LABOR RESENTS
 AFFILIATIONS OF LOCAL MINISTERS

Resolutions have been passed by the Birmingham Trades council wherein imputations of ministers that the daughters of the working class of people of the city are not as chaste and pure as those of the class attend ing private dances in clubs, hotels and private homes of the city are resented.
 The council likewise favors the opening of Pershing pier for public dancing.
 The resolutions are:
 Whereas. in view of the fact that statement has been made that labor Is not in favor of pub lie dancing at East Lake park; and,
 Whereas, Commissioner Will liam l.. Harrison has adopted the view that public dancing Is not detrimental to the morals Of our community and has advocated the opening of Pershing pier at East Lake park for dancing purposes under strict supervision; and,
 Whereas, the delegates to the Birmingham Trades council are not in accord with the sentiment expressed by certain preachers of Birmingham churches that prop erly supervised dancing tends to lower the morals of young peo- pie; therefore, be it
 Resolved, that We resent the imputation that the daughters of tho working class of people of our city are not as chaste and pure as those of the class who attend private dances In the clubs, hotels and private homes of the city, or that theiP-inclina- tion to immortality is greater than those of the more favored class: and be it further
 Resolved, that the Birming- ham Trades eounil favors the opening of Pershing pier at East Lake park for public dancing. under proI CT supervision. be- lieving that such amusement is entirely proper, and under no cir cumstances will tend to increase immortality or lower the moral tone of the young people of our city who will attend such dances.

PAULINE FREDERICK AT

Few actresses, it is said. would have had the courage to attempt 10 create a role, or rather roles, as dif- ficult and exacting as those which Miss Frederick so masterfully DOT trays in Salvage" her most recent Robertson-C Cole production, which will be shown at the Five Points tne- atre today only.
 In this drama Miss Frederick is seen in two distinctly different char acterizations as Bernice Ridgeway, woman of strong character and pow erful personality; and as Kate Mar : tin, a pitiful wreck of humanity, sod den, bitter. with every fine instinct of a real woman crushed and obiit- erated, living out her existence in great city's slum.

in these gatherings which are made up of
the class which has always been beggars
and knows nothing else of life.
Tea is served regularly at the beggars

Late in the day or during the evening
substantial food is served, the beggars
paving the boss beggar in kind, or with
& few rubles, for whatever they may
eat from the mess. The boss beggar does
not actually beg himself. his chief du-
ties being to cook the food brought by
the others and to carry to and from
their places of work" some of the beg
gars unable to walk or crawl because of
their dcformities.
When a beggar's feast is at its height,

purpose of raising funds to fight tuber-
culosis. Each year there has been an
increase i'm tho number of seals sold. I'M
til last year over -. O0O0 600 was collected

mittee of the tuberculosis association
decided to endeavOr to raise all the funds
needed By the tuberculosis association
at one time instead of having the seal

campaign in the spring. The members
of this committee are: F. \. How land
