Few people fail to recognize the Woh- derful entertaining value Of the modern photoplay. Scores of the stars or the sneakiug stage have just recently en- listed in the growing army ot entertain CTS who are to be seen only on the screen. and men who have been proml- nent in the production of successes on the speaking stage have become ldentl- fled with the pictures
 All this means that theatregoers nave learned that they get better value from n. Aig feature picture play than they do when they pay high prices for made7 up company playing a standard success When a picture is a success, everything in the original production, scenes, eff fects. rlayers and all, can be moved iron, pla:e to place in a packing case, and the people in the smallest towns see exactly what thousands see in the blS theatres in New York and Chicago.

 Montgomery Man
By FRED IT. GoRMLEY

Montgomery, January 23.-tSpecial) Following the meeting of supporters of John H. Wallace. Jr., at the capitol Tuesday night, prominent men back of the campaign against the federal amend s1ent and in favor of a local option law for Alabama believe Mir Wallace will be centered upon by all persons opposed to the adoption of the amendment and that a concrete organization will be formed which will make the fight against the amendment and in favor of the cleo tion of Mir. Wallace.
 It was plain to observe Wednesday that Wallace supporters were satisfied They contend that the meeting was at tended by as many representative citi- zens as possible when considering the bad weather and that the enthusiasm generated is sufficient to put MT. Wal lace before the voters of all sections of the state.
 renee, superintendent of the Anti-saloon league, will be the prominent figure of the campaign, a figure on the amendment side because of his activities as head of the organization and figure on the anti-amendment side because of his un- popularity with those opposed to the amendment. Only two names were men, toned at the Wallace meeting-Wallace

 WHITESIDE OF ANNIST0N Cooper Whiteside of Anniston was the only person from the home county of Mir Wallacs's chief opponent. Thomas E. l<ilby, who appeared at the meeting. He said Calhoun would take care of MT. Wallace and that i've are determined that another pussy-foot prohibition dele gation will not come to Montgomery from Calhoun county again
 W. V. AIayhall of Haleyville. Winston county, the only county which goes re- publican at all elections, said the demo- crats of his section were determined to do all in their power to defeat the amendment He said the counties which he knows. Winston, Franklin and Marion, will go against the amendment and will rejoice when the time comes ito bury the dead carcasses which have come to Alabama from other states"
 William R. Brassef of Montgomery re- ferred to Brooks Lawrence as "Brooksie" and declared that he had been responsible for the present fight. He also main- tained that the present prohibition law had been a farce and failure His address was the first connection made between the conference and liquor, other members insisting that states rights was tho only issue.
 CRIME BREEDER"
 "The people don't recognize the pres ent prohibition law" said MT. Brassell. Tt is 9 crime-breeder in this county It leads up to bad things"
 William A. Gunter. Jr,. said the old prohibition amendment of 1909 'has risen, phoenix like. in more pernicious form and we must put it down."
 All in all, supporters of MT. Wallace claim tc be absolutely satisfied with the meeting. They contend that all coun- ties are being organized, that the cam paign in each county has been placed in the hands of virle man and that he is surrounding himself with promi- nent citizens who are opposed to the ratification of the amendment.
 One Montgomery newspaper opposed to Mr. Wallace Wednesday afternoon. stated that 176 persons were in attendance at the conference and that many were from the city of Montgomery and not Wallace men, Other newspapers and on- lockers agreed that about 200 persons at tended and that the state was fairly well except the extreme northern portion.

DON'T DELAY!
Some Hood River People Have
Learned That Neglect is
Dangerous.

The slightest symptom of kidney
trouble is far too serious to be over
looked. It's the small, neglected trou-
bles that so often lead to serious kidney
ailments. That pain in the "small" of
your back; that urinary irregulari;y;
those headaches and dizzy spells; that
weak, weary, worn out feeling, may be
natures warning of kidney weakness.
Why risk your life by neglecting these
symptoms? Reach the cause of the
trouble while there yet is time-begin
treating your kidneys at once with a
tried and proven kidney remedy. No
need to experiment - Doan's Kidney
Pills have been successfully used in
thousands of cases OF kidney trouble for
over 80 years. Doan's Kidney Pills
are used and recommended throughout
the civilized world. Endorsed at home.
Read this Hood River testimony.
A. C. Stevens, 9l6 Twelfth St., says:

the thing for weak and aching back.

recommend more reliable medicine
than Doan's Kidney Pills for these trou
bles. | have been taking them off and
on for long time and they have never
failed to give me the best OF satisfsc-

Mr. Stevens is only one OF many Hood
River people who have gratefully en-
dorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If your
back aches - if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for kidney rem
