Have we any war bridesY' Well, thls isn't a question-and answers department, but there are plenty of subterranean eX- plosions and other warlike noises golns on all the, time. And, come to think of it, our daily casualty list wouldn't stack up so bad alongside of those from the battlefields.
 Here are few headlines from New York paper, all published on the same day and page:
 Boy, Playing Tag, Injured by Auto" |" Boy Hurt by Auto, Chasing Com panions,' Woman, Driving Auto, Runs Over Child" '.Woman Thrown Down and Hurt by Auto'' Auto Fells Lad at Busy Street Crossing
 Every night at 9:3O o'clock taps" is sounded at the Jumel Mansion, One Hun dred and Sixtieth street and Edgecomb avenue. This is self-imposed duty per formed by an old resident of that sec- tion one Louis C. Wesemann. It was done during the revolutionary war, there fore, MT. Wesemann argues, it should be kept up. And so, the people of that section have still more war atmosphere.
 Are you keeping in touch with the "doings" of the Alabama society" in New York? No? Too bad. it is one of the most thoroughly inactive here. How ever, many dangers beset the state socie- ties here There are several of them rep- resenting southern commonwealths, many members of which, it is said, have never been further south than the Bowling Green subway station.

DATE OF FLAG DAY SET BY COMMITTEE Confederate Flags to Be Substituted for Buttons CIVIC BODIES TO AID Fund to Be Used Exclusively for the Entertainment of Confederate
 Veterans

At joint conference yesterday morning between the United Daughters of the Confederacy and members of the reunion executive committee it was decided to have a Flag Day, May 6, at which time offered for sale downtown to assist in the reunion fund for the entertainment of the Confederate veterans in Birmingham, May 16, F and IS. The decision to substitute flags for the official button was reached after it was finally learned that the com pany making the buttons would be un- able to get the buttons here in time for the proposed Button Day. The buttons will be disposed of other than by the plans first considered. The women repre- senting the United Daughters of the Con federecy, at the meeting yesterday, were Mrs. Chappell Corey, Mrs. John B. Reid, and Mrs. Charles G. Brown. They prom ised the committee that they would or ganize the Flay Day forces as quickly as possible, and would exert every in- fluence to make the affair a complete success. The affair will have the official sanction of the entire reunion force, con- posed of the leading men in Birmingham, who are devoting so much time to the work of the reunion.
 Morris W. Bush and George A. Blinn, accompanied by Sol Caheen, will call upon Commissioner John R. Hornady in charge of the schools. and Dr. J. H. Phillips, superintendent of schools, and request that every student in every school of the city buy one flag at small price. In this way it is hoped to sell flag to every man, woman and child in the Bir- mingham district, and through that means get everyone interested personally in the success of the reunion. By the small purchase one will have the satis- faction of knowing that the sum was contributed to the entertainment of the veterans and to that extent the wearer of he flag will be an official host.
 The finance committee and the ladies will request that every person who buys a flag wear the Confederate emblem dur ing the reunion. In this way, visitors will come to know that the wearer of the and can be relied upon to give informa- ton about the city. This will enable every one that buys flag to be in a position to assist in caring for the multi tudes of visitors that are expected for sthe reunion. It is stated that Mrs. Reid, Mrs. Corey and Mrs. Brown assured the committee that at least 5000 would be secured by the sale of the flags. There will be assignments for every prominent corner in Birmingham, as well as com mittee for all of the prominent office buildings. The Rotary club, the Busi- ness Mems league and officers of the Chamber of Commerce will render every possible assistance to the women in their efforts to raise the sum they have started out to secure
 Inasmuch as the fund will be used ex- clusively for the necessities incident to the veterans convention, it is believed that very little trouble will be experi- enced in getting the amount agreed upon. The Flag Day will be the official affair from the Chamber of Commerce.

 A welcome change from the usual blood and thunder drama is af- forded patrons of the Rialto today, when "Artie, the Millionaire Kid" will be flashed across the screen. It is a fantastic Vitagraph feature in five parts, and Ernest Truax enacts the role of the millionaire kid. Dorothy Kelly is a wonderful foil, and the play should take well.

CAMILLE"
 Clara Kimball Young will be feat ured in a wonderful picturization of Camille" at the Trianon Saturday and Sunday. Miss Young is noted among the favorites of Birmingham, and her appearance as Camille" is sufficient of itself to assure the plays success here. Everyone knows the story of Camille, of course, but in it's picturized version it is even more attractive. There are many spectac- uiar and emotional scenes, but per- haps the most exciting is the duel between the two lovers.
