For the Good of
 the Community

ROMOTERS of the Peoples Choral Society have met with substantial announcement in the last few days and the prospects of making it into really creditable musical organization are good.
 Several responses have been received by MT. Forrest Dabney Carr, the leader, to his proposal that certain number of persons subscribe fixed amounts towards fund needed to defray expenses of the soceity and the S1 ,OO0 suggested as neces- sary for that purpose appears to be in sight.
 The society will repeat "The Gale of Life at the South Highlands Presby- terian Church tomorrow night, and the enthusiasm with which it's first presenta- tion was greeted at the same place week ago last Sunday night, assures larger audience for the second performance.
 The leader and the members of the chorus receive no compensation for their work other than the satisfaction of know ing they are contributing to the musical = culture of Birmingham and thereby help ing to develop one element of the social and artistic life of the city that seems to have been neglected in the past.
 Whatever money is put into musical organization of competent leadership and { competent voices is we'll invested. It will repay the contributors many fold in en- tertainment and add to the cultural de- velopment of the city.
 The Peoples Choral Society is the nu- cleus of a greater aggregation of talent that will in time raise Birmingham to an equal plane with other cities of similar size and importance in the music world. It will create and develop musical at- mosphere that will make possible the bringing of the great stars here for per- formsnce with fear of financial loss to those responsible for their coming.
 The Peoples Choral Society, the Music Study Club, the South Highland Presby- terian Choir of nearly forty voices, splen- did choirs at other churches and the sev- eral music classes and studios all work ing together for the advancement of music when substantially backed up and en- outraged by the citizens will make Bir- mingham a music center of note, and bring thousands of visitors here every year.

The shadows of the spruce trees

brown foothills. And among the
trees 1t was cool and green, and clear
blue water rippled over beds of shin

The house was of round, straight
logs; the shingles of the squat roof
were cupped and blistered with the

to pieces and range steers had stray
gled unscarred across it's scattered
remnants.
Forward, and to the left, was
small corral, mill slabs on end or
fences of lodgepole pine; corner
somewhat covered in, offering vague
protection frem the weather. The up
per poles were worn thin with the
cribbing of many horses.
The desertion seemed absolute; the
silence was the silence of the unspo-
ken places. But suddenly it was bro
ken by stamping in the covered part
of the corral, and a mans voice say
ing:
"Hip, therel Whoa, you cayuse
Get under your saddle! Sleepin'
against post all day, you Sloppy

THE cow PUNCHER

Here's an up-to-date story Of
the ranch country, the city and
"over there" it's a love story
the story Of the master passion
that drives a man onward to sue
cess for the sake Of the woman
he loves. The hero Is a nave
rick of the foothills. The heroine
is a city girl born to the con-
ventions.
As the boy was practicing
shooting with his cayuse on the,
dead run along came the first
automobile he had ever seen. 1t
obIigingIy tipped over right be-

time for Dave and Irene to get

Suddenly he brought his horse to a

the house he again spurred him to n

animals side deftly picked a bottle
from among the grass. Then he circled
about, repeating this operation as
often as his eye fell on bottle, until
he had half dozen; then down the
road again, carefully setting bottle
on each post of the fence that sklrted

Again he came back to the house,
but when he turned his eye was on
