Matinee at 8;l5; night performance

That Hearts of the World has es-

Griffith production may be gained
from the fact that it has been shown
I in Chicago, New York, Boston, Phia-
delphia, and other cities, upwards of
more than six hundred times, at $500
prices. That it is most unusual
achievement Is evident from the an
nouncement that David Lloyd George
and ether high officials of the British
and French nations not only gave Mr..
Griffith their most hearty co-opera-
ton in the taking Of the principal
scenes, but personally appear in the
play.
/ Contrary to the general opinion
/ this latest of the Griffith work is not
war play. 1t is described by Mr.
Griffith himself as "The sweetest love
story ever told" 1t was written by
Castor de Tolignac, and translated
from the French by Captain Victor
Marier. The story is in two parts, the
first revealing the life or an ordinary
French family before the war, and
the second the experiences Of these
people when the great conflict ended
in victory for the Allies. +
The majority of the scenes in
Hearts Of the World are described
as great moving paintings that might
have been conceived BY the worlds
greatest artists, their beauty and
grandeur far exceilng anything that
has ever before been attempted, even
by the master hand of the indomitable
Griffith. This is the first time that
Hearts Of the World has been shown
at popular prices-twenty and thirty
cents.

WIRE YOUR HOUSE;

FOR TWO MONTHS
COLUMBIA TO HAVE REAL MET.
RoPoLlTAN ELECTRICAL SER.
VICE IN FUTURE.
HOUSE WIRED ON TERMS
No House is Too Old to Be Wired for
the Safe and Convenient Lighting
system-Electricians Boosting the
City.

Columbia's live wire electrical men,
the Columbia Water & Light Compa-
ny, Frakes Bros, and the O. X. Elec-
trical Company, have gotten together
and decided to give this city real
metropolitan electric service, a SER
vice to be found only in the large cit
les of the state.
One of the first things that they did
was to contract fbr several thousand
inches of adyetisiAg space in The Her
aid in order that lthey may keep the
people of Columbia and Maury county
informed as to their plans.
For the first thitty days of the year
house wiring campaign will be wag-
ed, and a Splendip inducement is of.
fered Those wht do not have cleo
tricity are promised full supply Of
electric current absolutely free if they
will have their House wired. Easy
terms are provided also, and the wiz
ing will be- done in accordance with
the table which appears elsewhere
in this edition of The Herald, SO it
is seen that by making a small cash
payment, and small monthly pay
ments for one year a house can be
wired on splendid terms.
Attention is called to the fact that
no house is too old to be wired. The
electricians of these companies can
perform this task without "littering
up" the place, without noise or dirt.
Just at this time as the summer
months approach, does electricity ap-
peal to the housewife. She is reliev-
ed of the heat and smell OF the oil
lamp. The time that she spends in
cleaning the lamps, if figured at a
reasonable price, would soon pay for
The wiring Of the-house.. 4.
But this house wiring campaign,
which is taken up in detail in the ad.
vertisement, is but one of the many
campaigns which will be waged dur
ing the year. Every week the advan-
tages of electricity over the old meth.
od of heat and light. will be driven
home.
Columbia electricians are to be con.
graduated upon their enterprise,
They are doing their part to make
Columbia one of the best lighted little
cities in the state. To realize this
ideal, all that will be necessary, will
be for those who need wiring to call

DEALERS EXPECT
GOOD DEMAND FOR
MULES MONDAY
VOLUME OF BUSINESS WILL NOT
BE AS LARGE AS ON LAST FOUR
FIRST MONDAYS.
DEMAND FOR LOCAL TRADE
Southern Requirements Have Been
Filled, and Sales VIII Be to FIJI the
Demands Of the Farmers of Middle
Tennessee.

Columbia mule dealers are antici-
pating a strong local demand for
mules here Monday, and are confident
that the splendid prices which have
prevailed for the past several months
will be fully maintained. 1t not an
ticipated that the Southern market
will be represented by full attend
ance of buyers Monday, as the de-
mands in that section were filled on
the local market in December and
January of this year.
Local dealers feel confident, how
ever, that market will be found at
good prices for all of the long cared
animals brought here Monday. 1t is
not to be expected that the volume OF
business here Monday will be any
thing like that OF the past four
months, when during that time APP
proximately $3,50O,OOO worth of the
hybrids changed hands on Columbia
streets.
Mayor Cherry, while not anticipat-
ing any great rush here of buyers and
handlers on Sunday night has made
provisions for handling those who ap-
ply for lodging. Parties who have
spare rooms which may be placed at
the disposal of mule men are request
ed to get into communication with
the mayor, and as fast as the visitors
arrive they will be assigned rooms.
Again does the mayor request that
on Monday. all automobiles and other
vehicles be kept off the square, in or
der that the market may be uninter-
rupted

the needs of the schools. It is praetl-
cally certain that the committee VIII
recommend a substantial increase in
the salaries of teachers for the coll-
ing year, otherwise the school officials
frankly state that they are not gong
to be able to secure qualified instruc-
tors. 1t is not improbable that the ad-
vance will be as much as twenty-five
per cent, which is not big addition
to the already meagre salaries OF the
teachers. For example the many
teachers who receive $50 a month
under this advance would get only

of the eye, but this morning improve
ment was noted and it is believed now
that the sight can be saved. The boy

with the point of it. Their many

con will be announced At the ini-
tial meeting 'on Wednesday, ballots
were passed upon which the members
indicated their preference for the
hour and day. There was wide diff

selected, but it is certain that neither
Monday nor Saturday will get APPROX

On the question of the hour it was
generally agreed that twelve to one
O'Clock would be most acceptable and
ii is practically certain that this hour
will be agreed upon. The committee
headed by w. s. Beasley, chairman.
with Carlton G. Fry and Hugh Todd
