SIGNS OF THE TIMES s AT HOLIDAY BAZAAR

l When one thinks of the gayeties and | the continued round of entertainments that make Birmingham one of the hap | pest places in the south, 1t would seem | that our women-for women are the nov | ing spirits in the social life of any com munity-were, too busy enjoying the friv- olties of life to spare any moments for l the more serious phases. For those, l however who are conversantS with the l civic charitable and church interests, 1t is plain that even the. gayest butterfly l of them all has her hour of contempla- l ton for her less fortunate sisters and for | the church which meets her spiritual I need Yesterday and the day before, l gloomy and depressing as they were. I brought the faithful women of the South Highlands Methodist church to their ba- gar at Broyles Furniture company and | kept them there in charge of their Christmas articles throughout the day, ready to serve a prospective purchaser. Some of the most prominent women In | society were noted among them, intent upon realizing goodly sum for the ben | eft of the church.

Isn't 1t a glorious day." inquired Miss Isabelle Lowe, yesterday afternoon, as she bade me welcome in her city apartment at the Hillman, her fair hair and laughing eyes, and the deep dimples in her chubby face making her look like a grown up 'Kiddie," as she peeped out from under the pale blue Ncoverlets. and smiled the sweetest sort of smile, that just made you glad all over.
 There was nothing stereotyped in her greeting, for she enthusiastically followed up her inquiry by explaining that it was like a breath of spring after coming from the cold, bleak wintry days up north, and that everything fairly shouted forth down south, as if the joyous spring were here instead of bleak December.
 She confessed that she had been to sleep all day these one night stands, you know), to have noticed that bit of realism had been added by a few trembling drops of rain, which had has tened away, as if ashamed to- spoil SC nice a specimen of natures handiwork "Somehow being in the south again just envelopes me in one great impression oi sunshine, for you must know that I am southern girl, born and bred.
 ,"Where was I born? In Maryland-my Maryland.' she talked on, like the grown up "Kiddie' that she is, and I'm just 21."
 Didn't tell you so?
 That's what she is, just nice, sweet, smiling dimpled kddie who eats choc- olate creams out of a bag and has lot of dolls all dressed in pink and blue, to play with, and you just feel like hugging her right tight and calling her Emmy Lou" or Annie Belle,'' or some old fash toned two story name, like southerners give to their children-who can't help It.
 But I'm married if you please said Miss Lowe "and I'm not a bride, either. I'm a four-years-old married woman. Now then!
 And playing such serious role as Glad?" I couldn't help saying
 "Yes, and it's the very sweetest. dear est, darlingest part that ever. was ere

like to have a placard out in front of
 the theatre which would read: "Glad's rags are made of old red petti- coats.'
 Which would be Glad's rage, but not | Glad rags" 1 suggested with an apology. This little preamble had brought us to the real motif of our intervew-to Glod,
 thought by many, to be the greatest role created in the theatrical world in the past five years, and to no one, is jGlad more wonderful than to the Slim Princess" the girlish looking actress whose personality, she tells me, has been
 largely influenced by the part.
 Ut has been said,' Miss Lowe sug- gested, that The Dawn of Tomorrow l is founded Christian Science. If | Christian Science can lay claim to the 1 ideals of the play, so much more worthy
 is the cause of Christian Science. The play breaches the doctrine of hopefulness
 and absolute faith in God. It is the most
 beautiful theme, the most helpful, the
 most ideal story ever written, in my opin- ! ion."
 { When I suggested that the ideas ran l wonderful little book, In Tune With the
 Inflnite,' | found l was referring to an old friend of Miss Lowe's.
 T know the book very we'll" said she,
 "and I think The Dawn of a Tomorrow does carry much of the same idea; that is, we all have the power WITHIN us if we only realized it. and knew how to use 1t to accomplish whatever we may undertake. Why, l get letters from people nearly every place I play in, telling me what Glad has meant to them. One man in Buffalo wrote me that he had seen the play and it had changed his entire career, and he meant to be a better, truer, more consistent Christian than he had ever been before.
 Ut has taught me so many, many truths," continued the little actress, ner bright eyes shining with enthusiasm, and delight. ''I never meant to be so seri- ous an actress. I started out to be a Mu- sical Comedy soubrette, and when l was in Birmingham last 1t was with Frank Lawler, in Coming Through the Rye. I was the Lady on the White Horse, and

