These are the three alternatives,
according to Miss Margaret Law

Solaee To Be Found
There's plenty of solace and COM
fort in Leap year for the girl who
has not yet marched down the aisle
to the Lohengrin strains. Miss Law.
renee found that, according to the
law in England-the common law,
which is basis for the law we now
use--a spinster, during Leap Year,
may propose to the man of her choice
and he must accept, give her silk
dress, or kiss, or all three.
Miss Lawrence also found plenty
of other justification for Leap year.
For in the old Scotch law is the fol-
lowing:
1T Is status and ordaint that dur
ing the rein of her maist blissit Meg

French legal history and there are
records showing that the privilege

Forrest Dabney Carr Will Sing at White
 Sulphur Springs

Forrest Dabney Carr will leave this evening to fill two concert engage ments at White Sulphur Springs, w. Va. In speaking of his work for the coming season Mr Carr said:
 q will again take my former pla ce upon the concert platform, giving oc- casional concerts in different sections of the country, but will continue my vocal class and choir work at the south Highlands Presbyterian Church. I feel deeply grateful to my many friends who have suggested from time to time I should be heard moe often in recital work here in Birmingham. Therefore, it affords me much pleasure to announce two subscription concerts will be given in the Southern Club in response to these requests.
 "It is my purpose to resurrect some of the great Lowe ballads which will prove very refreshing to the subscrib- CTS; also will give insight into musical com positions seldom heard upon the for the small concert room in order to permit of the coloring and contrast ing voices that are necessary to make these wonderful ballads @comprehen- sive. For that reason felt the South ern Club, with its limited seating ca pacity. would be an ideal place for such efforts.
 The date for the first concert will take place in November, the second in January. On both occasions MT. Carr will have the assistance of Miss Min nie McNeill. pianist

Many members of the American Legion were present at the fourth re- hearsal of the post band yesterday in the armory of the city hall. o. F. Lit tie, band leader is optimistic over the chances of the organization.
 Professor Little says that enough instruments have been secured to sup ply all members at the next rehearsal on Tuesday The pracsice will be held at s o'clock in the armory. Not only have instruments been supplied. but electric fans have been secured to make the surroundings pleasant dur ing the practice.
 MT. Little urges that every ex- service man in the district. whether he is member of the Legion or not, be at the practice Tuesday. There will be enough instruments for all.
 While at present the city hall arm ory has been offered for practice, the band officials are looking for another and more convenient place. Practice will be held every Tuesday and Fri day night until the latter part of Sep tember, when the band will go to Cleveland to attend the national con- vention of the American Legion.

.DR. DOZENS CALLED | HIGHLANDS CHURCH
Unanimous Call Given Min ister Well Known Here.
 Gifted Preacher

At a congregational service held after the service at the South Highlands Presbyterian Church yesterday, the members voted unanimously to extend a call to Dr. William Ray Dobyns, at present pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of St Joseph, Mo.
 committee from the locai church re- gently visited St, Joseph and heard pr. Dobyns preach and had a conference with him regarding a call to the pas torate here. While he would not commit himself, he assured the committee that if unanimous call be extended, he would give it serious consideration. He visited Birmingham during the general assembly and laymen's convention, he said. and appreciated the fine field here for usefulness in the Lords service.
 committee was appointed to prose- cute the call officially through the pres byteries and the South Highlands church hopes for an early acceptance so that the new pastorate might begin by fall.
 Dr. DobynS has been pastor of the ch urch at St Joseph for twenty years, and the committee reported that he had built a magnificent church there and ac- com plished wonderful work. He is recognized as one of the eminent di- vines in the southern assembly and has
  mittees.
 He is a gifted preacher and ranks as one of the greatest Bible students in the country. He was one of the founders of the laymen's missionary movement and is sought after for convention pro- grammes because of his great influence with men.
 During the world war he was, through the courtesy of his church, in charge or the r. M c. A. religious work for six months at Camp Gordon near Atlanta. w. s. Stallings. local secretary. speaks of him as most successful organizer and a deeply spiritual man.
 Dr. Dobyns is personally known to all the Birmingham Presbyterian preachers and to many of the other denominations Dr. J. E. billiard of the Southside Bap- tist Church, also from St Joseph, speaks in the most gracious terms of the cordial relations which existed between himself and pr. Dobyns for six years.

LOCAL POST FOR MEN OF SIXTH DIVISION
National Organization of Famous Division Under Way-Commander
 Promoted

As soon as a roster of the men Is se- cured. work will begin toward a na- tional organization. of Sixth division men, George l.. Bailes of the Birming- ham Post announced yesterday.
 The Birmingham post was organized some time ago. Robert Chambless was elected adjutant. MT. Bailes states that as soon as the roster is made up the local post will ask Congress for a charter. It is then planned to form 1. national organization with Birmingham as the home post
 The roster is being prepared by Gen. Walter H. Gordon, in command of the division during the war, who is now connected with the adjutant generals office at Washington. The name and address of every man in the division will be shown by the roster
 Alabama has about 250 men of the Sixth division. Members of this ia nous division are to be found in most all of the southern states. It is be- lieved that Minnesota leads the states with over 1000 members
 During the past week the Birming- ham post sent a telegram of congrat- ulation to Walter H. Gordon, former commander of the division, on his pro- motion from colonel to brigadier gen. eral He held the provisional rating of major general during the war He afterward went back to his old rating of colonel. He held this rating until promoted a few days ago.
 The Sixth division is still a part of the regular army. It is unlike the Rainbow division in this respect. How ever. most of the men who were in it during the war have gone back to civil life These are the men who propose to form an organization similar to that of the Rainbow Veterans
