Grace Cunard and Francis Ford are
names to conjure with in the motion
picture profession. They have made
good their claim to be called the lead
ing serial players in the business.
Not only have they appeared in more
and better serials than any other hero
or heroine who ever looked upon the
Cooper Hewitts when they are green,
but they have written and produced
their own stories as well. That is to
say, in the four serials with which
their names are jointly associated,
Miss Cunard has been responsible for
all the scenarios and Mr.. Ford has
directed all the episodes.

ONLY APPROPRIATION
WILL SAVE ASYLUM

ATLANTA, Ga, July 15.-The board
CT trustees of the Georgia state sani-
tarium for the insane will be compell-
ed to close the doris of the institution
against additional patients unless the
Legislature provides an appropriation
for new buildings which are needed
TIC house the patients already in the
sanitarium, according to John T.
Rrantley, president of the trustees, in
an interview given out in Atlanta to-
day.
President Brantley, who is the
head of a large manufacturing con-
Germ at Blackshear, Ca, and one of
the leading business men of the state,
has been a member of the board of
trustees for many years, and is
thoroughly conversant with the needs
Of the sanitarium.
THE time is not far distant" de-
clared Mr.. Brantley, when the state
of Georgia will be compelled to es-
tablish a second sanitarium at some
other point, because one institution
will not be able to take care of the
rapidly growing number of patients
sent to it for care and treatment.
"A bill is now pending in the legis-
lature to appropriate 100000 for
the erection and equipment of two
buildings at the sanitarium.
"The present buildings nave Ca
pacity for 1915 patients but are
crowded with 1920. Conditions in
the building for negro male and fe-
male patients is especially bad, and
undoubtedly responsible for the high
death rate among them. This is an
ugly fact which must be foced.
Likewise the building for white fa-
male patients is dangerously over
crowded.
IF the needed buildings are not
supplied, l know of nothing the board
can do but close the doors of the san
itarium to further admissions except
as vacancies occur By death and dis
charge"

Norwich's Record Breaking Rifle Team.
In the intercollegiate match with the
University OF West Virginia all five men
the rifle team made possible
scores of 200 out of 200. and a total score
of 600 out of 900. Not only did all
the men firing on the team make perfect
scores. but three out of the five substi.
tutes also made possible scores Of 200.
The total score Of the substitute team
was $50 out OF a possible 1000, or for
the 10 men shooting a score OF 1850 out
Of possible 1000. The score Of the
substitute team was well up among the
best scores of the intercollegiate match,
but was inferior to the scores Of the
regular team This total score is prob
ably q record breaker in the United
states. for it Is doubted whether there
ever has been any other team in the
'nited States having eight men shoot
possible scores out Of 10 men firing. In
lie match with the University Of Cali
'ornia, the last match Of the intercolle
rate shoot. the team also made a score
If 900 out of a possible 600. Nor
sich's record in the present intercollegi-
te shooting shows that the team has on
i've occasions made perfect scores. This
: also probably a record breaker These
matches are all the more remarkable |
when il is horne in mind that most Of
