 The French attitude, in general, towards China's proposals became known this afternoon.
 First, Frances desires to earnest ly aid China in realizing her aspira- tions territorially, politically and economically.
 Second, France would surrender Wei Hei Hei and Japan to surren- der Shantung and the Port Arthur Peninsula.
 Third, France will not be unwill- ins to the surrender of extra ter ritorial privileges provided others are willing to do the same.

We visited this week the splendid

The Waukeenah road and acres near
Mr.. D. H. Gilbert's residence He has
planted only the finest varieties, such
as the Scbley, Stuart, Frotchcer,
Pabst and Delmas. Thirty acres of
these trees are twelve years old and
in active bearing, and the others
soon will be. There are nearly H.
400 trees in all.
In twelve years more Judge La

of million pounds a year, with ia

pounds to the tree, while individual
trees here have borne as much as six

His grove has seven hundred of

the highest prices of all.
His pecan nursery contains fifty to
sixty thousand young trees and many
thousand budded in 1918, and TWEEN
ty-five thousand to be budded this
summer. Judge Lamar could not fill
his orders this season.
The bearing trees seem to be each
equal to the other in size, each tree

trees promise large crop for 1919

GRIFFITH LATEST PICTURE
GREATEST OE THEM 4

Unusual interest attaches to the
opening of the coming engagement
in this city of D. W. GriAFith's great
spectacle, Way Down East" which
will be seen for the first time here on
Jan. CT at the Rylander Theater,
Way Down East" will be presented
here for period of two DAYS.
If such be possible, this latest mas
terful production by the genius of
the screen bids fair to eclipse even
the enormous vogue enjoyed by "The
Birth of a Nation" Now being offer
ed in the leading cities of the land.
Way Down East is attracting ca
pacity throngs and seats are sought
weeks in advance.
This perturbation of the famous
stage success furnished by Lottie
Blair Parker and Joseph Grismer
goes much farther than the original
tale. Mir. Griffith has begun where
they hated. He has not made it
provincial thing; attempting to ex-
plain nothing he has welded a theory
of eternal love and in so doing has
removed his people from time and
period Possessed of a vision and
mentality too great to be handicap
ped by anything he has brought
forth an epic far more than clever
1t has the ring of genius. The SIM
pie fun of plain people is brought
forth in greater measure than the
stage play version could ever hope to
attain and offers geen contrast TO the
sufferings and woe of Anna Moore.
her hopes and struggles Probably
the greatest cast ever assembled for
a motion picture production was en-
gagged in the making of this work
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1921-12-24

and it ends in thrilling climax of
spectacular scenes amid the veering
flaws of New England blizzard and
the explosive breaking of a river ice
gorge, all of which enthrall as only
Griffith effort can move audiences.
The tender moments, the tragic cpl
sodes. the laughable situations and
the stirring scenes are accontuated
by unusual orchestral accompani-
ment, pronounced the most ambitious
yet attempted in the theater.
