GENEROUS RESPONSE TO APPEAL FOR FUNDS FOR
 COMMUNITY SINGING
Director Lawrence Makes Good Start at Concert Yesterday Loews Bijou and Campaign Will Be Carried on Until
 Necessary Amount for 30 Concerts Is Raised

Robert Lawrence, director of the con- munity singing, started his campaign yesterday afternoon at the Bijou to raise a fund to finance the Philharmonic or chestra. Philip Memoli, conductor, dur ing the 30 Sundays for which the theatre has been rented and paid for by the city.
 The orchestra Is accepted as a great feature of the community music. It plays only standard compositions, and every number performed is applauded heartily. This body of local musicians is consid- cred by MT. Lawrence and members Of the community committee not only a distinct factor in educating the public to a finer appreciation of the best in mu- sical art, but a great civic asset for Bir- mingham, for 1t is pointed out that at the rate the Philharmonic has progressed in a few short weeks, 1t will not be a great while before it ranks with the symphony orchestras of large cities in the north
 Many of those who go to make up the great assemblage that crowds the Bijou every Sunday brought cash con- tributions in small denominations and handed them to the committee sta- toned in the vestibule of the theatre; ; and in the aggregate it made goodly sum. But Mr. Lawrence during inter-

PASTORS DISMISS CONGREGATIONS ON
 ACCOUNT OF FIRE
Dwelling Houses Burn at WoOdlawn. Fire Commenced at Church Time and Pastors Dispense
 With Services

Woodlawn citizens were turned out oi their respective churches yesterday after they had settled down for the morning worship in order that they might lend a hand in extinguishing the flames that sought to destroy residential property ir the heart of that portion of the city The fire started in residence at Ill North Sixtieth street. Damage estimated at $15Oo.
 It took the East Lake and Woodlawr fire departments practically an hour oi hard fighting to extinguish the flames and it seemed for a time that the home of MT. Kennedy and the one adjoinins it would go, these two houses being ad- jacent to~the one on fire. The alarm was given about Il o'clock or soon thereafter
 The pastors of each church in the vicin- ity of the fire realized the folly of at tempting to hold services while the fire was raging, and very promptly dismissed their congregations in order that they might participate in the fire fighting. il necessary.

FINE PROGRAMME AT COMMUNITY 4S|NG''

A programme of variety and artistic excellence was presented at the coni- munity "sing" at the Bijou yesterday was in his usual good form and the orchestra, under the baton of Philip Memoli, acquitted itself with high credit.
 Besides the overture the orchestra was heard in the first movement of Schubert's Unfinished" symphony, Rubenstein's Romance" and the scc- ond, third and fourth movements of Lingine's Ballet Egyptian" That lovely classic. the Schubert number, with it's oft recurring melody for the solo cello, and its grace and appeal was admirably rendered as were also the beautiful numbers that followed. The ballet suit made great hit.
 The soloist of the occasion was X. Pauli. cellist. He was on the pro- gramme for Goldmann's concerto, but owing to the limited time for rehearsal with the orchestra he substituted two short pieces, Joclyrs "Berceuse" and Schumann's "rraumerei." accompanied by MT. Weigand on the piano. MT. Pauli has refined tone and his play ing was marked by finish and solid musicianship. He was enthusiastically received.
 The community numbers were all enjoyable and especially interesting was MT. Lawrence's lesson on "A Per. feet Day" After the audience had sung this popular song in the usual way, with faulty phrasipg, the director, 2 master of vocalization, taught the men and women present how to phrase 1t properly.
 Another attractive programme is promised for next Sunday.

Extra Session of Legislature Necessary, Says. Hender- son, to Give Soldiers in
 France Right to Vote

Irrespective of the action of the war department, Alapamians in France next year will not be permitted tp participate in political elections held in this state
 Governor Henderson, passing throush Birmingham yesterday, declared that under existing law, passed by the last legislature, 1t would be impossible to extend such courtesy to Alabamians. To remedy the situation, an extraordi- nary session Of the legislature would be necessary, and Governor Henderson made it plain that he would not cal the legislature together for that or any other than an extraordinary cause
 The governor intimated his dissatis faction with various features of the election law, which became law with out his approval and declared that ne regretted Alabamians will be unablH to take advantage of any favor which. the war department might grant.
