KEITH VAUDEVILLE
 AT LYRIC THEATRE

l t . e . aa -..
 Vaudeville's scenic. sensation, f'The Forest Fire,v, the big production that Birmingham theatregoers have been waiting for. will be the attraction de luxe at the Lyric all this week.
 This act has caused wonderment and amazement wherever it has been shown and the newspapers declare it the greatest stage undertaking and the most wonderful act on the American stage today. This big production Is presented by Sylvia Bidwell and com pany of talented performers and is a drama of the timberlands in three scenes and two tableaux. Miss Sylvia BidwelI. the leading lady. is one of the best known actresses and her work in 'srhe Forest Fire" is said to be phe- nomenal.
 .erhe Forest Fire has to do with the wild ride on an engine through such conflagration without the use of fire of any sort and entirely by electrical and scenic effects, the illu- sion is carried out with such vivid : ness that even the, unimaginative can almost feel the heat of the flames.
 sOn a rescue 4 missienS the engine lis driven through a burning forest. The engine itself is full. sized and Il complete working model is seen in wild flights--its wheels revolving, it's pis- tons churning into their steam con densers,s hissing and groaning, with a 1aborious task that the engineer is inn posing upon them. The und derbrusil and grass is a blanket of fire. The eff feet generally is that of an unpent inferno, a rushing wave of fire that apparently no human hand can check.

They can think of nothing better to do than something as wicked as their spouses have been guilty ,of but having no practice in wickedness, they find they cannot aim it very well.

Beginning four days engagement on March 2, D. W. Griffith's world embrace ing spectacle Intolerance" will be shown It is far-reaching, all-embracing story of intolerance throughout the ages. The dwellers in the cradle of civilization, the days of the gentle Nazarene, the dark ages, and latter day history are depicted in this wonderful series of scenes. It cannot be described in words, it must be seen to be realized.
 At the Lyric the scenic sensation of the vaudeville stage, 'The Forest Fire" will be the headline act for the week. The story has to do with the wild ride of locomotive through a forest fire. With out the use of fire of any kind the illusion is carried out by scenic and electrical effects and with such vividness that one can almost feel the heat.

OTIS SKINNER IN
 MISTER ANTONIO"


 The appearance of, Otis skinner in new play is one of those theatrical events to be marked in red letters. MT Skinner is a gifted actor as well as popular one and every new role in which he appears gains interest and distinction from his onorous voice, his flashing smile and his compelling personality. His following among local playgoers is large and faithful and to them the announcement of the ad- vent of Otis Skinner at the Jefferson theatre for one performance only on Wednesday evening, March fl, in a new comedy. Mister Antonio,' by Booth Tarkington. will be 'doubly wei come Mir Tarkington needs no intro duction either as novelist or dram atist and having previously fashioned successful play for Skinner it is credible that he has again been able to supply the star with a suitable vehicle for the exploitation of his manifold talents.

that. but even if it be true which we
do not exactly believe, that was the
smallest thing to be considered in
the discussion. 1t was the indirect
cause of saving to the cotton growers,
not only of South Carolina, but of the
entire south, of many more thousands
of dollars in that it pat cotton on the
basis Of good collateral. Before Mr..
McLaurin began work in the ware
house you could scarcely borrow mon
ey on cotton at all.
If We are going to do what the gov
ernor advises in his inaugural We
should lay aside petty politics in this
warehouse business and show that We
mean what We say when We talk about
a forward looking people. And as
the Greenville Piedmont says unless
something is done to keep this ware
house along the lines set forth BY
Mr.. McLaurin in his report the mem
bers will hear from the people In
the next campaign. And We believe
that iMr. McLaurin should nave been
kept in the position until the ware
house was more firmly established. OF
course we do not mean to be under
stood that he is the only man who
can operate it. but he has made a
study of it and is in better position
to handle it than any one else just
