Every day many persons come up to me and ask why we do not show more Charlie Chaplin features" said Hoke Berry of the Odeon One Tn fact, there are only small per cent of the people who know that Chaplin Is only making one two-reel picture month since he went with the Mutual service. Yes, that is true, Charlie is drawing his pot for acting in only one picture a month, and the places showing his features are hav- ing to pay for it. The new Chaplin pictures cost us $50 day and we have to agree to run the same picture seven times.
 Although we pay large price for the service and have to run the pictures seven days. they draw the crowds. While Chap lin has always filled houses he is more popular than ever since entering. the Mu- tual service. There is a difference in his playing that has had it's effect. He is not doing the rough and tumble stuff so much; in fact, he never kicked sim gle person in the "Vagabond'-he used his nallet and a. club, altogether and while he raised his foot several times, he never kicked"

BEGINNING THE DAY-O Lord. let me not hencefOrth desire health or life, except to spend them for Thee, with Thee, and in Thee. Thou alone knowest what is good for me; do, therefore, what seemeth Thee best. Give to me, or take from me; and grant that, with humble anu perfect submission, and in holy con- fidence, I may equally adore all that comes from Thee; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.-Pascal.

Prohibition Party.

"When the prohibition party nom- mated former Gov. Frank J. Hanly of Indiana they aided the renomina ton of President Wilson," said Cecil J. Lacy of Jasper, who was in Birmingham yesterday at the Morris
 Both the democrats and the republi- cans have made a bid for the support of Indiana by nominating vice presi- dent from that state. There is no doubt that both men are strong men and each will poll large vote. However, with the nomination of Hanly by the prohibitionists, instead of former Gov. ernor Sulzer, it would seem that the democrats have a certainty in Indiana Sulzer was a former democrat and maintains that faith now and would necessarily have cut into the strength of Wilson and Marshall
 "On the other hand, Hanly is a re publican and will, therefore, interfere with the vote to be received by Fair banks and Hughes. Any man who has been elected governor of state with. in recent years. as has Hanly, must and it looks like certainty that Han- ly will be able to secure enough votes to swing the state to Wilson, even if there had been any doubt about this before his nomination."

Where Both Lose

While many farmers complain that they have no market for this product or that, the city consumer complains about much of his food reaching his kitchen in an old state," said John c. Moses.
 The trouble is simply lack of CO., operation between the producer and the consumer. The past week I bought a dozen eggs; four were unfit for use. They cost me 25 cents. At least four profits were made off this dozen eggs --the farmers small mite, the middle mans share, the retailers take-out and the express company's toll. Now. the farmer evidently did not get over 15 cents out of that dozen eggs. Right here is where cooperation would bene- fit all concerned. If the farmer would hunt up a parcel post customer. ship so many dozen per week. he could cas- fly get 25 cents per dozen the year

HOTEL LOBBIES
Make Automobiles

What Birmingham needs most of all,
 said J. c. Jordan. executive clerk in the
 sheriff's office, lis to hit upon some plan whereby our mone.- can be kept at home.
 There are thousands of dollars being sent
 out of Birmingham daily that should be
 spent in way that it would stay here
 and benefit thousands of workmen. We are buying things every day from all
 parts of the world that could be made
 in Birmingham; so why should we not
 make those things at home? We would
 then not only save and keep our money
 at home, but could give employment to thousands of men in making these products.
 Take the automobile, for instance. It
 Is good thing we all know and appre- ciate this fact, but in using the automo-
 bile we are sending more money out of
 Birmingham and into other states than | from the purchase of anything else With
 the coming of the automobile, horse and
 mule traffic has passed out and with this
 has gone the livery stables, the wagon and carriage factories and most of the blacksmith shops More with the going of the horses and mules and the com
 ing of the automobiles. many men have been forced out of employment. There is no longer the demand for Alabama feed that is grown by our farmers, but thousands of dollars are being spent daily for gasoline to run these cars. This
 money does not stay in Birmingham or Alabama, but goes to the oil producers. Now the question is, what are we going to do to bring back those things that we have lost. They cannot be brought back We know that, but the thing to do is to locate more factories, plants
 and corporations. believe we can make
 automobiles in Birmingham, better auto l mobiles and cheaper than any other town in the United States, and there is no reason why Birmingham should not make its own automobiles"

TOO BUSY FOR WAR
SAYS FRANKLIN LANE
Secretary Of Interior Declares in Com
mencement Address That We Are
Against War Because We Have
Larger and More Important Purposes.

