asks to enter his plea for peace. This
stranger, who in costume and bear
ing resembles the Christ, tells to the
war lords the history of humanity
from the time of Creation to the
present. The stories are set forth of
Noah and his ark; of the deluge; the
enslavement of the Jews; the career
of Moses; the saving of his people;
the Roman times; the birth of
Christ; His trial and crucifixion. The
plot is simple, but avoids the con-
ventional and is presented with
many human touches which brought
laughter and tears frosn the audi
ence. 1t is played with great sim
cerity and vividness. While theat-
realism is avoided, the story is dra-
matte; there is no flag waving to
provoke applause, but the incidents
chosen are realistic in appeal. There
will be two performances daily of
this great picture during the week,

Bridau, in the Balzac masterpiece,
The He ar of the Family" OF
all the Distinguished portraits Mr..
Skinner has contributed to the stage
none is better nor more pleasantly
remembered than that of the blus-
tering colonel.
One Of Balzac's most dramatic
romanees formed the basis of the
play. Balzac shows us the home of
a sexagenarian land owner in the
little town of Issoudon. Although
the old man is bachelor, his house
is dominated by a beautiful and
magnetic young woman, who has so
infatuated her master that he is
scarcely more than the servnt of
his servant. AT the same time the
ardent Flora is having love affair
with a dashing young officer, Com
nIandant Max Gilet, and together
they plan to secure the old mans
fortune and flee to Paris. This is
the posture of things when appears
on the scene Colonel Philippe Bri-
dau, the old mans nephew. A cool,
masterful and audacious soldier is
Philippe, and no sooner has he set
foot in his uncle's house than he
has made them all feel his power.
But il is not until after a success
sion of happenings full of suspense
in the highest degree that Philippe
restores the honor Of the family.
A duel with Max and an attempted
assassination of himself lead to an
unexpected climax

Much like the Dolly sisters in
charm, attraetiyeness and ability,
the Barr twins are featured this
week as one of the headline attrac-
tons at the Orpheum. They have
youth and grace and beauty, in ad-
dition to their pronounced ability.
Maud Earl in "The Vocal Verdict"
will be the other stellar attraction.
The song offered by her tells of the
death of novelties in vaudeville.
Bessie Remple's offering, "A Child

scribed as a mystery farce by Tom
Barry. The actress appears as the

"Maytime," Rida johnson Young's
novel play, with musical setting by
Sigmund Romberg, will come to the
Boyd Auto week, March 9, under
THE direction of Messrs. Lee and J.
J.. Shubert, with the entire cast of
the long New York run. This re-
1narkable play ran for one year and
four months in New York, five
months in Chicago and three
months in Philadelphia. All the &C
tion of the play is laid in an old
mansion in Washington Square,
New York, but, as the story open
ing in 1870, carries down through to
the present day, there is a striking
series of picturesque representa-
tons of metropolitan life at four
widely differing periods, the salient
characteristics of each era being
faithfully reproduced. The story is
one Of inherited affections whereby
grandchildren realize the happiness
denied their ancestors two genera
tions before. The cast includes
John Charles Thomas, Carolyn
Thomson, as prima donna; John I.
Murray, theleading comedian; Ezra

score of others. There is, of course,

Grand Opera in War Time

IF grand opera production has
been difficult of success for
= many American promoters in
past years, is it doubly beset with OBJ
stacles during war times. Hedged
about on all sides by staggering
items of expense, from the highest
priced tenor or prima donna down to
the cost of programs, grand opera
would indeed appear to be hazard
Gus undertaking. The three estab-
lished organizations, the Metropol-
itan, of New York; the San Carlo
Grand Opera company, and the Chi
cago opera, assembled their forces
as usual, it being understood, Of
course, that the San Carlo is the only

either selling their cows or are expect
ling to sell soon. This condition is to
be deplored. No doubt better days
are coming for this line of business.
We need to pull together, weed out
our boarding cows, keep nothing but
good producers and feed these pro-
ducers better. If we can get our Cow
Testing Association going, we can
soon tell which cows are paying and
which are not. Often two or three
cows in a herd which eat much, but
furnish little milk or butter fat, pull
down the profits of the entire herd
and make the owners lose in the game
Records show that in the Wilson
County Association 1902 of the 1O3
cows started on test at the beginning
of the year were sold as Improbable.
In Bradley County, 108 of the 44O
entered, were old for the same reason
wedding out the poor producers, feed
ing better ration to those remaining
will make big difference in profits
even at the same price for butter and
milk or butter fat. 1t is difficult to
see why a dairyman, would not see
the b igadvantage in getting man
who will make the tests for him,
who is prepared to do it and do it
right, then get together on their pro-
blems of more pounds of butter fat
per pound feed, on better products,
and better prices for these products.
228 cows have been signed up for
the Testing Association. 800 are
needed to make it go. The price is
$500 per cow per year. Is it worth
$500 to know whether your COW is a
boarder or worker? Nothing but a
test will show this. Every man in the
jefferson county association signed
up for the second year and at rs
cent increase per COW. One East Tenn
dairyman made $1,658.25 more net
profit in 1918 than he made in 1917,
with less cows and with feeds and
labor advanced more than the price
of his dairy products. 1t is business
proposition, and one that the dairy
men of Blount County cannot AFFORD
to overlook.

