a stage Of development existed in :

THE BATTLE CRY OF PEACE

A spectator at a moving picture
is a callous sort. He has had
sudden death and destruction
served up to him too often to
have it ruffle his calm exterior.
Besides he knows all this is es-
sential to any film worth the
price of admission. Thus in
general he is able to sit unmoved,
while the dramatis personae
struggle in the midst of fire, or
food, or famine. It is not be-
cause he is hardhearted. 1t is
because there has become firmly
ingrained in him the belief that
somewhere in the last reel there
will be tucked away a happy
ending. Be it said to the credit
of 1.-The Battle Cry of Peace
produced last night at the Males
tic, that everyone in the crowded
house waited for the happy end
ing with strained attention.
They read with general excite
ment the moral of unprepared-
ness the film is supposed to teach.
And their attention changed to
horror when the happy ending,
after lowering about for some
time as a remote possibility,
vanished beneath the ruins of
the city of New York.

Many men look to the tractor
to enable them to do away with
the use of horses to the extent
commonly expected by purchas-
ers, but its greatest advantage,
as before mentioned, lies i: the
fact that it does the heavy work
quickly, and thus completes it
within the proper season, since
it places at the farmers command
a large amount of power when
needed.
THE tractor does displace
horses to some extent, but only
in about two-thirds of the cases

that the people of the county

appreciate the advantages that
it would afford, and will be glad
to contribute.
Prof. Robinson sounded the
keynote of the meeting Satur-

people of the county could not
object to the special 5 cent tax
levy if they thoroughly under

county are to have an opportuni-
ty to see "Hogwallow Folks" a
Kentucky backwoods comedy,
which is said to be one of the
quaintest and most unsual come
dies ever written. The play is
written by and produced under
the personal direction of Mr..
George Bingham, editor of the
Hogwallow Kentuckian, which
has a national circulation.
Twenty or more of the fifty char
acters which have been used in
this unique weekly publication
for the past ten years, have been
put into play of four acts,
therefore those of the local pub
lie who hove become acquainted
with such Hogwallow citizens as
Raj Barlow, lobe Moseley, Poke
Eazley, Washington Hooks, Miss
Flute Belcher, the lDepity Con-
stable, Miss Fruzie Allsop and
the Calf Ribs widow, through
the columns of the Hogwallow
Kentuckian and Judge Magazine,
will now be able to see them on
the stage here in Paris on Mon
day night, May Goth, at the Dix
lie Theatre, with the author of
the play IN the role of Raj Bar
low. At Mayield last February
8, more than one thousand peo-
pie witnessed and enjoyed the
Hogwallow play; at Fulton on
the night of April 28th the opera
house could not hold the crowd
that was anxious to see the pro-
duction; and at Murray Friday
night, May 18th, it was witness
led by a full house. "Hogwallow
Folks" is publicly recommended
by such distinguished men as
Judge Bunk Gardner, who pre-
sides as circuit Judge in the First
Judicial district of Kentucky; by
the Rev. DIR. Henry N. Barbee,
pastor of the broadway Presby-
terian church at Mayfield, as
we'll as the other pastors there
and at Fulton; and by the Fulton
White Way League, which is
made up of the Club Women of
that city.
The author announces that in
his production there is no hero,
no villain. nobody thrown over
tall cliffs or flung from high
bridges, no mortgage to be lifted
from the oldifarm, and not a shot
fired during the four acts. We
are sure you will enjoy this play,
and we are pretty sure you will
attend.
