AT LOEW'S BIJOU

Five superlative vaudeville acts and one of the most interesting pictures ever shown in Birmingham, kept Loew's Bijou in one continuous round of ap- plause Monday night And while the vaudeville seemed to meet with the un- qualified approval of the audience it re- mained for the picture, Married Flirts,' with Mae Busch, Pauline Fred erick, Conrad Nagel and Huntley Cor don, to receive the greatest ovation.
 It is seldom that Birmingham audi ence will applaud a picture, yet this happened at both shows Monday eve ming. Instead of one of the usual love triangles, the picture is built around two successive triangles, which are de- velope2 in an exceedingly clever way,

Ar thur Lloyd varied the usual legerdemain act in which he did some novel tricks but turning himself into a veritable card index. The audience was asked to call for any kind of card which he would produce. Upon request, he displayed marriage licenses, dog licenses, for rent signs, Chinese laundry tickets and even a passport.
 The headline attraction. Jimmy Gil dca and company. combined humor with singing. Two men and four beautiful girls illustrated the romance of Cleo patria, Juliet, Cinderella and Joan d'Arc, but in the end it was found that modern romance was best of all.
 Following this came came Cardo an Noll in classical singing skit, with just enough batter to make the songs stand out in fine shape. The big mo-

TELL ME WHY"

What higher and nobler tribute can be paid motion picture than that thousands of prominent men and women should approve of it. Tell Me Why" was most enthusiastically received in Chi cago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Milwaukee and many other big cities. The very delicate nature of the subject involved in this wonder picture makes it quite necessary to thus present our program with special shows for ladies only and men only with no one IS admitted. This policy has heartedly been received as it gives ample opportunity to present the pictures as they be presented with out the slightest attempt at camouflage.
 Tell Me Why dealing with ques- tions of sex is just the age old story of the most beautiful thing in life motherhood It is not so styled sex picture. it is d simple, sweet and very impressive story of self-indulgent wife whom miserably ignors the legitimate desire of her husband for the right of childbirth. No attempt is being made, through glaring headlines and suggestive titles, to sensualize the pictures. An attempt is being made, however, to en- phatically impress upon the public the all importance of the through knowledge of the sex laws, as they should be known to bring sweet happiness into the American home.

ADJUSTMENTS
AT THE LYI.-J

Oliver Naylor and his seven assistants are offered as an added attractit at the Lyric for the first half of the week, and well balanced bill is still further rounded out by the jazz perform ,nce of this popular local dance orchestra. Several numbers are given, including an encorse of "San,'' often said to be the ,weirdest and jazziest of recent pop ular music. Naylor has his usual in novations to offer, including solo sing in gand eccentric dancing by Monsieur Jules, French banjoist.
 Three Little Maid, who, in the ab- sence of other nomenclature, can be called 'Three Live Glosts,'' are real features as dancers. Their act closes we'll with ghost dance, in which the Three Little Maids appear against a dark background as syncopated skele- tons. The effect is realistic and pleas ing.
 Three White Kuhns, billed as breezes from the west, have an offering of comedy and harmony. Banjos, a guitar, a badly mistreated base viol and harmon ious numbers are included in their act. The final number, "When The Clouds Roll Bly," in which q young lady from the audience joins in, is called back for three encores.
 Sampson and Douglas, in "Wit and Harmony" sing several good songs, and get rid of many clever sayings. The pair is well balanced, with good harmony and much comedy.
 "Anothers Message" extolling the praises of wireless, is well carried out by Eckert and Francis. Messages and bits of song are snatched from the air, while funny sayings are sandwiched in to complete the act. Although An others Message" has shown here prev iously, the ''line" still goes over.
 The Rios, excellent acrobats, open the bill with novel acts upon the trapeze and flying rings. The act is brought to a climax by song from mid air, as Miss Rio hangs by her knees, supports her partner swinging from the rings below, and sings June Night"
 The bill of six acts follows "Pathe News" and "Aesop's Fables," complete the bill

BOARDS RULING
 CHANGES POLICE
 SENIORITY RULE
Civil Service Board Splits Department Into Two
 Separate Sections

Two resolutions affecting the traffic department of the Birmingham police department were unanimously passed at the regular meeting of the civil service board Monday night.
 The first resolution introduced by Horace c. Wilkerson, provided for the separation of the traffic department from the regular police department with separate seniority ratings in each de- partment. The second resolution pro- vided for the shifting of traffic of icers from one corner to another every three months to keep them from get ting careless while on duty. The sec- ond resolution was introduced by J. w. Bryan.
 Separate Departments
 Wilkerson's resolution divided the pO- lice department in what is to be known as the traffic department and the ad- ministrative department. Each depart ment is to have it's own seniority rights. Members who asked to be transferred to the traffic department from the administrative department will have to begin at the bottom of the list, and men who have served an traffic the longest, will have seniority over them even though they have a longer period of service with the city of Birmingham.
 In case the chief of police sees fit to make a change, the resolution pro- vides that he, the officer to be trans ferred, can hold his seniority with the consent of the civil service board. The two departments will wear differ ent uniforms and different badges, the senior man in each department having badge No. 1 and so or down.
 Bryan's resolution asked that men on traffic duty be transferred to a differ ent corner every three months. A policeman on the same corner every day for an unlimited length of time gets careless, he said. He believes that the shifting of officers every three months will promote efficiency. Tower men exception from the quarter annual shifting.
 PatrOlman Suspended
 s. T. Eddins, patrolman, was sus- pended from duty until January 1 for alleged conduct unbecoming an officer. No charges were preferred against the officer who appeared before the board in person. His suspension was shifted to the effect tha tiff the offence was repeated he would be automatically dis charged.
 The board accepted with regrets the resignation R. C. Gladden., chairman of the board who declared that he was forced to resign as his employers, the Frisco railway considered his honorary position job. A rule of the company refuses to allow man to hold two jobs at the same time. The resigna- tion is to take effect Tuesday morning.

Opening Electoral Campaign, Says
Experts Report Justifes

Ruhr Occupation.
WILL MOVE CAREFULLY
Asserts France Will Safeguard Her
Interests.
II the Associated pn1As.


PARIS, April 16.--4Premier Poincare
opened his electoral campaign last
night with a speech at the banquet
of the Democratic and Social Repub-
1ican party. He made it cie that his
demand to be returned to power was
based on the claim that the experts
reports had proved a striking justin
cation for the occupation OF the Ruhr
and the votes supporting it, which
had been given unanimously by the
Senate and by a great majority IN
the Chamber.
NJ. Poincare summarized the points
proved by the experts that Germany
had impoverished herself fictitlouslS
had let six and three quarter billion
gold marks in the way of capital es-,
cape from the country, while keeping
more than a billion foreign securities
at home, had not taxed herself, as
had the allies, and had improved the
railroads. telephones, telegraphs,
ports and canals. un il now she was
in a position to take a favored posi-
tion in the activities of the world.
Feels Attitude Justified.
Then triumphantIy he exclaimed:
sThat is exactly what we have been
saying. what Germany had been dis
putting and. what many even among
the allies have been unwilling to be-
1ieTe"
The payments proposed by the ex-
perts were, he said, not only much
greater than Germany had declared
possible, but greater than, those
Bonar Law had under consideration
before France entered the Ruhr. The
proposals undoubtedly assumed the
establishment of the economic and
fiscal unity in the Ruhr, but, he
added, France under the plan could
not be asked to exchange her guar
antees for others wider and more re-
munerative until Germany has exc
Cuted ner obligations.
There can be no question, of
course" continued the premier, "of
our withdrawal from the Ruhr before
that part which is due us is paid:
nor can there be any question of
