cipal feature of the regular monthly
meeting of the Merchants Protective as
ISOLATION, which was held last night in
the associations quarters in the Jeffer-
son County bank building.
Jerome *. Sterne, a leading local adj
vertising expert. spoke briefly on the
subject and made many interesting points
against the use of these stamps by mer-
chants. Many members of the associa
ton took part in the discussion which
followed MIR. Sterne's remarks referring
to legislation regulating the trading
stamp business, cities which have legally
eliminated them, and the effects being
felt locally.

THE GREAT MEN OF
HISTORY DESCRIBED
AS WILDLY AS CHAR
ACTERS OF TODAY
One of the Charms of Larned's His
tory

History without the human figure
would be as lonely as a treeless land
scape, and Larned gives color and life
to his wonderful world history by his
vivid portraitures of the great men of
each of his six historic epochs. -
character sketches clothe the dry bones
with flesh and blood,-and life itself
pulsates in his pages. The great men
of the past have been selected by til =
severset of all judges-time." says EN-
erson-and Larned presents them at the
bar of Time with stern impartiality
that commands the administration and
respect of all scholarship. This freedom
from bias and prejudice Is what makes
Larned's History of the World the
greatest work of its kind ever written.
The Age Herald had this in view when
it first Joined the syndicate of news
papers that are offering 1t to their read
ers almost as a gift, and its reception
by the general public has been so cor
dial and emphatic that there is now no
doubt that this great five-volume his
tory fills want that is universal Those
of our readers who have not vet acted
on the advice so often printed in this
paper are again urged to lose no time
in clipping the history cupons appear
ing in each issue.

Subcommittee on Amateur Plays
The subcommittee on amateur plays
has been organized with Miss Isabelle
c. Moser as chairman. Miss Moser Is
Wen known among the teachers of the
CITY with whom she has been asso-
clated during the past two years. She
IS the niece of Mrs. Leonard r. Beecher
and shares with her aunt an intense
love for the drama and the stage The
members of the committee are, Miss
Isabelle G. Moser, chairman; Mr. Hugh
Martin, Miss Leona Plosser, Mr. Hugh
Craig
According to Miss Moser the pur-
pose of forming amateur clubs lies in
the very nature of drama itself which
is written first of all TO be acted:
hence, no study could be regarded as
finished without attention to this FUN
damental. In the furtherance of this
purpose, the members of the subcom-
mittee are ready to offer suggestions as
10 possible plays for production adj
Vislng AS to the special merit of the
plays recommended by the drama
league, giving suggestions for costunl-
ing, stage settings and for practical
stage directing
The committee hopes to reach out to
the various committees of the city with
the idea of encoura etng amat eur act
ing. AS an initial step in this diree-
ton they have under consideration now
the productions, at an early date, of a
Play bulletined by the Drama league.
RMS VIII serve as an example of what
organized amateur clubs may unler-
take. Thus this branch of the center
hopes to do for the Drama league the
work that the demonstration does IN
any new project. The amateur stage,
after all, is really the laboratory in
which students of the drama may ex-
pertinent, and thus learn practically
the technique of the drama in a con
crete form.
Another ambition is to corre1ate the
work of the study clubs with the work
of the amateur production clubs.
Should a club nave under considera
ton one of Lady Gregory's inimitable
one-act Irish plays, the producing de-
partment of the center. upon the re-
quest of those primarily interested
might stage that particular play.

SAYS SOLONS WILL

Fife of Tuscaloosa Thinks
Time Will Show Wisdom
of Their Action

Fred Fite, who represents Tusca-
loosa in the legislature. believes that
the legislature Will yet acquit itself
with honor While a visitor to Bir-
mingham last night, he said:
The recess committees are doing. in
nay opinion, valuable service. The
chief function of the recess commit
tee on investigation is to deter future
clerks and officials from following a
careless If not a criminal course. The
committees on finance and judiciary
have serious problems with which 10
contend. | believe that when they re-
port everybody in the state will find
that the legislature in creating them,
acted wisely"
Mr.. Fife defends the bne-back
speller bill for which he voted 1t
is his opinion that that book should
be made a standard book of study in
schools over which the state has ju.
risdiction. He believes. too, that as
an eNemplificdtion of the contention
of the legislators of the lower house
that no one can spell who has not stud
died the biueback speller, the law
makers should accept the challenge 10
a spelling-bee which has been extended

newspapers have had much to say, is
good bin. l secured the amendment to
the bill which requires proprietors of
cafes to print on their menu cards

That bill. as is generally known, has
passed the senate. 1t is yet to receive

the most important activities that are
being undertaken by the educational
committee. Miss Marguerite Weaver
assisted by Mr. George Cox and Miss
Marguerite Todd, is in Charge of this
department The work of this depart
ment will afford much pleasure and
valuable training to the children of
birmingham. Children are naturally
initiative and find their greatest joys
in acting and playing. They form their
ideals from the impressions that they
receive from day to day. hence if they
are ever to appreciate the best and
most wholesome types of drama. they
must be given the opportunity to see
and discuss good plays. Miss Weaver
states that she and her associates are
preparing to organize chlldren's study
circles in every section of the city
end to introduce in these circles panto-
mime work that will make the study
of the drama attractive to the mem
hers of the circles. The department
hopes to cooperate with the Play
ground association, and with other
similar organizations with the purpose
of teaching the children acting
games" 1t would be interesting to

ing done in Chicago and other cities.
