CotiIIon By Amphion Club

The cotillon given last evening by the Amphion club at their hall on Avenue E. Ensley. was most delightful affair. Ev- cry detail was perfectly carried out. The dance hall decorations were red and green -emblematic of the holiday season. A novelty was the word "Amphion' In large letters at the east side of the hall, cedar being the material used Festoons of green and red embellished the walls, while colored electric lights lent subdued eff feet to the scene. The cotillon was led by MT. John Byrum and Miss Bessie Morrison, two of the most popular mem bers of the young society set. The fig ures were unique and novel and many original figures were introduced.
 The favors were very pretty. the prin- cipal one being handsome stiekpin. At midnight an elegant buffet luncheon was served delicious fruit punch was dis pensed during the evening. The affair was most charmingly carried out and much enjoyed by the participants. There were about 40 couples on the floor, which included a few out-of-town guests.

more powerful and bitter enemy than l the liquor traffic, nor has satan more faithful and effective ally for the de- struction of our homes Therefore, as we love our Lord and His kingdom. as we love the peace, prosperity and honor of our homes and our children, let us arise in solid phalanx and go forth un- der the leadership of our God for the de- struction, the utter destruction, of this enemy of all good.

 Convention Called to Order
 The convention was called to order at g o'clock yesterday morning at the First Christian church. There were number of ministers present from vari- ous parts of the state and some of Birmingham's stanchest prohibitionists. Dr. l.. F. Whittcn conducted the devo- tional services, reading the seventh Psalm and offering prayer.
 Treasurer Dr. l. D. Steele then sub mitted his annual report. showing re- ceipts for the year $16,208.20 and dis bursements s1s.12S, leaving a balance of $7s.20. This was followed by Su perintendent Brooks Lawrence's annual report. He stated that after the de- feat of the amendment chaotic condi- tions had arisen, but that since the tour of former Governor Glenn of North Carolina many encouraging reactions had taken place.
 He congratulated the headquarters committee upon it's work and insisted that the senate is composed of men who will not deface the prohibition statutes. "A crisis Is facing us and the only trouble Is that we lack con fidence," he said.
 President Crumpton's annual ad- dress dealt with the situation following the defeat of the amendment. We are now in a position to fight" he de- clared "and we must fight dispensary liquor just the same IS saloon liquor. However, we should not abuse the men in power, but. pray for them"
 The Rev. H. H. McNeill of Opelika made an address on the attitude of the league toward the saloon. He said 1t Is always the same-one of eternal enmity to all evil. We are organized to exterminate the liquor traffic and there will be no compromise" The Rev. J. D. Ray followed with a discussion of the duties of the church in the fight against the liquor traffic. He urged that the church should continue to wage battle against "the greatest enemy of humanity"

among whom he has been working
 seems to have made him reticent, but
 he said when the flood was mentioned:
 T was at Zuni when the dam burst A few days before it went the medi- cine men visited the dam and sprinkled Indian meal at certain point. Then they announced the dam was going to break, that the white men couldn't build a dam that wouldn't break, but that the flood which was coming would not harm Zuni. Then they went away.
 The dam burst just where the medicine men had sprinkled the meal and with sixty feet of water it looked like trouble in the valley. The water came down in a flood several feet deep but rose only to a height which just enabled the village to escape. Zuni was not harmed at all, though the side of the town was just cut. The next day the village was a joyous place. never saw the Indians so happy and demonstrative. They had proved that their people were right and they treat ed the whites with the generosity of toleratiOn. They told us we could have anything we wanted, even to coming into their houses, and you know thev usually won't let you do that at all. It's very hard to get them to let you into their homes"

' Laguna and Santo Domingo Indians
 were among those represented Young men and maidens of the NavahO in Greek beauty, as a layman might put it, were exhibited in interesting con- trast to The Last Council' among the Apaches. or handsome Taos youth or Hopi girl could be studied in contrast
 to the grim, rugged old Apache scout
 who was for many years with Kit Car son.
 One of the most interested of visitors
 to the exhibition on one day was Fred
 erick $. Dellenbaugh of the American Geographical society. who, looking at
 one of his pictures of Walpi, observed
 that one a spot there shown he had
 painted one of the first canvases when, returning from his student days in Paris, he had rushed for that country not only through his own interest in it but in the belief that the American people would be interested in paintings of the disappearing Indians. He made the trip from Paris to the Southwest ern sands in fifteen days.
 Mir. Dellenbaugh remarked on the vastly increased interest felt by the people now over that shown twenty five years ago in these Indians and their life. He told of difficulties at first in inducing the Indians to pose and of how one man after posing for a little while suddenly got it into his head that it wasn't right somehow and disappeared. MT. Dellenbaugh never succeeded in finding him again. Anoth- CT Indian he interested by posing him in the act of shooting and having his aim directly at MT. Dellenbaugh's heart This with its possibilities held the Indians attention thoroughly and Mir. Dellenbaugh was able to finish the canvas It now hangs in the proprie- tors office of the Herald Square hotel, entitled 'The Indian Hunter"

sHRINERs' UNIQUE CEREMONIAL

There is always something unique doing when the Shriners start on their annual jubilation; but invita- tions 1have just been received from Aloha Temple. Honolulu, for the greatest pilgrimage in the history of the Shrine
 The occasion will be the official visit of Imperial Potentate Fred A. Hines to the Aloha Shrine in Feb ruary.
 Word from Hawaii indicates that the local Shriners have completed all the arrangements for the main fea- ture of this pilgrimage, which will be a unique ceremonial held in the very crater of the volcano Kilauea.
 Past Potentate George Filmer of Islam Temple. San Francisco, will be the grand mogNl in charge of the pilgrimage across the South seas.
 They will arrive at Hilo about noon, leaving at once for the Vol cano House; thence down into the crater of Kilauea, where the Shrin- CTS and ladies will view the boiling lava. scorch postal cards and give other life-like limitations of tourists looking at a boiling mountain. After the retirement of the ladies to Vol cano House the concluding sections of the ceremonial session will be held on the floor of the crater, where" says the program, "the victims will be placed in the hands of the Ka- huna for sacrifice to Mme. Pele, the Goddess of Fire. and may she have mercy on their souls. Los Angeles Times
