WILL SOON HAVE FIRE TRUCK

The fire truck that has been pur-
chased by popular subscription and
by the aid of the Womans Club of this
city, is now in course of construction.
The frame work has been sent to the
Ford Garage of this city and machin-
lists will at once begin work of as
sembling the truck.
The truck will be painted a vermil-
lion red and from the picture one has
every reason to believe that it will be
a thing of beauty and joy forever.
The truck will fill long felt want.
and the volunteer fire department will
be better enabled to do the work that
will be required of them.

Tally one for Bettina Scott an
| American heiress who declined to
swap herself and her millions for a
title. The broken down rakes of
Partisan society swarmed about Bet
tina as flies congregate around a
shattered watermelon in midsummer.
( But Bettina loved a soldier and
right there is not alone the title of
the Bluebird Photoplay to be exhib-
/ tied at the Crescent Theatre on Fri
day, Dec. LIST, but a digest of the de-
! lightful comedy plot as well. Louise
Lovely and Francelia Ellington rep
resent the two Scott girls, between
whom an alert-eyed and passion-stir-
red French cavalryman had great
trouble to choose. Prettier creatures
are not in current photoplays and
when you see these ravishing types
of blonde and brunette lovliness you
will understand why il was that one
of the girls was ultimately compelled
to make the soldiers decision for
him.

SATURDAY A SPECIAL FEATURE

The management of the Crescent
theatre is making a point to keep up
their reputation of making Saturday
nights a special feature night. They
have, ever since opening this popular
theatre, featured the Saturday even
ing performance in order TO accom-
modate the patrons who live outside
of Audubon. This feature has be-
come so popular that the town folks
are also taking advantage of the OPP
portunity, but by giving two perform
ances all those desiring to attend can
be comfortably seated.
The feature for next Saturday night
will be THE Kings Game" Gold
Rooster film, and considered one of
the best.
The people of the community are
urged 20 patronize the Crescent on
Saturday nights in order TO permit
the management to continue this
special feature. for il is in fact, far
ahead of many of the features shown
in the moving picture theatres in the
large cities.

TO HOLD SERVICES

The annual Thanksgiving service
will be held at the Evangelical church
this evening at 1880. Rev. Jackson
Giddens, pastor of the Methodist
church will preach the sermon. Spec
ial music will be rendered by a mixed
quartet.
After spending the day in feasting
and enjoying the pleasures of the
family circle, it is only proper that
everyone should attend this service.
No doubt all of us feel thankful for
something, and we ought to show it
in some way.
A service will also be held at the
Methodist church at Gray, the SER
vice being in charge of the pastors
of the two churches.

NOTED ORTENTALIST
DENIES NEW STORY OF
CREATION AND FLOOD

NEW YORK, N. Y.-Rev. DR.. John
Z. Peters, who is known as one of the
ablest Orientalists in this country, has
attacked the claim of Professor Ste
rhen Langdon to the discovery of a
new tale of creation and the flood
from fragments of an early Assyrian
clay tablet, which he declared recently
he had translated.
In an article which appears in the
'Churchman, DR.. Peters denies that the
translation can be assumed to be cor
rect and, even if correct, that it bears
any relation to the biblical story of the
Garden of Eden and the Ark of Noah
DR., Peters for some time was prof
lessor of the University of Pennsylva.
Ma and was at the head of the Ameri
can expedition which investigated the
remains of the old city of Nippur,
Assyria.
