 And a new leading woman will be in- trodueed to theatregoers, when Miss Helen Joy makes her appearance in the principal role of "The Mad Honey

It. is net saione a masterpiece of beauty, but it is also a thrilling ac- tion filled dramas with q story of. ab- sorbing interest, enacted by cast con sisting of Robert Mantell, the famous Shakespearean actor and stage and screen star, John Charles Thomas, Alma Reubens, and very, large sup porting cast.

 History has never known period richer in romance than the bold, riot ously extraVagant days, when Cardinal Richelieu's "reds robe" of power en- compassed of-al France. Such hymagnif- icence in a screen production has been rarely attempted and it is claimed that this super-production takes its place alongside When Knighthood Was in Flower" Enemies of Women" and others of like magnitude, splendor and character.
 s It makes you :see,. feel and actually live in the tumultuous scenes of romance and intrigue in the great days of, old France and the willy Cardinal Riche- lieu. aS s A magnificent musical score has. been arranged for this picture by Musical Director Fred Stark.

moon." Miss Joy comes to Birming- ham with a fine reputation both for her talent and beauty The other members of the cast are so well known that Birmingham needs no comment on their excellent work. s.\
 The promise is given that "The Mad Honeymoon" is one hundred per <cent enjoyable. The play is built on some what different lines, being termed a farcical melodrama, and provides ex- ceptionally good roles for every member of the popular local company, . The story has, to do with. an elope- ment under embarrassing circum- stances, the, theft of large amount of bonds, the. attempt of crooks to impli- cate former pal now turned straight, the mysterious workings of a cores pondence-sc6ool-train detective, and the novel way. which father adopted to assure his daughters future happi- ness. .-
 'The Mad Honeymoon" played to large, laughing audiences in New York and will certainly do so here. ,. '.

Rises" Like Bread
 Raised biscuits of concrete, as light as those mother used to make" and much more durable, are now a possi- bility. They will float, but are not in- tended: to be eaten. They are used as building material, their porous struc- ture making them light and easy to handle and also resistant to the trans mission of heat. They are =tle inYen- tion of Axel Eriksson, Swedish archi- tect. Says Science Services Daily Science News Bulletin:
 These concrete blocks are raised through the addition to the mixture while still wet of a quantity of finely powdered zinc or aluminium This re- acts with the free lime of the cement, liberating hydrogen gas, which fills the liquid mixture with bubbles of the gas that are imprisoned there where the concrete sets. The process is analogous to that of the leavening of dough, which is accomplished by the setting free of carbon zdioxide from. a mixture of bicar- honate>-nf soda and cream of tartar, alum. or some. other chemical. The building authorities of Stockholm have approved the use of these blocks in two story buildings" s."-Literary Digest.

BEACH
 EASTLAKE
Crowds Continue To Shatter Attendance Rec
 ords At Playground

More people took a plunge at East Lake parks beach the past week than all the other lakes and pools in the Birmingham district rolled together" said an, official of the park Saturday. ''Tve been associated with the swim ming business for years, and. I'm here to state that I've never seen anything like it in my life. Such an attendance is proof enough of the undying popular ity of East Lake as a swimming place for the kids and grown-ups alike and for the young and old" r~- ;.
 This park attache talked at length on the increase in patronage. He stated that a collaboration of improve ments made during the winter at cost of thousands of dollars. had been re- sponsible for the growing popularity of the resort as, a swimming mecca. Among the features that he mentioned as being responsible for the establish ment of East Lake as the official meeting place for lovers of water sports were: A remodeled beach, just twice as large this year as last; an abun- dance of water sports devices and fea- lures; especially deep sectors for swim mers and divers; a sandy stretch of beach giving the lake seashOre ap- pearance; wonderful accommodations in the bath houses in the way of lock CTS, showers and the like, and last, but not least, the pure spring water which flows into and out of the lake every minute of the day. ~'-. ..-
 Monday ushers in another week at East Lake and with the heat gods strut ting their stuff, it is expected that a new attendance mark will be reached by the end of the week. Monday. you know, Is Ladies Day at the park and all women are admitted to the beach free from 1 to ' 80 each Monday after noon. There were more women in bathing at East Lake last Monday aft ernoon than ever congregated together before in one swimming place. The fair swimmers are~iRvited out tomorrow aft ernoon to shatter this mark as gratis swimmers, guests of the park man agement.