A BOUQUET FOR THE TIMES.
A County Papers Farm News.

In a late issue l INDUCED in bit
of criticism of county newspapers,
saying that most of them do not pay
enough attention to the agricultural
interests and developments of their
counties. | still think / was justl-
fled in so saying, although l must
saw, too, that more of them than ever
before are giving space to farm
topics and publishing matter of spe-
cial interest to farmers. In fact,
some Of them are evidently giving
more space than thought to this
matter. Too often the matter used
is of such a general nature that it
fails to hit very hard, and now and
then it is of such a foreign nature
that it fails to hit at all. l recall
an East Tennessee paper that made
its first plunge into agriculture by
printing clipping about how to kill
cattle Ticks, when there had never
been a cattle tick in the county!
But l have just run across another
East Tennessee paper that has in it
a farm department of the right sort.
It is The Maryville Times. The de-
partment is called "Blount County
Farm News" In the issue l saw
there was news about the Huffstetler
boys, their lime crusher, and their
clover field; about the next Town
send community meeting; about the
Andersons and the Russells and j.
L. Jeffries, and how they make
money with hogs; about John Hitch,
his "cows' paradise" and his Angus
cattle.
That is the right sort of farm
dope" for the county paper to give
its readers-live farm news about
live farmers right at home. OF
course the paper need not restrict
itself to this; but it might go far be-
fore finding matter that would take
its places.
The Times is to be congratulated
on its arm news.-E. E. Miller in
Southern Agriculture.

Blount County Exhibit
FARM NEWS

Blount county has been asked a.
gain this year to put on an exhibit at
at the Fair to be held at Knoxville in
October We have county with a
variety and quality of products uneX-
celled in the state. 1t is true that the
season has been unfavCrable and that
we cannot show our products to as
good advantage as if we had been
blessed with a normal season, but if
we select some of the best Of every
thing we grow and then put these
products on display in an attractive
style, we will still be able TO make a
strong add for Blount County. Each
farmer and farmer wife who has pro-
ducts of any kind of unusual merit
should save sample that product.
The exhibit will be graded on variety,
quality and attractiveness. The great
difficulty in the past has been in get
ting the products saved for exhibit.
This year we want to show the best
we have in every line of products
from the farm, garden and home.
These exhibits will bear the name
of the farm and home furnishing them
and will be an advertisement for that
farm and home. One exhibit last year
carried IS varieties and strains of
garden products and seeds. Every
thing of economic value from mus
tard seed to pumpkins should be saw
ed and shown. We want the world to
know that we can grow almost every.
thing in Blount county that is needed
OF supply human wants, and if we do
that successfully our men and women
who see the exhibit will want to come
to our county to settle and live and
share with US the blessings we enjoy.
Every farmer who has good hay,peas,
grains, beans, popcorn, broomcorn,
peanuts, potatoes, fruits, potatoes,
melons, pumpkins or anything which
would help to show our county to
good advantage, should save sample
Of the product and notify your coun-
ty agent or Home Demonstration ag-
ent. Do this for your own and coun-
tvs sake.

PUPILS CONTROL IN
ALL RUSSIAN SCHOOLS
Boys of is Who Are Unable to
Read Are Admitted to the
Universities.

Pupils, instead Of teachers, control
the schools of Russia under the boil
shevik regime, according to two Eng
lishmen, one Of them an experienced
schoolmaster, who have just returned
from Russia.
Boys and girls are herded indis-
crlminately and there Is no discipline,
say the Englishmen. Pupils control
the teachers. In a Kolmna school a
youth Of eighteen was appointed com
missioner Of the institution and was in
charge of all teachers. On one occa-
sion he closed the school for q week,
as a protest against the action of the
master, who had reprimanded a pupil.
Each class has its own committee
and usually the most popular boy rep
resents the others at the masters
council. These committees not only
direct the masters, but control the dis
tribution Of food which is provided for
chief cause for any school attendance
at all.
Pupils do exactly as they please,
walking into the classroom and leav-
ing 1t while a lesson Is In progress.
No punishment of any kind is inflict-
ed on the pupil, as each pupil is his
wv mentor as to right and wrong.
No home work Is set, the pupil do
Ing oil his school work during the
hours set apart for each session.
Attendance Is not compulsory, or
even regulated by rule, each n at
tending classes or staying away, as
he sees at. No marks for good work
are allowed, and consequently none
for the sluggard who makes no at
tempt at scholastic attainment.
The same chaotic conditions were
observed by the Englishmen in the
universities and other seats of higher
education. Any boy of sixteen may
enter without qualification, though he
may be unable to read.
