 ment of Closing MOTION PICTURES
 TO AID CHARITIES Permission Has Been Given for Sun day Operations Which Are
 Expected 10 Net
 Neat Sum


 The "Closed For Lack Of Funds sign was torn on the door of the Associated Charities dormitory at Fourth avenue and Twentieth street yesterday morning and Louis Gelders, owner of the building who has been donating the room to the Asso- ciated Charities. announced last night that the dormitory would be kept open until warm weather came.
 Mir. Gelders stated that several peonle yesterday offered him funds to pay the slight expenses of operating the dormf- tory, but he told them to wait until a committee was formed to handle the funds and he. therefore, stated that he wished to make request through The Age-Herald for volunteers to serve on this committee to raise the money and administer 1t for the operation of the dormintory for about 30 days.
 'The actual expense of the dormitory would not be over s2o or s9O but hope to have this committee raise enough money to keep the wood yard of tho Associated Charities in operation so that these men may be fed, and to both feed them and give them a place to sleep it probably would cost near se50
 This money I believe. can be raised among the people of Birmingham in a few minutes if a committee of prominent cit- izens will volunteer to take the initiative. solicit the funds and promise to admin ster it."
 Dormit0ry Is Open
 Upon MT. Gelders' instructions the dor mitory was opened last night after hav- t...x Associated Charities Tuesday night only Il men slept in the hall Tuesday night. the night previous there having been 1O5. 1t Is stated. What became of the 90 men Wednesday night no one yesterday ap- peared to know
 Arrangements are under way for the operation of the motion picture shows Sunday for the benefit of the Associated Charities The city commissioners have gOen their consent and if the theatre operators agree the shows will be run. There Is practically no doubt but what the theatre managers will agree and this will probably net the association between $500 and $400
 The dormitory on the top floor of the Geders building last night was com paratively empty when visited by a re- porter. The few men found there said they did not know what had become of their companions of the past few weeks One said that the majority of them had left town.
 Fred w. Carter, the man in charge of the dormitory. said that by orders of the Associated Charities he had locked up all of the bedding which had been used in the big hall. Mr. Carter said that the door of the dormitory was locked Tuesday night and that very few of the A -R Atx get in.

in front of the city hall. If the city is too far in debt to justify the ex- penditure, some greenery could have been secured from the city's prop erty to the south of the city, where force of men is engaged in cutting wood. It would have cost practi- cally nothing and would have shown that the city administration was with the movement to make Fashion Week the banner week of the year.
 "The cooperation of tho hotels has been splendid. The clubs of the city have thrown wide their doors to the Misses Fashion, and every thing possible to make the event success has been done. The young ladies who have enacted the role of Miss Fashion have given of their time -unsparingly and have demon- strated their pride in their city by aiding in movement to bring moro trade to Birmingham and to estab- fish better feeling between this city and its thousands of friends throughout Alabama and the south. Fashion Week has been made suc- cessful becadse of the cooperation of all who had anything to do with 1t, anaeI feel sure I bespeak the sentiments of every other merchant when I say we are pleased-im- mensely pleased"
 F M. Drennen of Drennen com pany department stores expressed himself as delighted with the re- suits of Fashion Week.
 Yesterday Best of All
 "Of course, Monday was rather a bad day, because of the intensely disagreeable weather. but Tuesday was a great success, and today is even more successful" said MT. Drennen yesterday afternoon. 'One can't begin to realize the far-reach- ing effects of Fashion Week until 1t has past and letters from all over the state begin to arrive inquiring for goods the writers have seen while visiting the city during Fashion Week. Many women come into the store and look around, making notes of what they see, and go home and write for the article, enclosing check to cover it's price. Our business is good during Fash ion Week, and we are moro than pleased with it."
 Louis Saks of the Saks Clothing company said yesterday afternoon that he was greatly pleased with Fashion Week. We have had all the business we could attend to-" said Mir. Saks. Tt came not alone from the friends we have through

HEARINGS SATURDAY ON BLACK PETITIONS ASKING |NJUNCT|ONS
Judge Sharpe to Hear Del helm Case and Judge Miller the Delaye
 Case

Hearing on the petitions for temporary injunctions to restrain w. c. DeLaye and w. L.. Delheim from alleged vio- lation of the anti-liquor advertising law will be held Saturday morning in the city court. Judge H. A. Sharp will take up the Delheim case at 10 o'clock and Judge John H. Miller the DeLaye case at Il o'clock on the above date, and Clerk Sam Blake was instructed to serve notice of the hearing on both respondents.
 Neither judge was willing to grant the temporary injunction asked for until a hearing on the petition was had which was set as early as possible. Solicitor Hugo L. Black will represent the ntate at both hearings.
 The style of one case is the state of Ala bama ex rel Hugo L. Black vs. W. L. Dell helm. and was filed before Judge Sharpe. The petition alleges that in violation of the laws of the state the respondant is maintaining an advertisement on the blank wall of his place of business on North Twentieth street, which advertises the sale of liquor. The petitioner asks for temporary injunction to restrain the respondant from maintaining the said ad- rertise ment and prays that on final hear ing the injunction be made permanent.
 Tho other case is state of Alabama ex rel vs w. c. DeLaye. and was presented to Judge Miller. The petitioner alleged that the respondant contrary to the laws of the state is circulating, selling or ex- posing for sale newspapers containing liquor advertisements. Judge Miller has already ruled on a similar proposition in the case of Falkner vs. H. R. DeLaye, holding that it was no violation of the law to sell newspapers containing liquor advertisements up to July l, when the prohibition law goes into effect.
