Tn applause lasting many minutes, yesterday audience at the Lyric eX- pressed a deep appreciation of the act en- titled "Huclileberry Finn and Tom Saw yer' Seldom lfas any vaudeville act come as near creating a sensation. Tom Sawyer was marked with approval, put
 it was the impersonator of HuckleberrH
 Finn that proved so popular General
 opinion conceded, though that it wasn't t
 anything that he did particularly, but just the fact that he did it--in other words, personality.
 The act is Composed of dramatic sing ing and conversion. It is seriously in clined with little dashes of humor. The
 two boys appear barefooted and carry
 their number on very simply.
 Preceding the headiner were the
 Princeton Five in a variety musical of
 fering ntermixed with the doings of q 'comical man" They played on several
 kinds of instruments, the trombones seeming to win extra appreciation. Their
 number went over for hearty applause. Two Chinamen, who gave Chinese Revue" won many friends among the
 spectators. Part of their act consisted
 of giving an extract from East Is West" and some light-footed dancing m

JACK PICKFORD IN THE
 MAN WHO HAD EVERYTHING'

Jack Pickford is the principal .nale character in the Alcazar picture this week. He appears there as, Harry Bullway, the rich and pampered young hero of The Man Who Had Every thing" The story of this photopldy is based on little, astudy of human na- ture. It reveals End plays on the fact that human kind really loves the stolen sweets mostly because they are stolen. and not on the merits of the sweets themselves.
 Mark Bullway is a wealthy ship builder. whose only son is to all ap- pearances fast going down hill. The son, Harry. imagines himself as sub ject to all kinds of overwhelming de- sires for polo ponies, bull dogs, par ticular valets and also Lennore Pam nell. of whom his father disapproves with reason. Bullway receives the in- spiration to give his Son all of these desired objects and everything else he wants until the boys strength of char acter will rebel, which soon it does.

up, Fatty has part to play that is not even supposed to be at all hilarious.
 He is featured as the jovial sheriff of 2 small western town, and along with his comedy scenes he is called on for some real heroic work in some of his troubles as sheriff of rough westerners and a rescue out in the desert, which in cludes fight with the Indians that calls for bravery and not the usual Fatty Arbuckle' clowning scenes.
 But the producers have put in amuse- ment a-plenty to please the loyal Ar buckle admirers, and Fatty is shown in some comical stuff calculated to only amuse his audiences. The closing scenes, where everybody has a girl but Fatty, seem to please immensely as comedy.
 ''The Round-up'' has for it's central in terest the romance of Jack Peyton, the sheriff's friend, and Echo Allen. Jack deceives Echo and marries her while her real fiance is on the desert. Her sweet heart returns and group of complica- tions arise that end with the whole male east out on the desert in a fight with the Indians. How all of this came about and terminated makes the story.

 The fun commenced with the act of Bob Fisher and Jules Floyd, blackface comedians, who appear in one of the most comical acts of songs, comedy chatter and original jokes presented on a local vaudeville stage in many days.
 Ernie Gordon and Evelyn Delmar, well known musical comedy couple, presented one of the snappiest pianologue treats that has ever travelled over a southern vaudeville circuit.

The ParentTeachers Association of the high school will hold a meeting "Wednesday afternoon at S:30 o'clock in the high school auditorium, This will be the first meeting of the year g, all of the members are expected to De present as the question of a lunch room for the school will be brought lp
 It is understood that plans have been drawn for building lunch room by the board of education, and that the obstacle preventing the imme- diate erection of the building is the .ack of necessary funds.
 The lunch problem in the high school for the teachers as well as the pupils, is serious question, since there is no place suitable for eating lunches brought from home and the nearest lunch stands are in the town sec ton of the city Some of the teachers take their lunch at Mrs. Taylor's board ing house, which makes an extra ex- pense for them.

FOOTBALL GAME

There will be a mass meeting held at the high school Wednesday evening at 730 o'clock for the purpose of arousing interest in the football game which will be played Friday afternoon on the Rolling mill field between AL bertville and the Bessemer team.
 The school at Albertville is an agri- cultural school and it is understood that there is no age limit, as there is at high school. and it seems that the team from AlbertvilIe is made up of perhaps older boys.
 The Albertville team has not lost a game this season and neither has the Bessemer team, so an exciting ,,rme for Friday afternoon is promised and all of the citizens who are -interested in football and all students are urged to be at the mass meeting Wednesday evening at the high school.

A FTER today the election being over N and the realization felt that the country has so far been safe under any victorious party, the nation will give it's undivided attention to business.
 In doing so 1t will seek to get at under lying things rather than become over- wrought by what is immediately to the fore in each fellows case.
 Citizens of Birmingham should read again on Wednesday morning the two news items in the Age-Herald of Monday calling attention to the splendid condition of the nations banks and the encouraging report of the federal reserve system.
 What do the southern reserve centers say about conditions?
 Richmond observes: Price recession movement has broadened and there has been some recession in business"
 Atlanta retail trade" V St. Louis Fundamental conditions satisfactory, but hesitancy to purchase goods for future requirements.
 Dallas Abundant confidence in un- deriving conditions and in the future of trade. Transportation better and the la- Dor outlook improved"
 The reserve board, summarizing the situation at large, says: "Economic and business situation shows much inherent strength and ability to attain position of relative stability through an orderly transition"
 The comptroller of the treasury in- forms us that only five banks went into the hands of receivers during the year and none the year before. The banks paid $287, 100000 in interest to their stock holders. During the year 361 new na- tlonal banks were organized which is 50 per cent more than the greatest increase inmore than fifty years.
 St. Louis finds fundamental condi- tions satisfactory" Dallas reports abundant confidence in underlying con- dltlons. The report of the comptroller is to the same effect What more could a nation lately emerging from the greatest war in the history of the world ask? 1Ilc CtptdIIl Ol SCOuC snip that has Weathered many real storm is not alarmed at a slight drop of the barometer.
