FURNITURE SUITE IS
MADE IN ALBANY

]. E. Cannon, who formerly lived in
Americas, has just completed a suite
of furniture in Albany, and that city
occupies big place on the map now.
The article which told of the accom-
plishment is from the Albany Herald:
A unique suite of office furniture is
now being built by Cannon's Screen
and Novelty works for DR.. A. D. Wood.
The entire suite is being built of wal
Tut and cedar, both products of Dough-
erty county soil. The cedar and wal
nut trees from which the wood was
secured grew in Dougherty county
were sawed in a Dougherty county
saw mill, and are now being made into
a suite of Office furniture for an office
in Albany by factory located in AL
hany. 1t will be an all-Dougherty
suite.
There will be something n1e p
pieces in the suite. A few pieces have
already been completed and others are
in the making. The first piece COM
pleted was a handsome den couch
built entirely of Dougherty county
walnut 1t has natural wooe flnish,
the walnut being given two coats OF
white shellac and then waxed and pol
ished. The finish is very pretty. A
cedar chest built entirely of Dougherty
county cedar was the next job, but this
didn't go with the office set.
Mr.. J. E. Cannon, proprietor of the
sLop, and Mr.. P. L. Afford, who has
been with Mr. Cannon for nine years
are doing the work. They are now fin
ishing up a library table and office
desk. They are built of walnut, with
cedar drawers. 1t will be impossible
for moth to live in these drawers.
Among the other pieces to be built
from these Dougherty county woods
are: A bookcase of walnut, cedar
lined; four straight chairs, four rock
ers, telephone table and chair; q
cheval mirror, pedestal for an cleo
trie fan, three taborets and severa'
other smaller pieces.

To The Members Of the Farmers

and We kept back Of it just as nara
as we knew how.
We had promises from friends

How many Of you have ever bor-

Government said was ready for long

The Cheat"
at Lyric FIJI.
and SATURDAY.

Fanny Ward, the celebrated Ameri-
can actress will be seen at the Ly-
rio theater on February II and IL,
Friday and Saturday IN the Jesse l..
Lasky production OF Hector Turn
bulls thrilling society drama, The
Cheat" 1t is a Paramount Picture.
Miss Ward made such a pronounc-
ed success as the little country girl
in The Marriage Of Kitty, that her
friends we're under the impression
she was essentially comedienne,
but in The Cheat, another side Of
her wonderful versatility is shown
and she commands great admiration
for her wonderful dramatic force and
technique.
Sessue Hayakawa, the distinguish
ed japanese artist, who made such a
pronounced success playing opposite
Blanche Sweet in The Clue, again
gives one of his finished Performance
es opposite Fanny Ward. Mr.. Haya'
kawa is considered one of the most
eminent artists on the Japanese stage
and those who have seen him in this
country can readily observe why he
merits the consideration. Hector
Turnbull, the playwright, wrote The
Cheat, especially for Miss Ward and
Mr.. Hayakawa, and 1t is safe to say
that 1t will be one Of the most thrill
ing and unusual photodramas ever
seen on the screen.
The scenes Of the play are located
on fashionable Long Island. The
big society'lawn fete and ball affort
great opportunity for the display o
the smartest fashions.
The entire production Is made II
the usual lavish and artistic Laskl
manner and is directed by Cecil u
DeMille personally and he consider
1t his best work since he produce,

Prominent In the support of Mis-
Ward are Jack Dean, James Nett

exceptionally fine picture.
