The Damon and Pythias pictures
shown at Kalbfeld's Grand last Sun
day at the instance of st. Johns
Lodge, X. of P, attracted large
crowds of people at both the after
noon and evening performance, and
gave great satisfaction to all. 1t
was a beautiful series of reels. There
was some objection to the show be-
ing on Sunday, the objectors thinking
that it was but paving the way for
regular Sunday pictures, but there is
no danger, Mr.. Kalbfeld will never
do anything that he considers opposed
to public sentiment in Palatka. Be-
sides he likes a rest day himself
This picture was simply shown on
Sunday because of Mr.. Kalbfeld's
granting the theater to the order for
that day free of charge. The pic.
ture was brought here by the lodge.
