Home Products Exposition

Birmingham's first Home Products exposition, which was held last year, was highly creditable, but the second venture, which is to take place in Au- gust, should be even more comprehen- sive and impressive than the first.
 Many manufacturers have already signified their intention of being rep resented. There are more than 300 manufacturing concerns in the Bir- mingham district. If only half of them made exhibits the exposition would be a very large affair. But why not expect an exhibit from each industrial plant? All manufactured products can be so arranged as to present an attractive appearance, and the exhibition as whole can be made decidedly artistic in effect.
 Few projects will do Birmingham more good than great exhibition of homemade wares. It was a happy idea of bringing the exposition and the Alabama merchants convention in conjunction. The merchants came in large numbers last year, and they and their friends will be here by the thousands in August next. They will be greatly interested in the Home Products exposition, and the citizens of Birmingham cannot become too familiar with the industrial resources of this district. The exposition last year, although gotten up hurriedly, was revelation to the public. The forthcoming event should not only be a revelation to citizens living here abouts, but it should be of sufficient breadth and importance to impress visitors from any part of the United States and cause them to exclaim in Birmingham's favor.
 Let every manufacturer support the enterprise with enthusiasm and the result will be of far-reaching benefit. Nothing will pay this community bet ter than a first class exposition of home products.

For his great work Sir George Williams was knighted by the late Queen Victoria and today China, Japan and India regard the associa- tion as one of the most effective agencies in bringing the message of Christ to their people. It has been de- clared that the institution is the shadow of the man, and so great was the humanity which dwelt in the soul of it's founder that in the association Sir George Williams has a shadow that reaches around the entire world.
 It is among the thoughtless and young that the church often fails to reach that the association is such a factor of religious influence.

of his judges over to his side, would not allow him to continue.
 The reading and answering of the charges took up many hours. and finally the sentence was pronounced. It was the expected sentence, one of death. After the trial he was conveyed to the castle, where he spent the night in prayer. The next day a sub-prior came to his cell and asked him if he would receive holy communion, which he gladly would have done, but this was refused by the cardinal. Soon after. the jailers came and put on a black coat, to which hung little bags of gunpowder. He was placed against a great tree, the soldiers were put around to prevent any attempted rescue. The cardinal and the prelates were seated in the foretower, which was hung with tapestry, and he was then tied to the stake. Upon the fire being lit, the pow der blew up, but the captain of the castle, seeing that he still lived, exhorted him to be of good courage. He then prophecied that the cardinal himself should meet an awful end within a few days (which prophecy came true) and committing his soul to God. the flames quickly consumed his body

A DistlnguIshed Family

Announcement was made in the Bir- mingham papers few days ago that Sen ator Frank S. White had given Horace Harding of Tuscaloosa the appointment to West Point Military academy" said Dr. T. w. Palmer of Montevallo. MT Harding received the highest grade in d preliminary competitive examination for admission to the Military academy at the same time that Myron Dillon of Bir- mingham won the appointment to the Naval academy.
 Perhaps there are few people in Bir- mingham or Tuscaloosa who recognized in the name of Horace Harding the grandson of the late Horace Harding, who designed and constructed the great locks and dams across the Warrior river ct Tuscaloosa: that he is a nephew of MT. w. P. G. Harding, for many years pres ident of the First National bank at Bir- mingham. and now a member of the fed eral reserve board; that his father is Col Chester Harding. United States army. president of the board of commissioners of the city of Washington. who also re- ceived his appointment to West Point in competitive examinatio1 held at Birmingham about 30 years ago. was

Children's Educational Theatres

The object of children's educational Theatres is to develop self-expression. The first theatre of this kind was established in New York some years ago and the movement has since spread to other cities. It is unique form of settlement work and one that not only quickens the minds of chil- dren to a remarkable degree, but teaches poor children of the slums stories those in more fortunate cir cumstances learn at home. The edu- cational theatre in intended to reach particularly the poor children of cities, although any child, whether rich or poor, would take lively in terest in it and doubtless receive practical advantages not to be had in school.
 Some people think that children's educational theatre seeks to make actors and actresses, but that is not the object at all. In fact, it is quite the c4sntrary. To offset any such idea, and particularly to obviate anything approaching to the "star system, '' children taking prominent parts in one performance will at the next per formance act as dressers or scene shifters, and any latent idea that they may have that they are the "whole show" is quickly done away with.
 There are several complete casts trained for each play given, the play being as a rule fairy story. The children study their parts months be- fore the first rehearsal is held. They are asked their ideas of the play by the directors and how they think each part should be interpreted. They sup ply their own gestures, make their own costumes and as far as possible paint their own scenery. Their fact ing" is not really acting, but merely their interpretation of what they think character in play typifies.
 Whenever possible their suggestions are carried out in a performance. If child shows a proper conception of "stage business" the directors are careful to let his ideas be incorporated in the performance. Children are asked how they think certain scenes should be staged and how entrances and exits should be made. In fact every detail of performance is sub mitted first to their judgment and it is remarkable how readily they grasp the significance of a play. They don't learn how to act, but their minds are rapidly developed and they are taught not only self-expression, but self-re- liance.

