grow handsome blossoms and many of them. The flower market will be a great institution in many ways. Has 1t not been pointed out in these days of suggestions for something else be- sides cotton that Birmingham and it's vicinity have a wonderful soil for growing flowers? So shall the flor ists in the community have inspiration and appreciation; trade in this respect is to be stimulated There are besides many amateur flower growers in Bir- mingham who have really wonderful success. Dahlias and peonies this sea- son reached a marvellous perfection, and. our roses have for years been wonderful.

Charitable Enterprises

The womans auxiliary of the Asso- ciated Charities has eXemplified the fact that the philanthropy for which
 they stand has tremendous hold upon the community: or that the wom- en of the organization are so capable and so popular that they could make any enterprise of theirs a success by
 sheer force of personality; or that their
 entertainments are so novel the gem eraI public enjoys patronizing them.
 Perhaps it is all of these three things
 that contribute to the success of their
 few enterprises since they became an
 auxiliary.
 One of these few was the gift shop
 at the Tutwiler. which concluded It's
 brief life last night That it was a stupendous success every one saw who visited the Tutwiler. The shop was beautiful; and the gifts were just the
 pretty trifles that everybody wanted the women who conducted it were so
 gracious so chatty and so pretty that everyone must needs stop for few
 moments to either buy or falkland having once paused they wished to buy, to be sure. To Mrs. Kettig's exquisite art-and she is an artist just as sure
 ly as if she painted great tapestries and canvases. for there is no more needful art than that of decorating was largely due the beauty of the shop. The women whose dainty needle work produced the fancy bags, and whose culinary skill evolved so many | tempting sweets are as worthy of praise; and those who were clever enough to sell chances on the cotton
 bales contributed greatly to the gen. eraI welfare of the venture as char itable proposition

 assistants on the board of the aux

Hilary, 1t may be well to mention brief ly the philanthropy for which they stand--that being the first premise in the few words of gentle wonderment as to the why of their successes. The philanthropy undoubtedly has a strong hold upon the peoples sympathies for 1t Is an instrument of great good.
 MT. Henry Key Milner, president of the large association to which the woman's committee is auxiliary, is in constant touch with office through which the claims of the needy are handled in systematic and kindly fash
 ion by trained social workers. He stated yesterday that the association not only is careful and quick in it's handling of cases brought to its attention. but that it earnestly desires all people who are philanthropically inclined to send all cases to 1t for aid. He states that men, temporarily in need apply at the of- flee frequently for aid, and the mat ter is handled with all dispatch. In or der that those who ask aid be not paul perized, social workers employed for that purpose investigate every call personally and if worthy, assistance is given; but in the meantime immediate needs are satisfied.
 ''one case I recall" remarked MT. Milner, twas that of a woman who has been assisted by the association for the past several years. She is un- able to provide for herself but she is also, owing to the use of drugs ut terly unreliable and it was discovered not long ago that while the associa- tion was providing her with food and shelter, she was also receiving constant assistance from a well known South Highlands family, whom she had quite deceived about her resources and needs. This family was, unknownigly, doing her harm. If they had reported the case before giving assistance matters could have been much better adjusted There are many heart breaking cases, continued MT Miner where timely and effective aid is given by the or ganization more than could cite to you in a brief conversation. The house of which the association has assumed charge is a blessing in many ways. The retiring room where privacy may be had by those who are weary ana sick. the clean, white nursery where children may be taken and left are aids that count for much.
 'sThe woman's auxiliary In their ef- forts to help have assumed noble re- sponsibility; and theirs Is a phlian- thropy that does not conflict with otn- CT organizations. It may cooperate at any time with Neighborhood House or the Mercy Home or any of the organ izations that care for the poor and distressed. These humanitarian organ izations work best when they work oc- casionally together.

Birmingham artists have done some rare and beautiful work the past few weeks; some of the painters went away to gather inspiration. others who were away came home and found inspira- tion; still others stayed at home and by application and growing familiarity with chosen subjects, contrived to do also some superior work. or the lat . ter group is Miss Hannah Elliott. Thls daughter of the gods" who tow CTS head and shoulders above any crowd and Is n recognized beauty. talked of her autumn work and her Tasks during the summer yesterday as She sat In her studio putting, the fin- ishing touches on the miniature of a Beautiful Mississippi child. Her sur roundings are charming; the big will low chair and couches, a gay Indian rug over which the freight sends } merry glow. and on the wall sketches erd finished paintings that show the tapricious and versatile nature of a tal- knted woman make just the setting to be expected for her.
 My pen sketches for post cards of the Country and Roebuclz Golf clubs" remarked Miss Elliott, were among the interesting things l did this sum mer. But I have completed a babv,s book-a record of a lovely little girls aife-that 1 found a most absorbing task and one that entertained me, too for several weeks. The pages were decorated throughout and illustrated the many precious little incidents that Compose a baby's first experience A 2ittle white chicken, for example, to hescribe the baby's first pet, and an other page adorned with blue birds, for the first word the child said, bird She is an adorable baby and so in- teresting that the book, while requir- ing patient effort was a pleasure to do."
 She has also concluded a miniature of Major Tutwiler and the little girl with bobaed hair whose likeness she has faithfuny caught, will soon see the completed ivory presentment of her features. There are miniatures in shadow box on the studio wall of her mother. a beautiful patrician lady of several type" models and one. com pleted sometime ago of q former Bir- mingham citizen, Mir. W. J. Dangaix of Paris. Miss Elliott likes to draw with pen and ink and has drawn some capi- tai things recently During the sum mer she sketched the Richard w. Mas sey garden in pen and ink, making decidedly successful and finished pie ture.

 An amateur opera, according to MT. Milner, and as everyone knows, Is lots of fun to the participants and a de- lectable offering, to the audience of friends. This one will be especially en- joyable since it Is to be so beautifully produced by Mir Lawrence a gifted singer and experienced director, that it will not be in the amateur class except in that the participants are local. s-s- .tf-
 People who travel have wondered why flower shows have never become southland of flowers. The flower show is the spring festival of festivals in Paris and London and in New York, where wealthy and fashionable owners of vast estates vie each with the oth- CT in their exhibitions of rare flow CTS.

CLUB OPENS SEASON

The season of dinner dances at the Country club opened last night after lengthy period during which the ball. room was undergoing repairs. Ivory and white is the chosen motif for the spa cious room and was developed in an exquisitely artistic fashion by the ex- perts who had the work in charge. The large reception Friday night introduced the members to the new ballroom, and all members were delighted with the results-chiefly with the liberal space for dancing. A large number of guests attended the first dance given under the new conditions.
 MT. George Gordon Crawford had a party of 40. seated 10 at each of four
