 She looked definitely at Andrew. who made no reply.
 You are gadding around down town all day, and then when night comes and I have a right to expect you to come home and amuse me you go out to some man thing and leave me here alone or else you sit around and pore over the sporting pages of the newspaper"
 She paused again for a reply.

This is a wonderful week for Con federate veterans, for their sons and their daughters.
 For 1t will mark. on Sunday, the celebration of Decoration Day. when 100 Confederate crosses will be erected over the graves of those who fought for the south.
 As a fitting prologue to these com memorative services, Wilcox chapter. United Daughters of the Confederacy, yesterday gave a brilliant and inspi- rational reception which marked to it's members the most important time since the formation of their organi- zation.
 It celebrated the changing of their name.
 For Confederate President
 Henceforth this organization will call itself by the grandest name the south and Alabama know-Jefferson Davis.
 How beautiful was the throng of youth and age which met at the Blue Triangle club for this memorable oc- casion. Gray haired men and women. fathers and mothers and boys and girls were there.
 There were songs to inspire the hearers to the memory of deeds per formed by men who loved the south better than they loved their lives; speeches which breathed the love in which the Confederates are held. Mrs. W. c. Hornsby sang two numbers, as did Miss Rebecca Basemore, the mu- sical program finding continuation in the song, Garry Me Back to Old Virginny."
 Half a hundred persons were pres ent at the meeting, which was opened with prayer by Dr. OHara. The well come address was made by the chap ter's president, Mrs. Charles Donoho, who declared in part:
 After we had decided on the new name for our chapter we felt so proud that we could not be satisfied until we had gathered the veterans and daughters to rejoice with us. We feel we can do more effective work for the cause that we represent when we think of our chapters name and the great man it memorializes.
 No Finer Home
 What other name could we have chosen that would have been as great and grand as that of Jefferson Davis, the only President of the Confed- eracy?
 Such 6 man as he was! All the eulogies of song and story could never tell of his greatness. First of

BURGESS BED-
 TIME STORY
TWO HAPPY BEARS. (By Thornton ". BurgeSs.)
A stomach filled; desire gained Thus happiness is oft attained

A stomach filled; desire gained
 Thus happiness is oft attained.
 Old Mother Nature.
 In all the Green Forest and on all the Green Meadows the happiest little people to be found anywhere were Boxer and Woof Woof, the two little Bears. Where were they? They were In Farmer Browns sugar house You know that if there Is anything a Bear will run almost any risk for 1t is sweets. No boy or girl ever longed for candy as Bear does for any thing sweet And here in Farmer Browns sugar house was more sweet ness than Boxer and Woof Woof had dreamed could be In all the Great World
 Boxer had discovered big pailful of soft maple sugar. With one arm around that pail he sat down and be- gan to scoop that sugar out with his ether paw and cram 1t into his mouth as fast as he could. Never in all his life had he tasted anything so good. This is what he was doing when Woof Woof entered.
 Of course, Woof woof made straight for Boxer and the pail ot sugar. But Boxer had no intention of sharing that sugar with any one He was selfish. Yes, sir, he was selfish. The instant Woof Woof came near enough Boxer still holding fast to the pail of sugar with one paw, other. Instantly Woof Woof lost her temper and struck back. Now, Wool Woof had both paws free while Boxer had one arm around that pail of sugar. Over he went on his back still clinging to the pail of sugar. Opf voprad fba sticky stYpar all over him.
 Woof Woof promptly began to eat it as rapidly as she could lick it up. Boxer scra mhled to his feet and right
 vay they forgot about their quarrel. Both licked up that spilled sugar as fast as they could make their tongues go.
 When the sugar was gone they be- gan to look for more. It was Woof Woof who discovered that the evapo- rator was half full of syrup. The sugar had been good. but that syrup smelled better. She plunged an eager little nose into it. Then things hap pened.
 Wow! wo-o-wi Oh! ohw yelled Woof Woof, and tore around that sugar house as if she had suddenly gone crazy. Everything that could be upset she upset. Everything that could be knocked down she knocked down. You see, the syrup was still hot.
 Boxer had been at the other side of the sugar house when this hap pened and he didn't know what to make of it. Being naturally curious he went over to the evaporator him self. His eyes sparkled greedily when he smelled that syrup, ana without waiting an instant he did ex- .actly what Woof Woof had done or course he fared no better than Wool Woof had fared, and with squeals Of pain and rage he, too, began to race around. Finally he found the door and bolted out. His nose and his mouth smarted and he made straight for little pile of snow. He plunged his head into this and took big m>uthful. That made him feel better.
 Actually neither he nor Wool Wool were badly burned. The syrup had not been hot enough for that Presently Boxer went back. He found

 and scowled her fiercest at her own reflection. Then she pulled down the corners of her mouth and twisted her lips this way and that. Next she stared most earnestly at the mole.
 Come over here and fix my face If you don't like It." she said, turning to Andrew.
 He rose gravely and walked over. With his fingers he pinched some laugh wrinkles in the corners of her eyes and then began to brush back the corners of her mouth until she grinned like gwynnplain. Where upon they both laughed heartily, and he kissed her: her eyes, the mole, her mouth.

