william S. Hart in the Money Cor
ral' is one of the features today and
tomorrow at the Crescent theatre.
The Money Corral" deals with west
ern life, but the plot is laid in the
east as well as the west, which
makes the picture doubly interesting.
Everybody knows Hart as the master
in western pictures and he retains
his reputation in his latest offering.
The other feature is Children
Pay" starring Lillian Gish. The fact
that Miss Gish stars in this picture
proves that the picture is a good one.
Miss Gish plays a pathetic part in
the picture and it gives an oppor-
tunity to portray her art to its best
advantage. Miss Gish will be remem-

S.. WHITE CLUB
NAMES OFFICERS
Francis S. Cantrell Elected
President at Annual
Banquet
AWARD HIGH CUNNERS

The annual banquet and meeting OF
the s. S. White Gun Club was held last
night at the Bingham Hotel. Besides
the usual election of officers and business
planned for the present year, the mem-
bers who won the various club prizes
during 1918 through their skill with
their fowling pieces were justly reward
ed with the trophies they were entitled
to.
For the first time in years there was
a change in the list of officers elected.
This was made possible through the
voluntary retirement OF W. l.. White,
who has been acting president for the
last fifteen years, and the resignation
of Charles II. Heite, as treasurer, ow-
ing to poor health.
This resulted in a new ticket being
made up and elected as follows: Presi-
dent. Francis S. Cantrell: vice president,
]. Maxwell Bullock recording secretary,
Frank l.. Hse; treasurer and field Sec
retary, w. Edgar Robinson; captain,
George Gray; directors, Charles II. New
