NUISANCE
PRINCIPAL OF BAKER
SCHOOL REGISTERS
COMPLAINT
Says Switching Interferes
With the Work Of Pupils
in the School.

AitHouSH similar complaint was
made several months ago, at which
time the matter was dropped upon
promise of the railway officials to eli
inmate the nuisance, Principal John
Woods. of the Baker school, in COM
Schools 0. S. Jones, read at the regu-
lar monthly meeting Of the board of
education last night, protested against
the interference with studies caused
by the switching in the Northern Pa
cific yards. After considering the
question briefly, the communication
was referred to Chairman c. 3. Stew
art, of the board Of education, who
was authorized to confer with Prose
cutting Attorney Everett J. Smith as
to the steps that can legally be taken
to prevent the continuance of the nui-
sance.
The communication from Professor
Woods is as follows:
Il would like once more to call your
attention and through you the atten-
ton Of the Board Of Education to the
almost constant annoyance caused by
the switching of trains on the streets
by the Baker school. During the last
much worse than usual. The noise is
often so great that it is simply i'm
possible to hear pupils recite, and this
is kept up so continually that some
days almost every recitation is inter-
fered with. 1 sincerely hope that
something can be done to modify this,
at least"
Previous Complaints.
There have been a number of COM
plants upon this score during the past
year. and upon one occasion when the
matter was brought to the attention
of the board of education through a
communication from the principal OF
Baker school, the officials of the
northern fdCIIlC company agreed TO 90
the switching during school hours III
the upper section of the yards, and
keep the engines from molesting the
students and instructors. However,
the company is said to have failed in
making good the promise, for, Accord
ing to the statements of Mr.. Woods,
the noise and confusion has grown in
volume with the increased traffic at
tendant upon the handling of the pres
ent wheat crop.
Just what action will be taken is
hard to determine as yet, no detailed
investigation having been made. It
is likely the prosecuting attorney will
render an opinion to the board of edu-
cation in the near future. advising
what action to take and to just what
degree the railroad company can be
compelled to eliminate the switching
on side tracks in the vicinity Of Baker
school.

Mrs Moretti Talks Charmngy of Their Future PansBeau tful Piece of Statuary For Caruso-Marie Doro
 Niece of the Morettis
By DOLLY DALRYMPLE.

It Is not infrequent that the life of so distinguished an artist as Signor Giuseppe Moretti demonstrates the idea of the light being hid under the bushel-the wom- anly instinct of giving all to the genius with whom her life is linked. In the case of the Morettis this is in a meas ure true and while Mrs. Moretti has not become famous as an artist, she possesses many of the attributes which are far greater-a splendid womanliness, a deep and broad mind, beautifully cultivated, and a culture far beyond one of her years. Indeed when l chanced to drop in for a little call with Mrs Moretti during the past few days, when she and Signor Moretti were here. for llt- tie farewell visit to their many friends, en route to their future Italian home, I was so pleased with Mrs. Moretti and her delightful personality that I could not refrain from so expressing myself, and giving others the benefit of pleas ant little chat I had with her about the future of these two people in whom Birmingham is greatly interested l.
 After a few minutes chat with Signor Moretti, l found that Mrs. Moretti and I could have a nice little talk of a half hour between engagements and so I said:

 Mrs. Flournoy Rivere presided at the organ and with the assistance of a se- lected chorus of splendid voices rendered a brilliant programme preceding the cer emony She gave seven selections in her organ recital, among them the "Seren- ade" by Flick, "Ah, I Have Sighed To Rest Thee,' and several other selections. Immediately before the ceremony the bridal chorus from "Lohengrin, was sung and this merged artistically into Men delssohn's wedding march as interpreted by Mrs. Rivers. The ushers were Dr. s. H. Irwin, MT. Samuel C.. Smith, MT. James T. Christian and MT. H. T. Brooks. They were followed by the matron of honor, Mrs. James Fletcher Tippen, who was gowned in white embroidered chiffon and carried white roses tied with green maline.
