SETTLE DETAILS
 OF MERGER TODAY
A. H. Woodward and Harry M. Atkin- son Will Hold Conference in
 New York

In New York this morning A. H. Wood ward. vice president of the Woodward Iron company. and Harry M. Atkinson, president of the Birmingham Coal and Iron company. will confer and perhaps settle many details in connection with the merger of the two companies, which is now being arranged.
 Mir. Atkinson and Mr. Woodward are handling the multitude of details in con nection with the merger in order to fa- cilitate the work The officials went to New York from Atlanta Saturday.
 IIi local industrial circles the final clos ing up of this industrial transaction is expected to be announced shortly. In effect the merger has already taken place and tfere only remains the essential de- tails to close the entire proposition.
 Tho least step in connection with the merger is of large interes. lere. as ex- merits hold that no transaction has taken nIace since l9o7 when the Steel corporation aco,ired the Tennessee company, which is of so much importance to the indus .trial situation Although the Woodward con,psnv has made it very plain that no steel plant will he constructed at any time soon, yet the improvements that will he installed later will involve the e;.- penditare of a great amount of money and will be Of great importance to this district in every line of endeavor.

THE KIRMESS
By THE KIRMEss KAT

It is very interesting to note the great variety of dances that will be seen in the Kirmess to be presented for the So ciety for Infant Mortality and St. Mary s Free Kindergarten at the Jefferson the atre April II. 12 and E. It is to be hoped that while the Kirmess quickens interest in dancing. and brings out grace the younger contingent, and even those who are old enough to know better, will by comparison see the ugliness, graceiess- ness and utter lack or dignity of the "Grizzly Bear" "Turkey Trot" and yes, could almost head the list with that Boston Dip Dancing Is the rhythm of movement, why make it discordant?
 In the Kirmess will be introduced three operas in. tabloid form, Carmen, Merry Widow and Mikado. In addition to these there will be six national dances the Spanish with it's inspiring castanets, the Gainesborough with it's famous florodo. d double sextet. the Roman with it's 70 Car land girls, the Swiss with it's electric lighted swings and men swinging the girls out over the footlights and the fas- cinafing little dance of Parsan coquettes, to say nothing Of Young America as rep resented by the Phorty Phunny Phellows Just keep your seats and we will trans port you from Birmingham to the nowery Kingdom, from Seville to Maxims from Rome to Bohemia and back again to Bir- fringham by way of England and guar antee you safe and pleasant voyage. with many little side trips not in Cook 5 regular tour.
