Street Parade Helps Business,
 Say Merchants

It begins to appear that if cir GUS doesn't give free parade in the downtown districts. it might as well prepare to not be issued license to perform.
 For drive. natfona1 in scope, of civic heads and committees, is about to be opened, refusing to issue such license unless circuses kick across and give the kids and other folks who want to be reminded of their childhood thrill.
 Merchants also say that 1t helps their business because 1t brings peo- pie Into town early and gives them a chance to do needful shopping.
 The circus parade. 1t is declared, is an American institution and to abol- ish it would be nothing short of a calamity.
 Parade Here
 Many of the circuses including the Sells-Floto, which is in Birmingham today and to which the Age- Herald IS entertaining, in conjunction with the circus management. 200 disabled soldiers, do give parades, as we'll as the John Robinson. Hagenback- Wal lace and others. Their managements have announced they have no inten- tion of abolishing the spectacle so productive of interest and fun for the whole people.
 The matter is absolutely in the hands of the municipalities. They can refuse. and quite rightly in most peoples opinion. any license to any circus that wants to act the stingv skate and not let everybody admire the elephants, lions and tigers, and scream themselves hoarse with laugh ter at the performing clowns.

RADIO CONCERTS
 ARE DISCONTINUED.
Pending Installation of New Station Concerts Tenn
 porarily Suspended

The Alabama Power company an nounced yesterday that pending the installation of it's new super powered radiophone broadcasting station it's regular musical concerts, which here tofore have been broadcasted on Mon day wednesday and Friday evenings will be discontinued
 However, the daily market news, which is broadcast at 3 o'clock and the chapel services, which are con- ducted on Sunday evenings, will con tinue uninterrupted, the Matthews Electric Supply company having do- mated the use of their broadeasting station for this purpose.
 In speaking of the discontInuance of their concerts for the present. an official of the power company said:
 I've announced sometime ago that we would install a new high powered station at the Loveman. Joseph and Loeb department store. Materials for this new station are now arriving and will beN installed as rapidly as possibls. We hope to be able to have this station In operation on or about November 1.
 I've find that itNwill be impossible to maAG the anu to Son- tinue our regular concerts at the same time without materially affecting the quality of the music broadcast. It is cur ambition and aim to give the raido fans of the country qality of entertainment second to none in America.
 I've have already completed our new studio, and it is said to be one of the best ever constructed. With our new high-powered and modern station, located on the top of the Loveman, Joseph and Loeb building, 1t will be possible for us to render a service that our listeners will ap- preciate and enjoy.
 we feel quite sure that the radio fans, who have been listening in on "w s Y's" programs, will appreciate our efforts to improve the quality of entertainment, and we earnestly ask their indulgence during the next three weeks. during which time our entire force will be- working night and day installing our new station"

SAVAGE IMPROVES
 MERRY WIDOW
Producer to Bring Tuneful Revival to Jefferson This
 Week

Henry w Savage of Now England family. college bred and with keen business acumen, stands out with a vivid personality among theatrical producers as one who does things worth while in the matter of giving the public theatrical offerings of d higher order.
 Perhaps the outstanding sensation among his offerings is The Merry Widow" that created a world wide furore IS years ago and which has been revived by this producer on a scale of magnificence never dreamed of at the time of its original pre- sentation.
 This new production of the fas- chatting Lehar operetta, which is promised at the Jefferson theatre on Friday, for three performances, has created more of a stir in its newest presentation than 1t did originally. It is even more prodigal in it's em- bellishments, with scenery by Joseph Urban. and costumes by Peggy Hoyt, and an excellent cast.

STUDENT PAPER SEEKS
 INCREASE IN CIRCULATION

An effort Is on foot to increase the circulation of the Howard Col lege Crimson. weekly paper edited and published by the student body of Howard college, by getting every Howard alumnus to become a sub scriber.

This has been accom- plished at least partly by the papers progressive policy of encouraging the students, themselves. to write ap the events of their activities. In this manner the Crimson not only en- livened the students interest in the paper, but also offered helpful CO., operation to the English department in it's efforts.
