that by some wireless ray only known

The fact that President Coolidge re-

Washington at the White House and
that the American government invited
him to the funeral of the late Presi-
dent Harding are interpreted In official
circles as indicating the early resump-

Birmingham Frater- nifty In Education
 Organized

The Birmingham Fraternity in Education held it's November meeting Thursday morning at the Y. W. c. A. The fraternity is of particular inter est in that it fills a place and a need filled by no other organization in Birmingham. It arose from a spon- taneous demand, an ever-present need among mothers who take their moth erhood seriously and are confronted with the inevitable problem of the child, his individuality. his character development, his potential faculties and powers. It hopes to justify it's existence by the aid it can give all those perplexed with the innumer- able problems of the young. Its Ideals may be briefly stated as fol- lows:
 l. Reverence for the Individuality of the child and the development of this Individuality through the disci- pline of love, the opportunity for self-discipline and f-government, coeducation, a vital moral and spiri- tual education, the substitution of cooperation for competition, definite training in citizenship and emphasis on the development of character and faculty rather than upon the accumu- lation of facts
 2. Recog ognition of the dignity, honor and nobility of the teaching vocation.
 3. Pioneer work in educational methods
 4, Closer local, national and inter- national cooperation among teach CTS. students, parents and educational associations.
 ,. Provision for the continuous ed ucation of all individuals throughout adult life as well as through child hood.
 In carrying out these ideals, the fraternity hopes to be of practical value along lines of child psychology, child feeding and hygiene, sex edu- cation for children, literature for children. character building, training for citizenship. It hopes that moth CTS who are interested in any of these child problems will feel free to call upon the fraternity for help along the lines in which it works, whether they be members or not. In spite of the small membership fee of 50 cents per year, the fraternity hopes to establish 8 comprehensive free circulating library on subjects per taining to education and child wei fare. and to present at intervals com potent educational workers on the 1 lecture platform. The officers of the | Birmingham fraternity, which holds a charter in a national and interna- tional organization are: President, | Mrs w G. Montgomery; vice presi- dent, Mrs. k. w. Brawner; secretary treasurer, Mrs. E. E. Halmer

THE QUEST CLUB
 AND ITS RITRAL SCHsyuL

As the letter from the federation secretary has gone out to each fed- erated club urging that 1t take on rural school as protege, assuming toward the school the part of big sister, the Quest club canmost heartily recommend the plan as one which will prove of mutual benefit and pleasure to both the school and the club, be- cause such has been the experience of the Quest club which for fifteen years of it's twenty-five yemrs' ex istence has made a practice of as suming just this relationship to some rural school The Pleasure Valley school has for the past few years been the object of Its kindly interest receiving from the club always a Christian treat, magazines for cir culation, school books for use and money to buy school books. Last year the teacher of the Pleasure Valley school, at the invitation of the chairman of the committee, Mrs, Hor- ace Adams, brought goodly number of the pupils to one of the club meetings and gave a program that would have done credit to any school; in this way the club members made the personal acquaintance of the pu-1 pils in whom they had been interest,"
 ed and from whom they had re- ceIved notes of appreciation when on special occasions gifts had been sent them,
 Cards for the Thanksgiving season are alwaya. sent as the beginning of the school terms club activities,
 The trustees of this school have been kind enough to act as go-be- tweens, stopping by the home of the chairman to cart out to the school at stated intervals magazines and books which the ladies collect among themselves. or the Christmas tree commodities and no matter how busy the members of the Quest club may be at the holiday season they feel that the privilege of helping to make the Pleasure Valley school Chri stmas entertainment an ecca- sion to look forward to with pleasure by the pupils more than compensates for the expenditure of both time and money.
