cation at a meeting held recentlv

hlbits of this season. President Skin
ner of the Association, Secretary G.
5. Wilcox and other members of
The Poultry Association will give their
entire time to make this one of the
best Poultry exhibits in the South
ern territory.
Fitzgerald already has a Statewide
reputation for fine poultry through
its poultry breeders who have in the
past taken all of the desirable priz-
es in the exhibitions at Jacksonville.
Montgomery, Charleston. Augusta
and other cities. The Poultry show
will probably taken the place of an
Agricultural Fair this fall, as the Pc
culiar situation in Fitzgerald is not
propitious to holding an extensive
Fair this fail. The management of
the Poultry show are being impor-
tuned to add department for the
display of Ben Hill county farm
products to their exhibition. A gen.
eral meeting of the association will
be called to meet here shortly when
definite plans for the Poultry show

al feature decided upon.

My attention has been called to an
article appearing in the Ocilla Star.
copied in the Fitzgerald Herald last
week to the effect that the Governor
had vetoed the bill placing Irwin
County back in the Cordele Circuit
and had vetoed the companion bill
placing the Solicitor General of the

The author >of this article certainly
was misinformed in the matter, and
IN view of the fact ti,at it places me
in the attitude of endeavoring to
change the present status of the Of
t1ce of the Solicitor General without
having given the public an opportun-
ity to be heard, deem it advisable to
say that no bill was introduced to
place the Solicitor General back on
a Tee basis, nor was one ever contem-
plated either by myself or Represen-
tat1ve Luke and l never had any dis
cussion with any one about such
bill nor ever heard of it until the ar
ticle above referred to-
The companion bill to the one plac-
inv Irwin County back in this circuit
provided that Irwin County should
pay to the General the same
salary as paid by the other counties

spy duty. He is arrested by the COL
onel, and thruout the remainder Of
the story, tho dutiful little wife
makes many sacrifices in her attempts
10 save her husband from death. The
eliminating situation is one of the
most dramatic ever presented on the
silversheet.
The roles are enacted by an all-star
cast, including Agnes Ayres, WaAua
Hawley, Lewis Stone, Jack Holt, Rob-
ert Cain, Walter HERS, Robert Brow
er, C, Fl. ieldert, Josephine Crowell

WHAT WOMEN LOVE"
AT THE REX TODAY

Far down thru the glowing opales-
cent water OF Honolulu Bay, two Iig-
ures were graphing to the death.
One was the gorilla-like figure OF a
man; the other the slender figure OF
a girl.
Twenty feet above them the barua-
cled keel Of a tramp schooner wal
lowed in the swell and cut off the
light Of the moon.
1t was the strangest fight that was
ever waged. The man was fighting
for the girl and she fought against
him, with strength born Of despera-
ton, for her honor.
The incident is to be wildly de-
picted tonight at the Rex theater
when Annette Kellerman appears in
her greatest modern comedy drama,
what Women Love-"
Bernard McConville, author OF
many Of the Mary Pickford, Norma
Talmadge, and Lillian Gish screen
successes, wrote a wonderfully dra-
matte story around Miss Kellerman'
ability to live under water and the
gripping battle scene is just one high
light In the amazing production.
What Women Love-" First Ma

FARRELL SAYS LEONARD
STANDS ALONE IN CLASS
BY Henry L. Farrell
United Press Correspondent

New York, Jan. 81 Many a

Leonard is forced to vacate the

In fact, New Workers believe that
through lack of good foes to conquer,
Benny will be forced eventually to
mingle with welterweights or join
Jack McAullffe a.: retired unde-
feated champion.
When the champion recently dis
posed of Richie Mitchell, the classy
Milwaukee contender, he swept aside
the last and only dangerous con-
tender in the class.
Mitchell is far superior to Willie
Jackson and Lew Tender, the "vocal
CHAMPIONS; he is more courageous
inasmuch as he agreed to meet Leon
ard for a sum less than one-half of
what 1.-The most logical contenders"
wanted. Mitchell is good enough to
be within a hairs breadth of the
championship. In any other day but
Leonard's he would be king Of the
class.
So, in knocking out Mitchell,
Leonard proved his greatness.
A veteran of nine years experience
at twenty-five year of age, Leonard,
in the opinion of many old-timers, is
the peer of Joe Cars, considered the
greatest of all ligltweights.

He showed that wise head rests
/ on his shoulders ir the Mitchell bout
when, after having knocked the Mil
waukee boy down three times he was
felled for a full count by wild
swing of the desperate boy.
The champions pride was hurt, he
was amazed at finding himself on the
floor for the first time since he won
the title. A less crafty boxer would
have jumped to his feet with forced
smile to show that it was an accident
or something. Freddy Welsh did that
in his fight with Leonard and he lost
the title.
Perhaps Leonard thought Of that
when he went down. At any rate he
stayed down for the count of nine
and came up recovered.
After the bout, the champion de-

Revelation" which l have felt was
my most satisfactory picture thus
far. The story simply told itself. !"
Never before has Mime Nazimova
been provided with story that gave
her greater opportunities for use or
her genius than in this production.
In the dual role Of pampered Star
who thinks only OF her own success,
then as the gifted but inexperienced
actress who rises to unexpected
heights almost against her own will,
she makes full use of her real beauty
and her ability to portray a sympa-
thetic part cOnvincingly.
1t is the tale Of woman Of u1
disputed genius who, having climbed
to the top rung OF the ladder OF sue
cess, suddenly finds that there is
something else to be attained. The
opportunity to picture this something
