Miss Chisolm Is To Direct Girl Scout
 Troops

Birmingham is to have the pleas ure of having Miss Corinne Chisholm, who formerly made her home here, as regional secretary of this district for Girl Scouts. Miss Chisolm will arrive on Monday and will start work immediately, getting the scout movement well under way and form ing new troops. A number of rooms have been offered as a place to hold headquarters office, but no decision has as yet been made, as Miss Chis- elm will decide on them when she ar riVes.
 It Is a great feather in Birming- hams cap that she was chosen by the National Girl Scout board as the location for the headquarters of this district, which comprises Alabama. Louisiana, Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi, instead of Memphis, New Orleans, on some other city.
 Miss Chisolm instructed in the Girl Scout work at the University summer school and at the Montevallo summer session. At each she instructed an average of 80 students. These 12O students were fitted to be captains and leaders in the troops.
 Already Mrs. John Coleman. who Is a leader in the Girl Scout movem ent, has received numerous calls from
 
 scout troops to be formed, and has received letters from many young women, who desire to be scout cap- tains. In order to be captain, be- sides the essential instruction, it Is necessary for the candidate to be 21 years old or over. Many girls, who are qualified to do the work of cap tain, but have not yet reached the age limit will have the opportunity of working with the troops as lieu tenants.
 The schools and colleges of Bir- mingham are planning to have regu- lar supervised troops, formed as a part of the cirrfculum, the students to receive school credit for the work done in the troops.
 The plans for the year are very wonderful and promise much for the future of the young girls ot Birming- ham. There will be rally early in the fall for all of the troops in Jeff ferson county, at which time Miss Chisholm and other speakers will talk to the captains, lieutenants, and members of the Girl Scouts. Those who went to. the state camp at Winnataska, Ala, this year, and those who went to the national camp at Cloudland, Ga. received great in- spiration and help for. the coming year. The principles for which Girl Scouts stand were taught and proc ticed along with the interesting ex- periences of camp life.

Qui ViUe Club To Study European DramatiSts
 Coming Year

Tho program committee of the Qui Viye club. with Mrs. George W. Hughes as chairman, have presented a delightfully."- instructive calendar for the season of 1923-24.
 The members of the club are pro- viding themselves with copies Of Brander Matthews "Chief European Dramatists," as text books. The study contemplated forms an expansion or the previous years study of Ffench literature, guided by lectures by pr. John c, Dawson, president of Howard college.
 . The club meets bi-monthly at the homes of the various members. Fol lowing the plan of the previous year. one of thAse meetings is given over entirely to a lecture on a given suD- ject by Dr. J. C. Dawson. At the meeting following the lecture the subjects are dissembled and discussed. giving ample consideration to social and civic influences upon the times presented, as well as literary value.
 The lectures by pr. Dawson are literary and historical gems, and it seems @ pity that they are, of neces- sity, confined to the club membership only.
 One of the programs for this year will be in the form of dramatic read ings, given by Mrs. G. Wallace Jack son. Mrs. F. s. Dunlap and Mrs. J. P. Moore, whose training along dramatic lines gives promise of a real treat.
 The Qui Vive club is alert to every state and civic duty, and Is actively and financially interested in the na tional and state Federation of Wom- ems Clubs, national child labor com mittee. Red Cross, nti-Tuberculosi5, Neighborhood House. Health Educa- tion, Library and propaganda against the sale and use of fire arms.
 The Qui Vive club Is looking for ward to one of the most interesting years of its 1S-yearold existence, with Mrs. N. L. Bagley as president. The initial meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Mason Martin, De- tober 5. pr. J. c. Dawson will lec- ture. His subject will be, "The Age of Pericles.
 The officers of the Qui vive club are: President, Mrs. N. L. Bagley; vice president, Mrs. c. W. Jackson; secre- tary, Mrs. Augustus Forrest; treas- urer, Mrs. E. B. Henry; auditor, Mrs. G. W. Hughes; critic, Mrs. A. NJ. Holt; parliamentarian Miss Mary Robinson; chairman special club effort, Mrs. D. J. Rowe; custodian scrap book. Mrs. N. C. Glass.
