A Run on Raspberries.

RASPBERRY BAVARIAN CREAM.
IN Put a quarter of a package of
gelatin into half a cupful of rasp-
berry juice and let it lie until it has
softened. Then dissolve and add the
Juice of half a lemon, half a cupful Of
granulated sugar and a cupful of rasp-
berry juice. Put this mixture in a bowl
and put the bowl in ice water. While
In this condition stir until they begin
to set, then fold in a cupful and a
half Of rich cream that has been beaten
until very stiff. Place in a mold and
chill. Serve with whipped cream.
Raspberry Blanc Mange.-Soak one
half a box of gelatin In one quart of
milk for an hour. Place it on the fire
and stir often. Beat the yolk of an
egg light with a cupful of sugar, stir
into the scalding milk and heat until
it begins to thicken, but do not allow
1t to boil, for this will make it curdle.
Remove it from the fire, and when 1t
is nearly cold stir in some stewed red
raspberries without the juice; then
pour into moldS wet in cold water and
set away to cool. Serve with cream
and sugar and lady fingers.

cupful of powdered sugar and one and
one-half cupful of crushed raspberries
to three cupfuls of cream whipped stiff.
Mix carefully and pour into a mold.
Cover and bind the seam with a strip
of muslin or cheesecloth which has
been dipped into melted fat or paraf1n.
Pack in a tub of crushed ice and salt,
allowing about a cupful of salt to every
three cupfuls of ice and let stand for
about three hours. When properly
frozen this should be solid on the out
side, but creamy in the center.
Raspberry Jelly.-Press a banana
through a sieve, add the juice of a
lemon, one-half cupful of sugar and
the white of n egg well beaten. Mix
all together until very light and set In
a cool place. Dissolve one package of
raspberry gelatin in boiling water and
mold in a fat pan. Cut into cubes
and serve in individual glasses with
TIE banana mixture as a substitute for
whipped cream. This will serve six
persons.

WE SHOULD CONSIDER
WHAT is RIGHT
THEN DO 1T

sour Government is based on
the idea that we have Legisla-
lures to investigate, to consider
what is right and to do what
is right. 1t is based on the idea
that public opinion is formed
from discussion of questions,
and that we can come possibly
to right solutions. 1t is not
based on the idea that the Gov
eminent must act without know
ing the justice and merits of the
cause in which it acts."-Mr.
Hughes in His Speech at Port
land, Maine.

DEMAND WAS NOT FOR
EIGHT-HOUR DAY,

at is said that the Judgment
Of society has made the demand
for the eight-hour day. This was
not an eight-hour day, and the
Judgment of society had nothing
to do with the proposition laid
before Congress and passed by
Congress. The proof of this Is
found in the bill itself, which
proposes an investigation to find
out whether Congress had any
business to do the thing which
it was asked to do, and which
it did do."-Mr. Hughes in His
Speech at Portland, Maine.

SURRENDER TO FORCE
WOULD TEND TO
DISASTER.

"That kind of virus In our
Ilfe-surrender to force-Would
bring US no end Of disaster. If
we let capitalists oil working
men, any interest, learn that the
way to get what Is wanted Is by
applying pressure and If we con-
tinue In that course for a few
years, democracy will be a fail
ure, and we might as we'll give
up our form of government."-

PUBLIC OFFICER SHOULD
STAND LIKE A ROCK

Government under pressure
Is not American Government.
Whenever pressure Is applied to
any public officer he ought to
stand like a rock and say: Here
| stand until we substitute rea-
son for force. 1t is not an
American doctrine to legisIate
first and investigate afterward.'"

The First Night in the Grave.

Il often stand beside the grave
When | have lost friend,
And think of Gods own plan to save

When the grave receives the dead

1t Is sad to see them co.
We sweetly think of the pleasan
past,
Because we love them so.
The sun goes down in the far-of
west,
And we retire to bed.
Hoping they have gone to rest,
AS we think of the loved ones dead

POLICE WILL CALL
 ONMERCHANTS WHO
 STILL OWE LICENSE
Orders Are Issued to Place All Delinquents in the City Under Arrest
 at Once

Have you paid your city license?
 If you haven't and a big police offi- cer places you under bond tomorrow morning the city commission announces that it will be quite out of sympathy with your plight. In fact, the edict ot the commission is pay up or be lacked up'' before the recorders court.
 Commissioner George B. Ward states that all city licenses are due on January 1, but that on April ] a penalty is in flicted for the nonpaymant of the mer- chants licenses. Now it is past June l. and there are still scores of licenses left unpaid so the city commission assumes that the delinquents are either ducking purposely or else are willing to stand the penalty as announced over two months ago.
 letter was sent to Commissioner Bar Der yesterday giving him instructions to inform the police officers to visit every place of business on their respective beats and inquire for the 1916 license cer- tificate. If the merchant is unable to produce the license the police are in structed to place him under bond
 It is explained at the city hall that such rigorous measures are taken to pro- tect the merchants who pay their licenses when due the first of the year It is planned that no one shall do business in Birmingham and escape contributing the payment of license to the civic treas

