THE HONOR SYSTEM
AT THE ROYAL TONIGHT

"The Honor SYSTEM" powerful
human interest drama, will be pre-
scented by William Fox, at the Royal
theatre today. This spectacular ten
reel production deals with the life of
the average man but with the big vi
sion that is characteristic of true art.
"The Honor System" shows the
career of young American, educated,
honorable and refined, who goes to
seek his fortune in the great South
west. There he encounters friends and
enemies, the wolves of graft and
cruelty, as well as the noble at heart.
The big action is maintained through
a series of extraordinary adventures
which, however, are not adventures at
all, but transcripts of fact of life as
it is actually lived beyond the pale
and far from long established COM
munities. The love interest is said to
be delightful, and the comedy touches
are numerous. There is nothing in
drama that can be compared with this
new sort of film play. In it's bigness
and universally of quality it reminds
one of such great biographical novels

LOOK OUT FOR YOURSELF

Many a man takes care of others;
few of US take care of ourselves.
You can make no greater mistake
than to underestimate yourself, and
carelessly drag along the shoals of
unsuccessful attempts. Spruce up,
straighten up, be man!
You can be as good as you want to
be, and as successful as you aim to
be. The bad man seldom admires
good; the failure seldom sees vision
of success. Be alert; stand on your
toes, and grasp every opportunity.
Take a risk; the man who never took
a risk died long ago.
Fail; failures are nothing against
you. The world gives every man as
many trials as he wants-get up
when you fail and take yours. If you
have the spunk to try again we are all
with you. Nobody will ever count you
cut until you sprawl on the mat and
stay there. Get up, forget your fail
ures and look ahead. Success follows
failure as day the night. So fail if
you must, keep failing if you will, but
some day you will succeed.

Something Worth Seeing
Something That Pleases
Something You Appreciate
The Face at the Window

The Citizens Band has furnished
music free of charge for almost every
thing of public nature that has come
to Tarpon Springs for many years.
We have been told that they built
the band stand in City Hall park
which is a credit to the city. They are
ready at all times to help anything
that deserves help and now they are
not asking for help for themselves but
that you attend their production of a
corking good play tomorrow night at
the Venice Theatre and the money
raised will be used to purchase more
new instruments for your band and
will enable them to furnish better mu-
sic for you-what could be more liber-
al? -..
The better instruments the Citizens
Band has the better music they can
and will make. You appreciate their
free concerts and they have staged
this play for your pleasure and
amusement.
Those who have seen the rehearsals
say it is really a fine production-not
a horse play or joke, but class A
drama with vaudeville acts between
curtains. Not a drag for even one
minute.
We believe there will be a crowded
house and there should be.
These men have stuck together
through many adversaties and are
now an organization which you can
well feel proud of. Come and see
what kind of performers they are at
the dramatic art-we know they are
o. K. performers on musical instru-
ments.

wish to stress the very great i'm
portance of this drive. If you have not
already done so, l suggest that you
call general meeting of all your
chapter members, and organize for
this work.
Every member of your chapter
should use every effort in their power
to gather UP clothing, etc. 1t would
also probably be well to appoint a
large and influential committee to
properly advertise it, and to make a
house to house canvass in automobiles.
1t will be necessary to select a
storage place for the articles collect
ed; and, when the drive is over,
shall appreciate it if you will advise
this office of the number and kind of
articles shipped.
The supplies asked for are very
much needed in France and Belgium,
and sincerely hope that the Southern
Division will not fall behind other di-
visions in this work.
Recently Major Perkins, in France,
called on the Red Cross for $500
monograph records, and $50 were al
lotted to this division. The request
was circularized to the chapters in our
five states, and up to this time only
about Is records have been sent in.
This drive ended on March 10, and it
IS with much embarrassment that we
have to report to Washington Is rec
lords received instead of $50.

ing done by our chapters, I am,

PERIGRAMS
by Jack Raper)

Nobody loves fat man or a copy
reader.
Nobody hesitates about kicking a
coward, man or newspaper.
One mans ideal newspaper may be
another mans idea of punk one.
One reason reporters love their pa
pers is they are not consulted about
policy"
For one man who wishes to be up
lifted there are a million who wish to
be entertained.
A little nonsense now and then is
relished by the best of men and all of
the women and children.
NSone newspapers are so sensitive to
pain that they squeal when one of
their advertisers is stuck.
IcpoIleI WHO HAS route,
should never forget that there is diff
ference of only two letters between
"route" and 'rut."
Never tell your troubles to your
readers. You don't reduce the number
of your troubles but you may reduce
the number of you readers.
