 'I call your attention to a few express sions in the these verses said Mir. Jones, and then with his elucidation of the text
 Mir. Jones talks with amazing rapidity there is a secret to his speed in speaking; he never pauses for a breath for he has learned how to talk while inhaling, as well as exhaling Few stenographers could take him; he admits that himself
 Your first impression of the evangelist is that he is talking against time; he clips his words short; and fairly pushes home ,ne facts he wishes to impress and while he has none of the Billy Sunday manner isms. he has his own Bob "Jones-isms Which mark him as very different, a very original and very magnetic speaker.
 His voice-so absolutely southern--never sg' or an "r" or a I'd" intrudihg it's way into one word that he utters-he would never have to tell anybody where he is from-for the south is marked Tn capital letters, so firmly and so insist ently upon his speech and manners that there is no guessing contest"
 For half an hour (and that's one of the many good things about the Rev. MT. Jones, he doesn't preach long sermons) the great evangelist "held the mirror up to nature" as 1t were, and barred the least of the sinner and the backslider alike, in his soul-inspiring appeals in the name of the great Jehovah, that name which he has brought before vast au- 4 At.. ....I.A T DF1 !, persuasive eloquence and has swayec many a hopeless and isparing human be- ing from the we'll beaten paths of wicked world to the straighter and mar

"Pollyanna" is Mary Pickford's first picture for the United Artists, the or ganization composed of Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin, D. w. Griffith and Douglas Fairbanks. In this her first production for the United Artists, Miss Pickford, critics declare, has scored the greatest triumph of her career. You have seen Mary Pickford in Daddy Longlegs" and her other successes, but critics declare that Mary Pickford has never come to the screen in a greater production than "Pollyanna."
 This is the first time that this pop ular story and stage play by Eleanor Porter has come to the screen, and the picturization carries all the charm of the story and the stage production.
 Dr. Frank Crane, noted writer and philosopher, after writing a long article on "Pollyanna," recently concludes by
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-02-02

saying Don't miss this attraction Pollyanna is the apostle of gladness and it is truly a miracle play
 'Pollyanna" is the glad play, and it is brimful of sunshine and happiness. There is always something to make one glad, is the "Pollyanna" philosophy. and the charm and pathos and comedy of the picture has caused newspapers in the larger cities to declare that Polly anna" is one of the greatest produc- tions that has come to the screen.
 In the large cities this production is now being presented and from re- ports reaching Birmingham attendance records are being broken everywhere. Arrangements have been made to han dle record crowds al the Tianon this week. and it is urged that you attend the early morning performances.
 The first performance will begin at 10 o'clock this morning.

For the Good of
 the Community

)AOOAOE Dy congress or the water 1 Bill has served to recall the great developments along this line in the United States during recent years, and the wond- erful impetus it has given to industrial progress where hydro-electric power is made available.
 In Alabama, where something over 100000 horsepower of electric energy is now generated at one plant, with several smaller stations supplementing this by few thousand horse power, cities and towns and industrial establishments are enabled to secure current at less cost than could heretofore be obtained from steam plants. By means of long distance trans mission lines Birmingham, Anniston, Gadsden, Albany, Decatur, Huntsville and score or more of other cities and towns in the state are supplied with hydro electric power.
 At Muscle Shoals, on the Tennessee river, something over 100000 horse power of hydro-electricity will be gen. erated as soon as the dam now under con- struction and the power plant contem- plated are built, which it is estimated will be within the next two or three years. This will practically double the present hydro-electric power of the state.
 Alabama is especially fortunate in hav- ing within it's boundaries the fuel and the water to generate power for all purposes in quantities sufficient to supply any pos- sible demands for the next hundred years
 There has been some talk in the past of electrifying portions of certain railroads in Alabama. According to estimates made by engineers 10000 horse power of electric energy is necessary to operate 100 miles of railroad, this estimate being made for roads traversing mountainous regions. As there are about 5000 miles of railway in Alabama, based on this esti- mate, 500,000 horse power would be re- quired to operate the entire mileage
 
 The Tennessee river at Muscle Shoals, it is estimated, is capable of developing approximately 100000 horse power. Over 100000 horse power is now devel- oped at Lock 12 on the Coosa river, sev- eral thousand on the Tallapoosa and smaller quantities on other smaller streams. It is probable that 100000 horse power could be developed in the state. That is twice the amount necessary to operate the present railroad mileage in the state.
 With the development of oil in Ala bama, which engineers engaged in drill ing and prospecting say is only question of time, another fuel item will have been added to the states list making Ala bama one of the greatest power produc- ing states in the union.
 With coal in almost unlimited quanti- ties and hydro-electric power now avail

 "The fool hath said in is heart there is no God" quoted the evangelist, adding that only a fool could make such an ut terance, and then he declared God is

 would never know God"
 Do you know God?' asked MT.

My teacher who taught me my A B Cs, and they began with
 the alphabet then, and not like they 1 do now, told me that A was A and B lwas B. and I believed her. And when my mother told me that Jesus Christ 1 was the Son of God and my Sunday school teacher told me the same thing and the preacher repeated it over and
 over in the little church where I went when I was a boy, I believed it and 1 thank God since then I have found out l that they were right Jesus is all the 1 God I want. If there was. any bigger | God. I wouldn't know what to do with Him.
