"Hearts Of the WOrld.'

Hearts of the World" the pro-
duction that is conceded to be ?. w.
Griffth's masterpiece, SURPRISING
both his Intolerance" and "The
Birth of a Nation," will be the at
traction at the Academy of Music,
Orangeburg, January 18th, two days.
The fact that Mr.. Griffith spent eigh-
teen months On the battlefelds of
France with his company of Ameri-
can players would seem to indicate
that "Hearts of the World" is a war
play. To the contrary, and on the
authority of the famous director
himself, it is not about the war, but
about people to whom the war comes
and for this reason it makes the
war real. Many of the recent films
have been devoted so exclusively to
photographs of fighting that, for all
they have revealed, the war might be
limited to the scenes recorded by the
camera. Others have so insulted in
tellingence and pure patriotism with
theatrical rubbish, tacker-on melo-
drama, clumsy studio fakes and 9TH
er devices that many persons are in
clined to believe the producers guilty
of b~urlesqueing the var, were such
a thing thinkable. Mr.. Griffith has
proved by his "The Birth of a Ma
ton and other master works that
he is a man who does big things in
a big way; one who stops at moth
ing, however seemingly insurmount-
| able, in his honest efforts to faithful
ly reproduce a given condition. Hence
the very fact that Mr.. Grifith's name
and reputation are back of "Hearts
of the World" is an assurance that
local theatre patrons are to be treat
ed to something as real as it is CO.
lossal.
The players engaged by Mr.. Crit
fifth to 90 over to France with him
included Lillian and Dorothy Gish,
Robert Harron, Kate Bruce, George
Fawcett, Robert Anderson, George A.
Siegmann and Master Ben Alexander.

Farmers Can Get Nitrate.

Mr.. J. J. Heard received a tele-
gram from Washington Tuesday in
forming him that he had been ap-
pointed distributing agent for this
county for the government allot-
ment of nitrate of soda. Mr.
Heard states that he received
the necessary application blanks
Tuesday night, and that he has re-
quested all of the banks in the coun-
ty to act as assistants in getting the
blanks properly filled out and filed.
The farmers may, therefore, call at
their respective banking places and
secure blanks, fill them out and file
them with one of the banks. This
should be done at once, as the time
is now very limited. This matter
was in the hands of the county dem
onstrator, Mr.. Floyd, but on account
of his illness he has been unable to
attend to it, and Mr.. Heard was re-
quested to handle it in this county.

PLANNING FOR EARTH ROADS
Bearing That Location and Design Of
Dirt Roads Have on Future I'M
p%rovement Emphasized.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
In view of the present widespread
activity in every form of road build
ing and since nearly all public roads
are laid out originally as earth roads,
the bureau of public roads emphasizes
the bearing that the location and de-
sign of dirt roads have on future high
way improvement. In locating and de-
signing public roads the following con-
siderations should be borne in mind !:
Sharp curves should be avoided be-
cause they are a menace to traffic.
The width should be ample for ve-
hicles to pass each other without leav-
ing the Travelled way.
If q road ver becomes of any con-
siderable importance, its users prob
ably will demand that all the sleeper
grades be reduced to the lowest maxi
mum that would conform to the gen.
eral topography of the region which
the road traverses.
Let the road planners remember that
aside from the advantages to traffic
of a short route, each mile of addition.

yearly expense for maintenance, and
this alone may warrant the extra ex-

TORN BY DISORDER
Little Montenegro a Land of
Eternal Strife.
Centuries-Old Customs Of Feuds ant
Vendettas Maintained - Republic
cans and Monarchists Keep
the Country in Turmoil.

While the allied statesmen at Paris
deliberate on the fate of the ma
tons of Europe. Montenegro contin-
Ties its century-lOng customs of feuds,
vendettas, shooting trays and inter
nal strife, and seems outwardly TO
give little attention to the fate re-
Served for it by the great powers.
There is a semblance of a local gov
eminent, but Serbia exercises a pre-
ponderating influence in the affairs of
the country.
There is n faction of the people
which desires a return of King
Nicholas and the restoration of the
monarchy. There is constant strife
between the ~royalists and the repub-
licans, the disorders usually taking
the form of fatal shooting combats
in the mountains. Feeling runs high.
The republicans accuse the mon
archists of hiring members Of the
comitadje, desperate mountaineers
who respect neither law nor life, to
kill the leaders of their party.
These shooting and stabbing affairs
usually take place In sections where
the royalists are the strongest. The
casualties sometimes are serious. Not
a day goes by but the American doc
tors attached to the Red Cross mis-
sion at Cettinje. POdgoritza and Kol-
acin are not called up to treat victims
of these encounters. At Podgoritza
there have been as high as twenty
hospital at one time.
There also are occasional border
fights between the Montenegrins and
the Italians and Albanians. The feel
ing between these races Is extremely
violent. When the Associated Press
correspondent was passing through
the small frontier town of Plavnitza.
at the head of Lake Soutari. there was

grins preparing to attack an Italian
garrison on the opposite side Of the
lake. Many OF these Montenegrins,
who were poorly clothed and
equipped, were mere boys of sixteen
and seventeen. Some Of the older
soldiers had beer TO the United States
and boosted American citizenship. All
professed n desire to give up fighting
and return to America. The attack
on the Italians took place the next day
and many casualties on both sides are
reported.
Slightly smaller than the state of
Connecticut in area, Montenegro has
a population of less than a quarter of
n million. Even this small number

the soil to support life. The country
is rocky, desolate and barren. 1t
might be called n huge pile of stones.
An American visitor remarked that its
national emblem should be a tomb
stone. Its mountains for the most
part are woodless and bare, and its
valleys are made productive only by
careful husbandry Of the soil and in
tensive farming.

With the profit the association derived

the association bought eight purebred
bull calves. The method by which
these calves were distributed resem-

OF RABBIT PROBLEM
Attractive Possibilities Are Quite
Often Misleading.
Before Starting on Enterprise II 10
Advisable to Consider How AMI
mails Can Be Disposed Of to
Best Advantage.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
The attractive. not to say startling,
mathematical calculations which are
sometimes made In estimating breeding
possibilities of rabbits not infrequently
have led persons to engage In rabbit
raising without proper study OF the
problem. Before starting on this en-
terprise, II is advisable also for one
to consider well how such rabbits as
can be raised may be disposed Of. In
the vicinity Of towns where there are
restaurants. hotels and boarding
houses, arrangements can usually be
made to furnish market men or land
lords a regular number OF rabbits
weekly. But one should moi begin rails
ing rabbits on a large scale In a To-
cality where people are unaccustomed
to eating them. No breeder can ex-
pect to make a profit until he has de-
veloped a market. He can demonstrate
the desirability Of the meat Of young
rabbits to his neighbors and sometimes
TO other agencies. II a breeder Is not
able to carry out IN educational cam
palgn singly, he should endeavor to or
ganize with others In such M under
taking. BY combining they can save
cost In advertising and stabilize their
output.
Rabbits OF recognized breeds con
forming in size, build and color to ac-
cepted standards are always in de-
mand for breeding stock. Those born
Of registered parents are preferred and
are spoken Of as "pedigreed." They
can be registered II the owner so de-
sires. The cost Of keeping pedigreed
or registered stock is no more than
that of ordinary stock and the returns
are considerably greater. Such stock
can usually be disposed OF by adver-
Using in poultry and pet journals.
II there Is not sufficient home demand.
Rabbits for meat are sold at greater
profit when from two TO four months
Of ge. Ordinarily they are shipped
to market alive in crates, like poul-
try.
