REVENUE STAMPS

Revenue stamps, according to Off
cial correspondence received at the
Pensacola custom house, will no longer
be required on certain documents,
cosmetics, perfumes, etc, officially
classed as A and B. Deputy Collector
Bruce Weeks received such informa-
ton from headquarters of the Flor
ida district, at Tampa, and has posted
a notice at the custom house for the
benefit of all concerned.
Since receiving the orders to dis
continue the use of the stamps on
certain documents, the genial local
collector has been called upon scores
of times to explain just what articles
are exempt from "war tax Mr.
Weeks has tired of explaining over
and over, so when insistent inquiries
come, he simply refers them to the
law requiring taxes on certain arti
cles, part of which law stands re
pealed, with the enforcement of thu
late customs order.

BALDWIN SENDING
. FRESH VEGETABLES

Snap beans, butter beans, sweet po-
tatoes, cane, turnips, ETC., from Bald
win county were offered at attractive
prices on the streets yesterday, and
as fresh vegetables have been scarce
articles since the July storm, very
ready sales were made to housewives.
1t is said that supplies along this
line will be available right along now,
as hucksters were assured by pro-
ducers over that way that crops were
producing well, and that what was
regarded as a sort of fresh vege-
table famine" now shows signs of
letting up, since the supply is in
creasing all the time.

usually find it extremely difficult,
sometimes impossible, to contribute a
finely drawn Characterization without
the assistance of the spoken word.
In singular contrast to this theory
was the work of William H. Thomp-
son, the "dean of the American
stage" who has recently been making
his appearance on the screen in Tri-
angle plays produced by Thomas HI.
Ince. Thompson's initial effort was
made for Peggy" the now famed
Scotch comedy drama in which Billie
Burke is starred. During the produc-
ton of this screen play the venerable
actor seemed fearful that words
spoken by him would disconcert the
others in the scene, and as result
of his conclusion he remained almost
constantly silent as he did his "busi-
ness" in front of the lens. In scenes
in which he was supposed to be talk
ing he spoke barely above whisper
and this was done merely to be con-
sistent.

that the Incident which suddenly re-
