ENSLEY

An enthusiastic meeting of the Ensley womans Civic Club was held at the Ensley library yesterday morning..
 A report Of the playground committee showed that s76 had been raised and ex- pended for playground equpments on the Ensley park playground during the sum mer. feature of the meeting was the displaying of the pennants won by the boys baseball and volley ball teams of past season. These pennants were for mally presented to Mrs. Joe smith at a recent meeting of the play ground as- sociation in Birmingham. But for technical error the pennaut for the girls volley ball team for the season would have gone to the Ensley team making the majority of the pennants of the season going to the Ensley boys and girls.
 These pennants will be displayed on the walls of the Ensley library.
 Prof E. E. Smith of Ensley High spoke to the members Of the Civic Club urg ing their cooperation in securing the use of the park for athletic activities during the school year. The high school wishes to make a baseball diamond and football field on the play ground and It is probable that a part of it will be used for. a drill ground for the high school cadets. MT. Smith was enthusias- tic in recommending that the play ground be made a community center for the people of Ensley and especially the school children
 The Civic Club made a protest against the practice of some citizens who are building houses out of the regular line on the streets and in so doing, depre- ciating the value of the property in the neighborhood and also the appearance of the streets This practice was con- dernned as being selfish, as well un- slightly and the city commission will be urged to take some steps that will make a recurrence of such buildings inpos- sible.

As it is the play is interesting with some ex- ceptions. It is showing at the Colonial.

And if they don't go through it previously they have ample opportunity in her appearances, whicn are usually of a red-booded, adventurous and fiery type. The White Moll," in which Miss White is being featured at the Rialto, is a hair-raising story of criminals, mixed in with good romance and some mystery. The star is very at- tractive as the White Moll,'' at first a feminine criminal.

the season with a score composed by the eminent violinist, 'Zimablist, d comic book written by Joseph w Herbert, and the entire production under the personal supervision of Joe Weber, who stands sponsor for the fact of having gotten together d cast of singers and actors of the first Wa ter. It surely appears as though the claim of novel entertainment will be borne out. by the performance.
 The story or plot deals of the sur prises that result in the outcome of divorces. Ordinarily this would lead one to serious thought but Joe Her bert has taken the humorous view of the subject and evolved an enormous amount of comic complications, the situations determining the difficulties that exist between husband and wife and their moth er-i in laws before and after divorce have been worked out in a comedy way which are sure to en- certain. The music being Zimbalist's maiden effort at a complete score, contains many melodies that are sure to entrance. and the cast of principals of which there are sixteen are all art ists of extreme ability both as to act ing and singing.
 MT. Weber has taken a long time to select each individual especially for their particular part, ana feels that he has assem- bled an aggregation of meritorlous talent that the public will soundly appreciate among the cast may be mentioned, Octavia Broske, Renee Delung, Jane Dair, George Bancroft, Ottille Courday.
