It Is urged by the women in charge Of the Christmas packages to be sent to the soldiers at the front of which Mrs. M. V Joseph is chairman, that all con- tributions be sent in at once that each one will be remembered during the holi days by those at home, To let them know that though far away, they are ever in the minds of the people at home and their loved ones.
 Birmingham's share in this splendid work is to remember TOO boys and the funds now on hand will only provide for about one-fourth of that number.
 It would truly be a mistake if we could not send to all and with a small contribution from each of us. there would be enough and more to provide for those splendid fellows.
 The headnuarters for receiving contri- buttons will be open on Thanksgiving Day from II to o'clock in Blachs an- nex, and it is hoped that many will call and show their willingness to aid Mrs M V. Joseph. Mrs. Samuel Ad- Ter and Mrs. Ross Smith in their splen- did undertaking.

But since the boys have returned to the state, they have not confined their activities to any one line of work, but have lent their aid to many who are in need. One of the things that they have been very active in aiding has been the fresh air school at Green Springs. The ball they gave last season to se- cure funds was most successful, and they have recently announced their sec ond annual ball for the evening of De- cember 5. at the Tutwier when the par ents or the young women members will act as patronesses, with q number of other society women.

 The club will be thrown open and will present most gala appearance with the attractive decora tions through out.
 The ball room will be converted into Verltable bower by the uses of palms. ferns and smilaN combined with wis teria, With quantities of flags waving here and there. The ladies' paror will be adorned with Richmond roses and ferns and palms and will form a fitting background for the many lovely young girls and matrons who will attend.
