BOYD WAS not
A. D. OLIVER

Several people who met J." G,
l'Boyd frequently during his stay at
Asllhurn and subsequent trial and
conviction in Irwin county Of the
charge Of swindling do not think
the is the same man that was killed
1t T.eeshurg as 4. d. Oliver.
They base this opinion on the
published photographs Of Oliver and
their recollectionof Boyd. Among
those sharing in this belief are
Judge A.. D. Ross and Mr.. George
l.. Paulk, Of Chula, who saw Boyi
many times when he was in this
section.
They argue that there is not a
noticeable resemblance and that
when Boyd was operating in this
section twenty years ago he wasap
oarently about as old as Oliver at
tile time he was killed. Boyd had
a. full, round chin, while divers
chin shows sharp in his pictures.
They add that during Boyd's de-
tention in IrwinYille Jail he let his
heard grow out and wore q full set
of whiskers at his trial.
There is a strong possibility that
they are right and that Boyd died
in South Carolina, as has been
currently reported. Ifso, it but adds
another strange feature to the re-
nlarkable case Of A. D. Oliver. =

Marine Corps Attractive.

Uncle Sam, rich and powerful, good
to his "help," and the surest pay in
the world, can't keep his cooks any
longer or better than the ordinary Jer-
sey commuter. He offers them good
ray, easy hours, and lots of "nights
out" but they simply will not over
look the fact that they are cooks,
bred and born, and so keep moving OIL.
United States Marine Corps Stats
tics covering the last two years, show
d greater percentage of men deserted
who gave occupation prior to entry as
Cooks" than any other class that en-
listed during the period.
Desertions from the Marine Corps
are very light at all times; the aver.
age Marine considers that the service
offers better advantages than anything
he could find in civil life, and he be-
lieves the opportunities for travel and
adventure to be uneXcelled, and, were
it not for the cooks, Marine Corps
officials believe that the "oldest
branch of the service" would have an
almost clean slate with regard to de-
sertions. No class of men look so
lightly on the oath of obligation as

ing pan," Marine Corps recruiters de-

It's very easy thing to pass along

.MIDDLEMEN NOT
Held PARASITES
Department of Agriculture
Refuses to -Indict Much
Abused Distributors.
IAN INVOLVED SYSTEM
iSpoilase of Fruits. Berries and Vege-
tables. Mounting to 40 Per Cent.
Sends Prices Soaring.

The present abundance Of fresh veg
etables and fruits brings with It the
perennial necessity for their rapid
economical distribution and for en-
couraging a generous and steady con-
sumption. says the Department of Ag-
riculture in a statement just issued
The machinery for moving these food
products is complex Retail dealers
often are accused Of not following
closely the wholesale market quota
tons. and 1t is charged that in times
Of glutted markets they do not cut
prices severely and aid in a rapid
movement from producer to consumer.
But the responsibility for slow and
uneconomic movement into consump-
tive channels Is dificult to trace. The
large class Of food distributors known
as '.middlemen" are often accused OF
levying. arbitrarily. a heavy tribute
on all foodstuffs passing from the pro-
Queer to the consumer
The Department Of Agriculture does
not indict the "middlemen" as q class,
although 1t points out some Of the
abuses in the trade. As a matter Of
fact say the departments specialists,
economic laws would not permit the
long continued existence of a market
ing agency which was solely q para
site.
Several important factors have con-
tributed to the establishment of many
middlemen as necessary agents in the
present system Of marketing. PRODUCE
ton during the last decade has in
creased greatly. and improved methods
and facilities for handling the increase
have been introduced. Keeping pace
with increased production has come
the demand of consumers for more
elaborate and efficient service.
Service IL Luxury.
Seldom Is the fact considered that
service can become a very expensive lux
ury. With the widening Of the distance
between the city and the source of the
fruit and vegetable supply there has
arisen the necessity for special agencies
to meet the changed conditions.
The present distributive machinery,
with all its strong points and its weak
nesses, has been created of necessity, and
it has weathered the storm Of much ad-
verse criticism. Every part of the coun-
try is now enjoying the perishable pro-
ducts Of the most remote districts. Any
tees much be based upon the fact that
The Washington herald., 1915-08-28

