We have incorporated personal side of the work in connection with the general sub- jects which will be taken up. Tho teach CTS personal welfare Is to be the main theme this year. and his or her bodily health will be one of the main Issues. They will also have the advantage of learning a great deal about calesthenics, we having made preparations for the gymnasium to be open throughout tho en- tire session.

issue. consequently they were worthless.
 Through the Chamber of Com mercc the matter was taken to the legislature and bill was passed declaring an auditorium pnbiic building. This law has been stEned by Governor Henderson md fs now operative.
 Under this net 1t would he peces- snry for Birmin gh ham to vote an other bond issue for an auditorium as attorneys hold that despite the legisiature's action the former is- sue cannot he disposed of.
 The earliest date at which bond issue could he submitted would be sometime next month, and the aues- ton then would arise whether an auditorium could be completed by May In time for the grand opera season. Public spirited men have expressed the hope that the next bond issue be for more than S2OO.- GOO, so that q thoroughly adequate building cnn be erected.
 The suggestion wns made yes terday that it would be well worth while to build temporary audi torium if necessary and delay the bigger project until next year.

Atlnnta's grand opera season has fin the past been the grcntest nn- nual music attraction in the south and 1t has offered the only oppor- tunify to thousands of people of the south to see and hear the greatest operatic stars In the world.
 One of the advantages of Atlanta has been It's accessibility from all the southern states. but it Is felt that Birmirghnm fs even more cen tral and offers even better railroad facilities than the Georgia city. If this great galaxy of stars could be brought to BirminEham for a week next year it Ia believed that the necessary monetary guarantee could be raised in Birmingham In short order.
 An auditorium is easily available for Birmingham. As is known, sev- eral months RgO people of Bir- mingham voted s20O,O0O in bonds for the purpose of erecting mu- nicipal auditorium.

GETS THIRTY DAYSAT HARD LABOR FOR ACC0ST|NG GIRL
Crowd in Recorders Court to Hear Case, But Are Disappointed-Over in
 Two Minute S

As Ali Martin admitted to Judge Da- wis of the recorders court that he |spoke to little Violet Bernard on Fri day night near the postoffice the re- Icorder said: T sentence you to 30 days at hard labor; these mistakes of identity must |stop."
 Martin had testified that he had made mistake as he was under the Impression that he knew Mrs. Henry Fitzgerald and Violet Bernhard when he accosted them. The recorders court was crowded to capacity yesterday morning when the Martin case was called up. Yesterday mornings Age-Herald had carried a | full account of how Martin had spoken to the child and had then been severely handled by Mrs. Fitzgerald, who is the wife of a performer at the Hest theatre, and had then been taken Ito jail. However, the curiosity seekers in the |courtroom were disappointed as the entire proceedings were oyer in two minutes.
 Guilty or not guilty?" said Judge Davis to Martin, as the case was called. Well, judge. 1t was like this.'' said Martin.
 What's your plea?' sharply demand cd Judge Davis Not guilty" All right; now go ahead and tell me about it." Well. judge, I thought I knew the woman and the little girl, so I spoke to them" Thirty days at hard labor: next case" and Martin found himself out of the courtroom and in jail before he could explain any further. Mrs. R. L. Hearn of 210s Eighth ave- nue, north. stated to an Age-Herald reporter that Martin had not lived at her residence for several months and then had lived upstairs with another family.

It was understood in Birming- ham yesterday thnt the MetropoI- itnn Grand Opera company will not appear in Atlanta next season and that Birmingham has m excellent opportunity to bring the grand opera stnrs here.
 It was rumored that Otto Kahn of the Metropolitan company had stated recently in New York that his company would appear no more in Atlanta.
 While nothing is known here definitely on the subject, it Ia thought that perhaps the Frank lynching may have had something to do with the decision to make . change in the annual southern en- gngcment.
 One of the conditions necessary for Birmingham to get this great attraction fs said to be the erection of a suitable auditorium for the accOmmod ntion of the crowds which attend from all parts of the south.