 For His Own SDeech

A Native Declares In English His Love
 For. His Own Speech
 The speech of men is the ring of gold in which may shine the precious stone of thought; and there is no speech so attractive as Bengali, unless it be Spanish-'a language of caprice and orderliness." Tears came to my eyes when I heard the train porter say, '"The parched tongue needs a cool drink or the voice of the beloved to slake it's thirst"
 Of course, we Bengalis are tremen- dous takers, But what a picturesque speech we utter! The best poet of India, as well as the best scientist, is a Bengali, and Jagadish Bose is as much of a poet (read his inaugural address before his institute) as Tagore is a scientist.
 So when I am accused of being a talk ative BengaIi am complimented, as I say to myself, If you. had such a tongue as mine you, too, would talk" -Dhan Gopal Mukerji, in the Atlantic Monthly.

EDUCATING WIFE BY ELINOR GLYN
Film Version Of Famous Authoress' Story At
 Loew's BijOu

,. How can I help my husband make more money? .... Elinor Glyn. answers this question, perplexing to so many women, in her latest comedy, How to Educate Wife" which will be the screen feature at Loew's Biiou all of this week, be- ginning Monday afternoon. Or, rather, she shows how to do it and how not. For one goes on the rocks in the experi- ment, while the other comes through with flying colors.
 The weeks vaudeville at Loew's Bijou is also featured by number of special attractions, with the headliner being presented by the Twenty-Seventh Division. Boys in Getting It Over," a spectacular comedy revue, described as an entirely new and entertaining fea- ture act, while another, speciality is promised by the fascinating and dainty daneuse, ''Valda," formerly of the Metropolitan Opera house, with her variety of artistic dances, accompanied by Lynn Bruno at the piano.
 William Bohan and Grace Bohn open the weeks offering with a hand- balancing novelty, entitled ''Just A Re- AOAAOWSu u SOHB-ISSI nished by the Singer Sisters, said to be irresistible in popular tunes, and by way of diversity. the famous laugh-pro- vOkers, Lewis and Rogers, will pre- sent a character comedy offering.
 Marie Provost plays the part of Ma bel Todd in How To Educate A Wife" the screen feature of the week, from Elinor Glyn's story, playing the role of the rather drab wife of an insurance agent, whose financial slump shows no rise. Of course everyone will be on the alert to see. if the appealing Marie sustains the high place she leaped to in one bound in "The Marriage Cir cle." Her husband is played by Monte Blue.
 The story opens with their predica- ment-unless there is more money they will lose their poor little home. Their successful friend, Billy Breese, an architect (played by Creighton Hale), gives a studio party and shows the shabby pair how his smart wife, i'm personated by Betty Francisco, draws business his way by being mice" to some rich bachelor wanting a new home for his house parties.
 The slow-thinking insurance agent gets the idea and passes it on to his wife. How she works it out supplies the excitement.

Eight additional school Fairgrounds
are to be opened at the end of school
hours today, this increase in play
ground facilities having been brought
about through private generosity.
There was no public money available
for proper operation of these play
grounds. and the needed fund was fur
nished by the Rotary Club and by the
National Theater out of receipts from
a Mary Pickford film. The supervisor
of municipal Fairgrounds has said
that the contributions will keep these
eight Fairgrounds open between the
close Of school and dark and on Satur-
day from morning until afternoon up
to the beginning of next fiscal year,
July /, when public money should be
available. In the contributions to keep
these school yard Fairgrounds open
after school hours and on Saturday
there is evidence of public spirit and
generosity, evidence Of the need of

by citizens that public Fairgrounds
