 "A Trip to the Moon the whimsical musical oddity in two acts, in an nounced for the new attraction com mencing with Monday evenings per formance. In this new and decidedly novel musical revue Ed Redmond will be seen in the star role, that of Bud Gy," the embryonic bird-man who at tempts to emulate the air contortion work made famous by Art Smith; the only difference in the respective fliers being that Art" was long recog- nized as adept at the art of directing air wagons through space, while Bud dy" is real novice who is compelled to make good or lose the hand of the fair Alice-but fortunately his mex perience stands him in good stead, for TO sooner does he leave the ground than he discovers that he has forgotten all use of the levers and planes and it is this sudden forgetfulness of mind that enables him to eclipse the worlds record for distance and at the same time disprove @ apparently that Sir Isaac Newton's theory on the law of gravitation is wrong

EMPRESS

Aside from being one of the most charming stories imaginable, Forbid den Paths which will be seen at the Empress today and tomorrow, serves as an excellent vehicle starring jointly Vivian Martin known as the sweetest girl in pictures, and Sessue Hayakawa the celebrated Japanese actor. It is seldom that two stars of such real worth are seen in the same picture The story is that of the supreme sac rifice of q Japanese who loves his American ward. It gives Hayakawa unlimited opportunity for the display of his well known ability and in the role of the ward, Vivian Martin is seen at her hest. in a character that suits her perfectly. The supporting cast in Cludes Tom Forman and several other Paramount favorites.
 On Tuesday, for a run of three days, will be seen Jack Pickford in a picture that has done more to bring him prom inently before the public than any he has ever made-"The Dummy" Critics have been prompt to record their ap- proval of his work in this release. and it will doubtless prove one of the most entertaining pictures shown in the city recently.
 Friday and Saturday will see the re- turn of the American War Weekly which is a chronicle of events through out the country bearing directly on Americas great work in the present world war.

been greatly impeded by the fact
that Georgia has no decentralization
or cattle-dipping law enforceable in
all counties alike, but only with in
dividual county consent. Thus one
county may-and this has been re-
peatedly experienced-vote to en-
ploy the cattle-dipping law, and
make conscientious, effort 70 eradi-
cate the pest. But as the cattle
within that county become tick free
they become reinfested from the
cattle Of the next county, where the
dipping law is not enforced.
A tick is no respecter Of imagin-
airy county boundary lines; but he
is a respecter Of the dipping vat.
And the only way to wholly cleanse
the state of this expensive parasite
is to make dipping compulsory and
state wide in its operations.
1t is to bring about such a law
that the Wayne county bankers
have thrown their dollars and their
sympathy into the anti-tick war
chest.
Doubtless the banks and business
men Of the other tick-infested coun-
ties will follow suit. They should
lose no time in doing it, because
there are rot many ways open
through which they could perform
a more beneficial public service
and at the same time perform dis
tinet service to themselves in that
they would be stimulating an in
dustry that inevitably means swol-
len deposits and bank balances.
