If y0u seek entertainment with q punch and with plenty of romance and heart appeal in the bargain too, you will make no mistake in putting down "The Siren of Seville" on your must see list. This big feature photopiny has scored tremendous hit in the 9bag picture palaces of the north and east, showing to packed houses, and~comes to Birmingham direct from it's first show ing triumph in New York and other eastern scifies.
 Priscilla Dean, more dynamic and fiery and appealing than in even "The Virgin of Stamboul," 'The Wildcat of Paris" and Outside the Law," her heretofore greatest successes, is the star of this unusual screen drama. which opens at the Temple theater for six day run on Monday.
 "The Siren of Seville" is typical H. H..

By virtue of a convention dat ing from the year 1875 the commune of Lanne in this department past an annual tribute of three heifers to the Spanish town councils of the Valley of Roncal, across the frontier.
