opened weeks engagement at the Pa
vilion Theatre last night with "The Cho-
rus Girl" The theatre was filed for the
evening performance and the large audi
ences were complimentary in their crit
ieism of the production. 1t may truth
fully be said that the company is one of
the strongest that has ever taken the
road, and that is saying a great deal.
The vaudeville specialties are also far
superior to those of other companies and
elected words of commentator from the
audiences.
Miss Gladys Moffatt, the leading lady,
had the part of Anna. She was easy and
graceful in movement, distinct in articu-
lation and clever in facial expression, ex
pressing her feelings distinctly by GEES
ture and change of countenance She was
exceptionally good in her scenes with
George Fame, the captain lover, who won
her hand, and her parting from him when
she realized that parting had to be, in
the apartment of Hawkins, left the in
tended impression of mind tortured

of the members of the company were

Fine Company in deep Purple

At the opera house last night the we'll
known Nellie Gill Players presented "The

means of instigating, resulted in the most
widespread reform wave the world has
ever experienced the exposure and sup

Why Birds Should be Protected

One thing parents and school
teachers should impress upon
small boys, especially in the rural
homes and schools, is that it is
bad policy to kill birds. The first
thought that comes into the aver
age boys mind when he sees
bird il tree or on a fence rail or
running along the ground is to
kill it.
He needs to be told, until he
thoroughly understands, that a
dead bird can eat no more insects
and that insects, if it were not for
birds, would put the farmers out
of business in short order. James
Henry Rice, jr., United States in
spector of birds, calls attention to
the great value of insectivorOus
DlfuS 10 Ine farmer and the Jolly
of killing them.
The busy little partridge makes
the potato bug skedaddle to safer
retreats, and birds with a fond
ness for the boil weevil save cot

is worth several in the hand, to

Twenty million boxes of oranges

ring disaster, Florida will have this
enormous crop to sell within five
years.
If this great volume of fruit is
thrown on the market without prop.
er organization for it's handling, the
growers will obtain little or nothing
for most of it.
On the other hand, if the crop is
marketed comparatively, with prop
er work to increase demand in the
meanwhile, all this fruit that is of
good quality can be sold at satisfac-
tory prices.
The Florida Citrus Exchange is
ready for this problem of the near
future. 1t alone of the marketing
agencies is conducting an adequate
campaign to develop demand. Its
sales force has been strengthen to
aggressively cover the whole count
ry. More and more it is selling

In Race To Finish

Former Governor Albert W..
GilchriSt attended the late session
of the State Horticultural Society
in Tampa. Incidentally, he dis
tributed some campaign docu-
ments. He is a candidate for u
nited States Senator against Ma
than Bryan, Perry Wall and all
the others who may come out, he
assured a Tribune representative.
"Please say for me-" said the
Genearl, " that there isn't the
slightest possibility of my retiring
from the race. There may be
other cutters in Florida politics,
but | am not one of them. "
Speaking about the candidacy
of Perry Wall, General Gilchrist
said; 81 note that Nat Bryan says
this senatorial job occupied his
time for twanty-six out of twenty
seven months. Now, | think that
man who has built up South
Florida like Perry Wall has can t
be spared for that length of time.
He ought to be ashamed of him
self for asking his fellow citizens
to turn him loose that long"
General Gilchrist says he will
make bet that, combining Desc
to and Hillsborough counties, he
will get more votes in the two
than Mr.. Wall He does not con-
slider Nathan Bryan seriously,
judging by his conversation. He
says Senator Bryan has queered
himself by not standing with the
party on vital issues. 81 know
The Tribune feels kindly toward
me, although naturally supporting
a Tampa man"
The General distributed his cir
cularS on the train going up from
Punta GOrda to Tampa. He gave |
out $50 Of them and then went |
through the cars to note how |
many of them had been left be-
hind. He found only six. This
encouraged him in the belief that .
the others had not only read his
stuff, but had taken it home with
them.
ALBERT Gilchrist is one of
biggest and best men in Florida,
and he is meeting with much en-
enlargement in his political aspir-
atoms here. He thinks the race
