AMERICAN MOVIES
IN BRAZILIAN TOWNS
BY Associated Pres.

Rio Grande do Sui, Brazil, September
20.-An American visiting small towns in
Brazil can easily crafty his desire for
home scenery. Whatever the place, large
or small, he is sure to find on the main
street at least one moving picture the
atre and never fails to see there an
American production; in fact seldom
anything else.
The Associated Press correspondent had
occasion 70 make trip on a Brazilian
coastwise steamer which made stops at
the ports of Paranagua, San Francisco
do Sui, Florianopols and Rio Grande,
the latter being the largest with about
900 inhabitants. In these typical
towns, as in the smaller communities of
the United States, the moving picture
seems to be the chief source of evening
entertainment.
Adjoining the foyers of the theatres are
always to be seen posters and photo
graphs of well-known American moving
picture stars sent from the United States
with the film and with the captions still
in English. These are usually supple
mented, however, by brilliant poster
done in hand by local artist, with Por-
tuguese text, emphazing the thrilling
features of the production.
The North American visitor may dis
cover that he has seen the film at home
two or three years ago, but even so, he
will find something new in the manner
in which film is presented in Brazil.
Here instead of a continuous picture,
the film is cut at critical junctures of
the plot and there follows a flash on the
screen of dos minutes de intervallo.'
The lights go up and thus for an in
terval of two minutes the audience is
held in suspense wondering what will
happen next.
Always the theatres are filed to ca
pacity and the BraziIians discuss the
merits of American actors and actresses
of the screen as Familiarity as any NOV
ing picture enthusiast in the UNIFIED
States The comedians are intensely
popular, and there is one, distinguished
for being extraordinarily fat, to whom
the Brazilians have given the name OF
Chico Boia," meaning Little Bull"
The advent of film showing Chico
Boia," combined with that of Spanish
ventriloquist, was made the occasion of
a gala night at the moving picture the
atre in the little town of Paranagua,

members of their committees-but
many societies send one or more Of
their employees as well. In the case
of those who are not able themselves
to afford the trip, it is common
thing for scholarships to be offered,
both by central bodies and by local
societies. which cover the whole cost
of the week, including travelling eX-
penses. These scholarships are some
times awarded as the result of an eX-
animation. at. other times merely on
the Judgment of the committee. Tns
lecturers are for the most part menu
bers of the staff of the Cooperative
union; when outside people are reqdf-
sitioned they are paid their out-3f-
pocket expenses. and there is no out
lay on large fees. as is the case W II
Chautauquas in America.
The essence of the summer school
idea is practical democracy; its gen.
eral teaching is to emphasize the
duties and responsibilities of citizen
ship, and it's special teaching, in the
case described, is to show the cooper
ative movement and its members in
their proper relationship to those
duties. There is no departure from
this aim, either in the lectures or the
social side of the schools. which is al
most equally important.
Needless to stay, the atmosphere Of
the schools varies greatly, according
to the type of the students or lecturers
who happen to attend them At the
ideal school there is an almost con-
tinuous discussion of the disputed
points of the movement by small
groups gathered together in the
grounds or by those who are walking
or driving together. At other times
the holiday spirit is more in the as
cendancy, and as soon as the lectures
and discussions are disposed of there
is a tendency to dispense in search of
amusement. To a certain extent The
scholarship system is responsible for
sending many people to these schools
simply in order to give them a good
authority are disposed to criticize it
from this point of view; others point
out that the majority of the people
who attend these schools have to do
so at the sacrifice of any other holt
days, for the nature of their work
does not allow OF any longer absence,
and that it is, therefore, not reason
able to criticize them if they wish 10
get out of it as much pleasure as pos
sible in addition to instruction
The great value of the schools lies
undoubtedly in the fact that they
bring people from all parts Of the
United Kingdom who are interested in
the same movement into close contact
with one another A large part of the
effect would be lost if the numbers
attending any one school were in
creased so that it was not possible 10
accommodate all the students under
one roof or to keep up the sense of
personal friendship. For this reason
it is found desirable that there should
be a large number of these schools es4
tablished in different places, but that
they should take in students from diff
ferent neighborhoods. It is hoped that
now that peace is restored an interna-
tional element will be introduced and
that students will be sent over from
America and other countries ito take
part in the work of the schools.

It SHOULD Be IN
EVERY HOME, SAYS
RANDOLPH CO. MAN
He Was Speaking of Dreco,
the Root and Herb Medi-
cine, Which Gave Him
Quick Relief From Rheu-
matism and Kidney
Trouble

II think every home in this county
should have a bottle of Dreco in it,
are the words of that well-known farmer,
Mr.. E. L. Jones, who has lived all his
81 years near Pittman, Randolph county,
Alabama.
''Since taking Dreco am feeling bet
ter than in the past is years. I thought
was getting too old for any medicine
to do me much good, for l had rheu-
matism all over my body; every joint and
muscle in me ached. My back ached
over my kidneys SO that it panied me
to stoop over, or to climb steps. MY
bowels were bound up so that l had to
take some kind of medicine for them
each night My liver was also inactive
and I frequently had headaches. dizzy
spells and foul breath
Every day | would see in the papers
about somebody right near home that
was praising Dreco for having cured them
OF the same troubles as mine, SO I bought
a bottle, and right there is where my
pains began to end. Dreco got my bowels
acting fine; the liver got active. so that
the dizzy spells ceased My kidneys be.
came normal and regular, and thai
knocked out the rheumatic pains in my
joints and muscles. 1 haven't had a
pain in my back for some time. and
stoop and bend as l please. Dreco has
sure knocked out my troubles. SO thai
say to all who suffer as 1 did, gel
Dreco and get over your pains"
When the kidneys become deranged and
fail to strain the poisons from the blood
rheumatism is very apt to follow. The
only way to clear the system of rheu-
matism is to get the kidneys and bowels
to acting right. thereby eliminating the
poisons from the system, for this Drecc
cannot be excelled.
All good drug eists now sell Dreco and
is highly recommended in Birmingham
by Norton Drug company. Dreco is also
sold in Bessemer by the Fulton Drug
company. In Fairfield by Halls phar-
macy. and in Wylam by Central phar-
macy.--Ady.
