On removing hte woman, rather

The Mt. Zion public Schools will
open Monday, October 31st, with
Prof. A. C. Moore, of near Lost Mt,

open any school in the county the last
Monday in Oct, where every school
child would be so released from farm

on the opening date.

THEATRES
Crescent Attractions Please All

For sheer artistry of production
1.-THE Devil" which is the current
offering at the Crescent theatre, must
be listed among the best of the sea-
sons ~photoplays.
For superb dramatic interpreta-
ton, George Arliss in the title role
has given to the silent stage q per-
Torrance as wonderful as his de-
lineation of the same part on the
speaking stage. We venture to say
that THE Devil" in six reels will
prove an ever greater success than
1.-THE Devil" in three acts.
To relate the components which
go toward making The Devil' such
an amazing production would take
the edge off your enjoyment of the
picture. We say this in all sincerity,
for the settings, the situations, and
the sensations of 'The Devil" de-
serve a better fate than to be re-
vealed in cold type.
Hurry up to the Crescent theatre
and see Harold Lloyd.
Now or Never is Harold Lloyd
at his best. From time to time the
comedian appears on the screen to
the final fade-out, Now or Never"
hardly gives your face a chance to
relax from a roaring laugh into a
grin.
The action. except for a few open
ing scenes, takes place on a train.
His efforts to amuse a p%recocious
four-year-old girl left in his charge,
to put her to sleep, and then to get
her dressed, are as full of human
interest as they are of humor; while
his antics in the Mushroom are a
riot!
