At the Opera House.

A new play by the author of 'In
Old Kentucky" who writes "A Night
Out, presented on the screen by Vita
graph, featuring May Robson and
Charles 7. Darcy, whose stage sue
cess in I'm Old Kentucky" and which
has had more performances than any
other legitimate production. He wrote
it in collaboration with May Robson,
the favorite actress of Broadway, who
is featured in the film.
"a Night Out" is well worth the
efforts of two such past masters in
stage craft and the leading role is
capably portrayed by Miss Robson.
The film is one of the best comedies
ever released by the Vitagraph trade
mark.
The Rosebud Sisters delivered their
songs, talking and dancing in such a
manner that they had to respond to
several encores. Emmons and Lamey
again had the audience in such an
uproar Of laughter that the manager
was pleased in having secured their
services for another week. These are
two of the best teams in their line
that have ever worked in Pensacola
and should not be missed by the most
particular critic.

Phunmakers' Day.

Today is "Phunmakers' Day" at
the Isis, and Pensacolians should turn
out and rally to the aid of this pop
ular organization, and help them raise
funds to pay off the few outstanding
debts accrued by their recent parade.
Throughout the year the Phunmakers
have worked hard to pay off the deDt
entailed by the purchase of seven new
floats, but unfortunately this expen-
diture was a little too heavy, and the
benefit today at the Isis is the one
method they have of raising this in
debtedness.
The feature of today's bill will be
big surprise and satisfaction. First
of all Manager Jones has supplied
the organization with a Triangle fea-
ture service. The famous German
comedian, Sam Bernard, appears in a
side-splitting feature entitled 'Be-
cause He Loved Her" Norma Tai
madge and Robert Harron appear on
big society feature entitled ''The
Missing Links" To those who have
attended Phunmaker benefits at the
Isis, it viii be readily recalled that
this organization always provides
charming picture features. Today is
no deviation from the rule.
The bill of vaudeville is going to
be great. There is the "Snyde Quar-
tet," in harmony effects. Phil Brown,
the popular minstrel man appears in
blackface. Mr.. Brown makes his
first appearance under the auspices of
the Phunmakers. John Frenkle, Louis
ShuttIeworth, John Jones, Harry
Wagenheim, and possibly another bic
! feature will be attractions worth
while. In short, this dollar entertain
ment will be only 10 and 20 cents

Wednesday, Miss Mary made us
write story called "The Acorn's
Story" We had to make like we were
the acorn and tell how we grew and
what became of us. Some of those oak
trees are made into wonderful things.
There were violins, pianos, Indian wig,
vans, tables that treaties were sign
ed on, baseball bats that knocked home
runs, and number of other things. One
little acorn grew up to be the famous
Charter Oak" In Connecticut. We
illustrated the stories by putting an
ink drawing of an acorn at the begin
ming, and at the end we put picture
OF whatever our oak tree was made
into. The covers were conventional
designs of oak leaf and acorn. The
Sixth grades have written stories about
butterflies and have illustrated them
after the same method, using butter
flies, of course, instead of acorns.

GEORGIA AND TECH TO

ATLANTA, Ca, April 15.-Weeping
and wailing and crashing of teeth are
heard among Atlanta football fans
because the annual Georgia Tech game,
the classic football event of the South,
will be played this year in Athens in

every branch of athletics.
The basketball team, representing
our school beat them so bad that re.
turn match was impossible, and it is
believed that the same dose can be
handed them in baseball. The Column

in line. and accepted a series with our
school. 1t will be recalled, that these
two schools broke even in football, and
this fact alone will create much riy-

games during the Elks convention, but
the arrangement of Auburn and Mer-

that their team is able to cope with any

stuff to back any boast they might
