 LYRIC PROGRAM
Management Announces Two HeadIiners in Program
 for First Half

The Crisp Sisters with Harry Jans and company. in unique offering of songs. laughter and dances will headline the semi-final bill of this season at the Lyric theatre. The Crisp sisters will offer some smart dances with changes of wardrobe that will startle the eyes and they will be ably assisted by Harry Jans in songs and batter that will pro- vide a quarter of an hour of high class entertainment We do not think the above act will take all the honors EIther. as Ned Nester and olivette Haynes will introduce some thing new and clever in the way of a comedy playlet that should prove equally as popular. The title of this playlet Is Her Guardian" and it is replete with fun, songs and batter put over in real style by these two opponents of comedy and songs.
 For a three act, Weber, Mack and Frazer, known as the Beau Brum- mels of Wall street we will have one full of pep and ginger. These boys are comedians of the first rank with a reputation from coast to coast
 Clay modelling Is one of the fine arts. Every sculptor is clay mold deller. Every statue has been mod elled in clay before it was chiselled in stone or cast in bronze. Clay mode" is an artist sculptor, a claymoddeller. He uses clay on the stage because clay is pliable and when Tn the right hands can be made to produce these figures quickly. "Claymode" has injected some com edy in his act as well as the artistic side of the entertainment and should prove very popular on this bill
 Althea Lucas and company. In an Artistic Triumph, will introduce some decidedly new and novel stunts in acrobatics.

SPECIAL BILL AT
 LOCKWOOD TODAY
Continuous Musical Program by Watson's Famous
 Bell Hops

A musical treat is being offered the patrons and visitors to Edgewood park this afternoon. In the form of free orchestra concerts by the famous Watson's Bell Hops. This famous southern orchestra will give contin- uous program at the mountain resort Sunday afternoon. The management went to the expense of engaging this orchestra for the special Sunday date In order that the music lovers or Birmingham, who do not dance, could hear their wonderful musical pro gram.
 While mentioning the Bell Hops. 1t might be mentioned that they closed their three weeks engagement at the park, but that the management, besieged by requests for them to re- main. went to the enormous expense of persuading the management of the orchestra to cancel bookings that they might play for another weeks dancing program in Dreamland pa vi1ion. They'll play every night this week for the dances. with the ex- ception of Monday night, when on this night Professor George Rectores, for merly of Mir. and Mrs. Vernon Castles school of dancing, will hold his class dances.
 Neptune beach will hold It's real grand. formal opening this afternoon at Edgewood park. and hundreds of swimming devotees will go aut to participate in the real initial pro- gram. and incidentally to dodge the midsummer heat which has now swooped down on Birmingham in earnest, after & week of December weather. The pool has been filled and is overflowing with clear, spark ling. pure well water. This water comes from two artesian wells which thave been bored hundreds of feet deep in the rock-ribbed sides of Shades mountain. The bottom of the pool has been smoothed over with a concrete wash and the bottom is visible throughout, so clear is the water.
 With such ideal bathing conditions existing and the largest concrete swimming pool in the world, Edge wood park will probably play to double the swimming patronage 1t did last summer, when all records were broken from an attendance stand nofnt.

NEED IN AUSTRALIA FOR MORE PEOPLE.
Premier Urges That Those Living There Will Be Bene- fitted by the Influx of
 ''DesirabIes'
By Associated Press

Sydney, N. ;. w., June 3.-Tho paramount need of a greater popula- ton In Australia was stressed in an address here by Prime Minister Hughes who said that it was incon- ceivable for the present population debt
 Australians must show themselves worthy of the great heritage that has been left them by the pioneers of the country" he said.
 They could not develop that herit- age as 1t should be development by the present population in Australia.
 Five million people simply can not do it." he said, and the only chance for Australia's salvation is to make the way easy for a great influx of new population to help bear the burdens. I am not one of those who believe that the fewer people there Are in Australia the better will be the opportunities for advancement for those already here. That is an ut terly failacious doctrine, for the more people there are in a country. the more prosperity there is-up to the point of er-population--the better 1t is for the people of the country and there are better opportunities for in- dlvidual advancement
 Not Rff-Raf
 But at the same time I do not believe that the government or Aus tralia should encourage promiscuous migration. as there is a grave danger of such immigrants gravitating to the already over crowded cities. We want Ieople on the land and no migration policy should operate unless 1t mas this as its main object. We have mil lions and millions of acres of unde- veloped land in Australia that are admirably suited for settlement when the necessary means of communica- ftion Is provided That will require courage and enterprise and the ex- penditure of many millions of pounds =,

 We editors-most of us, at any rate" said MT. Yost. "have not real ized, or have only vaguely realized, that we are members of great and honorable profession which has common interests as well as indiyid- ual interests. We could not act col- lectfvely because we have no means of collective action.
 State Purposes
 ITO visualize newspaper ideals; to set standards of newspaper conduct, which shall not affect that individ ual independence that is essential to newspaper personality. but which may arouse generous emulation for newspaper progress. to promote the dignity and honor of our profession; to maintain it's integrity and it's rights, and defend 1t from unjust at tacks; to establish ethical principles whose recognition and observance will contribute to that public con fidence which is newspapers best asset; to promote the efficiency of our 1abors through the interchange of experience and the discussion by which common problems of editorial management may be solved-all these are purposes to which such an organ ization as we have created can direct its efforts, and in their accomplish ment be of great and lasting value to all of us as members of a high pro- fession, of material benefit to the individual newspapers which ssrve, and increased usefulness for the press as an institution for the promotion of public welfare"
 Describing most metropolitan news paper editors as Anonymous creat- ures" seldom heard of outside their own offices, MT. Yost said they needed to get better acquainted with another.
 Society Organized
 Organization of the society was effected in New York April 25. at a meeting in response to call is- sued by Edward S. Beck of the Chi cago Tribune. Frank I. Cobb of the New York World, Charles H, Dennis of the Chicago News. Herbert R. Gait of the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Joseph Garretson of the Cincinnati Times Star, Erie c. Hopwood of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, George E.. Miller of the Detroit News and Cas- per s. Yost of the St. Louis Globe Democrat. "Ours," said this call. Ifs great and honorable profession, yet, curiously, 1t is the only important profession not nationally organized" The existence and valuable work of the National Editorial association was recognized. but this organization, 1t was stated. did not include the larger city newspapers.
 Adopt Consultation
 The constitution adopted at the meeting in New York declares that 1t is not the purpose of this society tto take from its members one parti- cle of independence of editorial ac- ton" 1t is not to be the instrument of any individual. group or interest. It must have no friends to reward and no enemies to punish.''
 The response to this call was re- markable for tho unanimity of inter est and sympathy expressed by the editors of nearly every important newspaper in the country, according to Mir. Yost. Besides those news papers represented at the New ork meeting, assurances of cooperation came from editors of about 40 other leading dailies. Those at the meeting were in hearty accord with the ex- pressed purpose of the organization
