RECITAL AT HUDSON
Miss Buchanan Gives Graduating
 Recital in Elocution

Marion. March 29. Especial )-Miss Edna Buchanan of Brandon, Miss, gave her graduating recital in elocuton at Judson College this evening. assisted by Miss Lucy Dickinson of Birmingham
 The programme was strong and varied, showing the young readers light and strong work. The opening number a comedy. cutting from The Trans figuration of Miss Philura,' by Kings ley gave the audience an opportunity to judge of the quality of the readers train ing, from the very beginning of the re- eital.
 In an "Ode to the West Wind by Shelly the reader showed keen apprecia- ton of wonderful poem; still another of the beautiful poems that was given in excellent style was Keats. The Eve of St. Agnes"
 In Tennyson's Mariana the atmos- phere was noticeable: this was rendered with sympathy and the climaxes were especially well taken. The programme closed with two scenes from the Tanning of the Shrew." in which the speaker S power and flashing style was shown.
 Not a little of the beauty of the even ing was due to the singing of Miss Dick inson, she being one of Judson's sweet singers who was member of the senior class of last year.
 Following the recital a reception was given by the Phi Mu Gamma sorority of which the reader is a member.

CAPITAL OFFICIALS
 60 HOME ID VOTE
Exodus From Montgomery Began Yesterday-O'Neal
 Going to Florence

s Montgomery, March 70 tspecial)- The exodus of capital officials began today when many of them left for their homes in various parts of the state to take part in the primary election on Monday next. By tomorrow it is doubt ful if there will be as many as dozen officials left in the city, as represen- tatives of all the state departments reside in other sections of the state, and it is regarded as one test of a state officials loyalty to the democratic party to go home to vote.
 One of the fiIst of the officials to leave the city was Attorney General Robert C. Brickell, who left this morn ing for his home at Huntsville. Other officials and clerks of departments left during the day, and few will re- main until tomorrow morning before leaving for their homes.
 Governor O'Neal will probably go to his home at Florence tomorrow night. as it is understood that there are vari- ous matters of importance to keep the executive engaged at his office dur ing Saturday.

educate all the children. prohibited from working. e
 "tS) Maintaining provision for the adequate relief of families dependent upon the work of little children. These things belong to the community. Laws have in themselves no self acting prin- ciple.
 An enlightened public opinion (Which you remember old Talleyrand tells us is 'Mightier than any monarch who ever lived,') is necessary to enforce any law.
 We must create in the state such a public sentiment against any form of the exploitation of childhood that we may bring Alabama up from this wretch ed standard of illiteracy from this condi- ton of thousands of little children work ing, 10, Il and often F hours a day. We believe that the Equal Suffrage League has a mission to do this. Most of us are suffragists because of over work along humanitarian lines, Because we see that In this complex time in which we live men have too great burden, and we think women should share it with him; women can aid with their ballot, as they have done in every state where they have it.. to not only pass child labor bills, but assist in the enforcing of them.
 We must arouse ourselves and see to 1t that child labor is wiped out of eX- istence in Alabama"
 Charles B. Glenn, assistant superin- 5tendent of the Birmingham Public Schools, was the other speaker. His ad- dress on Compulsory Education" pre- sented an important phase of the general subject and revealed a thorough knowl- edge of the Alabama law governing the edueaton of the child. The audience at the parish house was deeply interested in Mr. Glenn's graceful response to Mrs. Murdoch's introduction and fine pre- sentation of his subject
 Representations of tne Birmingham Trades Council were heard from inform ally as to their efforts in behalf of the Birmingham child. They asked the CO., operation of those present to secure more schools and free text books for the chill dren. An informal discussion, in which questions were answered by the two speakers. closed the programme.
 Upon motions made by Clment R. Wood and pr. Eaves committees were appoint ed to investigate matters relating to educational matters and the too early employment of children.

SENIORS PRESENT
 THE SOPHOMORE"
Audience Delighted With Performance at the High
 School Last Night

"The Sophomore" a three-act com edy, presented by the senior class of l the Central High school last night in the auditorium of the high school building, was without a doubt one of tie best amateur performances ever given in Birmingham. The play was given as a benefit for the High School | Improvement association and the audi torium and galleries were crowded to their limit. As a result the senior class will be able to hand over a neat sum to the improvement association. The cast for the play last night was | taken from the senior class and the manner in which the upper classmen- reveled in the art of Thespianism was very entertaining.
 The plot of "The Sophomore is that the star of the football team of a small | collage has been conditioned in physics and the absent minded and eccentric physic professor refuses to permit him to play in the big game of the season unless he can pass ah examination. Of l course the game cannot be won if the | star is out and severa, members of the | student body swipe the list of exam nation questions and give them to the unfortunate star.
 However, it happens that the star is in love with the professors daughter and wishing to be fair and square he burns the questions without looking at them He takes the examination the day before the game and the professor forgets to tell him whether he passed until the game is pat and wins the game and the daughter
 Joseph Cook, as Robert Stewart, the star of the team and the physics nunlb- skull, portrayed his part in an excellent manner and was roundly applauded. Miss Alice Jones as Hope Alden, the profess sors daughter, made very good lead ing lady, Leo Karpees, as the profes- sor, was very successful laugh maker and was ably assisted along that line by Mss Maybelle Patterson as the maid The entire cast was well trained and car ried out the play without break or a flaw.
 of Miss Marguerite Weaver, who is to be congratulated upon the success of her teachings:
 The cast of characters was as follows:
 Robert Stewart, the sophomore, star fullback on the football team, Joseph Cook.
 Bud Kennedy, captain football team, Everette Strange.
 "Reddy" Bannister, Harry White.
 "Kinl1' Simms, Charles Dickinson.
 Buster Brown, Jack Smith
 Livingstone, coach, Joseph Carson
 "Owl' Griggs, greasy grind, Lawrence Gregory.
 Professor Alden, NJ. Az B. B., Leo Karpeies.
 Hope Allen, his daughter, Alice Jones.

FIND CASH BUSINESS PAYS.

R. Wedding & Co., a Hibbing
grocery firm, recently put their bust
ness on strictly cash basis-threw
away their lead pencils and gave
their bookkeeper a vacation. AS a
result, their business has shown a
pleasing increase, and patrons ap-
preciate the fact that they are not
paying for the shortages of the dead
beat, the advantages of price being
given to customers.
We believe the credit system, az
carried on in the range communities,
is the greatest drawback of the
section, and we should be pleased to
see every business house install the
goods for cash only" program in
their daily routine of work. We
believe that what has been found to
be paying venture for one firm
will be found equally successful for
other firms.
