Mary Pickford at the A. & C. Theatre
Next Week.

Comedy holds. full sway in "Amar-
lily of Clothes Line Alley" the next
Aircraft following "Stella Maris,"
which starts Mary Pickford, and
which will be exhibited at the A. & G.
theatre, Thursday night of next week.
While in every picture presenting
Miss Mary Pickford there has been
more or less comedy and the star
has time and again proven herself a
comedinne of rare ability as w
as an actress capable of any height
of emotional acting, it is said that
there has never before been Pick
ford photoplay wherein humor pre-
dominated to such an extent as in
this new story of the slum.
There are many moments of genu-
inc pathos and any number of thrills
in the course of the picture, but
laughter will hold away, overcoming
momentary predisposition to tears.
Throughout the story "Our Mary"
winsome, dainty withal, presents a
convincing figure of the little tene-
ment girl staying far afield into the
realms of the idle rich, lured by the
Establishments of a scion of wealth,
but returns at last to her natural en-
vironments. where she finds happiness.

Role Of Trapper From the Canadian
North Woods Said to Fit Geo.
Beban, Paramount Star, Like
the Proverb;al Glove.

AS Jules Lemaire, laughing, sing
ing, high-spirted and whole-souled
trapper from the great forests of the
Canadian wilds, George Beban in his
latest Paramount picture, "Jules of
the Strong Heart" hasfound a role
that is absolutely suited to his talents
and one Of which he finds opportunity
for the exercise of all his faculties
of character dehneation.
That combination of primitive kind
ness, robust spirits, and rollcking dis
position, coupled with gustly temper
and bravery of the highest order
make up character of the sort that
few besides Mr.. Baben can adequate
" portray and it is his ability in
this respect that has made him so
wonderfully successful in his Para
mount photoplays.
"Jules of the Strong Heart was
a powerful and vital short story which
appeared in Golfers, and from it
Frank x. Finnegan and Harvey F.
Thew have written a scenario that is
said to be virile, thrilling, full of the
milk ofshuman kindness, replete with
romance and the odor of the pine
forests.
The story is one of the high-hearted

LOS ANGELES IN PLAY.
Tom Mix's Picture Shows Thriving
California City.

Everybody who is interested in mo-
ton pictures-which means about
everybody, every-where-is anxious
to know aDout Los Angeles, for 1t IS
there that maay of the great films
are made. The William Fox picture
Western Blood" in which Tom Mix
is the star has a large part of its ac-
ton laid right in the city of Los An
geles and so when the picture was
created the scenes for it were made
in the actual place where they were
supposed to have occurred. This is one
OF the very few pictures that was
acturally taken at the place where
thew are suppored to have occurred.
The scene of this drama just nat
urally led to the city of Los Angeles
The place in real life has its exciting
sides and one of them is the visiting
of the men from the ranches of New
Mexico and Arizona. Most of these
visitors are actual friends of Tom Mix
and it is natural that he should writs
story about them.
So beyond the interest that comes
in this picture from the cleverness of
seeing Los Angeles as it really
is and to appreciate that is is big
thriving city situated in beautiful
land.
"Western Blood" will be shown at
the A. & G.. Theatre next week.

GERMAN EFFICIENCY"

Occasionally we still hear refer
ence to the much vaunted German
| efficiency" These references come
mostly from either positive pro-9er-
! man sympathiZers or from timorous
souls who throw fit whenever
| ''this dreadful war" is mentioned
People of intelligence have long ago
| learned to estimate this efficiency at
its true value, and have ceased to
stand in awe of it.
The efficiency of Germany is pure
~ an efficiency of constant applica-
tions. Her present militant condition
is the result of life time of unre-
mitting attention to every conceiva-
bic angle Of the game of war While
the other nations of the war were
quietly pursuing the paths of peace,
Germany was straining every nerve
and devoting all her accumulations
of men and means to the task of ere
,ating an army of armament before
which the world would find it i'm
possible to stand. During most of
this time She was hypocritically
participating is the Hague confer
ences and proposing the total disar-
'1ament of all nations, but in the
of recent developments We know
lat during all this discussion her war
reparations were never slackened.
Even Germany's efficiency in the
arts and sciences mas been made to
serve the dread Moloch of War. In
extending her influence among the
nations of the earth in these branch
es, she has been for years building
spheres Of influence" in other
words, nests and spies and potential
traitors against the day when their
services should be needed by the faith
erland.
Yes, Germany has efficiency.

truction of vessels by her sea vipers,
waen even women and children at
tempting to escape in open boats
have been shelled, mangled and sunk;
evidenced by her wanton destruction
Of civilian life by her air planes and
Zeppelins; evidenced by the deliberate
murder of prioners Of war who, by
all the laws fthe nations, should
have received honorable and humane
treatment.

reason than that she stood between
brutal tyrant and his intended vic

other nations against our own coun-

tative to our capital was shedding
crocodile tears over his forced depar-
ture and separation fom his "dear
friends in merica"-doubtleS he
took with him for the perusal of his
butcher master full proofs Of his
t-eachery while enjoying our hos

The Germany OF other days was
noted for efficiency, but that eff
cheney has peen prostituted to most
ignoble ends.
God save us from such efficiency!