Providence, r. l., June 81. - "The
American spirit is against war, not be-
cause Americans are afraid to fight but
because they are too busy with other
things more important than war;" said
Franklin K. Lane, secretary Of the in
terror, In commencement address at
Brown University today. The degree OF
doctor Of laws was conferred on the
secretary. Charles E. Hughes, repub
lican nominee for president, was an
other guest of the university.
The spirit Of America is against war
not because We have become cowardly
and fear DEATH" Mr.. Lane said. NOR
because we have grown flabby and love
softness, nor even because we have be-
come converts to the prince of peace.
But we here have something larger to
do. We have no time for war. We are
doing something so much more impor
tant. We are at work. When war
comes to a democracy 1t comes because
we are not allowed peacefully to
work"

General Funston's request for the

Judge Fears Their Effect On

to Defendants Case.
PLAINLY INDICATIVE
OF GIRLS SEDUCTION
"The Letters Affected Me-" Declares
Judge DonneIIy, "Their Effect on the
Jury May Be Imagined" - Frieanza,
Recalled, Tells Confession by Orpet =
States Attorney Accused Of Conniv.
ing to Get Confession From Orpet.

Waukegan, Ill.,. June 21.-Judge Dom
nelly was still unprepared when cou-,
opened today to rule on the com
petence or incompetence as evidence OF
the earlier letters Of Will Orpet te
! Marian Lambert for whose alleged
| murder he is on trial
The defense objected to the admis-
sion of the earlier letters as having
no bearing on Marian's death. Judge
Donnelly speaking to the lawyers be-
fore the jury came in said that the let
ters were so prejudicial to Orpet as
plainly indicating seduction that it
would be dangerous to give them to
the jury,
Il have read the letters" the court
said, "and they affected me. The ef-
feet on the jury may be imagined.
They might not draw the distinction
that they are trying the defendant for
murder and murder alone"
States Attorney Dady argued for
their admission on the grounds that an
Illicit love affair eliminating in murder
could be shown only by reading the
entire series Of letters and epistles.
The citations of authorities consumed
an hour.
Friganza Recalled.
Everett Friganza, a newspaper re-
porter who had various interviews with
Orpet, was recalled to the stand.
"Orpet told me that he met Marian
in Helms wood to tell her their friend
ship had ceased-that he was thru"
the witness said. "He said they walked
together. Shes topped and he walked
on. When he looked back she had
fallen in the snow"
Friganza, in a talk with Orpet on
the train from Madison to Lake Forest
asked Orpet if he were engaged to
Celeste Youkers. i,
He said they were practically en-
gagged" related the witness. He asked
me not to drag her name into the case
He admitted that hes relations with
Marian were illicit, he said, 1t was a
cold propusition-1 never told her !
loved her-I never said l would marry
her"
After Orpet was in Jail F'riganza said
he found it hard to reach Orpet and
had himself arrested and put in jail
with Orpet on Feb. 20.
At this point Attorney Potter of the
defense objected.
I'VE have information" said Potter
that the states attorney connived
with the witness to get him into jail to
obtain Orpet's confidence" "Over-
ruled" said the court.
In the jail" continued the witness
Z asked Orpet II he had disposed of
the bottle which contained the poison
He said NO"

London, June 21.-confirmation of
reports of the cutting in two of Cen
eral Pianders' army in JBukowina are
contained in message to the Star
from Petrograd today. When the Aus
TRANS retired from Czernowitz, the
correspondent says, part Of them re
treating due south along the Rou-
manian border and others towards the
Carpathtans, their hope was to have
time to hold the Russians on the for
titled line from Kuty to Seroth, along
the rivers Mikhodra and Sereth. But
despite the delay caused by the de-
fense of Czernowitz General Letchitz-
sky threw his reserves upon the heels
Of the retreating Austrians at such
speed that he reached that line stimuli
taneously with them.
The result was that General Plan
ders' forces were cut in half midway
between Kuty and Sereth. at Stroginet.
