 HID CORN TANK

To locate the booze supply thought being vended by Holbert Harshall, an aged, blind negro running small store on the Conway and Damascus road north of Blaney Hill, Deputy Sheriffs J I. Summers and J. A. King penetrated a camouflage which ordi- narily would have escaped detection. Marshall had his whiskey concealed in a stone jar placed under his kero sene tank and reached by trap door which was hardly visible when the tank was removed. Flooring cut to make the door had been carefully matched and the opening could not be seen except on close scrutiny.
 Marshall was arraigned before Jus tice G. M. Easterwood on a charge of having whiskey in his possession, and was fined $100 and costs. He proms- ed to quit traffic in whiskey.

Kipling Approves Cinema
Version of His Own Story
Despite Censorial Mutilations in American
Version, Noted Author Expresses
Qualification.

Rudyard Kipling has seen his
own screen version Of without
Benent of Clergy and authorized
a cable to Paths In which he pro-
nounces tho picture "a great ar
tistic achievement" The cable adds
that Mr.. Kipling is especially
pleased with the remarkable work
Of Virginia Faire."
He made this statement despite
tho fact that the title of the pic
ture has been made irrelevant
through the mandate Of American
censors. who refused to approve
the kipling version as unit for
American morals.
As a special and deserved COM
plment to the celebrated English
author, Paul Brunei arranged a pri-
vate showing OF the picture for
Mr.. Kipling prior to its release for
public exhibition abroad. The per-
formance was given at the Al
hambra in London. Lord Beaver
brook was among the invited guests
incidentally representing impor-
tant cinema and newspaper forces
throughout Europe. Many of the
leading social, literary and artistic
celebrities of England also were
present. for London has been on
the qui vive for this event ever
since the original announcement
that Paul Brunei had at last in
duced Rudyard Kipllng TO become
a motion picture author, it Is re-
ported.
No one will understand better
than motion picture exhibitors that
the result of the Alhambra showing
Of without Benefit of Clergy" sets
precedent unique in the history
Of picture production. A picture
author recognizes the screen result
OF his labors and expresses his ap-
proval. When this author happens
to be Rudyard Kipling, past mas
ter OF the most delicate nuances Of
literary art. the force OF the prece-
dent increases accordingly and the
producer finds he's in q class by
himself. The answer seems to be
that Kipling proved himself q
capable picture author. that Paul
Brunei was able to live up to his
promise to Kipling, and that RAN
dolph Lewis-charsed with the re-.
sponsibilties Of the authors tech
nical expert assistant and SUPER
visor OF production-proved as cap.
able as he is conscientious
How punctilious Mr.. Brunei is in
observing these amenities between
