ESTABLISH ASPIN
AVENUE WIDTH SOON
Property Owners Seek Settle
ment To Question In Order
To Proceed With Work

Residents of Aspin avenue, de-
sirous of making many city i'm
.provements, since the improve
ment idea is in vogue, want the
city to designate the street prop
er on Aspin avende, north from
Main street to North street. The
thoroughfare is said to be wide
enough to admit of "a street SO
feet wide. However, it is con-
coded by residents that a 30-foot
street will be sufficient. In this
case, they want three-foot
grass plot, together with FIVE
foot sidewalk on the side, and the
property line established, in Or
der that they make the improve
ment work. This comprises, it is
said, several new sidewalks, new
residence buildings, etc.
Mr.. Brutus J Clay, one of the
property owners, was in attend
ance at the regular meeting Of the
city council and stated the desire
OF the owners, as well as himself,
was to have the property line es-
tablished as we'll as the width OF
the street, SO the work could go
on. There would be a surplus OF
about Is feet, should the 30-foot
street be decided upon, hence the
important issue. This would give
the property owners an addition
al front yard of about seven feet
per side. The legality of the
transfer, if such could be made to
the property owners by the city
was questioned by City Attorne5
Chenault. He stated his belle
that the matter would have to be
given further investigator. M
Clay stated it was not matte;
of giving the additional frontag
to the property owners, that tn
latter would take care of that par
of it, if the street width be estab
lished. This is another matte,
that will be UP for consideration
at the next meeting of the council
tits the intention to establish tn
width of the street and to improve
the same. However, the resident,
are anxious that this action be ia
ken Immediately, owing to thei;
desire to improve that section o
the city. 1t developed, according
to City Attorney Chenault, that
the city could not give over the
additional territory to the proper
ty owners, should the decision be
made to make but a 3O-foot street
The property owners , declared
the would take care" of the
transfer proposition themselves.

L7TdHE Clionion Literary club has be-
 gun it's year of activities in a
 = very creditable manner. The sub ject, World Progress,' allows a scope for study into every branch of art and learning. There have been given two aft ernoons of study of music, the first under the leadership of Mrs. J. M. Mason. Mrs. Mason presented to the club Mrs. J. E. Frazier, who gave a very instructive and delightfully."- interesting lecture on ''The Evolution of Song. At the following meeting Mrs. J. E. billiard, assisted by four of Birmingham's most recent musi- cal acquisitions, Mrs. J. P. Cunningham, Mrs. s. F. Miller, Miss Bonnie Howard and Mrs Lucia Joiner. The subject of Mrs Dillard's paper was Making Amer ica Musical" After an introduction on the general subject of music she spoke of Americas S music having it's root in past as distant as that in which the ele- ments of our language were formed, that of the folk song, and recited an original folk song. She then spoke of the native musical inheritance of America, that of the Indian and the negro
 At this place, Mrs. Miller, dressed in Indian costume, sang some most char iacteristic Indian songs. Mrs Miller possesses a beautiful contralto voice, ana iner interpretation or the IuuidH IiuSiC was delightful
 The victrola was used to illustrate the early negro music Mrs. billiard said, l"Their songs were trul van outburst of race finding expression in broken phrase, the most characteristic illustration being NO Body Knows the Trouble l See. " She spoke of the inheritance America received in her music from every foreign country, from the hymns of the Ruritan fore fathers of the east to the period os the revolution, the early composers includ- ing Hopkinson and Foster.
 Mrs J. P. Cunningham as a maid of the early eighteenth century, charmingly quaint in her hoop skirt and pantalettes, illustrated in song some of Fosters most loved ireside songs. Mrs. Cumming be- longs to the ranks of true lyric sopranos. Her voice is full of sweetness and sym pathy.
 The development of musical instru- ments was traced from the tuning-fork to the modern pipe organ
 Ethelbert Nevin and Mcdowell were given as the two musicians who link the past to the distinctively modern.
 Miss Bonnie Howard played McDow- eirs "Dance Adalouse.~ Miss Howard IS an artistic pianist. It has been said, An artist is one who makes you forget your s11rroundings." While Miss Howard paints a piano picture, one really forgets all but what he hears.
 Mrs billiard spoke of number of mod ern musical improvements which are tend- fng to make America the greatest musical nation in the world. These features or present-day progress were illustrated by

Don't Squeeze Black heads--Dissolve Them

Squeezing and pinching out blackheads make the pores large and cDuse irritation then, too. after they have become hard you cannot get all of them out Blackheads are caused by accumulatons of dust and dirt and secretions from the skin and there is only one safe and sure way and one that never fails to get rid of them-a simple way, too--that is to dissolve them. Just get from any drug store about two ounces of calonite powder-sprinkle little on hot wet sponge-rub over the blackheAds hriskly for few seconds-wash off and you'll be surprised to see that every black head has disappeared, and the skin will be left soft and the pores in their natural com dition-anyone troubled with these un- slightly blemishes should try this simple method.-Adv.
