the Council of Women's clubs pre- sided over the meeting. There Is not more capable presiding officer in the state and Mrs. Orr admrabl sustained the reputation she had won In this regard. Her introductory remarks, brief pointed. well chosen, gave place to Mrs J. J1 Phillips president Of the Alabama Federation of Women s Clubs, who led the discussion of the day, introducing each speaker in char acteristic clever style with some ref erence to opinion of outside author ities noted in her own wide range of reading or with some personal eXpe- rience. The subject handled so skill fully by these women was "The Con servation of Humanity" which grew out of the subject treated last year, Conservation of Our Natural Re- sources" A graceful Introduction to the literary programme was the group of violin numbers played by MT. Oliver ChalifouX. His selections were played exquisitely and were as beautiful and withal as essential from an esthetic standpoint to the whole we'll rounded occasion as were the pink carnations clustered on the chairman's table. Both flowers and music gave their sweet ness and color to the scene as i'm pressively as were given the serious thoughts of the brainy women who ap- peared on the programme. Mrs. Rich ard Fell of the Culture club. who is not only intellectual but combines with this the much coveted grain or two of humor," gave a brilliant paper on the "Conservation of the Family this be- ing a topic under the general sub ject.
 Miss Lula Bradford of the public schools, presented beautiful paper on '"rhe Child.'' her rich personal experience, her love of children and her thorough un- derstanding of the psychology and peda- gogy governing the very tiniest tots, mak- inkg her address especially helpful. The quaint little anecdote which she tells so well, and the charming metaphors which she often originates when talking of children make one know that she Is something of a poet Referring yester- day to the wide difference in the minds of children she lilSened them to the flow CTS. There are some like the little snowdrops," she said, "the very first flowers to peep out in the spring, preco- cious, forward, eager and capable. Otn- CTS are like the lovely June roses-normal and natural and just as charming as the Others, still, the slower ones who do not develop till the autumn, maybe, are the rysanthemums-noae the less beautiful because they are late. And then one finds them even so late as Christmas the little forced blossoms which are very tender and very he1pess.' And so the children are to her. and her stories of them make all child life lov- able and wonderful, too.

in the first of Mrs. Truman Aldrich's Sunday musicales, has been very much quoted by the American press as to his views on the subject of opera in Eng fish. It was during a visit to the west that he delivered himself in emphatic terms on the subject.
 '"rhe first opera singers in the world are English speaking people; and by golly they go to work and they learn to sing in every old language but their ownr'
 More recently MT. Bispham confided his pronounced views to the Century Maga- zine, tempering his diction, however, to suit the traditions of that dignfed pub lication. The article was given editorial attention in various parts of the coun- try. Advocates of this departure in art, says MT. Bispham, are fond of pointing out the anomaly of singing in foreign languages, operas like "Salome," Mad anne Butterfly and "The Girl of the Golden West" which were originally writ ten in English; and it is a fair point, or it would be if a Strauss or Puccini oouk be found lurking somewhere under the Stars and Stripes or the Union Jack, able to weld English music and English words into complete unity.
 But, as the equal suffrage agitators are wont to say, Its coming whether you Ike it or not" and it will undoubtedly be the beginning of a tremendous stim- uus to English and American compost ton.