ated Isn't Mrs Burnett wonder, any, way?"
 And the star of 'The Dawn of Tompr- row. looked at me with resignation,s as If to say:
 "Go on now. what question are you going to ask?"
 '1nterviewress think of such quaint things to talk about" she went on, as surveyed the field silently. "They ask me my views on vivsection and suff- rage-Oh, Lordl suffrage is their favorite topic, and hobble skirts and open air sleeping porches and heaven knows what But I'm used to it. My father was a newspaper man. Of course they all ask about clothes."
 If they are women interviewers, Inn sure they do?' I suggested.
 ''Well, I'm not a very dressy person in the role of Glad, you know said the youthful little star as she tucked a pillow under her head and made herself any sort of old rags and scarlet hail land rags a flying, as she says, Glad's wardrobe isn't very extensive.
 At least you don't have to worry over a lack of Individuality, do you?' l sug- gested
 Not bit of it." said Miss Lowe You see, Miss Eleanor Robson is my ideal of the part. l remember once saw her as Vera, the medium, and she fascinated me so that I couldn't take my eyes off of her My idea of the role of Glad is hers. Glad is red headed, you know-she dressed the part that way. Miss Gertrude Elliot didn't. To my idea of thinking Glad is an ideal not mere play and she mustn't be made too home ly. I want Glad to stand out-to rep present. a picture to be remembered, as well as an idea. You know she is spoken of as flame all through the play. Oli- yer Holt in his apartments speaks of her as a flame of life Her favorite color is red, which is very fitting as you see, and what more natural than that the little girl should make herself a GOV ering of old red petticoats. I should

after that l played the lead in The Bish- ops Carriage and a lot of other things, but ohl I'm so glad that I'm GLAD. It's the greatest thing that ever happened to me It's given me so much and it gives everybody else so much. I think MT. Dan iel Frohman expressed the idea of tae way Glad enters into every ones life very conelsely when he said after seeing The Dawn of Tomorrow, that he would al- ways say: Glad and Dandy instead of
 Fine and Dandy"
 And what was it the critics quoted?" asked. "The last lines of the play, wasn't it. when Miss Eleanor Robson mar ried her multi-millionaire husband, Mir August Belmont
 ' I'm alive, I'm alive A9l I'm going to be took care of nowi"'
 Yes, yes,' said Miss Lowe, those are Glad's last words in the play, and every body naturally thought of them when Miss Robson said good-by to the stage and got married. That was The Dawn of a Tomorrow for her. whom I consider one of the greatest actresses that the stage has ever known"

WILL PROTECT DEPOSITORS
Banking Bill Providing for More FIRE.
quent Examinations Reported for
Passage in the Assembly.

Madison.-The last of the PROPOSE
lions recommended by the special
committee on banking of the last
legislature, has been reported for
passage in the assembly by the COM
mittee on finance. For many years
the bankers of the state have advo-
Gated more frequent examinations of
banks on the part of the state bank
ing department and the bill recon-
mended comes as result of the prop
osition made by the bankers to pay
the additional cost imposed by such
an increase of examiners as will as
complish this result. 1t has always
been the policy of the state to re-
Quire the banks examined to contrib
ute to the expense of the department,
pay annually in fees about $1,000 for
this purpose. Under the bill report
ed for passage the banks will increase
their contribution to this amount,
paying in fact more than $4,000 an
nually with the understanding that
there will be two examinations per
year instead of one as now provided.
The bill also increases the number of
bank examiners from three to seven.
At the last session of the Wiscon-
sin Bankers association resolution
was passed advocating the adoption of
this policy on the part of the legis-
lature.
