LITTLE MARGARET REYNOLDS DEAD.

The entire community of Cullo-
whee was made sad by the death
of bright little Margaret Reynolds.
Scores of school girls, into whose
arms she rushed again and again
in gleeful sport will shed tears at
the news. A large circle of friends
and loved ones mourn the early
going away of this dear little one.
MARGARET was born November
the third. nineteen hundred and
eleven, and died August the
hirtieth, nineteen hundred and fif-
ten, being thus three years and
nearly ten months Old We buried
her body by the side of that of her
little brother, who had gone on be-
fore, in the cemetery at West Ashe-
vile.
1t was distinctly noticeable that
Margaret was possessed of striking
individuality. Even when little
more than an infant she displayed
signs of an unusual originality.
She was independent, aggressive.
She gave promise of being strong
and useful woman.
Those who were closely acquaint-
ed with her observed often that she
had keen sense of humor that
sparkled in her blue eyes and
spread a smile on the faces of all
around. She enjoyed good joke
and was a precious little sport,
maker-herself. greatly to the de-
light of her friends and associates.
To those who knew her best anC
loved her most. her most marked
characteristic was her high sense
OF. honor and her peculiar regard
for the truth. In her last sickness
when there happened to occur som
slight intimation that she wa
not willing to do just the rieh
thing about taking her medicine
her little heart was hurt, becaus
she felt that she was doubted
She was patient and cheerfu
wide awake and conscious to tn

program The soloists, Miss Eva Nc
Mahon, soprano, and Miss Nathalie

a tremendous reception at their every
appearance.
The terrors of the drug evil, with
especial reference to cocaine, are most
thrillingly depicted in a f1ve-part film
drama BLACK Fear in which Miss
Grace EI1iston is starred. The story
carries a great moral force for good
and the drama is most Interestingly
presented.
Barry and Wolford, old favorites
here, are proving a real drawing card

a real hit in every show. Joe Rat

ious bit of foolishness that wins many
laughs.
The STANDARDIZATION Trio, offering
some rare comedy and excellent, music

proving the most praiseworthys pro-
duction thus far released by the Tri-
angle company and the audiences at
the Plaza where the picture is being
shown one of the big attractions
for the first half of the week become
very enthusiastic at every Ish owing.
Mary RoIand as the butterfly girl who
has aspirations for the company of
distinguished men, has a role that af-
fords her unsua1 opportunities for the
display of her wonderful dramatic
talent and she is making the most of
all the chances she receives Willard
Mack is seen in the role of the bene-
facing burglar while Frank Mills as
the noted criminal lawyer who
chooses the butterfly for .sbetter or
for WORSE is remarkably forcefu1.
1.-The Submarine Pirateo is the title
of the Keystone comedy which is in
four parts and one of the funniest
productions of its type ever released.
Sgd Chaplin is featured in the picture
and succeeds admirably in keeping up
a veritabfe riot of laughter from the
beginning to the end. Much of inter-
est is also seen in the film especially
the use Of submarines, how they are
submerged and how they locate their
victims.
