THIS FREEDOM TO BE GIVEN FOR ALABAMA COLLEGE

Birmingham chapter, Montevallo Alumnae association. assisted by the women of tI@ clubs of the Third district of the Alabama Federated Women's clubs, will dispose of $500 worth of tickets to the great motion pictures, This Freedom" screen version by A. $. NJ. Hutchison, author of If Winter Comes," the entire proceeds of the sale to be given to the Million Dollar Drive" for Alabama college, MOntevallo, through the courtesy of Mir. J. Steed, manager Temple theatre, Maconic' au- ditorium. This picture will be present ed at the Temple theatre beginning June Is, and only the proceeds from the sale of these tickets will be donated to the drive. Mrs. D. F.

 The past season, judged from everi standpoint, was the most successful il the clubs history, consequently in tal ing up the work for, the season oI 1924-25, the officers, chairmen and their committtes are entering upon theil duties with much enthusiasm, hopin3 and expecting, not only to equal thl success of the past season, but to en| large in every department the scopi of the work, and make of 1024-25 thu greatest musical year Birmingham had ever enjoyed.
 The artist course is the most ambitiI ous ever offered by the club and con| tains a group of artists, who will satisI fyt even the most exacting.
 The Music Study club is especiaIls proud of the tremendous awakening there has been in Birmingham along musical lines. Time was, and not sd many years ago, when one artist in q season met a financial loss, whereas the past season was filled with mu- sical attractions that any city double its size might well boast of. To make of Birmingham the music center of the south, does not seem so far away, as it once did.