The PrOdigaPs First Return

"He came to himself" Luke 15, IF.
 Before the prodigal returned to his father, he returned to himself.
 He thought, he realized, he came to himself. Sin sometimes separates from self suddenly. We say, "he is beside himself;" or "he has lost his head;" referring to some sudden gust that has. swept "him" away from him. self. But sin is most dangerous when it takes us from ourselves by slow insidious degrees. And that is the usual way. There is the impercepti- ble slipping to leeward, and after awhile we awake far out of course, in dangerous waters maybe, or even upon the reefs. This young man had no plan of harlots and riotous life, when he demanded his part of his fathers estate. But little by little he fell away, and realized later with a start how far he had drifted.
 Sin has certain unreal fascina- tion, falseness of promise, an in- toxicating quality, which suits we'll this notion of coming to oneself after having indulged in it.
 John in Revelations says, "The locusts had on their heads, as it were, crowns like gold" the gold was only seeming, and the crowns were only "as it were" Burns says laughingly of pleasures, Pleasures are like pop pies spread-you seize the flower, the bloom is she'd" But it is tragically true of the pleasures of sin.
 Virtue is like deposit in a savings bank. It is backed by money, by law, by character. It gives solidity and purpose to life, and is in the nature of growing capital. Vice is like an in vestment in salted mine. It is backed by no money, no law, no char acter. Instead of solidity, it gives fluidity to life, because it enflames with wild and unreal hopes. Instead of being capital, little bit on the rock bottom for beginning, it drops on through and is gone forever. And so far from being wealth that is 
 growing, it is loss that is growing, as it blows it's assessments deeper and deeper into the vital reserves. Vice is gilded palace with flaring lights, dizzy music, gawdy clothes, whirling painted people. It is open at night when show and tinsel and glitter have their chance to parade as genuine. One returns the next day and the place has no real existence, Nothing now but old bare walls, star ing seats, cheap tattered finery, stale smells and sorry memories.
 Sin has farther a certain divisive
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-06-07

quality, tendency to separate the strands of personality, that suits well this notion of returning to oneself after indulgence in it.
 It is in line with this quality that sin compels association with uncon- genial people. I have seen a Yale man sitting under railroad tank with three other tramps. I have seen a Harvard man kneeling at form with ten other "bums." I have seen an English gentleman in the steerage.
 And in line with this also, that sin compels experiences that are incon- gruous. It is my fine fellow, who in sin comes to gaze at the wallowing mire, and to smell pig pens. Mira beau, the dandy, comes through sin to wear on his face the horrid car buncles, which Carlyle describes as copper knobs. Gehozi, covetous of finery, gets his scarlet robe, but finds it mocked by scaly face.
 Sin scatters the personality as some diseases scatter the brain stuff. It separates will, judgment and desire and holds them apart, not only vast ing each, but preventing their union. Blessed is the man who accepts the invitation and the power of God and comes to himself.

Trinity Sunday

In the liturgical churches today is known as Trinity Sunday-the feast of the Most Holy Trinity. In the words of a well known religious writer, Every Sun day is dedicated to the worship of the Triune God, and is called accordingly the Lords day; but the first Sunday aftei Pentecost is appointed by the church a special feast of the Holy Trinity, because this mystery as the fundamental doc Urine of the Christian religion, began al once to be preached by the apostles as soon as they had been enlightened and strengthened by the descent of the Holy Ghost"
 With Trinity Sunday ends what is known technically as the Eastertide In the Roman Catholic church the Sundays from Trinity to the end of the ecclesias- tical year are numbered and designated after Pentecost," but fin the Protestant Episcopal church they are numbered from Trinity.

Seventieth Anniversary of Y. M. c. ,.

Seventieth Anniversary of Y. M. c. A.
 Yesterday was the seventieth anni- versary of the organization of the Young Mems Christian association, an institution which has exceeded in ex- pansion and rapidity of growth all other religious societies; the Salvation Army possibly excepted.
 Founded by Sir George Williams then only lad, of Bridgewater England, seven decades ago, the organization has become world. wide and influential in every lanc where the religion of Christ is known
 The movement initiated by Sil George Williams among fellow clerks found expression eleven years later ir the so-called Paris Basis, which is : simple yet comprehensive declaration of faith and purpose, the twin in spirations of the association.
 Today the Young Mems Christian association is well established in fit, countries with over million mem bers, of whom soc, ,000 reside in Amer lea. It's buildings, which in many local ities are to be ranked as palaces, arc valued, with their equipments, al 4116e000, ,O0O, four-fifths of which are to be accredited to this country. Even
