two houses and the remodeIing of
the facade will be expensive. Con-
gress has appropriated $500, 900 for
reInodeling and furnishing, but
does; not include silver plate and
other accessories, so there is now
suggestion that rooms in the
permanent embassy might be
named after various States, and
that the furnishings in rhe Re
rooms be contributed by the States
after which they are named. 1t
is believed that the necessary

ENSLEY BUREAUl THE AGF-HERALD !

Sixty-five happy youngsters had luncheon Thursday as guests of the Ensley Kiwanis club. After it was all over the question was debatable as to whether the boys or the Xii wanians had the best time The boys vowed they did. while D. P. Knapp, Albert Smith, Roy Keener Matthews, Bill Turnipseed and others maintained that the grownups en- joyed it most.
 Kiwanis club in Ensley has there been arranged more pleasing party than the one Thursday when the youngsters came to break bread with the grownup boys of Ensley. They came from various schools, where some of them are hitting the line hard to get through while others cry the daily papers on the streets of Ensley, while yet others find pro- tection within well sheltered homes.
 Permission of pr. c. B. Glenn, su- perintendent of schools, was secured for the boys and they dropped into the Methodist church exactly on time. There each member of the club was assigned boy. They were in- troduced protecting arm was placed across a youthful shoulder and the idea was to have good time. The luncheon was served by the ladies of the Ensley Highlands CnurCn WHO QTONlQeu LH6 D6Sl l UT key available and that in abundance There was also the usual fixing for the old bird and later came ice cream and cake.
 Guests were introduce1 by their individual hosts, each rising and pre- senting his chap to, the club. There happened to be four or five young sters more than Kiwanians and 1t was a scramble to see which member of the club would take one or two or all of them. They were placed a dozen times in the scramble. At the introduction each Kiwanian pre- sented the boy with him some re- membrance. There were knives ga- lore, handkerchiefs, candy, fruit in boxes, ties, cuff buttons, pistols and money given during the affair.
 The only address was that of Rev. Frank Mcdonald, pastor of the Eff ty-seventh Street Baptist church of Woodlawn, a Scotchman, and he en- tertained the boys with a simple yet brilliant address in which the keen eyed youngsters evidenced the great est interest.
 Following the address of Dr. Mo Donald, the boys noticed Dr. c. B. Glenn, superintendent of schools, present, and it was necessary that he be called upon for a short talk. He told an ideal boy story and was given rounds of applause. There followed two pr three songs led by Rev. Will liam H. Mansfield, which made hit with the boys, all of them join ing in. The president of the club, w. H. Turnipseed, introduced the ladies serving the luncheon and with a benediction by Rev. Keener N Matthews, the session came to an end.
