few seconds.
How he accomplishes these marves no
one has ever been able to learn. Various
theories have been advanced, but none

himself, Houdini smiles and says nothing,
letting the guesses go on Movie fans will
be able to judge for themselves, because
many of his most famous tricks are per-
formed before the camera.
One of the most marvellous scenes ever
filmed is shown in THE Grim Care,
when two airplanes crash together in
midair and fall 5000 feet to the ground.
This was not written in the script. but
the cameraman had presence of mind
enough to keep on grinding when the
stunt came of.

he is called upon forSseveral dangerous

her charming personality perfectly.
There isn't duh moment in Sadie

roaring climax. And Miss Burke just
romps through her part with a gay aban-
don that makes her more appealing than
ever. The crowds who have seen this
new Paramount comedy have had moth

every angle.
The cast appearing support of Miss
Burke is exceptionally good. The pops-

For the Good Of
the, Community

IT is less than two months until the one
hundredth anniversary of Alabama's
statehood. The legislature last winter
passed an act providing for the celebra-
ton of this event. and to meet the ex-
penses of organization and preliminary
work appropriated $4,000.
Ten thousand dollars is small sum for
this purpose, but the legislators having in
view the financial condition of the state,
could not see their way clear to increase
the amount.
Thomas M. Owens director of archives
and history, was made. chairman of the
anniversary commission. He employed a
press agent early in the year to keep the
matter before the people of the state
Some publicity work hasa been done.
There has been a lot of talk about pa
geants and floats and celebrations of va
rious kindsN
So far, SO good> But in all this time
there has not been one tangible suggestion
made. Not one local organization has
been formed, nor has any of the various
industrial, commercial or civic bodies
made any definite step towards proper
celebration of the event.
Two months is very short period in
which to make preparations for proper
observance OF such an event as this. Two
months is too brief time in which to
give the matter the publicity it deserves
and that will draw the people to the COM
munitieS where the celebrations are to be
held.

have no place. Until they are eliminated
success cannot be had.
The growth and development of Ala
bama in the 100 years of her statehood
have been nothing short Of marvellous
From forest of 100 years ago she first
grew into a rich agricultural state, rich in
potentialities if not in money; and then
took on an industrial growth that marks
her as one of the great states.
All this was accomplished by her hardy
sons, despite the blight of war that took
off the greater part Of her virile manhood
ruined their homes, loaded the state with
a burdensome debt with which she has
: struggled half a century, and turned
loose upon her an ignorant, illiterate and
irresponsible population Of hundreds Of
thousands who were helpless to do for
themselves.
With all these handicaps to contend
with it is nothing short Of remarkable that
the commonwealth has come from under
this burden and accomplished as much as
has been accomplished in the century of
statehood just coming to a close.
1t is not just to the men and women who
made the state, shaped it's destinies and
worked out the hard problems of other
days, and planned for the future, that this
event SO deliberately planned for should

The increase Is due to heavy Gov

has been under such control that there

ket than is usual, and collections for
the year just closed were 25 per cent.
better than those OF 1917.
Marshall Field & Co. report normal

say this weeks distribution of dry
goods was less than the corresponding
week OF 1917. Road sales for imme-
date and future delivery were also less.

COFFEE MARKET.

s.i3l6s

The market for coffee futures showed
renewed weakness yesterday. The rail-
lies of Thursday not only were lost, but
prices went to new lows for the move
ment under further scattering liquidation
and selling attributed TO importing in
terests, although there seemed 10 be con-
siderable doubt whether ii was against
recent business in the cost and freight
market. May contracts sold off TO l53Oc.
and December TO l5c., making declines
of 40 to so points from Thursdays clos
ing figures and OF no less than eco to
$50 points from the high figures touched
on the opening day last week. The
local spot market was nominally &c. for
Rio rs at lie, but unchanged for Santos
at 22@22iac. for As.
