Splendid Programme
 at Tutwiler Musicale

Many excellent singers have featured the Sunday evening programmes at the Tutwiler within the last three months, but none has been more enthusiastically re- ceived than Mrs. Holly Cowherd, who was the especial attraction last night. She has been heard here on many oc- casions, but never was she in better voice than she was at the Tutwiler musicale
 These were the songs she sang: Wake Up" (Phillips); encore, From the Land of the Skyblue Water" (Cadmon); Eve lyn," (MasseneD; encore, "Ravishins Butterfly CTurner-Maley).
 Down in the Forest" Ronald); en- cores, ''The Years at the Spring. (Beacn), and '.Nother O'Mine,' (Tours).
 Mrs. Cowherd has pure and sympa- thetic voice. Her phrasing is refined and her school reveals intellectual grasp
 Not often has Birmingham had so rare a treat as Mrs. Cowherd gave them.
 The Wiegand orchestra played many choice numbers, among them Gounod March Et Cortege La Reine de Saba and Suppe's "Pigue Dame" overture.

 gates allowed each state at the general
 convention of Episcopal churches in De-
 troit this week, are R. J. Williams of St
 Andrews parish, and William B. Flaw of Grace church of Woodlawn parish.
 The entire delegation from Alabama will
 include four clerical and four lay repre-
 sentatives The Rev. Stewart Mcqueen and Richard Wilkinson of Montgomery, together with the Reverends lI. w. Gam ble of Selma and Edward A. Penick of
 Tuscaloosa are the clerical delegates elected by the church council of the state
 Besides the two Birmingham deputies, the lay delegates will include Henry Whit field and F. B. Feltus from Alabama. The Right Rev. Charles H. Brent bishop of western New York, will preach the opening sermon of the convention, and the programme during the sessione will be continued with addresses from Admiral William s. Sims, Rev. Orval < Petty senior chaplain of base hospital iii Bordeaux. and from Father Duffy of the Fighting Sixty ninth. Miss Mary Van ] Kleek of the Russell Cage Foundation, will speak on The New Industrial Posi- ton of Women" The list of speakers also numbers Bishops Benjamin Brewton 1 Gerry and Mccormick.
 Among the distinguished delegates will 1 be Gen. John J. Pershing, Franklin b. l Roosevelt Assistant Secretary of Navy, and Brig Gen. Lawrence D. Tyson of l Knoxville, who commanded the Thirtieth division in France.
 ! As the supreme governing body of the
 Episcopal church, the convention will de- vote much time in both the house of bish- ops and house of deputies to the report | that will be submitted on revision and | enrichment of the book of common prayer.
 ! This report recomm ends an entirely new
 prayer for the President of the United
 States, more democratic than the old,
 taken from the English prayer book. For | the first time prayers are added for the
 army and navy, courts of justice, state l legislature, for all who labor, for social justice, and for the stewardship of
 wealth
 1 A commission of bishops, clergy and ' laity will recommend the amendment of l the canon law of the church so as to pro hibit any clergyman from officiating at the marriage of divorced person. The marriage with the church service of the l innocent party in a divorce is now per
 mitted with the consent of the bishop. The proposed amendment would make l impossible the church marriage of any person who has husband or wife living. i This proposal was adopted at the last
 convention by the house of bishops and was supported by the clerical members of the house of deputies, but the lay dele gates defeated it by a narrow majority. 1 Of interest to other denominations will ] be the nationwide campaign of church unity that will be discussed at this con
 vention; also the great meeting over
 which Bishop Ethelbert Taylor will pre-
 side, which will give careful consideration
 to the Co ordination of Religious Forces of the United States

The scene within the cathedral was unique in the annals of the western world it might have been repre- duction of a mediaevsl painting. Two cardinals sat upon their thrones and with them he king. his queen anI heir apparent. as was their royal rigltt under he laws iof the church.

 We pray God to preserve you for many long and happy wears and to give you in futures for the sorrows and sriefs so nobly borne a thousa nd consola tons by the complete restGra- ton of the beloved Belgium in which every American desires to nave q share"
 Turning then to Cardinal Mereier. he said:

 Ttc king stood with his hands clasped in front of him. his shoulders squared, a truly martial figure. The slender queen, gowned all in white, reached scarcely to his shoulder. but she bore herself with simple dignity.

 The king and queen knelt reverently as the solemn mass began with all the ceremony of the Catholic church.
 They stood as they touched the as- perscrium and made the sign of thc cross. From the stained glass win dows the figures of martyrs to the faith looked down upon them.

 the regular troops and members of the American legion who volunteered to
 aid the authorities. His statement, in
 part follows:
 "The people of the city have co-op-
 erated we'll There was evidence Of
 an extensive effort to so terrorize the
 officials and the citizens generally
 that there would be no attempt to pre-
 vent wholesale footing and destruc-

 .The principal disorder. which arose from specific cause. namely the as sault on white woman by negro was seized upon by the organized ele- ments of disorder. which are to be found in the population of every large city. ever ready to seize upon any in cident which will incite mob violence, with a view to overturning the con- stituted authorities of government and establishing 8 reign of terror under mob rule.
 LABOR CAME CLEAN Labor organizations came out squarely on the side of law and order. The American legion responded promptly in support of the civil au- thorities and more than 400 of them were deputized as special police. These were all well-trained men who had taken part in the late war and were all of them representative citizens of Omaha. These men furnished a spe- cial illustration of American citizens rising in defense of their homes, all 1 the more loyal and more devoted in 1 training and experience.
 '7rhey were quickly organized and
 were highly efficient.
