When a sneeze can be photographed
1t is time to wonder where motion pic

is a farce built on sneezes. 1t had
successful run on Broadway. and gen.
orally was thought to owe its success
to it's clever dialogue. But Marguerite
Clark has translated 1t into a panto-
mimic farce WITHOUT sacrificing any OF
its humorous appeal. 1t Is a notable
piece Of work. showing that. as be

Sneezes which are injected into the
action apparently at the wrong time
are responsible for a happy un-
scrambling of considerably scram..

and does credit to Miss Clark's talents
as a comedienne. The bill at the Metro
politan in other respects Is equally
good. Pictures Of the preliminaries to
the Dempsey-Carpentier fight. show

WORKING FORCE
AT G. S. L. REDUCED

Monday the reduction in working
forces Of the Great Southern Lumber
Co., was put into effect as had been
previously announced and as a re-
suit approximately 800 men were lay
ed off.
At the recent meeting of the board
of directors it was announced that
the market was so bad that it would
be impossible to operate at a profit
and but rather than have the mill
close, the plant will be kept in oper-
alton SO long as it did not lose money.
Sales Manager Townsend returned
from an extended selling tour and
reports that the stock of the retailers
are very low, but that none can be in
duced to buy. There are people in
Bogalusa who are inclined to feel
a little optimistic however, as it is
believed that with the opening of
spring that there will be a good de-
mand for lumber. The market for
the product of the BogaIusa Paper
Company has shown no Improvement
during the past week but it is expect
ed that within the next thirty days
it will brighten. Just as soon as there
sufficient demand to operate this
plant without a loss it will begin
operation.
