THE PHILOSOPHICAL
 SOCIETY'S WAR WORK

That the TheoSophical society is doing strenuous war work is a fact that is but little known outside its own member ship. It is always a source of inspira- ton to know of more energy being util- ized toward accomplishing the great un- selfish purpose to which we have pledged our hearts and hands The Theosophieal society has at the present time turned aside from many of it's activities in or der to give more time to the furthering Of the struggle for worldwide democ- racy.
 Houston theosophists have been most energetic in their work for Camp Logan and Ellington Field. A large hall on Main street has been attractvely fitted up as a club room for the soldiers. Piano, victrola and splendid library lend a wonderful atmosphere. Classes are held here, and public lectures through which they boys are better able to understand why we are at war, the ideals and mighty purpose that lie back of our pres ent chaos. Social affairs are held semi weekly In every way the welfare of our soldiers are kept as the ideal. This is but one instance among many
 Max Wardall, a Seattle lawyer, and one of the national theosophical lecturers whom Birmingham people will recall as having lectured here, leit the lecture field at the beginning of the war and enlisted He became an officer, and has since been appointed lecturer for the United States government in order that lie might explain to the men the inner meaning of the war from his own re- markable inner viewpoint.
 Beginning today, Birmingham will have the pleasure of hearing Eugene w Nun. son, a Californian. lecture on the signits- canoe of the great crisis. MT. Munson's lectures are said to be indeed remark 1 able, and in such dark hour of trial l it will be of great value to have a con 1 vincing, clear, hopeful message, espe i ciaily to those who have loved ones a

MAY DANCE AT THE
 MARGARET ALLEN SCHOOL

The last of these many delightful oc- casions occurred on the lawn Of the school Friday morning. For two hours the large gathering of friends and ad- mirers enjoyed a spectacle of grace and beauty far beyond the power of words to describe. The attractive setting. the green carpet of grass, the spreading can opy of the leafy branches overhead, the mingled sunlight and shadows falling upon the white-clad daisy crowned young people produced a lovely picture not easily forgotten.
 All did so well it is difficult to dis tinguish, but the solo dance by little Miss Denegre and the two numbers by Miss Keiser, He Loves Me Not, lie Loves Me-" and "The Pipes O Pan were enthusiastically appreciated All or the little people in their Nursery Rhymes" and Little Miss Shireman III s"rhe War Garden,' were especially at- tracted. .
 The older pupils were at their best m Caprice and i'll the Dixie Division. ! The entertainment was a great success and MT Miles has every reason to pc proud of his Margaret Allen school pu- nils
