COUNTY QUEEN COMMITTEES

l ne IolloWInB liStS or county CuiH- mittees have already selected the ! queens to represent their counties at the semi i-centennial celebration and when Presidont Harding and Mrs. Harding will come to Birmingham. There are 47 here listed and committees are at work In some of the others, but they have not yet gone far enough to assure success of their plans
 Plans for Jefferson county are be- ing formulated and the selection of the queen will be made known at an early date. She will not be chosen by ballot, there not being sufficient time for this and since the Jefferson county queen will not compete in the contest for Queen of the Semi Centennial" 1t was not necessary to choose her by popular vote. She will have to act as the host and for that reason she will be selected by representative.
 The girls selected thus far ani those who are In the lists yet to be selected are among the leading girls of their counties, thus assuring the high tone of the contest. The most beautiful and most representative girls of each county will be pres ent.
 The interest in the counties Is remarkable. It far surpasses the hopes of the committees.
 The young women will meet Pres ident and Mrs. Harding with the ex. ecutive corsmittee and a few others when the President arrives at the Terminal station. They will ride in the parade near him. They will be guests of honor at the dinner given the President at the Country club Wednesday evening, October 26, and will later attend the ball accom- panied by prominent Birmingham men, members of the Junior Cham Der. However, those who deslre to make engagements with other friends are at liberty to do so. They will each ride in beautifully decorated auto mobile accompanied by two maids one from the volunteer relief and another prominent young woman of Birmingham. They will appear at the exposition Friday evening and one of their number who has receiv- ed the most votes during the week will be crowned Queen of the Semi Centennial" This will be followed by ball for the visiting queens at the Tutwiler or the Country club.
