DISTINGUISHED VISITOR
 AND SPEAKER


 Few things that the Eisterhood of Temple Emanu-El have undertaken have offered more interest or prom ised more inspiration than the ex- pected visit of Mrs. NJ Thorner for their next meeting, which will be held February at Temple Emsnu-El at 8 o'clock.
 Mrs. Thornsr is a resident of Jer- sey City and some conception of the magnitude of her mind and work can be gained from the fact that she is one of the few Jewish women who have successfully conducted Sabbath services in the temples. Recently she occupied the pulpit in Reading, Pa, and proved an intellectual and spirit ual treat to all that had the privilege of hearing her.
 MrA Thorner, will arrive in Bir- mingham on February 6 and will be ths guest of Mrs. Avery Joseph, pres ident of ths local Sisterhood. at her home In Hanover circle, during her brief mtay
