 "The vestry of the St. Johns Episcopal church in an open letter to the citizens of Ensley. Fairfield, Wylam and Pratt City.
 Greetings: The vestry of the St. Johns Episcopal church at their regular meeting Monday night, October Il, heard with pleasure the outline of the plan or the rector by which he proposes to remodel and equip the old church building on sixteenth street, between Avenues E and F. for general hospital for Ensley. The plan was thoroughly discussed, and upon motion to that effect the vestry went upon record as heartily indorsing the plan.

ADJUSTMENTS
"September Morn,


 The tired business man was 1ibara1,v catered to at the Jefferson theatre la night when September Morn.o a bright, rollicking girl show. with plenty of tuneful music. helped to while away two hours or more quite pleasantly. The name of the piece nat urally arrests attention and creates a. more or less expectant mood The girl or the famous picture, or the famous picture Of the girl-whichever you pre- fer-was sufficiently exploited and there was even a realistic pose of the hesltant maid toward the last of the show.
 E. The book is along the conventional musical comedy lines, neither very or ,sinai nor very funny, yet sufficient " entertaining and helped considerably py the efforts of some talented mem bers of the cast, among them Carl George, quaint comedian of the Ger man type. who had fine flow of ani- nal spirits and when the lines failed him made up for such deficiencies by prodigious capering.
 Court Vance as Teddy Van Dyke sang and danced extremely we'll besides playing a Juvenile part acceptably. John Patton. as an easy-going, self contained press agent, with the usual sophistication of such characters. was an excellent foil to Mir George. 10 Taylor, a singer and dancer of marked talent played Argentina, the tango dancer, with much spirit and magne- tism. Vera La We're, a stunning blonde beauty, was quite an interesting stage daughter" and Mabel Faffin strik- ing brunette, afforded pleasing con- trast to her in the part of Mrs. storm Nearly all the principals acquitted themselves well and the cast was con- sidcraby above the average of road shows.
 The dance numbers were among the most pleasing features, but the sing ing, both of chorus and principals, de- serves to be commended. There is a great deal of pretty music in the piece, more or less reminiscent, it is true, but quite pleasing to the ear. Among the song hits are September Morn" "The Sunshade Girl" a real novelty; Beau tiful Dreams I'm Dreaming" "A Spare rib From the Butcher Shop of Life" and Where Is the Pleasure in Wine and Song. If the Woman Is Not There?'

TURKS TRAINING FOR
 EGYPTIAN INVASION
A. p. A. Service.

ATHENS, Oct 14-Private advices from Turkish sources received here from Constantinople state that Turkey is preparing for a great invasion of the British Egyptian territory and large army is in training for that specific purpose. It Is said that over sixty thousand men have been newly recruited and are now undergoing training under the direction of German military officers.
 Brief accounts of fighting on the Gallipoli peninsula are drifting in occa- sionally but nothing of a definite na~ ture has become known owing to the rigorous censorship now being main tained. About all that Is known is that fighting is in progress but the results are shrouded In mystery.

 A total of forty-three persons were struck by the bombs thrown from the Zeppelius and nine of the number were killed. Two of the victims were women and the remainder of the dead included one soldier Of the thirty four injured but one or two are In a serious condi- ton. The property damage was also light and few buildings of importance were struck The raid lasted for up- ward of an hour before the Germans were finally located and driven away by the aero corps.
