BAR ASSOCIATION
EXPECT TO ORGANIZE SOON
FORM LIBRARY AND BUY
ING AGENCY.

A. w. Sponholz said this morning
that the Madison lawyers were on
sidering the forming of a local bar
association for cooperation in library
facilities and necessities. This has
been talked for some time among the
legal fraternity, and it is expected
that active steps in the formation of
the association will be taken in the
near future.
Mr.. SponholZ said that everybody
is now a member of some association
to benefit the business in which he is
engaged. The Merchants associa-
tion of Madison was quoted as being
one of the most closely associated
and efficient organizations of its
kind, and of great benefit to it's men,
bership. The proposed new associa-
ton, it is thought, will be formed
along similar lines, varied only to
become applicable to the legal
brethren and their profession. They
are said to be considering the estab-
fishing of a common library, compos-
ed of sets of books from the mem
bers, to have q caretaker of thereon
and to employ a buyer who will ex-
ecute orders for household and other
supplies in larger cities.

TELLS OF MARRIAGE OF
MADISON COUPLE.

Through the courtesy of Sergt. r.

abled to give the following account
of the marriage of Miss Hattie Gin
der to Sergt. e. C. Coffey, as publish
ed in the Charlotte, N. c., News:

A GREAT PLAY
MADISON AUDIENCE WITNESSES
THE FAMOUS SCREEN PLAY,
INTOLERANCE"

Screen playgoers of Madison have
seen Intolerance" and pronounce it
the greatest of all plays. The play
was witnessed by a large audience
last evening at high school audito-
rum, and while d. w. Griffth's
Birth of a Nation" was considered
one of the greatest achievements of
the silent drama, it is pushed into
obscurity after one sees Griffith's
latest masterpiece, Intolerance"
Intolerance" as the name implies,
shows the intolerant power which has
swayed throughout the ages and is
predominant in the life of the people
of today. The play is composed Of
four separate stories, all of which,
however, are bound together by that
invisible strain of autocracy which
has been handed down through the
ages by petty gods of industry and
finance to the present day.
The audience is shown the intol-
Grant methods used by a factory own
er in a small town Of today, then
taken back to the days of Belshazzar,
who ruled over Babylon with IN iron
hand in $50 B. c., through the days
of medieval France when Charles TX
occupied the throne, back to the Ju-
dean rule and then once more to the
modern story of the rule of a factory
boss over his less fortunate en-
ployes.
And thus do the four stories alter
nate one with another until, in the
final act, they to flow together
in one common flood of humanity.
A matinee vas given this after
moo and this evening the play will
be shown for the third ana the last
time of the engagement in Madison.

LLOYD GEORGE FINDS
FRENCH GAME AS EVER

LONDON. July Addressing
the press representative in the gall
lery of the house Of commons Mon
day Premier Lloyd George referred
to the buoyancy Of the French ma
ton after three years Of war and
said:
Il found during my visit to Paris
that the spirit of the French people
was better than had ever known it.
There was a sense of discourage
ment at the collapse of the Russian
armies, but in spite Of all, the
French were as resolute as ever.
1T depends very largely upon the
French whether we shall get through
10 the end. If the French and our
selves hang together we shall get
through to the end despite our Rus
sian troubles. The Russians are an
incalculabIe quantity; they fought
when we least expected them and
they hung back at times when it
seemed they ought TO go on. My
latest information is that Russia
will recover and become as formid-
able as she ever has been"
