AND TEUTON PRESS COMMENT ON BALKAN SITUATION
London Says Bulgarian War Is Inevitable-Germans Want Greece to Imi-
 tate Bulgaria

London, October 5.-Under such captions as "Bulgarian Treason" and Bulgaria Sells Herself" London morning news papers take it for granted that Bulgaria has cast her lot with the Teutonic powers The Times says: "Either King Ferdinand has compiled with Russia's demands, or he has made war with Russia and her allies inevitable. If, unhappliy, he has chosen war with one of the entente pow CTS, he has chosen war with all. Upon that there can be no shadow of doubt.
 We are told that nine-teitths of the Bulgarian people bitterly deplore the base ingratitude of King Ferdinands course. but we cannot be influenced by the sup jects. If they are SO weak and docile they must bear the consequences. They paid the heavy penalty of his treason when, at Austrias invitation he drew the sword against his allies after the first Balkan war
 "Untaught by his experience he is ready to again stake their fate upon a second gamblers throw. The tragedy of the situation he has created and they are permitting him to create is cruel to all who have watched the growth and prog ress of Balkan liberties for the last gen. eration.
 German papers received in London de- vote nearly as much space to the Bal kan situation as to the western front They bestow especial attention on the at- titude of Greece In an endeavor to per- suade Greece to initiate Bulgaria.
 The Frankfurter Zeitung expresses dis belief in the allies ability to spare 150,0O0 men for the landing at Saloniki, but warns Greece against permitting such a landing because history teaches where England once plants her foot she gen. erally stays
 The Zeitung tells Greece what tragic fate it would be for her to see the ltal- ians controlling Avlona, the Russians in command at Constantinople aud the Brit ish masters of Saloniki.
 The Kreuze Zeitung also is skeptical about the entente powers undertaking to help the Serbs with an expedition landed at Saloniki.

At the BijOu

Miss Nan Crawford comes into her own as Miss Hazy'' in Mrs Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch" presented by the Grayce Scott players at the Bijou theatre last night In the past three weeks Miss Crawford had given evidence of ability, but her characterization of the matri. mentally inclined spinster and later the repenting bride, kept the large audience in excellent humor throughout the three acts of this quaint comedy drama.
 Another that shared honors with Miss Craw ford was Earle Craddock as MT. Stubbins." MT. -Craddock. who was in. troduced to Birmingham audience last week as the bullying police sergeant in Within the Law" was the nondescript MT Stubbins," the hero of Miss Hazy." When MT. Stubbins" made love in his philosophical manner to his lady fair se- cured through the efforts of Mrs. Wiggs" Miss Leona Soule) there was much merriment, but when he danced at the close of the wedding there was up- roarious laughter. Later MT. Stubbins" got stewed because of his heart-rending disappointment at the cooking of his bride and it was here that MT. Craddock was at his best. It was good. clean comedy with just a touch of pathos as it struck home to the audience that before them was a picturization of a phase of life. ~ All of the other players were uniformly good. Miss Grayce Scott had the com paratively small role of 'Lovey Mary" but managed to get the most out of it. Miss Scott appeared very comedy as a young girl and her work this week adds to the charming impression made in previ- ous weeks John Warner. as Billy Wiggs did not have much to do but managed to do 1t in his usual artistic manner. The others as previously stated were all good.
 Miss Fay Vim. local young woman began her second week with the Grayce Scott players in the small part of Asia. Miss Winn's work was in keeping with the standard set by this excellent stock company.

At the Lyric

Theatregoers. who enjoy high class vaudeville will make no mistake by 'patronizing the Lyric this week. The bill, which began last night. Is without doubt the best vaudeville attraction of the present season and ranks with the best that has been shown in the city. Man. ager Semon unqualifiedly states that the bill far surpasses anything that has been shown at the Lyric under popular prices, and that the policy of having strong and attractive bills will continue. To miss the Lyric this week will mean the missing of great show
 As headliners on the star bill are the SIX Serenaders who offer an excellent musical entertainment. The act Is elab- orately staged and no musical number ever presented in this city can claim superiority over the four talented girls and the two men who comprise the ag- gregation. All can play and sing, and sing well, and as an evidence of the ap- preciation of the audience they had to respond to several enthusiastic encores.
 Another great number of the bill is the Hickey brothers, who appear as acrobatic dancers. Their entertainment is unique and pleasing The trio performs many difficult and amazing dancing and aero bE tic featS mat proved entertaining anu brought forth well deserved applause
 Morris and Sherwood in Those South ern Folks" a blackface act. proved at- tractive to the audience, the team being lare entertainers and drew much ap- plause for their pleasing number.
 If Johnny Singer and the Zeigler twins overlooked. any new dances. or dancing steps. 1t is hard to imagine. for they pre- sented bewildering array of fancy and classy dances. Their act Is well staged and elegantly costumed.
 An interesting sketch. Caught" by Miss Jane Weir and Lawrence Mack was the other feature of the bill in which they both appeared to advantage.
 Pathe's weekly and Heezaliar animated cartoons opened and closed the bill.
 The bill made a hit last night and is without doubt the best ever offered al popular prices.

FROM AN OLD FRIEND.

To the Editor of THE Polk COUNTY REPUBLICAN:
have been receiving your paper for
two or three weeks and wish to express my
thanks, for it seems like an old friend.
We have been living here for about two
months and although we miss our friends
in Tennessee, otherwise we like it here
fine.
started to school about a week after
we came. like the school and the teach
ers also | presume there are between
one hundred fifty to two hundred students
enrolled. We have good literary society
every Friday night with large attendance.
The school will close the latter part of
May and we are thinking and preparing
for commencement exercises
Last Sunday we had quite blizzard but
now it seems that spring is approaching
very rapidly.
The farmers have quite lot of wheat
and oats sown which are looking well.
This seems to be fine fruit country and a
large quantity of strawberry plants are
being set this spring.
Sulphur Rock isn't a large town, about
five hundred inhabitants, but we can boast
Of the best high school in the county, good
churches with preaching and Sunday school

AN ADVERTISER RIGHT.

Henry Ford, the great automobile manu-
facuror, is one advertiser who has the right
idea Fifteen years ago he was working as
an electrician.
Just now, his factory is far behind with
its orders and the demand for cars increas
ing every day.
Does he stop advertising? Not bit of
it. To keep his name before the people is
his principal idea of advertising, just now,
and that it is paying him no one can doubt,
for he is rot given to throwing away money.
Further along this line, he is sending out
free moving picture films showing many in
teresting places and things and very little
about his own business. But he never
fails to see that his name appears promi-
nently in every picture.
Two of his reels were shown at the Y.
NJ C. A., last week, and they we're DECIDEDLY
interesting. They we're furnished by the
Campbell Auto Co., of Copperhill, and
were well received by the patrons of the
show.
Many merchant is poor today for the
want of nerve to push his business by
judicious advertising; and, until he over
comes this fear of risking few cents to
let people know that he has something to
sell, he always will be poor.

Alas! Alas! How gulbe the populace and how evenescen
the promises of the campaign orator
That gevous disappointing development which now harnesses the
unwashed Democracy the evident tendency OF the

as it anticipated that the bills could be large The mansion
had been inhabited by the previous Governor without any serious
