WALTER SPRY'S
 LECTURE RECITAL

Much interest is being manifested by the pupils of the Birmingham Conserv- atory of Music in the coming lecture recital of MT. Walter Spry. This re- citaI is to be given under the auspices of the conservatory at Cable hall, Tuesday. March 8.
 Maurice Rosenfeld, in the Chicago Daily News says of him:
 MT. Spry put forth an easy cle- gance. fancy for nice tonal effects. a musical reading and a mechanism and manipulation which were more than ad- equate for the complete representation of his programme. He won the plaud- it's of his audience by his artistic qual- ifications, and his quarter of century piano fete was attended by genuine artistic success
 The following is from Henriette Weber in the Herald Examiner:
 ITO all of his programme, MT. Spry brought to bear a thoughtful jntelli- gence. finished clarity of outline and Ia scholarly purpose. For his dis.in- |guished attainments, past andspresent, MT spry was heartily applauded."
 Florence French, in the Musical Leader, states:
 "All he offers is distinguished by musicianship. musical intelligence (which are not Synonymous virtures) ,, fleet fingers and admirable poise." MRS. SCRUGG'SN LUNCHEON

. DINING to Birmingham Wednes~
 day evening, under the auspices Of - the Birmingham Iyceum assocla-

NN DINING to Birmingham Wednes-
 day evening, under the auspices Of
 the Birmingham Lycoum assocla- tion, is one of the notable men of our country Rabbi Stephens S Wise, noted teacher, philanthropist and lecturer. The Birmingham Lyceum association has had a wonderfully successful and brilliant season, and it's offerings have been of the highest class of lecturers, who have been met with fine audiences ot interested hearers.
 Much of the success of the association is due the versatile and energetic presi- dent, Mrs. Maurice Lenle, who has been admirably assisted by Mrs. Dora c. Fell and by the womens clubs of the city.
 It seems fitting that after the lecture , of the great explorer, Stephenson. should come a man so well known for the power of his personality and the strength of his copvictions.
 Within recent months Rabbi Wise has been in Palestine in the interest of the Zionist movement, of which he is one of the great leaders. He has been in Bir- rningham before, and on his arrival this week will be met by host of friends. : Dr. Wise was born in Budapest in 1872, but has lived flor many years In the United States. At Columbia university he was gwen tue pCSIETduudlc QeSTcty D. As rabbi of the Madison Avenue sym i agogue from 1903 to 1900. hes served his novtiate. In 1906 he declined the pulpit ,of the wealthy Temple Emanu-Ef on Fifth avenue on the ground that his utter ances would be subject to 8 board of trustees. ~
 When Dr. Wise left Portland, Ore, to return to New York, where he estab- ,ishcd his free synagogue, at a formal [ han at tyiy in 1,v nent citizens of Portland the governor of the state. the mayor state senators and other men of note regretted his re- moval as a loss to Oregon well as to Portland. The toastmaster voiced the sentiment of the company in saying, All Oregon hopes you will come back to us. .
 This token of regard is noteworthy as given to one who had come to Oregon simply as religious leader in the in ,terest of reformed Judaism. i..t
 Of his conception of the office of the church in the world, pr. Wise declares; 'HThe root of religion must rest in the innernost soul of man; but it's frutage must be in every act of his life. It IS lnot the business of the church to keep iorder and enforce the law; but 1t is the business of the church to bring i'll a new order, to substitute a higher law"
 It was Rabbi Stephen s. Wise of the Free synagogue, New York Ncity, who coined the expression heard so often dur ing the last. few years "Assassinau- lcrocy." He used this expression to define

the Teuton and Turkislp systems of gov ernment, and the word struck popular chord in the American press and with the American people.
 Rabbi Wise was a recognized broadly leader from the beginning of the war. He served as shipyard laborer at stam- ford, Conn, and was closely associated with every war movement throughout the entire period of the war He represent ed the American Jewish congress and the Zionist organization of America in rela- tion to Nthe peace conference. He was awarded the Legion of Honor by France for eminent service to the French repub- lie during the war.
 pr. Wise's relations have always been close to President Wilson and his cab met, he having been one of the earliest supporters of President Wilson long be- fore the latter became President.
 Rabbi Wise is one of the most interest," ing figures in American life today. He founed the Free synagogue in New York city, and today his Free synagogue in Carnegie hall, is the great social center of New York, where class distinctions are abolished, where rich and poor alike gather, where Gentiles and Jews meet | and worship on the oldfashioned religion of the brotherhood of man, each in his own particular way.
 Undoubtedly Rabbi Wise is one of the greatest modern thinkers and speakers. He is fearless champion of right, a powerful foe of wrong, and he strikes straight out from the shoulder wherever | the blow may fall. As an orator he is said to be Without peer.

What s New
On
The NJ arket

Eggs are short. The neck break
ing egg laying pace with which
hens opened the spring season a
few months ago seems to have
been the end of their desire to
supply the market during the
summer months. Size and quanti-
ty didn't matter early in the
spring, the hens were out to break
all records and they did. But
now the tables are reversed and
dealers state that never before in
the history Of the egg market
have they paid such high prices
at this time of year. While some
dealers have been holding their
prices below the 35 cent mark
it is believed that within the next
day or two the general price will
be at least that much.
Summr squash are on the mar
ket at the general price of eight
cents pound. The average weight
is little over two pounds.
Apricots will be cleaned up pret-
ty well by the end of this week.
Housewives who have delayed
canning should get their orders
in tomorrow.
Watermelon has taken slight
rise but will i, be reduced within

Red Cross Health Hints
No. 6 CANCER

Cancer in America is one Of the
major causes of death. Statistics
indicate that cancer is Of great
frequency at ages over 40 then
tuberculosis, pneumonia, or ty-
phoid fever, and that an average
of one woman In eight and one
man in fourteen over 40 years OF
age dies of cancer, and the disease
has shown an increase of late
years.
Cancer is no respector of per-
sons, attacking rich and poor i'm
partially.
At the beginning the disease
starts as local malady and lie
easily cured if recognized as such
given proper treatment in time.
Speed means life in the cure OF
cancer, for If let alone all cases
will end in death.
Danger signs are usually locat-
ted in some unhealthy spot or at
site of some irritation on the skin,
such as a wart, mole, lump, or a
scab. If the cancer begins within
the body constant indigestion and
loss of weight may be regarded
as a dang\. silt. At first no
pain whatever accompanies the
disease.
If ony lump or mark on the
body becomes sore or changes In
appearance, especially all Jumps
on the breast, go to doctor for
an examination. 1t Is too late for
certainty of cure to wait until
you are sure it is cancer.
The only cure for the malady Is
| to remove trace of the disease
and medicines which relieve pain
do not have any appreciable effect
on the disease itself, simply delay
ing the treatment.
A surgical operation Is the only
sure way to cure cancer, and bes'
chances for recovery lie in an
early operation. The danger o.
certain death increases with eacf
"a hours of delay.
