ESSAY ON SUNRISE
From the Louisville Times.

From the Louisville Times
 Sunrise is what people are always sem fenced to be shot at
 In some cases this is the first time the victim has ever either seen the sun rise or been shot at.
 If he has been half shot the night before he doesn't see the sun rise Being shot at sunrise isn't such an aw- ful fate for some folks
 Many people would just as lief be shot as to get up in time to see the sun rise Those who have seen the sun rise speak very highly of it.
 But we do not let them fool us.
 Associating with the sunrise is poet ically presumed to make men better.
 But look at the milk man.
 Getting up with the sun Is much over- estimated stunt.
 To begin with, the sun is neither bene- fitted nor impressed with our efforts.
 It doesn't help him get up to have us rise at the same time, and he goes right off and leaves us, anyway
 For our own part we think it is eX- while anybody gets up. The orb of the day has little enough chance for privacy, as it is, with every body Sawpng while he goes to bed.
 What about the golden rule business?

Alabama's Most Beautiful Woman

'"The success of Miss Lois Wilson, Ala bama most beautiful girl, as a movie star, is very gratifying to her many friends said w. B. Wharton. Her pop ularity is attested by the crowds that have attended the local picture houses in which the pictures in which she ap- pears have been shown.
 While there is no doubt that her beauty had considerable to do with her prominence in the film world, yet she has displayed a wonderful degree of talent for one whose experience is so limited.
 This is an absolute necessity for any girl to get recognition in the photo- plays for, notwithstanding the fact that every state in the union sent it's most beautiful girl to the San Francisco fair, where they were given a try-out' in the movies, Miss Wilson was Ine only one to secure leading part"

AII-Star Cast

When you stop to consider that in the all-star cast of The New Henrietta, which includes William H. Crane, the dean of the American stage, Maclyn Ar buckle, Thomas W. Ross, Amelia Bing- ham and Edith Taliaferro, the public has paid $2 at various times to see any one of these stars, and that now they are to be given the opportunity to see all five of them Ut g it is the chance of life time," said P,own Parks yesterday
 No other theatrical event of the sea- son will be full of interest as the appearance or this all-star cast at the Jefffferson on January 24-25. Everywhere that they have appeared capacity houses have greeted them, and the production, which is magnificent, has pleased beyond all expectations. When The Henrietta was produced years ago by William H Cranle and Stuart Robson, it made one of the biggest hits in the theatrical world and it's revival this season, with MT Crane in his original role and supported by four of the greatest favorites on the American stage, will go down in history as one of the big achievements of the age.''
