ment of human emotions. and the an- swer has always been the same. It is absolutely human. In catching the spirit of Miss Hursts story, the director of this aramount-Artcraft production, Frank Borzage, has transferred it to the screen in an intensified appeal.
 There is no way of ranking "Humor- esque'' under the three ordinary head ings of the screen--tragedy, drama or comedy There are elements of all three in this production, which is said to bring to the screen something new in films.
 Critics with one accord have hailed it as something beyond the ordinary. There are no stars in "Humoresque" on which to place the honors, but to all Of the cast is accorded the highest praise. Among those who were chosen especially for the roles they are called upon to portray are Vera Gordon, Alma Rubens and Gaston Glass.
 One critic said of "Humoresque:"
 ''The production of 'Humoresque' is an observation of the ideal of home life that the appeal of a picture may be made without bordering on the prurient, leaving the audience with furtive traces of tears and radiance of smiles. It has a peculiar quality of tying the appeal to the life of every Specator, whether it be the human interest created by the child life, the parting of the son from his mother on his eve of entrance into the
 trenches, or the flutter Of love strength ened in the breast of the young musi- elan as his loved one gives way to her grief because of his refusal to bind her

MUSIC STUDY CLUB SER|ES0F CONCERTS Wide Variety of Artistic At- fractions Announced for
 Coming Season

The brilliant series of concerts ar ranged by the Music Study Club of Bir- mingham for the coming season mas at- tracted considerable attention thro lgh- out the country Mrs. Edna c. Gusssn, chairman of the programme commit tee, has received q letter of conSr ltu- lation from one of the leading New York musical agencies complimenting the club on it's choice of artists and arrangement of programmes.
 The Music Study Club course has been commented on by the principal musical journals both of New York and Chicago and has been cited on several occasions as ideal series of concerts, presenting, as 1t does, one of the su- perb soprano voices of the day in .dar- garet Romaine, prima donna of the Metropolitan Opera Company, who is already favorite in Birmingham; Percy Grainger. who is today recog- nized as one of the pillars of the mod ern school of pianists and who ,,as been playing to packed houses during the past three seasons in America.
 A gracious compliment has been paid to a former resident of Birmingham, MT. Frederick Gunster, whose rich lyric tenor voice and polished art has brought him fame throughout tho en- tire country.
 The engagement of the famous New York Philharmonic Orchestra for . spring concert will insure Birmingh music lovers of the opportunity of hear ing one of Americas most celebrated symphony orchestras in its entirety. The Philharmonic will play in Birming- ham immediately following it's Pacific coast tour and it is safe to say that it's appearance here will prove one of the most important events of the com ing season.

 rate Productions

 The first will be shown Monday, Tues day and Wednesday, while The Ro- nance of Tarzan" will be the feature Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
 Tarzan is fictional character which is known to millions of readers. The stories by Edgar Rice Burroughs featur- ing this white man who was reared by group of anthropoid apes, are consid cred among the most famous ever writ ten. la filming them the producers have been able to intensity the interest of the printed pages many times, because the players live the scenes the author de- scribes.
 Tarzan is the son of a white man and he becomes lost in the jungles while baby. Instead of perishing he was res- cued by huge apes. They adopted the human infant and proceeded to rear F as their own offspring. The story ot "Tarzan of the Apes is the story of this baby niracuiousiy rescued and reared to the full wisdom of the jungles by the apes He learns to converse with them and to understand other animals. so that he is master of the forests he >roams.
 In The Romance of Tarzan' he re- turns to civilization and there assumes his rightful place.

 With the honor of American manhood as it's theme, a broi1ing political cam paign as it's plot and locale which takes audiences back to the old homestead of a gentle New England town, "Homespun Folks is described the most human, absorbingly wholesome document yet con- tributed to the cinema.

Mr.. Hays letter, in part, follows:

league of nations has been the earnest
effort of the republican organization
ever since the administration took over
the cables, which kept the country from
knowing anything about the development
of the covenant. We will, of course. be
glad to do anything further possible,
with you or separately, as we are do
ing. to that end.
May l further suggest. likewise
in the interest of truth. that we make
an effort in some way to ascertain
and advise the country just what the

country would do, which may not be

you find out just what this was, and

William Mckinley was the repuo

America on a course of responslpllity.
1t is now question of whether the
republicans are men enough TO come
