Scene Shot
While the dancing was in progress
about an acre of spectators found
their way back to the studio, back of
the stage. presided over by Carl
Rountree, where a couple Of scenes
were ''shot'-with blanks, I fan
cy--to show the populace how it was
done. 1t was particularly interest
ing to see an actor, supposed to be
half of a rather exuberant sofa-scene,
continue talking away to himself aft
er the rest of the sketch departed.
and Mr.. Ginsberg gave the scene,
after Miss Ostriche had behaved as
much as possible unlike her ornitho-
logical namesake-and why should
she hide such a darling little head,
anyway. as one rapt schoolgirl sug-
gested.
Then Miss Marion Ivie Harris dane
ed-Atlanta girl, student at Woodber-
ry, pupil of Mrs. Spiker-and gave
remarkable exhibition considering
that the photograph was in competi-
tion part of the time with the Scotch
gangsome in the offing and part of
the time with the Hanson Male Sex
tet of saXophones, and so forth.
Other solo features of the program
were Miss Bonnie Connors, Hieland
dancer; Jimmie Howard, xylophone
expert; Bobbie Brollier, tenor, and
Catherine Murdoch, soprano
I regret to inform palpitant pub

CITIZENSHIP BILL
SIGNED BY GOVERNOR

MANILA, P. l., May 26.-The Phil
ippine citizenship bill passed by the
last legislature has been signed by
Governor General Harrison. A section
of the act which permits the acquisi-
ton of Philippine citizenship by Orien-
itals who are specifically barred from
, becoming citizens of the United States
must be approved by the president Of
the United States before it can become
a law.
This would allow Chinese and other
! Orientals who are domiciled in the
3, philippines at present to gain citizen
ship, but would not permit the impor-
tation Of Chinese labor into the islands.
On account of the scarcity Of labor
in the sugar cane and rice fields of the
Philippine islands. there have been
several attempts to pass through he
legislature a bill to allow the impor-
tation of Chinese laborers, but these
have failed so far

Considerable excitement was caused
Saturday evening about six o'clock by
genuine one-horse runaway. The
horse belonged to a colored man and
was hitched to buggy in front of A.
Cohen's store. Without any visible
cause the horse began to jump and
plunge and succeeded in getting him
self very badly frightened. In a very
few seconds the buggy was dragged
across the street over turned and de-
molished while the horse with what
little harness was left on him ran and
for aught we know is still running.
The only whole piece picked up by
the owner was a right new buggy
whip.

FRANK M. TAYLOR


kWrlCten by Rev. r. L.Weldon)
Frank Morton Taylor, son of Mrs.
Mary u. Taylor OF Raymond, was born
May 31se, 1855; Giad September 2Sth,
1929 ssins thirty.one years, three
months and twsnty.eight days of age.
On January 7th, 1920, he was united
in marriage to Miss Eta Kicker of
Jennings, La. A happy union cut short
by the hGled Of death.
Besides the heart-broken young wife
he leaves his widowed mother, six
brothers and two sisters, and many
other relatives and host of friends
to mourn his untimely death. His
brothers are, Roy and Harry of ST..
Martinville, La; Carl of Raymond; +;
Fred, his twin brother, and Ned, of
Ada, Oklahoma; and Ernest Of Colo
RADIO. His sisters are, Mrs. Frank ia
cobs, OF st. Martinville and Mrs. Finice
Watkins of Colorado. These were all
present at his funeral services except
Ernest and Ned and Mrs. w atkins.
who could not get here at the time.
He was converted in early life and
united with the Methodist church. A
few years ago he put his membership
in the Church of the Brethren at Roam
oke. His membership was there at
the time of his death.
The writer has known him person
ally for the past seventeen years, and
knew him to be young man of un-
usual amiable disposition. He was hap
py, cheerful, big hearted, open in his
life, kind to everybody, Industrious
and self sacrificing. He was always
kind and thoughtful of his mother. 1t
was said at the time of his funeral
by his pastor that Frank never per-
mitted his mother to want anything If
he knew it. From the time of his
fathers death, some twelve years ago,
Frank had taken care of his mother.
When our country was threatened
with trouble with Mexico he was one
OF the first to go to the border. He
served there until the outbreaking of
the E uropean war. He enlisted again,
and although he was never sent across
he rendered efficient service as
training officer in Camp Pike until
honorably discharged after the close
Of the war
The funeral services were held in
the Methodist Episcopal church at
Raymond Wednesday afternoon, Sep
tember 29th., in the presence of a
large concourse of friends and rela-
tives. Rev. r. l.. Weldon, of Welsh.
a former pastor Of the deceased, was
in charge Of the services, being as
sisted by the present pastor, Rev. R.
G. Swanson, of Elton, La. The re.
mains were laid away in the Raymond
cemetery.
To the sorrowing loved ones we
would say in these words of another:
'Your dear one is absent, but cannot
be far,
While safe ON the bosom of love,
That holdeth you also, and hope as
a star
Is shining so brightly above.
Oh, faith can be patient, whatever the
time
To wait in the shadow and pain,
While nearer is coming the glory
divine,
To bring you together again."
