l did not weigh more than 100 pounds, as
 he passed a little fellow with his POO | pound spouse astradle his shoulders stopping laughing uproarsly and iab-
 ping hls fist into the smaller mans
 side, taunting him over the contrast in their burdens
 Just at this moment there was an
 unusually Keen flash of lightning A
 lew feet back of the two couples a
 young fellow was struggling under
 the weight of his sweetheart, twice his size, and from the expression on ms face, revealed in the lurd flash,
 is was easy to be seen that their
 engagement would end with that
 night 1 never saw such terror depict
 ed on any mans face, and the young | woman, embarrassed, but contented that she was escaping the mud and slush of the sidewalk, had her arms folded tightly around his neck. It was a memorable night in Ely ton and for days and weeks the home going incidents and the heavy down.
 pour of rain formed the principal topic
 of conversation, except when the young ladies. through embarrassment would change to other subjects
 Be it remembered, the fox trot. the chimmie and the tickle toe and the trunk bathing suit, for public display, and the costumeless chorus girl were unknown in Elyton in those days. Things that We now look upon as mat ters of course and with never thought of embarrassment would have brought the blush of shame to the women and girls of Elyton in 1871. "We youngsters who had no loads to carry had a great time. It was fun to us and we took especial delight in teasing the boys and girls, especially
 the girls, who had been compelled to find passage home in the manner de- scribed.
 Among all the incidents occurring since that night none has made deeper or more lasting impression on my mind and I still chuckle every time I recall it."

LEMON JUICE
 FOR FRECKLES Girls! Make beauty lotion for a few oents-Try It!

Squeeze the Julce or two lenohs into bottle containing three ounces of orchard white, shake well, and you have quarter pint of the best freckle and tar lotion, and com, plexion beauriiier, at very, very small cost.
 Your grocer has the lemons and any drug store or toilet counter will supply three ounces of orchard white for few cents. Massage this sweetly fragrant lotion into the face, neck, arms and hands each day and see how freckles and blemishes disappear and how clear, soft and rosy-white the skin becomes. Yes! It is harmless md never irritates.

Next Wednesday night at Woodrow Wilson park a concert will be given for the benefit of the Boys Industrial school band This concert is given under the auspices of the Civitan club and from the large number of tickets already sold it is certain to be a most successful affair
 The proceeds of the concert will be turned over to the band for the pur- chase of raincoats and other much needed wearing apparel.
 The boys band has played over forty engagements since the first of May, 1918, having responded to all calls for service. The following list of engage ments of the band during the past

the Community A WORD to theatregoers.
 A 1t has been the custom in Birmingham for a great many years for large portion of the audience at theatrical performance to come late and leave early Why it is so is hard to ex- plain.
 Persons coming in after the curtain goes up disturb all those who have been seated before their arrival. Persons leaving before the cur tain drops on the last act prevent those who want ito see the closing scene of the last act from do- ing so.
 The climax of play is supposed to come at the very end of the last act The audience is worked up to high pitch of expectancy. They want to know just what happens to every important character in the play. They want to know if Marjorie and Percival marry and if all tangles are unraveled so that they may live happy lever after"
 Often the last few words are the most import ant of the whole play They are always essen tial to full understanding and appreciation of the plot and the unraveling of it's tangled skeins. But how can the persons occupying the end seat see or hear what is going on or being spoken on the stage if those in the same row begin climbing over them several minutes before the curtain drops?
 
 perhaps do not intend to be rude. Under any other circumstances they would remain seated and quiet until the proper time to take their de- parture. But they do disturb others in the audience, and their act is rude.
 What man or woman of gentle breeding or po- lite training would think of bidding his or her host and hostess good night midway of the last act at a private entertainment? None in Bir- mingham, certainly. Birmingham people are not so rude as that.
 Why is not the same consideration of others shown in public playhouses, where the audience pays it's money to be entertained? It pays it's money to be entertained, not to have it's toes trampled on and it's vision and hearing shut off by persons climbing over them before the end of the play.
 Those who do not feel that they can afford to enter the theatre before the curtain goes up, or remain until it falls on the last scene; if they do not think 1t is not correct and proper to enter early or remain to the end, then they ought to stay away, or manage to be segregated in sec- ton where they will not disturb those desiring to see the entire show.
 Common courtesy demands this; considera- tlon of the comfort and pleasure of others re- Quire it.
 Of all the cities in the United States, Birming- ham probably stands out alone in this respect. In others there are late arrivals, but in none of them do the people begin to leave in the middle of the last scene
 ltisa bad habit and Birmingham people ought

bration which Is planned for this city.
on June 81. In honor Of our returned
soldier boys ore DESTROYS Of having It
understood that the affair is in honor
OF all men who wore the uniform Of the
United States regardless of whether
they were ever able to get to the other
side of the pond or not, as they know
that many young man had to stay in
camp in this country and eat his heart
out. wishing for chance to go over
there. The. following sketch covers the
situation clcverly:
SILVER STRIPES.
When we've honored the heroes return
ing from France,
And we've mourned for the heroes who
fell.
When. we've done all we can for the
homecoming man. ."
Who stood for the shot and the shell.
Let US all kcef in mind. those who lin
gcred behind.
The thousands who waited to 90
The brave and true who did all they
could do,
Yet they have only the silver to show.
They went from their homes at the sum-
mons for men.
They drilled in the heat Of the sun
They fell into line with a pluck that
was fine
Each chcerfully shouldering gun;
They were ready to die for Old Glory
on high.
They were enger to meet with the foe.
They were just like the rest Of our
bravcst and best
Though they have only the silver to
show.
Their bodies were here. but their spirits
were there
And tho boys who looked death in the
face
For the cause mad no fear. for they knew
many were here,
Ready to fill their places.
The ships came and went til the battle
was spent
And the tyrant went down with O blow.
But he still might have .reigned. but
for those who remained,
And have only the silver to show.
Sc here's TO the soldier who never saw
Franco ard here's to the boys
unafraid.
Let US give them their due. they were
glorious loo,
And it wasn't their fault that they
stayed
They were eager to share in the sacri-
fee then.
Let them share in the peace that is now,
For we know they were brave by the
service they gave,
Though they have only the silver to
show.