BUY YOUR COAL NOW FOR WIN.
TER

Fuel Administrator R. W. Webb
says too much stress cannot be laid
on the fact that you must buy your
coal now or freeze next winter. This
, Sof2c Yn.gnC sound nEe 10Ae but
it is far from being one.
The following is q list of people
who should not put in their supply
Of fuel for next winter now. There
may be some others.
The gentleman who has been in
formed by the court that he is to be
me- " Lanoed on the 23rd OF Sept.
The householder who knows that
his house is going to burn down be-
fore Oct. l.
The fellow who has bann assurRd
by his doctor and minister that he will
soon be where the heat Is free.
The man who will have his resi-
ience astride of the equator from
September to June.
TO June.
The party who had II tons of coal
Cr 20 cords of wood left over from
last winter
The husband who has arranged to
spend the winter with his wife's relat-
ions.
The man who belongs to nice
warm club and had decided not to go
home at all hereafter.
Editors who advertise that they are
in market for spring poetry.
Hardy mariners in training to ac-
company Peary on his next dash for
the pole.
Persons going to the front and leav-
ing no one to the rear.
Pessimists desiring something that
will take their mnds of their own
troubles.
Wife's relations who have arranged
to spend the winter with the husband
Malefactors of great wealth who ex-
pect by that time to have gotten
what is coming to them.
Cigarette smokers who smoke a.
round munition plants.
Persons who are going to spend
the winter in Florida and will, there
fore, have nothing else to spend.
Automobile drivers who do not stop
to look up and down The track to see
if there is train coming.
Manufacturers operating brewries.
But persons other than these we
urgently advise to lay in their supply
of fuel, because winter has never yet
missed a date with the world. and
it is always much colder in the winter
than in the summer.

STANDING BACK OF THE GOV.
EMINENT.

Next to dishonor, war is the great
| est calamity that can befall nation.
We are now beginning to realize how
| far-reaching it's effects are. 1t is not
! too much to affirm that the war eff
fects to some degree the condition of
| life for every man, woman and child
in the country From the loss of
life itself the sacrifice runs all the
way down the scale to a slight de-
privation of comfort or luxury.
But for every widespread disaster
there is usually small modicum OF
! good to place in the other side OF the
| balance. It may not apparently
make a hairs weight of difference
against the i'll, but it is there and per-
ceptible if we look for it. What
have we OF good to set against the
evils of war?
Our answer would be, Greater ma
tional unity. A year ago we were for
the most part a country of lndlvld-
uals, individual communities, lndl-
vidual States. Men were pursuing
their own object, communities were
not looking beyond their own i'm
provement, State were caring for
their own people.
Now all horizon are broadened
when a man sees his on or his neigh
boris son going forth to war, his
thought involuntarily goes out to the
environment of that boy, the condi-
tions he will meet. and the govern
ment which provides or regulates
them. He realizes that the govern
ment will have to provide these boys
with the simple necessities. food,
clothing and shelter. It will also
have to 2rovide them with training,
tra 7srcrtation, weapons. artillery
and aircraft for their protection, me-
deal services and hospitals for their
cara, and q hundred other essentials.
'n,l +Ae man also begins TO realize
that is on to him in his individual
caraci5v to stand back Of the govern
N ant, to take his mart in providing
these absolutely necessary things in
his own rightful proportion, either
from his abundance Or from his bare
suGAc;ancv
And we need onlyto see the ban
ners Of the Third Liberty Loan in the
windows Of homes throughout the
land to understand how magnifi-
Gently the individuals have risen to
their duty and opportunity. Every
where in the homes Of the rich and
the homes Of the poor alike the ban
ners signal proudly: II have given
ps / can to the call Of the nation. It
is my nation and I am with it heart
and soul in the hour of its need"
We cannot estimate the aggregate
-acrfces which this snlendid show
ing has reouired. In manv cases it
meant the giving op of comforts, per-
hars Of cherished plans. But each
man who have subscribed for his bond
or bonds feels, that he is a con2poten
rart Of his country. that he stands Or
falls with it, and that it is country
worthy of his sacrifice He is in har-
ynony of feeling with his neighbor, his
dommunity, his State and his Nation.

HARRISON COUNTY COURT DE-
CIDES IN FAVOR OF MRS.
PIZATTI IN MATTER OF
WILL.
Chancery Court Gives Her Posses
sion of Mississippi Property
AS the Heir of Captain Pig
zati, Her Late Husband.

GULFPORT, Miss, June 27.-The
case Of Mrs. Frances Pizzati against
Robert Woodville and John Alonzo
{" oodville was decided in favor of
Mrs. Francies Pizzati, widow of the
late Captain Salvador Pizzati, giving
ner the Mississippi property os the
heir of Captain PiZZati.
The suit was a contest over will,
on the ground that Capt. Pizzati was
an old man, in feeble health, at the
time he executed said will, and was
influenced by John Woodville to the
extent that said John Alonzo Wood
vile induced him to make will de-
vising all of his disposable property
to Robert Woodville of Utilla, Spanish
Honduras father of John Alonzo
Woodville. Mrs. Pizzati brought suit
to set aside this will on the grounds
or undu influence on the part of said
John Alonzo Woodville, who was NAM
ed as executor in said will.
The evidence went to show that
Capt. Pizzati, at the time he executed
said will % days before his death,
was 76 years old, in feeble health,
suffering from a number of diseases,
and that John Alonzo Woodville was
his constant companion and confiden-
tial friend as well as his attorney.
Mr.. Woodville denied the charges,
saying that Capt. Pizzatti made the
will in gratitude to Robert Woodville
for saving his life~some forty years
ago on the rocky shore of Spanish
Honduras.
The jury after hearing the evil
dence decided that undue influence
had been practiced on Capt. Pizzatti
by Mr.. Wooville and set aside the
will.
This is the third case in the courts
of this county growing out of the said
will brought by Mrs. Pizzati against
the Woodvillea, each of which Mrs.
Pizzati has won.
