 PLANS COMPLETED
 Preparations have almost been com pleted for the fireworks displays which are to take place at East Lake park Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week in honor of the Confed- crate Veterans who are with us for the reunion and every possible effort is being put fcsth to make the displays the most gorgeous that have ever been witnessed by a Birmingham audience.
 All of the week Confederate Veter- ans will be admitted to the park free of charfe. an. the management of East Lake park has assured them that every possible ou.tesy and consideration will be extended to them from the moment that they enter the gates of the park. There are to be many spe- cial private parties every night next week given by various members of the smart set of Birmingham, and many of our most prominent people will be present on these occasions.
 In addition to the special attractions of the fireworks displays next week. there will be band concerts, dancing in the beautiful open air pagoda, roller skating, boating, bathing, and beautiful stro1ls through the winding paths lighted by countless numbers of twink ling Mazda lights. There will un- doubtedly be the biggest crowds ever at the park this week. and the park management expects to exceed the rec
  already established during the first week of the opening.
 Gen. Louis V. Clark was certainly right in the remarks which he made a few days ago upon his visit to the park, when he said that it was indeed the ideal place to spend pleasant, quiet summer evening. It is the beauty spot of Birmingham, and in It's trans formed condition under the new and efficient management 1t is simply ire sistible. It will be rare asset to the city. and one which we have long needed.
