wholly a allure, at least to those who have listen ed to the beautiful music that is arranged for the church choirs in the city. Nor can the season be wholly failure that has added a new star to the musi- cal constellation.
 In speaking recently Of Mrs. Putnam's voice, musician who frequently attends services at St. Paul's church said "Ev- erything she sings is a revelation. heard Mrs. Putnam two or three times in short solo parts, in masses last year and was greatly impressed with the pure quality of her voice then, but l did not realize what an artist she was until. I listened to her sing the difficult soprano solos In Weber's mass in G. two months ago. This work of the famous composer being tlorid, 1t requires of course, coioihtuTe soprdno Mfs. futndm hdS not only a singularly clear and sym pathetic voice, but 1t is rich in color and no French or Italian music would be, I take 1t, too brilliant or ornate for her. But this lady's yocalization Is so musi- cianly that she sings, according to her friends, music of the German classic school equally as we'll as the forid. Ger tain 1t is all her solos I have had the pleasure of listening to since her achieve ment in the Weber mass-Monestel. Ave Maria, a beautiful old o Salutaris,' and other hymns of the church-have beea faultlessly rendered.
 "5Ae is indeed a rare vocalist and if there was ever soprano principal brought to Birmingham for May festi- val who was as fine as this non-profes- sional woman, l do not recall the fact

 soprano, who is creating a stir in musical circles, although she sings very seldom and then only at St Paul's church, where she attends mass every Sunday
 She is Mrs. E, J. Putnam. who, with her husband, came 10 Birmingham about four years ago. They have charming house near Cullom Place and Mrs. Put nam is a beautiful and fascinating woman She is a member of an old and distinguished French family She was born in New Orleans and even her name is muscal-Anita Louise Nicaud.
 She is typically French, with the dark coloring, and she is very brilliant and clever. She has travelled extensively and speaks not only French perfectly but Spanish and Italian, and she has always had a passion for music. When she was a little girl every one said she would be great singer
 Mrs. Putnam studied in New Orleans. Later she went to San Antonio where she continued her studies. She spent two years in the. City of Mexico studying music and afterward studied with Green i'll New York.
 When Mrs. Putnam came to Birming- ham she studied for one or two years under Mrs. Guckenburger. She has had excellent teachers, her master in New York ranking among the foremost voice instructors in the United States, but she says she did more solid work with Mrs. Guckenberger, perhaps, than with all her other teachers combined.
 While Mrs. Putnam's training has been so thorough and her masters have recog- nized the brilliant operatie career that could be hers, she has never had any idea of making music a profession, but

The Hebrews do not seem to be so particular
as to the method Of making their wine as they
are regarding the condition Of the utensils which
the grapes and the juice are likely to come in
contact with. In making the Passover wine,
any dish, table. barrel or bottle which may have
come in contact with bread is put aside The
wine must not touch any vessel or article so con-
taminated. Sometimes the grapes are pressed
between the fingers; sometimes they are twisted
in a bag; sometimes a clothes wringer and
washtub serve the purpose for expressing and
catching the juice. and sometimes the grapes
are put into a tub. and. following the methods
of the Jews in their early history, are stamped

In the case Of one East Side German this year,

of wine was made up of three barrels of juice

Possibly the German employs a better process
