Will Build New Church.

Chester, May 17-The First Bap-
tist church of Chester, the Rev.
Robert G. Lee, Ph. D., pastor, has
decided to erect a magnificent new
schurch building. A committee has
been appointed to confer with ar
,chitects and submit a plan to the
congregation at an early date.
Since DR.. Lee came to Chester
something more than month ago,
the congregation, already large, has
grown wonderfully, and at practi-
cally every service there has been an
overflow. The lack of room is felt
in all departments, but particularly
in the Sunday school, which has been
growing marvelously.
1t is hoped to make the new struc-
ture one of the most complete in
every respect in this section of the
state.

Famous Beauty Appears i'm Great
Drama at the Dixie Next
Monday, June %.

In the attempt to secure proper
realism and atmosphere in the great
photo-drama, THE Golden Trail, "
which comes to the Dixie soon,
Louis Moomaw, who directed this
photoplay secured two professional
pugilists to stage fight during the
course of the play. The pugilists
were in first class condition and
had been boxing on the Pacific
Coast for some time when they
were secured to stage the big fight
scene in THE Golden Trail"
The fighters rehearsed their parts
for several days until they were able
to go through with it from start 80
firish With great realism, in the
meantime not giving any hint of
brutality to the audience. Dramatic
critics throughout the country have
greatly criticized the fight scenes
in photo-plays as being entirely too
insincere in their portrayal, while
seeming to accentuate the brutality
of the encounter. The fight scene
in The Golden Trail is heralded
as being far above the average in
that particular line.
The Golden Trail features the
famous film beauty, Jane Novak
with the supporting cast including
such well known film celebrities as
Jack Livingston, Bert Sprcrte, Otto
Matiesan and William Dills.
