about keeping their feet warm, all though the appearance they present is neither stylish nor graceful.
 From the rather brief accounts given us of the Russian soldiers, it can be seen that they are remarkably well fitted for grueling warfare. The Germans, despite their admirable pro- ficiency, have found in the Russians sturdy foes who have a natural ad- vantage over the less hardy Teutons and so long as the fighting is confined to Russian territory, and while cold weather prevails, the odds are all in favor of the Russians.
 We don't hear much these days about Cossacks. That may be due to the fact that the Cossack style of fighting has been supplanted by trench warfare and artillery duels, in which they have no chance to show their prowess

that demand was emphasized anew yesterday when announcement was made that the Bijou had been sold out for the children's symphony matinee, and that requests for seats for school children were still pouring in.
 It is believed that a thousand or more young people. eager to hear the orchestra at the Wednesday afternoon performance, will be deprived of the pleasure because of lack of seating space. And it is doubtful whether the Bijou will hold all the people who ap- ply for admission to the opera mat inee, or for the evening performances of either opera or symphony orchestra. The disappointment that comes to the children who were too late in applying for tickets will be distressing indeed, but it cannot be helped.
 Birmingham will have an adequate convention hall or auditorium some day. The hope is. that it will be in the not distant future.

HOW TO READ THE CLASSICS

T ioAi tHC NSW itepuDllC.
 Instead of spending much time learn ing Latin and Greek syntax, college stu dents should spend the same time read Ing good translations. Classical under graduates at present are reading a little Greek and Latin in bad translations Fhe new compromise lets them read 20 times as much in good translations. It relegates to the high school the task of teaching the student his grammar and to the graduate school the task of teaching him classical philology. The high school can give him enough Latin to take him through the Aeneid and year or two of Greek This preliminary training is de- sirable for it's influence on the student s English, and for the opportunity it af- lords him of carrying his studies further if he seeks subtler beauties than good translations hold.
 Instead of asking the undergraduate to pretend that 30-ines-a-day progress through the Odyssey is anything else than tedious, it offers him dozen Eng fish translations of Homer to read and compare and enjoy. It lets him taste the
 tessara a-decasyllahons of Chapman and the ballad measures of Maginn. It lets him see how the author of the Essay on Man. the author of The Task. the author of "rhe Earthly Paradise" and the author of The Way of All Flest' reacted to Homer It gives him the blbil- cal prose of Butcher and Lang and the
 saucy prose of Samuel Butler"

FASHION AND FOLLY

In this case we are asked to follow the
 fortunes of waif from Waco, who in
 succession served as newsboy, tavern
 clerk, floor walker and chorus singer;
 who, before he was five and twenty. had married wealthy old Yankee widow;
 who thus snatched from the attic and street, was enabled to set up for swell; who. changing the homely name of Jack Thompson for the high sounding one Of Harold St. Cyr, played the part to the queens taste, as the saying hath it, and
 who, by the timely death of his aged
 wife, turned about with the celerity of a
 Richard the Third and wooed the Lady
 Ann of the Pageant; the haughtiest, most
 purse-p proud and hardest-to-catch of all
 the professional, albeit be,ated beauties,
 in the League of the Marble Hearts, do-
 ing business, since Europe is temporarily
 closed for repairs now at Bar Harbor and
 now at Palm Beach, but dedicate ever
 and everywhere to the meretricious and
 the unreal
 r To carry off career and two widows
 in such a world of fashion and fraud,
 surely betokens imagination and darins'
 head to plan, and nerve to acheVe
 Yet in Waco they called him Sissy, ana
 even in the Beach club of Palm Beach
 we are told he seemed effeminate anu fantastic, not credited beyond his cash in-hand, nor likely to dupe keen- sighted, worldly wise woman. who had come to her money through the divorcing of A good husband to mate with credu- lous but happily short-lived billionaire The space writers call her the mother in-law of the heir to a throne Therepy hangs another tale. She had daughter by her first husband. The boob with the long purse and the short life, it is said, gave this daughter a cool million to back her mother in her divorce proceeding and, after sis death, the mother and daughter went abroad where the daughter, with her big dot, hooked the illegitimate scion of a royal line and there were high links, to the very great amusement Of the American colony, who knew that the "Prince' was an impecunious loafer, With DO more pretension to crown than stump-tail hound dog to a velvet nal band!
 It is a queer world, isn't it? And great is Diana of the Ephesians: albeit Gag liostro was no slouch; and maybe, as Satan's fleet of Hell-craft, beating up from the vasty deeps to submarine the floors of heaven, sails over the east coast of Florida, the Earl of Dddleset, looking 1 down upon Palm Beach, may say to the erstwhile wife of Rawden Crawley, Al , though you and I.

the privilege of attending innocent en- tertainments on Sunday afternoons, moving picture shows. And many men and women enjoy the Sun day concerts-all too few. Such peo- pie have no religious scruples when they take their Sunday recreation by attending wholesome and often educa- tional photoplays or listening to spiritually elevating music.
 Now those aggressive souls who have scruples and who are more or less dominated by pride of opinion those who contend for an "austere Sabbath" such as the old Puritans knew-should be satisfied with keep ing the Lords day according to the dictates of their conscience and leave their neighbors to exercise free dom of action not in conflict with good order. It does not seem fair, at any rate, for any set of men to try by leg islation to force upon others their way of thinking.
 Liberal laws that make for peace and content are what the majority of our citizens demand.
 The proposed ordinance prohibiting Sunday movies and Sunday concerts, where there is an admission charge, now before the city commission for action, should never become law. Other cities noted for public decorum have Sunday movies; why try to close the photoplay houses here?
 As for concerts of high order, they would be prohibited, if that ordi- nance were to be enacted, just at a 1 time when there is a growing interest in music and artistic merit and when leaders in civic and educational work are considering ways and means whereby Birmingham might have or
 chestral or band concerts on Sunday
 afternoons at popular prices. If To-
 cal musicians are to be employed theil
 services are available only on Sunday
 Let's have no "blue laws" but am.
 pie diversion on Sundays for those
 who feel the need of refining enter tainment.

As to Sunday Observance

Sunday, as a day of rest, is all well observed in Birmingham as it is in most of the large cities. It is ob- served, too, by large proportion of the population as day of worship.
 Birmingham is distinctly a church. going city and it is safe to assume that Sunday school activities here reach out further and come in contact with social life at more angles than is the case in the average orderly com munity.
 But thousands of people here, ire spective of their church connections, or their religious sympathies, desire

The Russians Dry Feet

Dr. Eugene Hurd of Seattle, who has done remarkable work as sur- geon- with the Russian troops, says the Russian soldier is the best in the world. He is not only fatalist and without fear, but is able to stand grea hardships and is expert in using the bayonet.
 However, one of the most interest ing observations made by Dr. Hurd is that frozen feet among the German prisoners are common enough, but he has yet to treat his first Russian suf- fering from that complaint.
