CHILDREN WEEK
 OBSERVED HERE
Dr.. Henry M. Edmond's Beau tifA Sermon Delivered
 to Children

Children's Week be ing observed internationally April 30 to May is the feature this week of the program of the Independent Presbyterian church. Nothing has been left un- done by Mrs. James Hood and her committee to make this a week of pleasure for the children and one of education and inspiration for the parents.
 Dr. Henry NJ. Edmonds, pastor of the Independent church, preached a beautiful sermon Sunday morning to the children of his gregation. The parents had been prepared for his message by splendid array of educational posters that placarded the walls of the vestibules of the temple, and by personal letters that had been written them during the week by the Sunday school workers.
 The church calendar was dedicated to the children. It carried to the parents many striking messages bearing on the importance of child life in the home, church and com- munity. The race moves forward on the feet of little children" was the keynote of the calendar.
 Tuesday and Wednesday after moons of this week the parents will be assembled at Temple Emanu- El to witness demonstrations of Sunday school methods in the various depart ments connected with work with children. The cradle roll and pri- mary departments will meet on Tues day at 3:30, and the junior and be- ginners' departments will give their demonstration Wednesday afternoon at the same hour. All of the Sunday school children will be present that the parents may see exactly what is done at Sunday school on Sunday mornings.
 Monday and Thursday will be vis- iting days, when the Sunday school teachers and superintendents will visit in the homes of all the chill dren. Friday afternoon at the home of Mrs, B. G. Copeland on Fairylew circle, the children will be given party with ponies to ride, a monkey and grind organ, tents to play h. dian in, etc On Saturday morning all of the children will be taken to see the motion picture, "penrod," thus concluding the weeks eelebra- tion.

" .
 To the Atlanta better films com mittee belongs the honor of calling the first conference for better films which met Friday in the beautiful new auditorium of the Woman's club Mrs. E. M Boykin, chairman of the better films committee. presiding. There were more than 250 in at
 tendance, with representatives from 10 states.
 Telegrams of greeting and assur- ances of cooperation were read from producers of motion pictures, the
 Pathe company, Lasky corporations
 First National company, Goldwyn, David w. Griffith and others. Their message was in substances: We are with you and wish to give you what you want"
 Mrs Boylin, in opening the meet ing. said: Better films associations
 are to educate the public to the fact
 that the demand of the people in fluences the selection by the exhib- itors. We can have the best pictures if we want them"
 James l.. Key, mayor of Atlanta, extended a cordial welcome to the visitors and spoke of the Atlanta
 Woman's club as more than an insti- tuition. as an expression of the high est type of the womanhood of At lanta, ready to serve in all civic mat ters.
 Orrin G. Cooke of New York city
 secretary of the national committee | for better films, stressed the fact that all were interested in people | just folks, that people need amuse- ment, thrill and excitement. It Is just as important as the air, sleep food or ideals. In motion pictures
 we must have two standards, that oi
 the public, fair, tolerant and con
 structive. and the personal standard
 higher than that of the public, ac- quota of people can decide the pub | lie standard No one person can bt
 omniscient in regard to motion pic. i lures or on any other subject. The
 national board is eager to learn, tc
 know what other people think. The unit for expressing opinion has be
 come the town or city. There are C50 better films committees in tho United States and the national board
 has 1850 correspondents working constructively; 150 volunteers in New Ork are reNleWlnS Iuotiou pittuicS We must give the people the kinc
 of things that they like. We &r

 The public must recognize thF ac'
 that many pictures are for E edlts only and that children unde1 dc
 not belong in the mollon ' Scturt theatres except when the Ahtures | for juveniles are being pG,sented The local exhibitors are d socia force. We should co-opera4e witt

 can preach better sermon in Il
 minutes than any minister car preach in an hour and a half. Every l city needs photoplay guide pub lished once month. Motion picture
 machines are needed in all our In. stitutions. All the above facts were | made clear by Mir. Cooke.

Charles F. Wood Wants Him to Get Right Regarding Warrior

Challenging the reported statement of Senator Lenroot charging that the Warrior river served only the people of one state and inviting him to come to Alabama as his guest and see the Warrior and sense it's usefulness at Warrant Export and Discount cor roration. has written the statement in part as follows:
 T take the liberty of enclosing herewith some data bearing on War rior transportation written by the Industrial Editor of The Birmingham Age-Herald in the Community Col umn" this morning. I also inclose you a map showing the application of the freight rate dlfferentia1s by the Warrior barge line. You will note therefrom that the barges are already serving parts of four states instead of Alabama only, and there is no reason why the service should not be widely extended and reach much further than Atlanta on the east.
 Instead of limiting this service as you are advocating doing, the ser vice should be widely extended, and the extension should have your sup port and influence along with others holding influential positions in our government. so as to make 1t what if should be.

