At the coroner's inquest, the girl
testified she shot and killed Wood
lock when he attempted to attack

came to her bedside and embraced
her, she drew the revolver and fired.
Alter the shooting, she surrender

Ursula Broderick was only 12
years old in 1916 when she shot and
killed her father, Thomas P. Brod

,Woodlock's death, but will be tried
later. Both Woodlock and Broderick

BROTHER AND SISTER
NOW PRAISE TANLAC
Albert Steiner Says He Is Now
Able To Do Twice The Work
He Could Do Before Taking
Tanlac, And That His Sister
Gained Is Pounds.

Talking about things that help
people, l have just received a letter
from my sister in Waterloo, Iowa,
telling me she has gained sixteen
pounds in weight by taking Tanlac, ,"
said A. B. Steiner, AGO East Page
street, st. Paul, Mnn., recently.
MY sister was on visit to me a
short while ago, and as she was suf-
fering from stomach trouble some
one advised her to try Tanlac, which
she did, and as | saw the great bene-
fit she was getting from it | decided
to try it myself, for | had been
troubled with my stomach for the
past two years. | had a very poor
appetite, and the little l did man.

the pit of my stomach and sour. /

and have the worst sort of pains in
my stomach, and at times | had such
bad attacks of heartburn | would

a lot of trouble, and | had such in

| could hardly bend over. To add
to my other troubles, about two
months ago | began to suffer with

PLAYGROUND
EXPERT COMING
Trained Mans Services
Offered Americus for
3 Months Free

A number of representative Or
ganizations in Americus Monday re-
quested that a representative of the
American Playground association be
sent oAmericus for the purpose of
supervising Americus playground
and recreation center and to assist
in the training of some one to carry
on this work later.
Mr.. Settles, of New York, rep
resentative of the American Play
ground association, met with the COM
mittee and it is thought that he will
recommend that such a supervisor be
sent.
Among those present at the meet
ing at the Chamber of Commerce at
noon were Mrs. J. w. Harris, Jr.,
and Miss Emma Mae Borum, repre-
senting the Woman's club, and the
board of control of the local play
ground; John Ansley and John Shelf
field, of the board of education; W.
W. Dykes, president of the Rotary
club and chairman of the board of
education; Gordon Howell, COM
mandant of the local post American
Legion; J. Ralston Cargill, chairman
of the Rotary club playground com
mittee; W. S. Kirkpatrick, Joseph
Perkins and Lovelace Eve.
Mr.. Settles was carried out to look
over the playground and community
club house and was most enthusiastic
over its possibilities.
"There is a fund left over from
the old War Camp Community SER
vice funds that has been appropriat-
ed toward assisting communities in
establishing Fairgrounds and commu-
nifty recreation centers in those cities
that ask for this aid," Mr.. Settles
said. "a request must come, how
ever, from the local post of the
American Legion, for the money was
given for use of the soldiers and it
is now being devoted to this work as
being the most direct way in which
we can render service to the eX-ser-
vice men. If we sent an expert here
he would not only supervise the play
ground construction, the training of
some competent persons to take up
the work after he had gone, but also
he would assist the legion in putting
its recreation program under way.
Every soldier is directly interested in
community centers, Fairgrounds, etc.
for these things mean more perfect
manhood and woman, both mentally
and physically.
eve found one-third of our man
hood rejected in the war because of
physical disability. We must correct
this and community Fairgrounds and
recreation centers will correct this
unfortunate condition. In one Geor-
gia city there were 81 men who had
had the use of such a playground or
recreation center, and all of these
men except one passed the war de-
partment's physical tests"
The services of this expert will not
cost anything except the furnishing
of office space and the assurances of
local cooperation in putting over
program such as is already contem-
plated by the local board of control
of the playground and community
center.

''YANKEE DOODLE IN BERLIN


Marie Provost, the beautiful little
actress who has the leading woman s
part in the new Mack Sennett FIVE
part super-comedy yankee Doodle
in Berlin" shows unexpected genius
as an emotional actress. The play is
an uproarious satire on the fondness
of the former kaiser for the ladies.
Marie plays the part of little Bel
gian girl who was held prisoner by
the German soldiers.
The most remarkable imitation of
the young man who was, until the
armistice; Crown Prince of Germany
is given in Mack Sennett's new FIVE
part super-comedy yankee Doodle
in Berlin" by Nal St. Clair. Mr.. St.
Clair has achieved a most astonish-
ingly convincing makeup and has
faithfully studied the mannerisms of
the Crown Prince. The resemblance
stops right there however. Mr.. St.
Clair is the son of a famous English
artist. The picture will be shown at
the Opera House Friday, matinee and
night, and as an extra "Mack SEN
nett's Bathing Girl Revue"
