only charter members present.

Arriual of the Americans

On the water front one notices that the
 big American warehouses are covered
 with strange hyeroglyphics. These Il
 turns out are shipping addresses an5
 crate markings, as all the lumber in this
 array of buildings is from crates and
 boxes bringing army supplies. Some of these crares carrying cars were immense,
 with planlling and heavy timbers. Every
 board and beam was saved, for lumber
 were drawn and saved. And out of this
 waste lumber and nails have arisen most of these mammoth buildings marked from
 end to end with shipping addresses.
 Besides the immense work of receiving
 troops and supplies direct from America,
 this is the headquarters also for the chan mel ports, through which other streams
 of troops and supplies pour in from Eng land when the first arrival from America is made at Liverpool or other English
 port Thus two vast streams are pour ing in here, one from the west, the other from the north, both merging and nov ing forward in one united stream to the fighting front,
 Along the sea front one gets an idea Of the vastres of the work going on. On

 l "Of course, the one big thing in ia 1 vor of the theatres,' MT Parlxes re- marked, lis President Wilson's ruling that the theatre is an, essential during lswar times. The connifttee from the lunited managers who presented their 1 side of the case to the President were delighted that he took the same view 1 of 1t that we did. If the theatres were allowed to discontinue during the war 1 and people had no other alternative than 8 constant breeding upon the sit uation and the condition of affairs over there with no recreation and no diversion, it would mean that the world would stark mad.
 Again. if the theatres are allowed to lag behndI MT Parkes continued,
 when. our soldier boys come back and find that such conditions exist and they
 have no recreation of the kind that they like, and most of them like the theatre, they would feel very badly to- ward us to think that we had neglected them. It is our part to keep the Home Fires Burning just as much as it is theirs to keep fighting.
 Then again." Mir Parkes said "the tremendous revenue which the govern ment derives from the war tax on theatres and places of amusement is another reason for the upkeep of the theatres: the sum of more than $150,- 000,000 has been placed to the credit so far of the theatres; that's a mag nificent showing And then, too. the stage people have done their bit so maryellously since the war began; the Stage Woman's league has undertak en the most excessive war work and ac- complished it, giving generously to the measure; the women of the stage have given magnificent benefits, arranging the affairs. themselves aside from con tributing their talents absolutely free of charge. At Madame Alda's benefit for the music of the navy at the Metro politan opera in New York last May, more than $S5;000 was realized at the one single performance. There is no profession in the world more liberal more responsive and more patriotic than the theatrical profession.

1 Tn regard to our attractions this sea-
 son at the Jefferson" MT. Parkes con-
 tinued, T am glad to say that we have pectus We have chosen the best dramas, particularly some very fine war dramas. 1 think perhaps one of the most unique attractions is the play, out There The big all-star cast of, this play, at the ex- pense of the individual members of the company, made transcontinental tour | in the spring, the receipts for the Red | Cross from it amounting to over s650,- 900. Burr Mcintosh went with the com pany and auctioned off the autographed 1 programmes, bearing the signature of the large number of people in the com pany, and at one place alone he re- ceived over $23,000 for the programme. This play created a tremendous sensa- tion from east to west. It only came south as far as Louisville, and witf,s it's
 autumn season inaugurated within a short time, 1 am glad to say Birming- ham is included.
 "Our opening on September 19 will have 1 Watch Your Step as the attraction MT. Farkes said, land this will be followed by The Brat and Al G. Fields min- strels, without which no theatrical sea
 son would be complete: this is stand : by and one of the most popular in theatrical circles.
 Tn October MT. Parkes said, we have a weeks engagement for Davi1 WarB Griffith's wonderful war picture, Hearts of the World.ss This will be the first time that this picture has been shown in Birmingham; the critics pro- nounce it the equal, if not the superior of Mir.
