WHY NOT BEAUTIFY
CHURCH YARDS

We see a great number of an
nouncement in the papeFs calling
together various communities to
clean of grave yards. which work
cannot be commended too highly. A
suggestion has been made by one in
crested in seeing Weakley county
made a most beautiful place, that
move be started to beautify the
church yards. To a close observer
it can readily be seen that many
country and town church yards pre-
sent the appearance of neglect. The
briars, weeds, bushes and old stumps,
dead trees, logs and brush removed
the gullies filled and sodded, and the
roads Strengthened and widened,
hitching posts made, posts set to
prevent driving close, are some of
the things that, if done, would add
greatly to the looks. Also little
whitewash on the trees, fences and
hitching posts would add further.
August is the proper time to do
such work, as we'll as the time to cut
off fence rows, ditch banks and
road sides, as we'll as to have past
ures moved. If this is done at this
time they will look good for nine
months, while such work done in
spring only looks good for two
months. Why not start a move and
form committees in each community |
to see how much work of this kind
can be done during the first and
second week in August? Will you
make the start, Mr.. Reader?

awaken every loyal American to the
richness of his heritage. The pict-
ure also asks the question, What of
the future?" Shall American ideals
triumph in the future as they have
in the past? The modern story
shows the brave way in which a
modern American family meets the
recent great crisis in our history.
In the league of nations the long
sought ideal of world brotherhood
toward which mankind has been
working since the dawn of history?
This question can be more intelli-
gently answered after seeing the
great photoplay, "The Birth of
Race" One of the most thrilling
and spectacular of screen dramas, it
is also one of the most timely. Ev-
cry true American should see it in
order to understand better the forces
which have been at work throughout
the history of the world. Besides
its historical theme the picture con-
tains charming story Of love and
adventure.
Perhaps no great photoplay has
ever been prepared with more ear
nest care, more historical research,
more truth and more eager effort
for dramatic effect than "The Birth
of a Race" While this drama pict-
lures the great events of history, it
is not, primarily, war picture.
War is used as a background on
which to show the progress of the
world to a great democratic peace.
All lovers of the picture drama will
want to see this latest and most
brilliant photoplay as its production
is an event in the history of the
screen drama.

Creation Down to Sign

FROM GARDEN OF EDEN
Dramatic Story of Present-Day
American Completes Great
Historical Photoplay
Production.
FROM GARDEN OF EDEN
SHOWS HERE AUG. II

Coming to the Kozy Wednesday
''The Birth Of Race" which has
been referred to as the greatest
photoplay on earth. The picture
complete in every detail, abounds
in beauty and much care has been
given to detail. The production is
divided into two parts, the prologue
taking civilization from the Garden
oof Eden to present-day mode of
living. The picture, as an historical
production, is one of the greatest
ever produced and can only be COM
pared with D. w. Griffith's mighty
spectacle" Intolerance" The scenes
were produced at an enormous out
lay and the producers feel that they
have been justly repaid for their
efforts by the wonderful results
which they have gotten.
No picture has ever had a wider
appeal to all classes than has the
Birth of a Race. In the historical
prologue there is everything that
appeals to historians and students of
the Bible and history. Not one
minute detail has been overlooked
by the directors, and all of the
scenes are historically true.
A modern love story with an ap-
pealing theme completes the picture
and makes it the MASTERPIECE that it
is. George LIE Guerre, well known
to the legitimate stage, and Jane
Grey, a beauty of note, play the
leads in the story and they play them
well. Not once does the interest
lag and picture leaves an impress
sion of time well spent.
From the dawn of creation, down
through the ages, to the signing of
the peace treaty in the hall of
mirrors at Versailles, mankind has
been struggling for true democracy;
for brotherhood, for peace. This is
the theme of the epic photoplay,
"The Birth of a Race"
To portray this brilliant drama
of romance, tragedy and achieve
ment, from the Garden of Eden to
the present day, the producers have
selected only those great historical
episodes which marked the advance
ment of the great ideal. A dramat-
ic and thrilling story of the present
day and of America completes the
picture.
The first part of the production
begins with the wonderfully beauti-
ful scenes of the Garden of Eden,
and show the happiness of the first
nan and woman.
Then dlscOrd and violence come
nto the world, and mankind is pun
shed by the first great calamity,
he flood. Noah and his family are
spared and the worlds history be-
rims anew.
Coming down the ages we find
he Hebrew race in slavery to the
Egyptians, and we see a great leadl
r, Moses, arise to lead his people
o the promised land.
Centuries pass, and Rome rules
he world. Again cruelty reigns.
he Christ is sent to warn men
gainst their sins, to teach them to
owe one another, to preach the
of man. This Man of
he people is crucified, but His
remain to guide the world.

the dream of brotherhood is only a
dream, until Columbus and his men,
sailing westward, discover a new
continent which becomes the home
of democracy.
But even in this land of freedom
appear oppressors and oppressed.
Another great emancipation, Abra-
ham Lincoln, appears to free the
slaves.
In Europe, in 1914, the war lords,
led by the Kaiser, are in conference.
They plan to enslave all Europe.
The modern story introduces us to
an American family, Fritz Schmidt,
an American of German birth, owns
a great manufacturing plant. An en-
vcy of the Kaiser persuades him Sc
cretly to sell this to the German gov
eminent at the opening of the war.
At the same time the elder son re-
turns to Germany, where he has been
educated, TO join the army.
When America enters the war all
is changed. The daughter of the
family goes abroad as a Red Cross
nurse, and the younger son wishes
to enlist in the army. But the poor
father has become so entirely tool
of the German government that he
cannot save himself. His son goes
away in anger, weds the girl of his
choice, and goes to the army
Schmidt and his wife are left alone,
in the terror of discovery.
During the young mans absence
his young wife gets position in the
Schmidt works, which are now MAX
ing defective shells for the allies,
and she discovers that something is
wrong. She learns that she is in the
midst of traitors and German Sc
Icret agents. She gather what infor-
nation she can about their meth
DDS, but her work is discovered and
she must fight for her life in order
to escape.

 DECLARES WAR ON BROTHERS

Boston, Mass, July 22.-The black
 listing Of profiteering retail stores
 throughout Massa chusetts as a result
 of the action of the Massachusetts
 Commission on the Necessaries of
 Life in suggesting the naming of in spectors in each city and town to in
 vestigate. exorbitant prices, took on
 decisive attitude yesterday. The office
 of the, commission in the State House
 announced yesterday that some
 twenty Mayors in various cities of the State and about eighteen towns
 have already appointed inspectors in conformity with the advice of Gen era1 John H. Sherburne, chairman of the commission. It was pointed out that more towns would up to now have taken similar action were it not for the necessity of a meeting of the Board of Selectmen before an appointment could be made.
 The notification that inspectors had
 been appointed in 3s cities and towns of the State led to the sending of questionnaires to the places where the appointments were made to com plete the work of appointment and
 start the inspectors on their work.
