Allied Arts Club To Inaugurate
 Exhibitions

The Allied Art club meeting tomor- row (Monday) night will be an espe- cially suspicious occasion, as it will in- augurate the series of exhibitions of paintings by local and outside artists, which is to be one of the principal functions of the club. The exhibition which will open Monday night, will be of some of the lovely paintings of our own artist, Miss Carrie Hill. The chairman of the painting group in the Allied Arts club, and supervisor of art in the Birmingham school system, Mrs. Lenore Eldred, has arranged for the exhibition to be held in the Board of Education building, 2030 Park avenue, where the rooms are commodious and q special lighting system has been ar- ranged.
 The attractiveness of the meeting will be further enhanced by an ad- dress by Mrs. Charles J. Sharp on "Some Phases of Modern Art" Mrs. Sharp is both charter creative-work- CT and an honorary member of the club. Mir. Owen Gillespy, who was recently elected to creative-interpreter membership, will add to the pleasure of the gathering with his always welcome and beautiful tenor voice.

 Beginning Tuesday, the exhibition will be open to the public for two weeks, daily, except Sunday, from 9 10 5.
 Considering that the Allied Arts club has only been in operation since the be- ginning of this month, 1t Is really re- markable to note with what strength and vitality it is functioning, and of what real benefit it is proving to the community.
