Jimmie's Playhouse.

Some months ago an announce
ment was made that Mr.. Jimmie
Boyd would open new photoplay
house in Union City and that the
equipment would include valuable
pipe organ. Mr.. Boyd was resident
of Union City for number of years.
He was associated with the Gem and
the Frances for a portion of the time
as trap drummer. Otherwise he was
engaged in booking orders for cloth
ing and with popular pressing club.
He closed out here and located at
Blytheville, Ark. There he opened a
picture show and business began to
pick ups He was Joined afterwards
by local capital and then the Boyd
enterprises boasted of two shows at
Blytheville. Time moved along and
also the Boyd shows. They opened
at other points and now they are
open in Union City.
The house has been in the hands
of mechanics for several weeks. The
old floor was removed anc new one
affording an elevation
for the chairs. The screen is one of
a new type specially made for bring
ing out the lights and shasows, the

walls of the building are stained and

EASTER SUNDAY
CHURCH SERVICES
Easter Observed in Song and Service
At the Churches.


Easter Sunday in Union City wal
a typical bright day, little mildel
than usual, and the churches wer,
all comfortably filled.
At the Methodist Church a very
interesting musical program was rem.
dered. A visiting singer, Nil
Gladys Baker. was very pleas
ant in voice and presence. She
sang the old and ever inspiring
theme, the Holy City. in the very
natural way, always most impress
i've. Mr.. Happel. of Albany, N. Y,
was at the organ in some special Sc
lections.
The pastor, Rev. Mathis, spoke
from the text, "If man die shall he
live again." bringing out the thought
that the inspiration of Gods word,
the voice of man and all nature pro-
claimed eternal life. Here and there
only we find the agnostic, the sci
enlist, and ahe fails in the light of
divine truth, and in all else save a
little learning. Nothing is ever de-
stroyed, and the most effectual mute
evidence of life everlasting is coinci-
dent with Eastertide in the return
ing flowers and verdure of spring.
At the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church very beautiful Easter mu-
sical program was planned by Mrs.
Napier, assisted by the singers, the
organist, Miss Louise Adams, the
violinist, Dr. Verdun, the pianist,
Mrs. w. H. Harris, and the saxo-
phone, Ed Reeves Adams.
I The program appeared last week,
Including some numbers of Easter
origin, from famous musical writers.
These were cereful1y drilled, and
the male chorus as well as the entire
ensemble made an impressive and
inspiring Easter song service.
Rev. Cunningham spoke with an
Easter message of an exceptionally
appropriate nature. He is always
and convincing. Rev.
Cunningham is practically young
man and one of the finest characters
in the ministry. His forbears were
men who nodded thought and set an
example of the true christian spirit.
The minister lives an honor to these
good people and an influence at the
altar for God and his church. He is |
a man of mental breadth and well
ordered logic, and his church finds
him with a singleness of purpose and
thought in the active field Of en-
deavor.
At the Baptist Church last Sunday
vt both morning and evening serv-
ces was given musical treat. The
pastors sermons were also inspiring.
There was record attendance at the
Sunday school.
The song service program was pub
ished last week, very extensive
of Easter offerings and
t was indeed interesting and edify-
ng.
The minister spoke on the signifi-
ance of the occasion. He referred to
he women at the tomb and took up
he life of Christ and his ministry,
he cross, the redemption and glori-
cation of mankind.

.SHARKEY GETS
THIRD CHANCE
TO MAKE GOOD
Learns Broadway Is
No Training Ground
for Him.
BY HENRY l.. FARRELL.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Nov. Broadway is
the poorest training ground in the
world.
Even in these rather tame days,
what is left OF the old bright lights
of the gay white way does not tend
to condition an athlete.
The "old timers" tell this but the
youngsters don't always listen.
The little bantam, Jack Sharkey,
the most popular boxer in New
York, didn't listen and he lost two
great chances for the crown of the
little fellows.
Proving the exception to the old
line about opportunity knocking
only once, Sharkey gets this third
big chance tomorrow night in
Madison Square Garden when he
goes into the ring with Johnny
Buff, holder Of the featherweight
and bantamweight titles.
Two years ago Sharkey was just
one of those little fellows who can
be found hanging around any gym
nasium in any town. He had
some stuff but he never had a
chance TO get it out.
Sharkey left New York and he
was never missed until he made his
overnight Jump into fame-by
beating Jimmy Wilde, the British
fyweight champion. in Milwaukee.
When he left his home town
Sharkey was a five buck" sparring
parner; when he came back he was
a $4,000 attraction.
His thrilling 15-round draw with
Joe Lynch in the Garden is still re-
membered and the events that fol-
lowed are still being held up as
examples by managers with young
prospects.
Having more money than he ever
dreamed of before. Sharkey hit
He liked the lights and
he had bunch of friends who liked
to sit under the glare with him.
The public demanded another
Sharkey-Lynch go and it ended in
4 knockout CT a sadly uncondi-
toned boy Lynch, the victor and
the clean liver, went out and got
the title.
Sharkey could have had another
bout with Lynch but Tex Richard
wanted him to prove himself He
failed TO train for what he thought
was a Set-up and he was again
beaten by Roy Moore.
The Broadway morale finally hit
him and he started training. He
admitted that the odd timers" were
light and he went back TO work.
His third chance for the title is
ust as good as the other chances. |
All the other bantams have been
for the first crack at |
Buff but fate was kind TO him and |
lie is the lucky one
