ALABAMA COLLEGE CONTESTS

The Alabama college at Montevallo
has added this year to it's inter-high
school meet, scheduled for February
2G-2S, 1925, a music contest, comprising
four subjects, piano. violin, cello and
voice. The prizes offered are one $50
scholarship in the college for each of
these four subjects, this amount TO be
applied to the music fees when the
winner enters college.
The college invites all Alabama high
schools to send representatives to en-
ter the contest. This is an excellent
movement to stimulate interest in mu
sic. and may also be of great value to
the young women of the state by bring
ing them together so that they may
come to know each other and what is
being done in various parts of Ala
bama.
This is the first year that music
contest has been held, but Art was in
cluded last year. A trophy is offered
for the best single feature, and will
be awarded to the individual A tro-
ply will be awarded to the school send
ing the best all-round art exhibit.
Last year the Ensley High school won
being awarded the handsome original
picture by Roderick Mckenzie.
Application to enter these contests
must be made before February 20, 1925
and all information will be furnished
by applying to Dean o. G.. Carmichael
general chairman.

formed, as he put it, in the language of
artists, dark background for the light
er events of the occasion.
Much of the credit for the success of
the banquet is due to Mrs. Ethel Car
penter, general chairman of arrange
ments; Miss Hannah Elliot, chairman
of decorations; William Z. Warren,
POSTMASTER. and Edwin d. Torgerson,
chairman of stunts.
The attractive relief of the Allied
Arts that adorned the programs was the
design of Mrs. Carpenter.
Thus fell the curtain on the activ-
tiles Of the Allied Arts club for 1924.
1t will rise again on Monday night,
January 5, 1925, when a charming party
is planned to celebrate the New Yeark.
With the spring will come that splen-
did exhibition of Russian art, for which
Mr.. Louis Pizitz will generously sup
ply display room.

GRAND OPERA ON NEW YEARS

Fora the first time in it's history Biz
mingham will have the pleasure of hear
ing Grand Opera on a holiday, the two
performances on New Years day, New
Years matinee and New Years night of
Fortune Gallo's San Carlo Grand Opera
company de luxe inaugurating this
event, presented by the All-Star course.
The opera will be produced here eX
actly as it was at the Jolson theater
in New York last fall and Tamaki
Miura, the noted japanese prima donna
will sing Madame Butterfly" at the
New Years matinee while Elda Vettori
will sing Leonora in the ever beauti-
full I'll Travatore," on New Years night.
1t is said by the critics that Miura
is peerless as BUTTERFLY; there is no
need for straining at effects for she
knows and feels the true spirit Of the
little japanese maiden and realizes just
what little Cio-cio-san naturally exper-
fenced under the peculiar and pathetic
conditions of the beautiful story, and
her ability to interpret this feeling is
perhaps as natural as it is for water to
flow over cliff. A lovely effect is
the result in each instance.
New Years night Verdi's tuneful
opera, I'll Travatore," will be sung
with the wonderful Italian Prima
Donna Elda Vettori as Leonora. Ma
dame Vettori is regarded as one of the
most finished Of the younger Prima
Donnes, her voice being highly COM
mended by the critics and her acting
equally as remarkable as her voice.

RECORDS BURNED,
 WITNESS CHARGES
Phillips Destroyed Papers On E Lumber Deal, Says Wilson

WASHINGTON, May ,14.-John L. Phillips of Georfia, on trial here on charges of conspiracy in connection with the sale fo government surplus lumber stocks, was accused today by James |. M. Wilson, prosecution witness, of destroying certain records which Will son brought to Washington in June, 1922, before he was summoned by the grand jury investigating the charges.
 Wilson, who testified yesterday that he paid $4,500 as demanded honus for signing q lumber contract, declared he took his records to a hotel where he was visited by Phillips. Together they examined Wilson's documents and from the batch Phillips selected a number, announcing he intended to destroy them, Wilson testified.
 Under cross-examination the witness said he had not objected and had not reported the affair to the hotel authori- ties. Next day, he said, he asked Phil lips for the papers and was told they had been burned in the hotel basement. Government counsel summoned a bell boy and negro fireman employed by the hotel and they testified Phillips had burned a bundle of papers in the hotel furnace. @

GRAIN LETTERS

CHICAGO. May 14.--Wheat: Some long lines reduced on an early upturn. This checked advance. but the market retained firm undertone and appeared to lack only volume of business to make further gains. Cash basis higher, with some hard winter selling Pc better, relative to the futures. Some Kansas adyices said crop had gone backward the past week because of unfavorable weather, and Oklahoma reported heavy crop losses by . storm.
 Corn held within narrow range, with covering by shorts in the distantN futures and continued mild liquidation in the May. The latter lost ground over July. Cash de- mand good basis, firm. Corn planting in Illinois and Indiana said to be retarded by cool weather and scarcity of good seed.
 Oats were steady around previous close, with trade the smallest in a long time. Commission houses on both sides Yin a terests bought May.-Fenner Beane. to Kahn & Virgin. S.
 CHICAGO, Hay 14.-Wheat--the most prominent character of the wheat mar ket is the persistent refuias of the trade at large and the public to enter the mar ket. This condition has prevailed for so many months that the steadiness of prices in the face. of most discouraging surroundings is becoming q matter of general comment and we think rightly so; it is high time to .disabuse one's self of \convictions gathered from statistics, which convictions are not confirmed by the action of prices.
 Items of news today have been few and not of great importances labor troubles in Argentine have been renewed, and if continued. will cause firrnness in continental and English market. Com plaints of crop conditions in sections east of the Mississippi river continue to be re- ceived. There are likewise some grumb- lings from the southwest. There are some heartening factors in the world's s situation. among them being a reduction in the area seeded, a condition of the growing crop somewhat below last year, remarkable absorptive ability of import ing countries. heavy movement of. Can adian crop to the seaboard and beyond, and, above all others, the resistance of prices to depressing factors.-5ohn F. Clark and Company. h la
