Judge Cam Mullins requests US
to say that as the Flu is about
over, that the bringing of whiskey
int the county must stop. No
more whiskey is needed for Flu
medicine and the Sheriff, Jailer
and Marshal have been instructed
to arrest all parties caught
bringing in whiskey. Many gal
Ions have been brought here in
the last month, which was not
needed or even intended for flu
patients. Some took advantage
of the situation but the lid is 60
on as tight as ever. and this
warning should be needed before
it is too late.

that a carload OF gasolene was in the

MOVIE NOTES.

John Barrymore, who appeared
recently in a screen version Of "Raf-
fles," has been added to the Para
mount roster of stars and will soon
be starred in a picture called "On the
Quiet"
"If the government wants me
for a propaganda picture. I'll play
maid who has two two scenes,
while somebody else does the big
part"
Thus speaks this pretty actress
who has played in more real thrill
ers' than any other actress on the
screen. She claims to be an Amer
lean patriot from the very core, de-
spite the fact that her father was
an Irishman born in America and
Of Napoleon.
She is Pearl White, whose har-
rowing experiences in THE House of
Hate are being followed by serial
fans throughout the country. Miss
White has been doing her bit to help
Uncle Sam in just such a way as one
would expect from such a daring
actress.
To help navy officers recruit she
rode a beam from the pavement to
the twenty second story Of a build
ing which was still in construction.
When a large enough crowd gathered
she delivered a speech and distrib-
uted pamphlets encouraging enlist
ment.
In the present Liberty loan Miss
White acted as a -Four Minute" man
and in one night made a circuit of
twenty one theatres.
When asked by government au-
thorities to pose for war poster by
Howard Chandler Christy she agreed
without a moments hesitation.
When her chauffeur wanted to en-
list she did all in her power to help
him get into aviation and he Is now
somewhere in France" with a COM
mission.
Thus has Miss White done every
thing in her power to carry on what
she considers her part in this war.
Among those actors who gave
their time to aiding the third Lib
erty loan are several Of the most ia
NOUS stars Of filmdom. Besides
Douglas Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin
and Mary PicBford, all OF whom
toured the larger cities making app
peals, William S. Hart, Wallace Rsid,
Clara Kirnball Young, Madge Ken
needy and Emmy VRhelen were just as
active Workep@
