SENATOR CARTER GLASS.

Governor DAVIS mas done the
unexpected thing. He has also
done the big thing. While his
appointment of Carter Glass to
fill out the unexpired term of
Thomas S. Martin as United
States Senator will come as a
surprise to the wiseacres and pol
itical prophets who had forecast
the selection of Harry St. George
Tucker for the place, the APP
pointment will be hailed with
satisfaction by the people from
the Potomac to the sea.
The life and career of the new
senator parallels the rise of other
remarkable characters this re-
public has produced. If there is

Officials of the State Depart
nient of Health have completed
tables of great value and interest
showing the onset, spread, and
subsistence of the epidemic, it's
ettect on the several classes or
ge-groups of the population,
and its serious consequences
with regard to the public health
and death-rate.
One simple sentence tells much
OF the story. The fve-year
monthly death-rate, 1913 to 1917
inclusive, was l4.21 per thousand
of population, but in October
1918, With influenza at it's apex
i'll the State, the death ratehad
mounted to SIS 2 per thousand of
population, or nearly four times
the normal monthly average. In
that fatal month 1894 cases
resulted in 7,24O deaths, prob
ably setting a disease DEATH
record never before approached
in the history OF the State.
Health Department statistics
show the peculiarities of the
epldemic's effects. Individuals
between the ages of twenty and
thirty years furnished thirty per
cent of influenza deaths. while
one-half o. all fatalities came
from those ranging in age from
fifteen to tllirty-five years.
Among children under the ge
OF one year there were 1,1l9I
deaths, or II per cent of the
total. Reasonable doubt exists,
according to Health Department
officials, as to whether all of the |
deaths among infants attributed
to influenza were caused by that |
disease rather than by some OF |
the usual diseases of babyllood.
People between the ages of sol
and 81 appeared to have been
better able to withstand the at
tacks Of the germ than those Of
any other age-group, furnishing
but l s of the deaths, or total
OF 28S out of a population in
tuat group of IS, 1876. In fact
there were but ,119 deaths, 9.Sl
per cent OF the aggregate, among
those Of IS years and UP. In
dlcative of the rapid subsistence
OF tile disease, and Of generally
improved iealtll conditions thisi
year, are figures showing that,
while deaths from all causes in
January, 1919, were ,436 in ex-
cess Of the hve-year average.

Whole armies have seen duels in the

But duel on the oceans bed-a fight
to the death between divers at the bot
tom of the sea-that, up to a few weeks

put it into film form in his latest Para
mount-Artcraft Special picture, "The
White Heather" which comes here on
Wednesday, 1t was taken at the bottom
of the Pacific ocean by cameramen inside
the newly-invented Williamson subma-
rlne apparatus.
This is just one of many extraordinary
bits of action in this production, which
establishes beyond question the interna-
tional reputation of Mr.. Tourneur as a
producer of massive pictures. The dra-
matte story is based on the play of Cecil
Raleigh and Henry Hamilton, which ran
with enormous success at the Drury Lane
Theatre in London The same lavishness

Wallace Reid. Friday.

There is only one Wally Reid in motion
pictures and that accounts for his great
popularity as every picture fan knows.
Did you see him in "The Roaring
Road?" Wasn't that crackeriack? Did
you notice his class?
He has one of these parts in "4 cure
Firedp' his latest starring vehicle based
upon one of o. Henry's celebrated stories
1t will be shown at our theatre next Fri
day.
In this superb photocomedy Mr.. R cid
is seen as young man in love with the
daughter of stern railroad magnate who
.withholds his consent to the marriage of
his daughter until the young man has
worked three months at some employ
ment without being fired.
That doesn't mean much to most per-
sons, but it meant a great deal to man
of the stamp portrayed by Mr.. Reid.
How he wins out after many narrow es-
capes, some serious, others ludicrous,
makes up one of the most delightful pic
ture subjects ever shown at this or any
other theatre.
You will want to see this photoplay,
for it is one of Wallys best. When we
say that, we say much. We will leave
the verdict to you. Don't forget the date
and don't forget to come early.

Alice Brady, Monday.

''The World to Live H." which Select
Pictures offers Monday, is one of the best
Alice Brady pictures that has ever ap-
peared upon the screen. Miss Brady has
a role for which she is we'll fitted-that of
typical American girl whose one ambi-
ton is to get all the fun she can out of
life without paving for it. This particular
young woman is of the Salamander type.
She is forever playing with fire but
miraculously always escapes being burn
ed. 1t is only when she finds true love
that she learns that there is something
more to life than merely getting all YOU
can out of it.
Miss Brady is ably assisted by re-
markable cast, each excellently adapted
for his or her particular role Among
those in the cast are W. P. Carleton, Jr.,
and Virginia Hammond, both well known
on the legitimate stage; Earle Metcalfe,
Robert Schable, Zyllah Shannon and Anne
Cornwall.

Catherine Calvert, Tuesday.

The vehicle selected for Catherine CAL
vert's new Frank A. Kenney production
is a Dhotoplay especially written for the
popular star by E. Lloyd Sheldon, the
famous playwright. The picture provides
modern story, the scenes of which are
laid in the South at the present time.
The story was picturized by Bennett Mus
son, who has adapted for the screen a
number of well known successes.
The title of the photoplay is marriage
for Convenience, " and Miss Calvert plays
the role of Natalie Rand, Southern So
ciety belle. Sidney Olcott is responsible
for the direction.
