ture, "The Heart of Wetona," will ap-

feet During the filming of this picture

err and her sister, Constance, in a
beautiful bungalow directly outside the

Norma was idolized by the natives of
Idyllwild They never tired of watching
her work or watching her play. Before
she left the reservation the Indians
insisted upon giving a party in her
honor. A huge celebration consisting
of tribal dances and barbecue was
rendered her. She was made princess
of the tribe, the highest honor an In
dian tribe can bestow on woman

CAPT. WILLIAMS,
SENATOR HARRIS
SECRETARY, THERE

Cranston Williams, who was at the
helm of The Times Recorder when
the United States entered the war with
Germany, and who resigned to enter
the army, is visitor here today and
is being extended a warm welcome
by his many friends in Americas and
throughout Sumter county. He return
ed only recently from France, where
he participated in some of the heav-
lest fighting in the region about Metz,
in Alsace-Lorraine He went across
as first lieutenant of infantry, at
tached to the machine gun company
of the Fifty-Sixth regiment, and re-
turned wearing captains bars.
Capt. Williams won his frs COM
mission as a second lieutenant at
the first officers training camp at
Fort Mcpherson, and was accorded
the distinction If Icing among the few
officers graduated at that time to be
assigned to the regular army estap
lishment. He served for a time in
TEXAS and was designated to attend
the army machine gun school at Fort
Sill, Oklahoma, where he was later
graduated as machine gun expert
Following this he was for short
while an instructor in mao'1ne gun
merry at Texas army camp, but be-
ing anxious TO see active service at
the front he sought and secured a
transfer, being sent to France along
with other troops going at the time.

WIZ, j. Harris, and oa being dis
ck;u ged from he army he will go at
once to Washington to assume his
new duties. At present he is enjoy
ing brief furlough among his former
associates here. His army experience
has developed his physique wonder
fully, and speaking of the campaigns
in which he participated today, he
said he would not have missed being
in the midst of the fighting for any
thing in the world. "One war is
enough for the average man, though"

s NEGRO PUBLIC
BUILDINGS BURN;
SUSPECT WHITES

EATONTON, May 29.-DestructioR
by fire at almost the same time, be-
tween midnight and 2 O'Clock yester-
day. of five negro churches, two negro
schools and one negro lodge in the
eastern section of Putnam county, be-
lieved to have been the result of a
clash between a small party of whites
and negroes at Dennis Station, eight
miles from this city, caused a mass
meeting of Putnam county people yes
terday afternoon to offer a cash re-
ward of SLIGO for the arrest of the
persons responsible for the apparent
incendairism. At this meeting were a
number of negroes, leaders of the race
in Putnam county, who voted unanim-
Ously with the white people to coop
crate in work for law and order. White
people subscribed $4,000 towards a
fund to be used in rebuilding the ne
gro churches and schools. This fund,
it is stated, will be added to by pop
ular subscription from all parts of
Putnam.
The churches destroyed were the
Old Flat Rock church. Bells chapel,
Young's chapel, with school in the
same building, Reid chapel and Wards
chapel@ A school at Wards chapel
also a lodge hall and the Bethel school
were the other buildings fired.
officers believe the wholesale de-
struction of the churches and schools
used by negroes was the work of an
organized band of white men who be-
came incensed at actions of negro at
Dennis Station. 1t is claimed that this
negro, who made his escape, wanted
to be served a bottle of soda water
just as merchant there was closing
his store. The merchant refused and
the negro is alleged to have made
some insulting remarks about serving
white people and not serving a negro.
In the shooting which followed, a ne
gro known as Santa Claus was slight
ly wounded. Companions of the negro
who wanted the drink are said to have
taken sides in the trouble which STIR
red the community, and it appears,
caused the destruction of the negro
property during the early hours o
yesterday morning.
All of the churches burned were US
ed by negro Baptists, except one
Wards chapel being a Methodist
church, one of the largest and oldest
churches in Putnam county. 1t was
near here that William 6. Seward, who
was member of President Lincoln
cabinet, at one time taught school.

1T is not a league to prevent

within itself the germs of many
wars. 1t is a gigantic war trust.
If those who wrote it really wanted
to prevent war. they would have
permitted the men and women who
bear wars burdens, instead of the
rulers. to vote whether there should
be war.
The league covenant was drawn
up in secrecy. and American support
of it has been promoted by a tre-

which was paid for by taxation. We
have been picking our pockets to