CITY PLANS ID HOLD TIGHT ID S30,000 IN NINSPECT|ONF FEES Has No Intention of Making
 Effort to Get Money
 Back to Donors

Regarding the refunding of liquor inspection fees, the city commission is adamant in its refusal even 10 con slider the suggestion as put forward by suit filed by local attorney sev- eral days ago. Thirty thousand dollars is involved and the city commission as a whole is inclined to the notion that this sum is needed by the depleted city treasury.
 The city commission is earnest in the belief that while the liqror in spection law was in effect and lad not been declared unconstitutional by the state supreme cdurt. it was I legal ordinance under which all fees col lected naturally belonged to the city. Now that the liquor inspection law has been declared unconstitutional the city commission points out the col lecting of fees has been stopped, but that as the supreme court did not specify that the fees should be returned the city os Birmingham has ample right to retain them.
 It is further pointed out that to re fund the S30,000 in liquor inspection fees would be an impossible task as many of the receipts are made out in false names and false addresses and the refunding could not proceed with out great expense to the city.
 But the city commission is not con- templating the expenses of refunding the $30.000 collected in liquor inspec- tion fees or even the matter of re- funding at all. Tn fact it can well be stated that in so far as the city com mission is concerned the subject of re- funding the liquor inspection fees is as dead as Electors pup

Ut would be difficult to estimate the benefits the city of Birmingham has de-
 rived from the reunion. On the first analysis, we could figure the financial gain by estimating the average amount of money spent by each of the 10000 visi- tors However, this sum falls into in significance when you consider the ulti-
 mate good resulting from the unanimity of purpose and action, in the most ex- celent good order that prevailed. and
 finally in the magnificent cooperation shown by the citizens of this commun- ity Birmingham has demonstrated that she can care for any convention. and when her citizens are called upon they rise to the full measure of their patriot ism and devotion to the wonderful city in which they live.

COMMENCEMENTAT
 SOUTHERN SCHOOL
 OF MUSICAL ART
Seven Programmes Are Ar ranged by the Various Departments for the
 Coming Week

The coming week will be musical one for Birmingham. Seven programmes have been prepared by the various de- partments of the Southern School of Mu- sical art which is closing very suc- cessful year, the enrolment of students reaching the 200 mark.
 This institution was incorporated De- cember 1, 1914, under the laws of Ala bama. The basic idea in the mind of it's founder, Henry Key Miner, was the establishment of a school of the highest possible standard, with exacting curric- uum, and artist teachers, whose high ideals would give to pupils an opportu- nifty of studying music in the south with all the advantages heretofore to be had only in the larger northern cities or abroad.
 It was not the purpose of the founder to gather together a large faculty imme- diately, but rather to secure those art
 sts who had firmly established them selves both in this country and abroad as musicians of unquestioned worth and ability, each one chosen with careful re- gard always looking to the ultimate mu- steamship to be developed in the pupil
 That there is great advantage in in- stitutional over private instructions was regarded as manifest. Students are re- quired to attend lessons regularly; teach
 CTS have no business matters to occupy
 their time and can concentrate their full
 attendtion and entire energy on the mu-
 sical education of their pupils. Jn school of musical learning. properly Non-
 ducted, the student is afforded every in- ducement which private instruction can possibly offer with innumerable impor-
 tant advantages in addition. In a school
 will be found a great number of stu dents industriously and earnestly work
 ing intent upon attaining the highest
 proficiency in their chosen branches of
 study. The exchange of ideas, the many lectures, concerts. recitals, etc., and all those things which go to create a mu- sical atmosphere, are invaluable to the pupil Only in a school. 1t is contended, can proper attention be given to such branches of study as harmony, compo- siton, science of music, history of mu- sic and kindred subjects which are es- sential to thorough musical training. These facts apply as much to pupils who desire knowledge of any branch or branches of music merely as an ac- complishment. as to those who will make music a profession. To the latter, the opportunity offered in the school for public appearance is an important con sideration.
 The enrolment of out-of-town students
 has been unusually large and pupils from Piper, Mobile Sylacauga, Vinemont, Jas per and Vincent, Ala; Mystic. Ia- Tampa, Fla; Natalbany, La, were reg stered during the past season.
 Following the week of concerts, which
 will take place at Cable Hall every night beginning with tomorrow, there will be on Monday, June 19 a commencement night. pr. Henry M. Edmonds will give the invocation. Prof. c. B. Glenn will de- liver the address and President H. K NIilner will present the diplomas and cer- tificates.
