Need Auditorium.

The way the Jefferson theatre was sold out for the Farrar concert in an hour and half shows the need of an auditorium" says H. Key Milner. There were hundreds who wanted 10 hear the famous prima donna and tal- ented artists associated with her, and yet were denied because there was no place large enough in Birmingham to accommodate them. Every effort ought to be made to get to work on the audi tcrium. I realize there are difficult ties, but they ought only to be chal- lenge to the Birmingham sRirit."

 When I arrived in Birmingham l was surprised to find that anyone could Kick about the prices of things in gen eral that was charged here. l haven't heen in the city long enough yet to try and figure out what is the cause of the cheapness of things here or the highness of things ine Texas unless it is because it is so hot down there and the merchants figure that about pound in weight will dry out of their merchandise before they can, sell 1t, and they have to charge higher prices to make up for it."

WANTS PALMER
 FOR FIGHT IN
 BISBEE ARENA

O. S. French, manager of the Bisbee Athletic club, went to Douglas yester- day to interview Kid Palmer about a match to be held in BiSbee. French succeeded in getting the Kids signature for bout here on Thursday May 20. No opponent has vet been decided on for Palmer, but French is in communi- cation with Johnny Celmar. who is now in Fort Worth, Texas.
 Celmar will be remembertd as the boy who battled toe to toe and head to head with Frank LOughrey for ten of the fiercest rounds that have ever been fought in this state. Celmar also repeated the performance with Russell Chambers of Douglas and gained the reputation of being one of tue hareost fighters that has appeared in the local arena. .....-
 Though Palmer has only fought once in Bisbee. his abilities are well known as he has fought and defeated the toughest men that have been i'm ported into this state for the purpose of stopping his gradual rise to cham pionship hOnors. Palmer has been on the coast and became very popular with the fans there. z.-.

Bowlus Advances: When General
Pershing arrived in France with the
first American troops, he visited the
tomb Of Lafayette and the speech he
made was" Lafayette, we are here"
meaning that the United States was
on hand to pay it, debt to France for
the help it received in the days Of the
American Revolution. Now, when a
bunch of. re-actionaries in the United
States Senate are planning to wreck
the League Of Nations and leave the
world in chaos, it is suggested that it
would be good idea to send someone
over to France to make another speech,
saying 'Lafayette, we have quit.'