Members of the Scotti Grand Oper l company headed by Antonio Scotti,
 and including Orville Harold. Anna Roselie, Alice Gentle. Morgan Kings ton, Greek Evans, Manuel Salazar,
 Renato zanelli, Queena Mario and
 Lillian ogden. arrived in Birming- ham yesterday from Atlanta, where the company, as a part of the Metro
 politan Grand Opera company, has just completed a weeks run. The stars were accompanied by the or chestra and others which made the
 number in the party reach about 150 persons.
 The party, which requires four Pullmans and three baggage ears to transport them, arrived in Birmng- l ham about 5:30 o'clock on the regular Seaboard train. to which their cars were attached.
 A large delegation of citizens of | Birmingham and prominent music
 lovers and friends of the singers met the train and escorted the stars to the Tutwiler. where they are regis tered during their stay of two days. Four operas are to be given dur | ing the Scotti engagement here. On this afternoon, La Boheme' will be presented, while tonight "Tosca," {" | known to lovers of opera as perha ps the most characteristic of the mu- | sical dramas of the renaissance. will hold forth. On Tuesday at the mati- nee, Carmen" perhaps the best known of all operas, will be pre- sented. The engagement will close with tomorrow nights performance, when "Pagliacci" will be offered. While in the city the singers and
 other members of the party will be entertained by local music devotees.

 California Benefits
 "Tax payers in the cities of Cali fornia are today profiting by reason of lower rates on the heavy tonnage carried by the Warrior river, and cities have been extended and their citizens served with pure water and sanitary appliances, which they could not have had, except that, un- der the low rates at which we are able to reach them with our ton rage; these necessary conveniences came within the limits of the ap- propriation made to pay for such ap- pliances.

Echoes Of Better Film
 Conference at Aflanta

tributed this to the cooperation of the school officials. When a picture Is presented that Is especially ap propriate for children, the teachers take the children en masse to the theatre and their attendance counts on their English work
 Mrs. Alonzo Richardson told of the Atlanta plan. A survey was made in Atlanta also to secure facts in re- gard to attendance, types of pictures and why some especially good ones were financial failures, reaction of the public to classes of pictures, pub . lie selection and the attitude of the exhibitors. Their plan is to encour- age, foster and promote clean, wholesome family pictures; to work for photoplays in institutions, and to promote good pictures in rural dis tricts. Corra Harris was quoted as saying: We need Sunday afternoon pictures in country churches" Twen- ty-eight per cent of the pictures pro- cuced in 1921 were suitable for chill dren. Thirteen per cent of the chill dren attended. In order to bring this 2S per cent and Is per cent together, in Atlanta children's Saturday morn- ing matinees were started and have been a great success. Once a week is often enough for child to go to a movie
 Mrs. Charles J. Sharpe of Birming- ham delighted the audience with her description of Hollywood and it's mo- tion picture celebrities.
 II. Turner Jones of the Southern Enterprises company. stated that public taste is the greatest obstacle of the exhibitors. who can give the public better films. but cannot make it take them.
 After a general discussion lunch was served in the main club build ing.
 Senator Ashurst at lunch told an amusing story of being on a train one day and was apparently consid- cred of no importance until some one mistook him for Douglas Fairbanks. and immediately he found himself to be the center of attraction. This in cident awakened him to the signfi- canoe of the motion pictures.
 In closing, the conference adopted the principle of selection rather than censorship. Out of all those in at tendance. not one advocated state censorship.

 IVY LEAF AND PIPER
 COAL co. and ask the people of Birmingham to give that company the patronage and confidence we have enjoyed for more than generation.
 We have been in the retail coal business for over thirty years and during that time we have built the business from modest beginning to one of large proportions on foundation of full weight and fair dealing. In fact, our slogan GOOD-TON-FULL-TON- RUSH-TON" = is today household word in Birmingham.
 The expansion of our other department is de- handing the exclusive attention of the manage nent. Hence the sale of our retail coal business and the transfer of our good will to the Ivy Leaf and Piper Coal Company who have been our hon. orable competitors for many years.
 Knowing this company as we do we do not hesitate to vouch for their good faith, and can as sure our retail coal customers, many of whom . have been with us from the beginning, that they can safely transfer their patronage and allegiance !. to our successors As this transaction detaches us absolutely from the retail coal business, we feel free to raise the curtain on the profiteering imputed to the retail coal dealers by portion of the public and stressed so often in the news and editorial col . uIIlllS Ol IHo press. We, therefore, state that from the year 1915 to the present time profit on all the coal handled through retail department ha. averaged TWO AND ONE-TENTH CENTS PER TON,
 Nevertheless, we part from our retail coal bus iness with genuine regret. It has been the medium through which we have made many friends.
 We again ask the good people of Birmingham to stand behind our successors as they have stood by us.
