One does not expect a great deal from a musical comedy in the matter of plot, but some music comes not amiss and eleverness is always acceptable. In these particulars, "Oh, Lady, Lady" a success of yesteryear which returned to the Jefferson last night for an en- gagement of two night performances and a matinee, ranks high.

In a programme that was of much more than ordinary interest, the prirna donna was assisted by Coenraad V. Bos, piano soloist and accompanist, and A. Rodeman, flutist.
 As to purity and sweetness of vocal quality there is no soprano now before the public that may be said to cast this charming singer in the shade. She is more than a 'coloratura.' for her voice, dazzling as it is in the florid flights which she so skillfully exc cutes, has so much of mellow rich ness and sympathetic appeal that the simplest song becomes a gem as valua- ble as the most elaborate aria.

For the Good of
 the Community

ID IRMINGHAM spent $146, 90460 on D her streets in the fiscal year ended September 30, 1919, out of total ordi- nary expenditure of S2,194,47168. See Financial Report of the City of Birming- ham for the year ending September 30, 1919, page II.
 These expenditures are classified by City Auditor J. M. Jones' Jr, as follows: Unpaved street repairs, $82, 2,27423; paved street repairs, $12,885.5 50; bridge repairs and construction, S9,29036 mis- cellaneous street expenses, S4,261.89; miscellaneous sewer expenses, S508.26; stock drinking fountains, $32427; street lighting, $47,32099; charity, direct re- lief, $39.1O.
 Deducting the street lighting, stock drinking fountains and direct charities, and balance of $98, is left for : strictly street and bridge and sewer re- pair and construction work. In other words, less than one dollar in every twen- ty-one of the total revenues collected by the city was expended in repairing and constructing streets and sewers in one tWelve-month period.
 And still the citizens of Birmingham complain about the condition of their streets. Mile after mile of the city streets are filled with holes, in some places mak- ing them almost impossible, even in good weather. Automobilists, while driving along some of the main thoroughfares, ex- perlence the sensations that might be ex- pected on a midway bump-the- bumps, or in driving diagonally across a cotton field after frosty morning in December, ex- cept that the bumps come with greater ir- regularity and more violence.
 This may be good for the appetite, but that is about the only recommendation that can be given, unless, maybe, the au- tomobile repair man comes in for gen erous patronage as a direct result of street conditions
 The city commissioners say they haven't the money to build streets, or to keep those we have in repair That may be true. But there are sections of the city where the streets have been characterized . for months past by big, dangerous holes and in which not lick of work has been done towards filling them in.
 Quareling with grand jury for in- specting the streets and calling attention to their condition in it's report to the court will not remedy conditions. It is patent to any person with eyes who travels over the city that conditions reported by the grand jury exist, and the report was not exag- gerated.
 City officials who really have the inter- est of their city at heart, who are trying to do their duty to the city and the citizens. and to discharge the obligation assumed when they accepted office should vel come suggestions and even adverse crit icism They cannot conceal themselves behind office furniture and snarl at the taxpayers and users of the city utilities who dare call attention to undesirable

federal taxes and necessitated the
expansion of the bureau from a small
peace time affair, concerned chiefly
with imposts on alcohol and tobacco,
into a tremendous machine reaching
into the pockets of millions of citi-
zens for increased income taxes and
into the records of corporations and
partnerships to take their excess
profits for prosecution of war. Ad-
ministering this task, Mr.. Roper fol-
lowed an original policy as exempli-
fled by his statement that a man
ought to be proud to pay taxes. He
sought and obtained cooperation of
business interests and expressed the
hope that he had been able to make
tax paying more popular that it was.
Evasions of the tax laws were pun
ished inexorably.

GIVES PAY TO RED CROSS

Franklin D'Olier, National Com
mander Of the American Legion, has
contributed all his pay as an Army
officer during his wartime service to
the American Red Cross. The last
contribution, recently made, was a
check for s2,571.19, which was en-
closed with the following letter:
81 have just received from the
Government my final pay as an off,
Ger in the United States Army. This
amount is S2,571.19, and covers
nine months pay from July 1, 1918,
to April 10, 1919, when I was muster
ed out of service.
"All of my former receipts from
the Government for pay as an officer
were given to the Red Cross either
here or in France; and as I wish to
make this final payment to tic Red
Cross, would appreciate it if you
would kindly let me know to whom
should endorse this check.
''Sincerely yours,
(Signed) "Franklin D'Olier."

BILL
KILLED BY SENATE

Columbia, Feb. 26.-Perhaps the
bitterest and most interesting fight
of the present session ended unex-
pectedly when the Senate by a vote
of 18 to IL killed the looking to the
establishment of Greek Letter Fra
ternities at State Colleges. The bur-
den of the fight against the bill fell
on Senator George K. Laney. During
he day he made a really remarkable
address pleading that peace be con-
tinued at the colleges and fraterni-
ties kept out.
The entire sessinon was spent in
argument mostly against the bill.
Tonight Senator Ridgell raised his
voice against the bill. He spoke
briefly and urged that fraternities
had caused discord and feeling at
colleges when they were there, now
that they are out there is peace and
growth begged that the happy con-
dition be left alone.
Senators Laney and Friday both
moved to strike out the cnacting
words. On the motion a record vote
was taken which resulted:
