STRAND THEATER TO
SHOW FAIRBANKS film
"His Majesty, The American" 10 che
First Release Of Doug. Fairbanks
big Four" Productions

It is doubtful if any motion picture
was ever awaited with as much in
terest and anticipation in MARKETS.
as Douglas Fairbanks new picture
Ellis Majesty, The American" which
will be the attraction at the Strand
Theater, Friday and Saturday, Sep
TENDER 10 and 20.
Something more than a mere in
tereat in q motion picture lies back
of this anticipation, for ellis Ma
iesty, the American" is Douglas Fair
banks first independent production
and marks the first release of United
Artists Corporation, the so-called big
Four"
In January of 1919 the entire
amusement world was startled by the
formation of the United Artists AS
ISOLATION. This association was form
ed by Mary Pickford, Charlie Chap
lin, Douglas Fairbanks and D. W.
Griffith. These artists conceded to
be the screens foremost producers,
after having released their pictures
for number of years through vari-
Gus distributing companies decided
that to assure their best work and in
order to have full independence for
the highest expression of their art,
they would, upon the completion OF
their then-existing contracts. release
their own pictures, direct to the the
aires of the country.
This move for independence by the
foremost artists of the screen is the
most important and beneficial step
that has been taken in the motion pic
ture business since it assumed its
leadership in the amusement field.
1t means for the motion picture pa
irons that Mary Pickford, Charlie
Chaplin, Douglas Fairbanks and D.
W. Griffith will hereafter be enabled
to produce pictures in their own way.
They will make fewer pictures than
they have made before, and this in
itself will be an advantage. Hereto
fore they have been obliged to turn
out a certain number of productions
within given period and consequent
ly have not had time to perfect their
work.
Thus, under the leadership of the
screens foremost artists is the perfec.
ton of motion picture entertainment
in sight.
The first picture made under these
ideal conditions is ''His Majesty, the
American" The management of the
Strand Theater feels great pride IN
having secured this production for It's
city. The Strand Theater has always
endeavored to choose its attractions
with discrimination and regardless OF
expense. In the case of ellis Majesty
the American" knowing what Doug
las Fairbanks film will be when the in
imitable Doug" can put his best into
it, the theater management feels, and
Justly so, that it will offer to its pa
irons Friday and Saturday what
should prove to be the very height OF
screen entertainment.

IS YOUR PLEDGE PAID
THE ALvATION ARMY

On September first all pledges to
the Salvation Army are due.
Facing the immense task of home
service reconstruction throughout
Florida, Georgia, North and South
Carolina, in the aftermath of the war,
as it strips for action to befriend the
poor through the coming winter, an
urgent appeal has been issued by the
Salvation Army that pledges due
September first be met promptly.
"The Salvation Army kept faith
fully its trust in the world war and
stood the acid test" declared Brida-
der A. w. Crawford, in charge OF
the Salvation Army work in the de-
partment Of the southeast, with Offices
in Atlanta, in his appeal for payment
of these pledges.
"And l believe the people who SUBJ
scribed to our Home Service Cam
paign Fund last spring will keep
with the Salvation Army" he added,
The work this fall and winter will
be four-fold. The full quota of SOL
diers who went to war will be back.
Thousands will ned jobs and the help
ing hand of the Salvation Army.
1.-The Salvation Army stood by them
t othe last on the battle line-it will
not desert them now"
Throughout the country the activi-
ties of the Salvation Army in recon-
struction fairly whiz. Industrial
homes, rescue homes, the Salvation
Armmy stores where the poor may
supply their needs for mere pit
tance-or for nothing-and all of its
other charitable institutions practi-
cally are being rebuilt.
The Salvation Army drained its
every resource in rushing to the aid
of the country and the succor of its
soldier boys, when the war broke out.
Now it must go back and weld to-
gether the links it dropped in its chain
of endeavor at home.
Payment of the pledges that fall
due on September first means the
keeping of double trust-fulfllment
of the Salvation Army's duty to man
kind and the keeping by the people
of the department of the southeast
of its promise to the Army.

She'd he the Vainest sort of elf.
Golly but wish that you
Could see her pretty eyes O. blue,
Lighting up her face o pink "a
Bound you couldn't see a wink -
Blinded me no little bit
Afore l got plumb used to it.
Her hair is sorter reddish brown
Never seen the likes, / boun' !
Looks jest like it mought have been
Made 10 ketch the sunshine in.
And her lips are rosy red
A shade Jest deeper than her head;
Ought TO see her poke 'em out,
Half a smile and half pout
Makes me want to grab her--so,
And hear her holler, Let me go T.
When she's mine-soul, body, breath.
Bet ! hug her nigh to death!
Wish she'd hurry up and say
81 recken So" and set the day.
But she's jest leetle shy
And ] sposen that is why
She keeps me begging fer her hand
And sparkling her to beat the band.
When / ask her to be mine
She kinder drops them eyes divine,
Shakes her curls. and lows right low:
~'Recken you'll always love me So?
Blast my buttons, course l will
Always love her fit to kill
Glad she is a country lass
And never seen a looking-glass
Fer if she had I'm feared she'd wish

A CONSUMERS STRIKE

Why not general strike against
the high cost of living?
We have had and have been threat
ened with strikes of almost every con-
ceivable class of workers, even includ-
ing the actors and funmakers, and
all seem to be founded chiefly upon
extravagant living costs.
But we have never yet heard of
even a threatened strike on the part
of the general consumer.
The suggestion of it is contained
in the advice which is being daily
given to the consumer with regard to
economy. He is being urged to avoid
waste. He is being warned against
.extravagant buying. He is being told
to follow the example of Ogden Ar
mour and have his last years shoes
half-soled. 1t is suggested that he
taboo luxuries and get down to the
necessities of living.
Suppose, for instance, the price of
some article should be exorbitantly
high. He could say, We will dispense
with that article until the price gets
within reach?"
Then the price of that article
would drop.
But it would require organization
to do this SUCCESSFULLY.
But how is the consumer to be or
gained? Who is to attempt the task?
1t may be impossible, yet things seem
ingly more impossible have been done.
When a particular class of workers
wants more pay or shorter hours, they
organize to get it; and whether they
secure their demands or not, they &C
complish something in the preserva-
ton of a pretty fair balance.
Is it not reasonable to assume,
therefore, that with a consumers or
ganization, it would be possible to
hold down prices to a reasonable fig
ure, despite the effort, from whatever
source, to push them to the point of
extortion?
1t would, at least, be interesting
to give it try-out.-Atlanta Con-
stitution. A.&.

"AARON FINISHED PAYING
FOR HIS LAND LAST WINTER

''Aaron finished paying for his land
last winter" This was the remark 1
heard about one of my young neigh
bors the other day, and the phrase
kept coming back to my mind. had
MT known much. about Aaron, but
after this remark, / felt that ! knew
a good deal about him. And | kept
thinking about him.
Aaron is evidently young man OF
ambition. He did not inherit land,
but he did inferior develop-a
wholesome desire to get ahead in the
world. He was not content to remain
a landless tenant. He had ambition,
which is about the first essential for
progress.
In the second place Aaron had in
dustry. A man may have all the am
bition on earth, but it will take him
nowhere without industry.
And in the third place, Aaron had
thrift. That is to say, he knew how
to take care of his money after he
made it.
Of these three things L feel conn
dent--namely, that Aaron has ambi-
ton, industry, thrift. If he had lack
ed any one of these three qualities,
| should hardly have heard about his
rising to the dignity of freeholder.
And | strongly suspect that Aaron has
another asset equally valuable as any
of the other three-namely, good,
sensible wife. While Aaron is dill

and looks well to- his herds" his wife
