 The scheme grew out of the fertile brain of George Williams, head of the new business department of the Doh- erty system of lighting, with which the Montgomery Light and Water Power Company Is afiliated. Mir. Williams presented the pictures at the meeting of the National Electric Light Association in Chicago two weeks ago and they were feature of the assem- bly,. When ran that slide of Dexter Avenue, Montgomery, through the ma applauded furiousiy. I had to tell many of them all about the place and it's lighted streets and they could hardly believe such a display was ever made south of the Mason and Dixon line"
 Mir. Williams. in talking of the pos- abilities of a great white oity in Mont gcmery spoke enthusiastically of the wide streets and the abundant room given by the downtown thoroughfares. They are the most beautiful have ever seen." said the visitor. land capa- bie of taking on the most artistic ef- fects in lighting"
 The pictures will be seen at the hour named, 6 to p. m. at the Ma jestic Theatre. Everybody has cor dial invitation to be present. No charge will be made. the idea being simply to show the people the wonderful ef- feet of carefully planned lighting.

FEAST OF WEEKS
 KEPT BY JEWS

sbebouth or the Feast of Weeks which falls on the nftieth day of Pass over. will be observed this Friday by Jews everywhere.
 This festival was at first a spring festival and all Israelites in the days of the prophets were expected to make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. It was, however, also observed as the day on which the Ten Commandments were given to Moses and Israel.
 This latter idea ia the dominant ono of the Jewish people today. In sli re- form congregations the day is devoted to the confirmation of children. The children who had followed a special course of instruction pledge them selves to ever remain faithful to the faith of their fathers.
 At Kahl Montgomery on Clayton and Sayre Streets, Rabbi Ehrenreich will confirm ten boys and girls. Services will be held this evening at o'clock and Friday morning at s:5V o'clock. Special musical arrangements have been made for the occasion.
 4 reception in honor of the confirm ants will be given in the vestry rooms of the Temple Friday afternoon from to o'clock.
