ANOTHER NEW SHOP
 OPEN IN JONES BLOCK

One of the first of the new busi- ness houses to open up in the new Jones block is the Athens Hat Works lat East ashington street. The place is being elaborately equipped with high class furniture and fix
 lures for shoe-shining parlors, and special attention will be given to ladies work as well as mems. The place is owned by the Georgouses Brothers, who formerly operated the Mirror ladies and mems shoe shining parlors on North Central avenue next u Class Brothers Chop House which, with others of the Jones block, was destroyed by fire five months ago.
 The Athens Hat Works have in stalled modern and up-to- date ma chinery in charge of an expert for cleaning, bleaching and remodeling all kinds of hats, including felt and silk hats, as well as the Panama and the straw hats. Among the slogans of the Athens Hat Works is that every piece of work must be high grade and every hat is accompanied with an absolute guarantee.
 The business is well located, well equipped and in expert hands, and will doubtless prosper as has all the other enterprises of the GeOrgouses Brothers in Phoenix.

MUNSON MOVES INTO
 HIS NEW QUARTERS
Pioneer Optical Company Now Es- tablshed in Room in Rebuilt Jones
 Block East Washington St.

Another step in the rebuilding of
 the Jones block was accomplished when the Munson Optical company moved into it's new quarters at No. Is East Washington street.
 On the basis of never stand still this firm. like the others that have moved back into the fire swept dis trict, has greatly improved it's facili- ties. and is now better than ever before equipped to handle it's business. As a matter of fact convenience in location has added much to the Munson establishment, since it's last move. which was to 11S West Wash ingtOn street.
 Being pioneer optical firm, and having some equipment that is eX- elusive, in that it's like is not to be found between the coast and the middle east, Dr. Munsons shop is now entering upon another era of pros perity. The lens grinding machine which enables the firm to do work that cannot be done outside the bigger cities, is the only machine of it's kind in this part of the world. With other features. this makes it possible to do pretty nearly any sort of optical work, without the aid of mail orders.

WOODWARD MAKES STATEMENT
Explains Difficulty in Insurance Of
 fice-Denies Being AggressOr

'. W. Woodward last night made the following statement in regard to the diff culty in which he was involved Sunday:
 There seems to be a decided mlsappre- hension of the difficulty which occurred on the second floor of the First National bank building, in which J. R. Riley, John s. Denegre, l.. B. Morred and myself be- came involved In the first place, MT. Riley was not attacked, for he was the aggressor. While MT. Denegre and were having a warm discussion with MT. Riley over disputed sum of money which claimed to be due for expenses and salary, Riley suddenly struck one of us with his fist and next drew the heavy paperweight, struck me over the head, then as MT. Denecre tried to separate us he also re- ceived a blow from the same weapon. These blows were repeated several times. It was then that MT. Morred entered the room and compelled Riley to desist his attacks. MT. Riley, because of his weapon, had the advantage. and was making the most of it. Mir. Morred did not draw Fnite.'

This trouble burned and itched so that 1t would nearly drive one crazy. It was always worse at night, so we could not sleep.
 "We all had this trouble for about two or three years, and during that time tried many remedies and pre- scriptions with no results We tried Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap and it RELIEVED AT ONCE, and before the third jar of ointment had been used. we were all completely cured. It has been four months since we were cured, and there are no traces of the trouble - tSignedl Mrs. S. A. Clarkson, 1520 Lawn Ave- Oct.

At the Lyric

Good sized audiences were present yesterday at the initial performances of the three shows daily which the new anagement of the Lyric IS of- fering to the public at the popular playhouse The bill contains some acts that might be termed classy and. on the whole, is good As was predicted the jam" in the theatre lobby between the second and last performances was de- cidedly unpleasant and trying to the ladies, who were present in largo num- bers. Owing to the many exits, how ever the theatre was quickly emptied after the close of the first perform ance last night, and the patrons wait ing were soon seated.
 The bill was engaged for the Majestic and transferred in its entirety to the Lyric Taking the numbers as they appear on the stage, the bill proved ac ceptabIe. The opening number. Rice. Scully and Scott, triple horizontal bar and trampoline artists, was decided novel and entertaining. The acrcbatlc features are very clever and real com edy abounds throughout the act
 The Courtney sisters pleased the au- dience immensely, and made good from the start. The girls are favorltes in Birmingham and last night added to
 
 dies. old and new, they won the ap proval of the audience.
 "Our Husband,' billed as a comedy and portrayed by Miss Bertha Creigh ton and company, proved lacking as to comedy. The playlet was well acted. hut the continued repetition of max i'm made famous by David Harum years and years ago failed to raise the laughs intended.
 Kimberly and Mohr. in a singing novelty. were acceptable. several of the song numbers offered having the added charm of originality. The six Kirksmith sisters, in a mu- sical interlude. were excellent. both in vocal and instrumental numbers The stage setting was particularly eff fective and in thorough keeping with the act Possibly the best number was a soprano solo ~by Miss Helen kirk smith. The act is high class through out.
 Motion pictures opened and closed the bill c. H. M.

What Association Is Doing

''The most understandable explanation of the inadequate support of so wonderful an institution Is to be laid to the general ignorance of the existence, object, and results of the organization itself Probably to no more than one citizen in 100 is the Associated Charities any more than a l,ame. They don't know where they are what they are doing, or that they need constant public support. A 15-minute visit to their building at 2212 First avenue would convince the most skeptical of the real worth and provide this relief. Some body has got to do it. We all know how hard present conditions are even with those fortunate enough to have jobs and incomes What provision is going to be made for those who have neither? Let tte generous and luckier citizens of Bir- nIngham chip in and keep this organiza- tion on its feet. But, as the sign reads that hangs in your office, Do It Now for otherwise they will not last out this week.

Young American Baritone Greatly Pleases Large Audience at
 Cable Hall

Cecil Tanning, the young American baritone, was greeted most cordially by a large and discriminating audience at the auspices of the Music Study club and of the many excellent artists which this organization has presented this season none has given greater delight than he This was his programme:
 Der Wanderer'' (Schubert); "Wohin ?'' (Schubert); "Du Dist die Ruh." tSchu- bert) "Auftraege'' (Schumann); "Teufel- slied' OHaile).

 MT. Tanning has rich. sympathetic voice of large range and distinct color, and his style is wonderfully versatile. He is at once a convincing interpreter of lyric and dramatic song literature and of the quaint folk song as we'll He is especially happy in declamatory effects
 His Schubert songs were of moving ap- peal, but it was in Loewe's musical set ting that MT. Tanning revealed perhaps his finest artistry and brought into play his broadest intellectual faculty. Loewe was a contemporary of Schubert and was a philosopher and a distinguished man of letters as we'll as composer
 Mir. Tanning had been requested to sing Schuberts "Erl King,' but gave in- stead Loewe's, rightly supposing as he did that it would be new to most per sons in the audience. Schubert's is more melodious, but Loewe's more dramatic It was rapturously received.
