MAE MARSH KNEW HOW \
WILD GIRL WOULD DRINlN
WITH Excellent Results.

1t is a source of considerable com
ment among the people of the Triar-
gle coast studios that Mae Marsh, the
Triangle star. has such a quick sense
OF characterization No matter how
subtle or unusual tne character she
is called upon to portray, she is al
ways prepared with detailed and con-
sistent manner of Interpretation.
In THE Wild Girl of the Sierras,
her newest picture, she has the role
of Young woman who has grown
almost since habNhoud alone in the
woods. She scarcely knows what hu-
man beings are like; her companions
have been wild beasts; her habits are
theirs 1t is character almost
without precedent; but Miss Marsh
seemed almost intuitiVely to know
Just how it should be played, although
her own life has always been one oil
the greatest possible refinement.
For instance, when, as the wild girl
she is wounded and carried to the
prairie schooner by robert Harron in
the character of Bob Jordan, she is
given a cup of water Now. as Di-
rector Paul Powell realized, a wild
girl would not be apt to know what a
Gun was or how to drink from it, Be-
fore he came to the closeup, he
halted the camera to think it out. But
before he could offer the slightest
suggestion, Miss Marsh was there
tapping up the water with the facil-
ity of kitten drinking milk. 1t
shows splendidly on the screen, too.

CASE AGAINST SOUTH CARO-
LIMA CONGRESSMAN Dis
MISSED BY COURT.

Washington, June 2:-Justice Nc
Coy, presiding in the district su-
preme court, today dismissed the
rule which was issued by him two
weeks ago against Congressman w
Ragsdale, ordering him to appear in
court and state what had become of
certain notes which some months
ago were sent him for collection by
the Free Sewing Machine Company
against parties in South Carolina.
When the case was taken up the
machine people desired to have the
case continued. but on motion of
Douglas, Ruffin & O'Bear, attorneys
for Mr. Ragsdale, this was not done,
and before they had completed read
ing their answer to the complaint,
Justice Mccoy ordered that the case
be dismissed.
1t was shown that all of the money
involved in the. case, about 1900,
had been collected by the sewing
machine people and the purpose of
their action against Mr. Ragsdale
was to get the notes in hand. Mr.
Ragsdale's answer that they had
been unintentionally mislaid or lost
was entirely sufficient, hence the
dismissal by Justice Mccoy.
Today's action is a complete ex.
oneration of any carelessness or neg
ligence on the part of Mr. Ragsdale,
and the fact that the case was dis
missed before his attorneys had fin
ished reading their answer indicates
that there was no case upon which
to bring action against the South
Carolina Congressman.
Mr. Ragsdale has accepted an in
vitation to address the Rural Letter
Carriers of South Carolina at Co.
lumbia, July 8 and 4.

Mcuzons, June 3, 1916.
The registration for the first four
months of this year has fallen far
short of the same period in 1915.
This should not be, for there can be
no valid reason for it. AS a matter
of fact, after sixteen months of the
law the people should be so familiar
with its conditions, that the returns
for this year should show decided
increase over last.
Heretofore, | have dealt leniently
with delinquents. but | find that
they do not appreciate the mild
means | have employed in endeavor-
ing to bring them to sense of their
duty and | am now. per force, obliged
to- use harsher methods. | wish
you to publish widely in your ter
ritory that any undertaken or person
acting as such. who does not comply
with the law or any doctor or mid
wife who fails to report a birth at
tended by them. will be prosecuted.
When you report a violation of the
law be positive of your facts and be
prepared to prove your case in court.
l want conviction, for any case not
proven will injure the law and pre-
vent its strict observance.
We have been admitted into the
registration area Of the United
States for 1916. This speaks elo-
quently for the work done by the
registrars for last year. but If we
do not keep up to the standard
established, we will be dropped and
if we fall down on the job the Legis-
lature will rightly think we are not
worthy of an appropriation and
may repeal the law. As a copy Of
every certificate will now be sent to
Washington, l beg of you to see that
all questions thereon are correctly
answered.
Please make an extra effort to get
a record of all deaths and births not
reported for the past four months
and send certificates in to this Office,
and endeavor to send in complete
May report promptly on the tenth
of June and greatly oblige,
Yours very truly,

has advanced fifty to one hundred
Der cent since the first OF January.
If you owe lis for your paper and
expect to continue taking The Rec
ord you had better pay up and re-
new at once. After September |,
1916, the price of the paper will be
$3.50 per year OF course we do
not like to advance the price, but
there is no other alternative open
to us.
1t is not necessary for us to call
YOUR attention to the fact that about
EVERYTHING you have to buy has
greatly advanced in price within the
past few months. Provisions, dry
goods, shoes, clothing, hardware,
fertilizer, etc, haye scared higher
and higher and the end is not yet
in sight. So it has been with all
materials used in the print shop.
Paper has advanced from fifty to
one hundred per cent and many Of
the grades, especially in colors, are
no longer ol,tainable at any puce,
type, rule and ink have also ad-
vanced proportionately, and the
market is in such a state Of chaos
today that we do not know what we
will have to pay for material to-
morrow. All price lists have been
withdrawn, and we only know to-
day that we could not quote you a
lower price tomorrow.
As stated above, the subscription
price of The Record will be advanced
to $3.50 the year on September l.,
1916. Through the circulation con-
test now in progress We hope to get
our subscription list in good shape,
then we expect to keep it in that
condition, and the paper will not
be mailed to any. one who does not
pay up promptly. From two to
five hundred dollars a year has been
lost on subscriptions, through peo-
pie who have the paper sent them
and never pay for it-at the end of
a year or two years their names are
cut off the list and that's the end of
it. With paper and other material
at its present high cost we cannot
afford to continue this old method,
and the person who reads his coun-
ty paper should pay for it as he
pays his grocer or his druggist.
There is no better time than right
now to pay up your back subscrip-
ton and renew before the advance
in price.
