His ancient cap in one hand and a bundle of papers under his arm, and in voice slightly hoarse from exposure and crying his wares. he asked:
 "Is this the place you leave money to buy food for the starving children in Europe?"
 When assured that 1t was, he stuck a hand into a pocket and drew out 10 soiled dollar bills and laid then on the desk.
 "I have been hearing about those children being so hungry and weak they could not even walk, and know 1t is perfectly awful to be real hungry, so I've been saving to : help"
 With that he turned and fled be- fore his name or address could be secured.
 A later Investigation revealed the boy is the only child of widow who. with his meaeer assistance. ekes out an existence by wGshing curtains.

 Having lived in Boston most of my life,o said c. c. Ham, naturally have always regarded the Boston symphony as the greatest of all American orches- |tras, but after hearing the Minneapolis N had to qualify the statement am anticipating the programmes here with great pleasure"
 "The Minneapolis orchestra is one of the greatest musical organisations e the day" said J.. 4. Yates. T heard them here a few years ago, and also during visit to the west.

about 25 years from now, when these underfed. diseased children grow into manhood and woman hood. It is then that will have the problem. There Is going to be left the enormous hole In the plan of things brought about by the
 heavy casualties of men durinE the War and thege struggling men and women are going to try to fill that hole.
 FUTURE YEARS 'It is then that our main problem will confront us. and tell you peo- pie now that all the peace or all the strife that we shall have in those days depends upon what you do for them now when they are in need" pr. Green touched on casualty stAtis- tics, and indicated the seriousness of the wars losses in man power They talk of peace" he said, but what is peace? How may it be gained? ? It will never be brought about by the advancement of theories nor by long talks, or bloated ideals.
 Peace can only be the result of real ization of high ideals, and it can only justice and righteousness and unselfish- ness.
 MESSAGE OF PEACE For 1000 years Christ has been knock ing at the door of human hearts trying to bring in a message of peace and righteousness just such as this, and now,
 as we sit here tonight. after having
 been shown what the other side of the world Is up against I know you all real tze and understand that the message of
 the Great Master is being surely and
 swiftly driven home. and the hearts of
 mankind are opening their doors to an-
 swer the knock. to give freely as they
 have received and in turn to take unto
 themselves that peace. of which it is
 written. passeth all understanding pr. Ii. M. Edmonds. rising to the oc-
 csssion, touched briefly on the work of the local populace. and said that it was work of which the citizens of Bir- mingham could be justly proud. The reasons why Binningham's part in the drive was going to be more than successful were told by J. Frank Rush. ton, who said the team work Of tho workers in the cause, coupled with the fine sense of unselfishness displayed py local citizens, was more than commend able.
 And another reason" said Mir. Rush. ton. 'why this city's part will be sue cessful is that these workers were trained to this work by gentleman who is present but whose name I will not 1 mention Much applause and laughter iohoWou tiuo ArnietN as IL WdS uiuer- stood MT. Rushton. veteran at the game

 SPEAKS OF FRANCE Frank P. Glass told of his trip through France recently. extending over a period of two months, and brought home to the 1 gathering in his remarks. first hand de scrlptions of the true conditions in Eu- rope as viewed by a local citizen and former newspaper editor. The musical programme was contrihut- ed to by the orchestra of the Birmirg- ham Musical association, under the di- rection of Gordon Ericson.
 A solo was sung by Mrs Wilbur Shack teton. and some songs were given by the Masonic chorus, directed by Stephen l Alsop. Erskine Ramsey. state relief director for Alabama, presided.

This was the vision held by the 211
 Birmingham citizens who attended the
 ''banquet' and sat at just such long
 boards. and ate just such food while
 they listened to the graphic story told
 by the speakers from the head table
 in the room. Receipts from the ban
 ouet were s21,1e0.
 PERSONAL SURVEY pr. Thomas F Green, chief of the bureaou of speakers of the American Red Cross, represented Herbert Hoover at the gathering, and spoke on condi- tions as he found them on a personal survey of stricken Europe. Dr. Green told oe the distress, and pointed to 1t as just one little item in the main result of the war. He indicated the great army of the maimed and broken men Of Europe as a permanent result of the great war and he forecast that the chief result would not be felt until 25 years from now when the children who are at present underging the hardshfps. exposure and dereliction of fated land would grow into man. hood and womanhood, struggling for existence
 T should pay tribute" the speaker said, "to the loyal citizens of Birming- ham for their splendid efforts thus far. am here as the personal representa- tive of Herbert Hoover, who cannot be with you, as much as he would like to because he has worked himself to that point where his physician said quit. and there was nothing else for us to do but to relieve him of all the work we could. So thus, I am with you. "And while passing let me say do not care what the Senate of the United states says or thinks about Herbert Hoover. He is God AL UnfWhfvta oS cabinet of Heaven"
 Pr. Green told how, in August of 1920, tour of inspection was made py the relief corps inspectors, and what they had found where the devas tation of war had cut most deeply into the widespread communities.
 The reports that were made in france were discouraging if they were anything, he said, and they then com , pared these reports with what they knew of Polish and Lithuanian cohdi- 1 tions. and found the latter to be in i'm : l mediate need of attention.
 HELP HAD GONE We were confronted then. iuime- diately with the fact" the speaker de- clared, that the Knights of Columbus | mad quit their work. They had closed up their stations of relief on European soil. the Jewish councils were only in
 Palestine and Assyria ministerinE unto tneir own. the Young Women's Chris tian association and the Young Mems Christian association were back in the states We were alone with our American relief corps.
 But don't believe we even realized ! the seriouspess of the situation until
 one of our field men. laA in septem- per. made another survey of eastern
 Europe, and cabled us that there werc millions, actually starving. gseAi \ 1 Then these organizations which bad
 been disba nded after the war got to- gether again. and we have stood now lighting again side by side to put this I urive over and to feed those starving I little ones. WOW we hnve this to face.
