 When old Mister Hokus put the lock in Raggedy Anns pocket, he whispered to her. I'm going to lock the lock two times so that we will al- ways be two times good friends
 RaGgedy Ann laughed as Mister Hokus locked the lock two times and then she said, Now, I'll bet a nickel, Mister Hokus, that you are two times as good at magic as you were before. !. Just try to magic something and see"
 Won't it be nice if l really am a magician?' old Mister Hokus cried. T can think of a great many nice things to magic already. First, be- lieve l will see If I can magic some ice cream cones. for 1t has been all most ten minutes since we had dinner, and l know you must all be getting hungry"

ASK OLD CLOTHES TO AID SUFFERING
 NEAR EAST CHILDREN
Any Article Welcomed At Des- ignated Depots Thursday
 And Friday

Birmingham, In keeping with the
 rest of the country, Thursday and
 Friday is expected to dig into It's col
 lective clothes closet and pull out all
 the old duds that are going to waste
 and turn them in to one of 9 receiv-
 ing stations scattered over the greater city for the benefit of the des
 titute of the Near East
 This, literally and figuratively, is i exactly what is expected of Birming-
 ham, and if several carloads of old i clothes are not shipped when the i campaign is over. w. M. Howe, re- i gional director for the Near East work. with headquarters in the Jeff ferson County Bank building, will be a disappointed man.
 Coming, as this appeal does. in the beginning of the summer Of the year, We can well afford to part with some clothes that are not old" said MT, Howe, "but when you consider that we are asking for any kind of old clothes-ragged shirts, old. fadded skirts ragged suits. frayed overcoats, dilapidated hats, worn -out underwear and even run Gwn -at-the-heel shoes Just anything that has been dis carded-you will understate the des- porateness of the situation in the Near East, where humanity's call is the greatest today"
 MT. Howe empha sized that the "old clothes drive" would be held only two days-Thursday and Friday-and that two days are considered suffi- cient to take Birmingham over the top with at least two carloads. Re- ceiving stations have been designated | in every section Cf the city and are as follows:
 Pizitz Department store, Steele Smith Dry Goods company; Summers Transfer and Storage company, 5509 second avenue, East Lake; Woodlawn Presbyterian church; c.

ALCAZAR SHOWS THRILLER
"TraiIinE African Wild Animals" AL
 most Cost Three Lives

The rhinoceros has a one-tracl< mind, four speeds forward, and no reverse. He also has an uncertain temper, ranging to temporary insani- ty dislike for white people in general, a sharp horn situated far forward and couple of tons of bulk to back it. When he charges, he burns the breeze, and shivering na- tives are plainly to be seen in the foliages of the topmost trees for miles around.
 But MT. and Mrs. Martin Johnson stod up to rhino with a motion pie ture camera and gun. They stood while the rhino snorted and they stood still while he charged. and If Mrs. Johnson had not hit the ami nal at the base of the horn with an express bullet, there would have been no picture, nor yet any MT. and Mrs. Johnson.

 Now I will show you something else! See how short my beard is :? Well. Real for sure magicions should have real long boards. At least, all the magicians in fairy stories do. So 1 shall grow myself a real long beard. and while I am waiting for it to grow l will shake out from the cone, three more ice cream cones apiece!"
