(Wlth apologies to Joel c. Harris)
In the fall of 1914 the Woman s
Literary Club of a town somewhere
in Georgia spent several months in
the study of Georgia history and litera-
ture. From the landing Of Ogle-
thorpe. through the stirring days OF
Nancy Hart. the final disp0ssession
of the Creek and Cherokee Indians,
and the storm and stress of the Civil
War, the interest of the club members
was unfagging, but as no time dur
ing the period of study was the en-
thusiasm greater than when the folk
lore of Uncle Remus' was under dis
cussion.
Early in the spring of the following
year the club gave a banquet, ana
next morning the husband of one OF
the fair club members met Uncle
Remus" on the street, and the follow
ing conversation took rllace:
We'll, Uncle Remus, you've nlau~
hit with the club this year-you come
out ahead"
Seems like l knowed my head wuz
so'," said Uncle Remus, rubbing his
woody pate, "but | never know'd hi

Did you go to the club party, Re

| "Yasser, served tea an vol

have?'

"And what else did they serve,
Uncle Remus?" asked the thoroughly
interested listener.

To Use German Steamers.

SANTIAGO, Chile, Nov. 27.-It is
announced that Germany has consent
ed to this country using the interned
German steamers under certain con-
Gitions. which are not made public.
AS Chile proposes to rent the steam
ers, and as such an operation would
be to German advantage, it remains
to be seen # the Entente Allies will
concede to such vessels immunity from
seizure. A request to this effect was
refused by them many months ago.

RoARs OF ENTHUSIASM
GREET "FALL OF A NATION"

Pandemonium broke loose in the
Gaiety theater yesterday afternoon
about o'clock when the wonderful
climax scenes OF the Fall OF Ma
ton" began glittering on the screen.
1t is difficult to imagine how the mas
sive battle scenes that are a feature
Of this wonderful picture could pos.
sibly be filmed without dire disaster
to all participants but the younger
generation considered this Serious
matter not at all. 1t lusted for blood!
They whooped and hollered and i'm
plored the boys in khaki to kill 'em!
kill 'em," And joining in the enthusi-
asm of the younger folks were the
deeper voices OF their elders. It is 4
picture to arouse your enthusiasm. II
plays upon your patriotism your SYM
pathies and your love of country. Its
massive scenes thrill and lull, setting
your every nerve tingling in one mo-
ment and bringing the tears in the
next. The Gaiety orchestra augment
Gu W lSu DitItS, pay GU the hSdNS
score to perfection, doubling the effect
OF the tremendous battle reels and
adding to the pathetic portions of the
play the tender pathos that only music
can arouse when coupled with realism.
The work of the orchestra cannot be
too highly commended and Elko can
well be proud of such an excellent
musical organization. The picture is
great; considered by some as better
than The Battle Cry of Peace" and
by others as inferior, it still is pro-
a wonderful production and |
every picture follower should view
1t while the opportunity offers. The
OF the Gaiety has an
nounced that it will be repeated for
he last time tonight.
