the others the training of good home makers Is paramount
 With these courses in domestic science and household economy there must be n certain amount of culture. I do not mean that everything that Is being taught in Women's colleges today must be sacrificed for them. But the emphasis must be placed on those courses that will besr lit the students to run their homes intelli- gently, make them attractive and bring up strong, healthy children.
 There is already a noticeable falling off in the number of women students in the arts and sciences at Cornell ,universi- ty, and within the past two years there has been marked increase in the domes- tic science and household economy courses. 1t is one of the most significant trends of the times"

 In chatting with Mrs. Smith yesterday about her trip abroad this summer, she said
 Why not your vacation in Europe? Is the very definite question we are pro- pounding A summer in Europe has long since come to be quite the proper and the usual thing to do, the tour ranging from 80 to 90 days, and including the best of all European travel-comprehen- sive and satisfying. But there is a grow and business workers to spend their vaca- ton in the most profitable as well as the most pleasant way, and what can meet these demands so fully as the vacation spent in foreign lands? Where can one find such combination of diversion, rec reation and joyous acquisition of learn ing and culture as the foreign tour af- fords? Today travel across the pond is made so easy and so tempting that one does not look upon little trip over as in the past when it was the event of a lifetime. To meet the demands we have inaugurated the Birmingham Art and Travel Club that will take a seven or eight weeks vacation tour to lands across the sea-"
 will this club trip be included in the regular tours?" asked.

 feels confident the students could make two or three in an afternoon. Instruc-
 ton in pencil sketching and water color painting will be given by Professor
 James, who will conduct the class every day and give individual as well as class
 instruction, applying the principles of
 composition to landscape painting. The benefits to art lovers of actual work in
 the field and country side of picturesque
 Brittany cannot be exaggerated"
 ''It will mean great deal to the Bir-
 mingham schools to have Professor
 James take this trip and bring back new
 ideas and new features for his depart
 ment," I remarked.
 Professor James speaks enthusiasti- cally of his work at the High School and of the course which has broadened from mere superficial study of the making of pretty pictures to the bringing out of
 a sense of art appreciation and a knowl- edge of color harmony which we are glad to learn can be applied to greatest ad- vantage in the home. At Dresden when
 the International Art Congress will be
 held, all the European countries and
 every state in the Union will send exam ples of the best work in the Industrial
 and Fine Arts departments of all schools secondary, normal, college and universi- l ty-and it is of interest to our people here to know that Birmingham will be repre- sented in this display of students work We are much gratiied at the interest that Dr. J. H. Phillips feels in the mat

MAKE FOR A CLEAN CITY
USE DOMESTIC COKE
Goes One-third Farther and Costs No
More Than the Best Soft Coal.

Domestic coke is genuine gas house
coke, made from Swastika lump coal
after all the gas, smoke, tar, dirt and
SCOT have been removed at the gas
works.
1t is refined coal, still retaining the
heating value. all that really counts,
but without the many disadvantages.
1t is perfectly clean, smOkeless
fuel easy. to handle, burns readily, yet
holds a fire for long periods.
It takes $500 pounds of coal to make
1000 pounds Il toni of coke.
Since the bulk and heat units remain
practically the same. you can readily
see that a ton OF coke takes UP as much
of coal, and viii go just as fer if you
use it as we direct, hence the actual
money saving in addition to having a
SmOkeless fuel.
retOrts is particularly valuable for use
in furnaces, low pressure steam boilers,
hot water heating systems, or any
house heating appliance where coal
has been used.
Its special advantages are great
economy, lightness and convenience in
handling; cleanliness and freedom from
smoke, SCOT, dirt and dust.
Its use absolutely does away with all
cleaning Of flueS and chimneys. There
are no foul gases to go through the en-
tire house: no SCOT or dust to blacken
furniture or curtains; not fuel waste or
sitting Of ashes, and the fire can easily
be handled by a woman # the man OF
the house is away.
We are anxious to have every Gus
toner get the best results with coke
For this reason we have special rep
resentatives, thoroughly experienced.
whom we are glad to send without
charge to instruct you or your fireman
how to burn it properly to get all the
results we claim for this wonderful
fuel.

Vanity In Wearing Hair Long.

The church for hundreds or years
fought strenuously against long hair.
declaring 1t to be vain. - doubtless
1t was, and Is Most Of the merry,
pleasure-loving monarchs in history
and their subjects wore the hair in
fastidious and elaborate ways. On
the other hand, the Spartans, the
stern followers of Cromwell. and the
Puritans wore their hair short. The
wax figures in hair-dressing shops,
adorned with masses of puffs and
curls, lead one to think that the pres
ent-day methods of hE.r-dessing are
not unlike those practiced Hundreds
of yeare ago. It seems certain that.
while women still continue to con-
slider puffs and switches as part OF
the necessary paraphernalia Of the
head, men have discarded long hair
for good aud ALL with the exception
of the few musicians. poets. or pain
ters who think it incumbent on them
to let heir locks g. Ow long.