some agency must continue to perform
the functions Of the present-day middle
man.
With the perishable nature of large
part of the fruits and vegetables mar
keted there must be some loss. This often
totals higher than the farmer realizes.
For instance. according to the depart
ment.s market specialists, the loss on
such comodities as Strawberries, peaches
and grapes sometimes amounts to 30 or
20 per cent before they reach the hands
Of the retail trade.
1t is always well to bear in mind the
really serious side of losses and wastes.
The spelling Of a dozen cantaloupes, a
basket of grapes or a crate Of strawber-
ries represents an absolute loss to the
community. No benefit accrues to pro-
ducer. distributor or consumer from such
condition. The loss occurring at this
point must be borne by both producer
and consumer. and In a great many cases
the distributor must bear his part of
the burden. The departments special
lists think in many cases losses and
wastes are entirely too heavy a tax on
food distribution and that the elimina-
ton of unnecessary wastes would do
much toward efrecting permanent. sub
stantial economies in marketing and dis

and for a time Armat showed only

ed to vacate SO that the show room
could be filled again.
Such was Washington's first picture
play palace Then Lew Simons step
ped into history as the proprietor of
the city's second motion picture house
by opening a small theater in D be-
tween Ninth and Tenth streets north
west. He called the theater the
Unique. He conducted the Unique for
nearly a year before OPEN g the Pal
ace Theater.
From 1907 when the city boasted
two cinematograph theaters until the
present growth of the business may
be traced through the records Of W.
H. Coombs. license clerk at tho Mu-
nicipal Building. 1t was Coombs VINO
issued the first license to Armat.
In 1905 Coombs licensed eight pic
ture houses. Ten were added in 1909
In 1910 the motion picture theate,
fever was at its height and scores
of companies and individuals were
seeking to finance new "get-rich-
quick" schemes. In that year seventy
four new theaters were licensed But
failure greeted the majority of the
ventures because fools rushed in
where angels feared to tread and the
man with money found himself losing
while the man with experience Wa.
reaping large profits.
The municipal records show that ~
the fiscal year which ended June 80,
1911, seventy-four public halls and
twenty public parks were licensed. The
public parks were the first motion
picture parks, commonly known as
airdomes. The seventy-four public halls
licensed were not all motion picture
houses because dance halls are in

| cluded in the category Of public halls
In the fiscal year ended June 80
1912 there were seventy-one public
nails and twenty-seven public parks
In the next fiscal year there were
seventy- three public halls and nine.
teen public parks.
In the fiscal year which ended June
80, 1915, there were ninety-follr pup
lie halls and twenty-three public
parks. OF the former. about ten were
dance halls and of the latter abou,
eight were dance parks. The foregoing
license figures are the best record,
obtainable of the growth of the mo-
ton picture business in the National
Capital.
The transition in the business be-
tween 1907 and today has been moth
ing short of marvellous. There is hard
ly any comparison between Armats
first motion picture room and the big.
film play theaters throughout the city
today. Even the Columbia Theater,
one Of the biggest in the city. is being
used during the summer for the ex-
hibition Of high-class picture plays.
Fortunes have been made in the
business here as in all other large

and the Apollo in the northeast stand
as monuments to the success of the
business.
In Mount Pleasant and Columbia
Heights the movie fans" have come
to regard the Savoy Theater as a
gold mine" for its owners. Here is
how the fans" estimates the wealth
that pours in at the ticket office:
THE Savoy seats about 1000 per-
sons in the open air park which ad-
joins it's winter playhouse. This park
is filled up about three times each
fair summer night. That means about
5000 admissions at 10 cents each. or
total receipts of $500 a night. Ell.
penses surely won't go much above $50
night. leaving a net margin of profit
of $3.50 a night. There is a net profit
Of about $4,000 for the $50 warm
nights that the park is open"
Whether the figures approach the
exact statistics is a question which
could be answered only by the man
