ENJOYABLE BANQUET HELD
 BY THE BOYS AND GIRLS OF
 THE TEEN-AGE CONFERENCE
Cheer Leaders Vie With Each Other in Raising the Roof Striking Tribute Paid to Mrs. Ken nedy-Conference to Close Tonight at First Baptist Church

At one of the most largely attended banquets ever held in Birmingham, the second days session of the Older Boys and Older Girls conferences came to a close last night in a blaze of glory. The dinner was held in the Manufacturers Permanent Exhibit hall and two toast masters were required to keep both ends of the ball advised of what was going on. James Childers served on one side and Miss Jessica Ingram on the other.
 A series of cheer leaders operated in different parts of the hall simultaneously, producing weird effects in the diversity of their yells. One section of the hall would be strenuously busy on series of incantations of "Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah, = while another part of the room would be engaged in an earnest attempt to raise the roof with their voices. The cheering factions finally were grouped under one
 leader, whose stentorian tones pene- trated the farthermost recesses of the room, and who led the entire $50 ban queters in rousing cheer for the Teen Age Girls, which was followed by 1o cheers and a tiger for the Teen Age Boys, following which that part of the gathering which did not have sore throats fell upon the food,
 pr. J. w. Johnson, pastor of the First Methodist church, asked divine blessing upon the gathering. The speaking pro gramme was started off by Elmer liar per, who proposed toast to Girls 7 This was followed by many other toasts, among which Mary Malone proposed a toast to Boys" every girl in the room joining her in the sentiments expressed. Joe Burnett proposed a toast to Mothers, which was received with a

 The lunches will be free to the vet erans and the expenses will be borne by the Masons. It is expected that this will prove a great help to the old sol diers, many of whom will come in from the fairgrounds during the day and will not care to make the trip back out there for their luncheon.

 Colonel Denisons' presence at the re- union is a story in itself that should Iarrest and hold the interest of every Isoutherner
 While the war was being waged Col
 nel Denison lived in Canada, where he had military training as soldier the service of the crown. So deeply was he impressed by the undauated ,--9age and the honorable and aristo- A , .c manner of the so-called rebels. that his admiration knew no bounds land for this reason he freely gave his sympathies to the Confederate cause. He improved every opportunity to Iprotect Confederate soldiers in Can ad and prominent among these were General Young himself, who was one of Morgan's men and Gen. John B. Cas- .tcnan. But even more important than hese was Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, whose hand was clasped first by Col mel Denisbn when he crossed the anadian border soon after his release rom Fortress Monroe.

 POLIFIC AUTHOR
 Colonel Denison has been prolific author r'@s:de his greatest work eli tiled "M 'iern Cavalry he has pub ) shed two other most interesting vol
 mes. "The Struggle for Imperial Jnity," and "Soldiering in Canada" All hese have had wide circulation and have given Colonel Denison fame not nly in Canada but in England and on he continent.

 In his book on cavalry he paid a plendid tribute to the record and chievement of the cavalry of the Con- federate states.

Her hat was tailored affair of black straw with a white tailored bow of grosgrain ribbon echoing the white machine silk stitching which trimmed her coat and skirt. Her boots were black and gray glazed kid in buttoned style. The effective note in this quiet costume was a gold lorgnette swinging on a black and white ribbon. It lent distinction to the whole ensemble. Her gloves-as an afterthought. were of black kid with white stitching.
 The Vogue Of Cameos.
 Canoes are again very fashionable and many handsome old ornaments are being remounted with modern set tings. Cameos look best with dainty dIteTHOOH lTOCkS, ana are dt tHelT loveliest with rich faces. They may be worn. when correctly mounted, with street costumes. or with evening gowns; but their proper place is with the handsome afternoon gown or blouse. Pink cameos are most beau tiful, but white cameos on coral. onyx or shell backgrounds are very smart. Brooches e cameo set in medallion effect are surrounded with narrow oval or eight-sided frames of twisted gold and seed pearls. Cameo buttons, similarly mounted are used on very exclusive frocks where expense is not counted.

 The one-Diece bathing suit is omni- present. A year ago it was just be- ginning to appear but so easy to slip on and off, it is and so comfortable with no tight waistband to draw LID when the arms toss about in the water that 1t is being universally adopted. It may be as modest as one pleases: or as outrageous. In the latter class, It IS cut like scant chemise, with shouloerstraps to hold it up at the top; and its lower edge falls only a little way below the hips, over silk bathing tights. Not very much is left to the imagination with such a cos- tune, especially when it is of silk and mas Just come out of the water A more modest style, in black salt water satin, is cut kimono fashion and with box pleats over the shoulders to add sufficient fullness across the bust. The little sleeves cover the top of the arm ana the neck is cut out in a shallow square, or is rounded, as one prefers. The hem falls we'll over the edge of full bloomers or bathing tights and comes to the turn of the knee, and a wide, soft sash of satin or rubber, is knotted loosely around the waistline, giving trim silhouette. Very gay sashes of Roman striped silk, with caps to match, make these one piece bathing suits of black or navy satin very charming. There are also sashes and caps of bright colored rubber; and the wide sash may be taken off and laid across the shoulders like scarf, during the sun-bath on the sand. A slip-on model of navy blue mohair has short, kimono sleeves and a narrow belt which buttons loosely over the loose, one-piece garment. The neck Is finished with shaped cir-

The in- scription is engraved on the fiat inner side of one of these sections and is known only to the bride and the groom-and to the intimate friends to whom the cherished secret is inn parted. A stranger. examining the ring would never guess that 1t was not an ordinary "one-piece" wedding ring and in a whole lifetime, if the bride chooses, no one will ever know what tender sentiment the groom has had engraved within the twin sec tions of her wedding circlet
 There is a new engagement ring also, with "amor''--and every girl who has studied Latin at finishing school knows what that means-en- graved inside. The setting is massive with interlocked hearts in openwork effect on four sides of pediment sup porting the large solitaire.

 Pearls Always In Favor.
 The woman who possesses string of genuine pearls need envy nobody. Her Jewels are beyond compare. Not even diamonds have the distinction of handsome pearls and long string of genuine pearls is worth kings ran- som. One may pay S50.0o0 for a string just long enough to go around the throat; it may be imagined then what double loop to hang to the wa,stline would cost. Yet several so- ciety women in New York have such pearls and wear them at the opera in

when the suit gets wet. A matter of poetic license, no doubt Is the cape- lining of brilliant blue silk-there is no record of Hamlet's descending to such frivolity in his somber attire. The sleeves have also cuffs of the blue silk and the cap is of blue rub Der with rubber tassels in blue and white. The cape Is supposed to be removed for swimlhing-of course it would float out behind its wearer and perhaps prove a serious incumbrance in floating or swimming on the back. On shore, 1t is drawn around the shoulders, protecting neck and arms from sunburn.
 The square-brimmed beach hat is also intended for nd-bathing;A an enthusiastic swimmer would have none of it. It might be worn by a paddler, however. or by a woman who goes into the surf up to her chin and contents herself with Jumping over the waves. It is made of rubberized satin. with a wire at the edge of the brim. and is a comfortable, shady and becoming head covering withal, though it cannot be said to keep the hair dry. For the latter purpose nothing has yet been discovered to equal the tight rubber diving cap which may be drawn completely down over hair and ears. These caps come now in brights colored rubber. red. blue. green and orange. The hair must be taken down and pinned flat ly in a coil on top of the head with blunt, shell pins, for sharp wire hair pins thrust themselves through the tight rubber cap In no time.
