The Social Bankruptcy Act was the first and only thing they talked about when they met upon the street. The notorfety it had gained for them had startled The Impractical Person: of course The Placid Person was not moved beyond a half pleasureable, half annoying sense of conspicuousness.
 Daring my matutinal perusal of the newspaper I remarked with more of surprise than qualification that you had got us all into the public prints" said The Placid Person dryly to The Impractical Person, You know" and the Placid Persons smile was a labial masterpiece of assumed ingenuousness, you know Shakespeare wrote. What great ones do the less will prattle of. I commend that author to your thought- full consideration.
 "But surely" protested The Imprac- tical Person, as he drew a cologned cigar and leveIled the weapon at his friend. you did not object to the use of your name in the newspaper?"
 My name, mo-" replied The Placid Person: T am quite human; my name in type Is beautiful and its appearance affords me almost fneffab1e delight. Nor did take umbrage at the employ ment of even my sentiments. But the reproduction of my language was dis tasteful"
 I tuOuHnb NHS HCWSpdpefinE pcTSOH very fair and accurate" rejoined The Impractical Person Tt Is true that the story left the reader dubious as to whether the Person who Periodically Appears had penchant for Polite Parties or was a constant attendant upon Police Parties. Now Police Par ties generally follow rides which, though very expensive, their prices ranging upward from s5 and costs, are not in any sense sociable like hay rides or tallyhos, and 1t seemed to me that the darksome shadow cast upon the reputation of the Person Who Pe- riodically Appears was notably unjust, for I don't think the creature has been arrested in a twelve-month. But you your names weren't even misspelled."
 You misunderstood me-" replied The Placid Person. If I had known that I was to be quoted should have been more elegant, my language would have been more exquisite, in short, my ex- precision would have been polysyilabic. Why use, The Polysyllabic Person alr ways says, why use a short word when long one means just as little and makes so much more noise? But I must say that your proposed leglsia- ton for the relief of our unfortunate friend has met with a popular favor had not anticipated find that though I have devoted more than two

Birmingham Hot Artists Want
 Recess Committee to Meet There.

Birmingham Is trying to get the three recess committees of the Ala bama Legislature to hold their meet ings in that city. Nobody knows why Birmingham made that break unless 1t was because that city objected so much to legislation passed by the Legisia- ture and to get even, is trying to have some of the legislators punished by keeping them in Birmingham during the hot months.
 It developed in the past two or three days that one or more of the industrial bodies of Birmingham had been writing to members of the recess committees urging them to hold their sessions In that city. No argument was advanced as to why the committees should leave the pure atmosphere of the Capitol and assemble in the smoke-laden atmos- phere of Birmingham. It is supposed that Birmingham merely wanted a lit- tle more advertising. This much Is given her without charge.
 Birrnin ngham, having surplus of fur naces is expected to suffer from an over-production of hot air and some times 1t breaks out suddenly. It's lat est manifestation Is the harmless cor respondence asking members or the committee to leave the Capitol with an its libraries, it's records. It's docu- ments and its facilities to meet in Bir- min gham. just to give Birmingham some more advertising.
 Birmingham has been doing some great things on paper. The Capitol was moved from Montgomery to Bir- nin1ham some twelve years ago--on paper. Some months ago the Alabama Polytechnic Institute was taken from Auburn and carried to Birmingham-on naper little while later Birming- ham sent a delegation to Washington which compelled the Federal govern ment to locate e sub-treasury at Bir- mingham--but 1t was only located on paper.
 Perhaps the Birmingham man who was struck by the lofty idea of having the recess committees meet in Bir- mingham will arrange to have the ses- sions held in the Capitol up there, or it is possible that one of the college

They were accepted and three copies have been given to contractors, who are expected to bid for the contract Tho archltect is expected to be in the city today and he will remain to represent the com pany until the construction or the theatre has been completed.
 The new playhouse will be located just east of The Advertiser building on Dexter Avenue. The fot upon which it will be constructed was nongnt several weeks ago and s ortly after wards Tho Advertiser announced that the theatre would be constructed. The lot has already been cleared of It's former encumbrances and there is to be no delay in the commencement and the completion of the theatre.

 The theatre building as planned VIII contain space for several stores, to be leased by the company, and the main entrance to the theatre Itself will be between them. The front rooms of the upper floors, it is expected, will be oe- cupied as office rooms.

buildings may be used for their meet ing. The college authorities would certainly not object to having the Leg islators work in one of the college buildings. But an imaginary commit tee meeting in an imaginary building and doing imaginary work would not give Birmingham much advertising.
 Senator Henry r. Merritt of Macon. who was in the city yesterday, over looked the numerous side to the prop osition, and discussed 1t seriously. He was heartily opposed to it..
 ''I do not see how the Code Com mittee could meet at any place but Montgomery" said Senator Merritt. "rhe Committee will have to have &C., of reference books. Tho best law H. brary in the country is the library of the Supreme Court of Alabama. am quite confident that the other mem- bers of the Committee will feel as I do about 1t, that the Committee should hold it's meeting as close to that libra ry as possible"
 The Legislature raised two other committees to sit during the recess. One of these is the committee to pre- pare a municipal code, and the other is to investigate the fertilizer trust. The latter committee may do some travelling and it is possible that 1t win stop in Birmingham. simply be- cause it will have to.
 No matter how opposed to the Legis- Iature and it's works a man may be, he will agree that punishing members of the committees of the Legislature by making them stay in Birmingham during the summer months. Is carry ing hatred too far. In the first place, it would be unconstitutional in that the Constitution of Alabama forbids any cruel or unusual punishment.
 In the meanwhile, the Montgomery Commercial Club win open up cor respondence with sonne members of the Committee to assure them they need not be frightened. They will not nave . nroverbial hospitality Is expressed as 5nnch today as ever before, and the latch string still hangs on the outside.
