From now on there will be less

1t speaks well for Punta Gorda
that, waiic a few men were slight
ly intoxicated Christmas, there
were no plain DRINKS, no fights

whites. A few negroes were up

violations of the law and were
sentenced accordingly. Pun a

are not to be heard under the can
Cpy of heaven? If such is your
dream, you are in error. In both

warfare is still existing and it is
the belief of many that it will
continue for several months, if
not for years. Germany and Rus

reap the whirlwind.

that will interest men, any man.
A girl, away from her village

virtue of her talent-the carving

on the edge CT the abyss of dis

over. She does not even slip.
1t is the slipping over into a
seamy life that many producers
consider essential to a story. The
exhibitors are now becoming unan-
imous in the opinion that it is just
such treatment that causes moth
ers to refrain from sending their
children and also causes unpleas-