By LEANDER POOLE

Featured by a menu made up wholly of Spanish dishes. prepared in true Sapnish style. the spanish-Am- eriean club celebrated cervantes day when over SO members sat down to a banquet prepared under the supervi- sion of Mrs. Lillian Parson Carlisle. who has gained considerable distinc- tion as A director of things edible.
 In his opening address of welcome MT. Reams brought to the fore the large area of Spanish speaking coun- tries and the varied resources of the countries represented at the dinner table. It was source or great peas ure to the club that on the occasion of Cervantes anniversary that The Age-Herald carried story of large export business from an Alabama port to Brazil likewise the rushing by rail of large shipment of steel products to Key West for Cuba.
 Following the usual custom each member rose to give in Spanish, his name and business. In responding Miss Mary Riley gave us a new defi- milton of nationalities when she stat ed that she was a Frenchman by way of Cork. The First National bank was represented by Paul Angell. who as said to have found the use of Span 4sh essential in the rapid growing busineEs of the bank with countries Co the south and especially Cuba. Heretofore he has relied on his good friend. MT. Foster. of the Stock ham Pipe Fitting for translations of his Spanish correspondence but it appears that MT. Angel will shortly be able 4n handle his own correspondence.
 Will Go to Spain Soon
 N6r. Foster stated to the club that Dc expected to sail for Spain some time in June, or possibly earlier. to etudy trade conditions there and in made to tho club on his return. Long, myer. the architect, advised the club that similar organizations were gpringing up in the larger cities of the country and that fin a great many of them 1t was found to be a great asset to the business and social life An communities where operated.

Chapter Name Changed
 To Jefferson DaUiS

all, he was a Christian. I have read somewhere that he prayed daily for guidance for his army. He was a scholar. a statesman, a soldier, a commander, a warrior and an honor able man. What more can be said?"
 Others on the program were Miss Huey and Mrs. J. B. Aird, reading There were also number of inn promptu speeches. J. B. Francis, a Confederate veteran. told a story of how he met Mrs. Jefferson Davis once and that she expressed to him: I'll die loving the Confederacy, and all those who love my husband"
 A most interesting member of the gathering was Mrs. Sep Smith, who. as custodian of crosses for the chap ter, will confer those crosses upon Confederate veterans at Woodrow Wilson park Sunday.
 Of particular interest also was the speech by Thomas Dozier, comman- der of the Sons of Veterans. who told the organization that the comman der-in chief of the Sons was anxious to have Birmingham extend an invi- tation to the convention to meet here in 1928. The city commission has heartily approved the idea, said MT Dozier-who will now take up the matter with civic bodies.
 In the Heart
 MT. Dozier set forth:
 Marble slabs will never make known to you veterans the love and esteem we hold for you. Days like this will only symbolize what the Daughters want to show you, as well as the Sons of Veterans. Roosevelt and Wilson say the cause for which you fought was right. If it was wrong to fight for our slaves and a crime to use them in our fields, was 1t not as great a crime for northern CTS to bring them here and sell them to us? Slavery. though, was small part of the cause for the Civil war. We want our Sons and Daughters to know all the true causes-we want those true causes known to the world"
 Judge William E. Fort followed MT Dozier in a pleasing address, in which he, too spoke of the sacrifices of those who followed the gray.
 Mrs. Etta B. Smith of Ensley and Mrs. Yandle of Woodlawn, made short talks and announcements.
 The newly named chapter plans to celebrate Jefferson Davis birthday June 3 in conjunction with the Sons of Veterans. Had Jefferson Davis lived until that day he would have been IA years old.

UNUSALLY GOOD BILL
 AT LYRIC LAST HALF
By EatelIe Beathea Marlowe

AT LYRIC LAST HALF
 Birmingham theatre goers have been availing themselves of a really unusual bill that is at the Lyric for the last half of the week The house has been playing to very near ca pacity at practically every perform ance. The bill is one of the best of the season.
 The headliners. Jones, Elliott and Hockey, are all artists of old stand ing and their number goes over well. Hobbs. Clark and Dare. are fun farmers of the first order and pre- sent a decidedly unusual comedy act Mattylee Sheppard, assisted by Ed die Fitzgerald at the piano, gives an excellent account of herself. Joe Collins, talking comedian, provides more fun than a barrel of monkeys in pink pajamas. and Sherwin Kelly, who opens the bill, proves herself a good vocalist, and a decidedly un- usual cyelist. There are the usual attractions on the screen.
