THE FALL ING MARK

Specuatos in foreign exchanges deserve no
sympathy when they lose. because they are simply
gambling, withept Ne incidental performance of
any useful service whatever. This is especially true
wiih1egard to those who have invested in the
Germanf mark. They seemed to have notion
that Germany was under some SORT of obligation
70 restore this currency to its par value. and
tempted BY the low price and the immcasesyoIpme
of these notes. they snapped them up briskly.
1t is pretty safe guess that the mark never will
be worth any more than it is today. Germany has
issued billions of them, without any provision what
ever for their redemption And as Germany is
above all else cautious in the matter of economies
and finance, it may be safely assumed that Ger
many has never contemplated redemption at par
On the contrary there is abundant precedent
for refusal to redeem deprecated currency At
the close Of the Revolution in America, the Con-
tinental currency was as worthless as the German
currency of today. Not worth Continental"
was familiar expression No attempt was made
to restore these war notes to their face value The
treaty of Versailles makes no provision for keeping
up the value of the mark. So long as this cur

WHICH. we may assume, is not utterly repugnant
tothe present German conscience; and Then, when

spectators the world over will have an interesting
collection of paper to remind them of their shat

community spirit IN Eahelanos auto tehfAef camp
finds expression in rules for camp cleanliness, camp
sanitation, such entertainment as can be provided
and other little attentions that are calculated to-
make a sojourn here thoroughly pleasant and agree
able. Lakeland can secure much favorable adj
vertising from this source.
Still another evidence of this community spirit
cropped up Thursday when one of the vast in
vadng army of dollar grabbers tried to put one
over on the Chamber of Commerce through the
medium of improbable advertising. In ths in
stance the slick individual sought to sell space on
the back of a restaurant menu. Some business
concerns had already fallen for the smooth
talk and had authorized the taking Of space but
later on the artist bumped up against member
of the Chamber of Commerce who demanded that
the solicitor show his permit from the managers
Office Then there came the usual line of talk to
the effect: Are you going to let the Chamber
of Commerce do your thinkinga Are you not yet
out of the infant class and able to use your own
Judgment" And lot more of that sort of bunk.
But eventually Mr.. Slickone put in his appearance
at Chamber of Commerce headquarters seeking a
permit to clean up somewhere about 5000 of good
Lakeland money at an outlay ofnrobsbEx not more
than $40. Improbable advertising was written
all over the scheme and to the everlasting credit of
the business man whose business was being used to
put the proposition over. that gentleman fatty
refused to allow his name to be used and further
stated that if the menus were printed they would
not appear, in his. restaurant That was the SEN
sibe, patriotic and loyal thing to do; to stand by
his organization for the protection of his fellows
and the good name of his community. Through
this one agency of the Chamber of Commerce
alone thousands of dollars will be saved to the
business men of Lakeland. The main thing to
remember is to ask any solicitor who puts in an
appearance with this outside scheme if he or she
has permit from thee Chapber Of. Commerce.
Right then and there begins the movie fade-aWay
process the solicitor keeps his pet scheme. the
merchant his coin. A full understanding df tie
community spirit and its practical application will
cause the promoter of Improbable advertising to
fight shy of Lakeland Like the professional
beggar this class of people seems to know where
the easy picking is to be found. Let us unite in
putting up the bars so far as this community is
concerned. ~

Pictures.

Tho war for and against screen pic
lures, having it's beginning now ev-
erywhere, especially in the Metropo-
lis, promises come good things. There
is no general effort anywhere to fight
the industry as an American amuse-
ment enterprise, but to check the
growth of immoral pictures and to
prevent the INSCRIPTIONS promoters
from dominating the picture field.
AS it is now the spoken drama is
reduced until there is hardly any
thing of merit to be seen outside the
city of Now York Around that city
: reYolves the dramatic world. There
fore the screen play to the country
at large is dramatic and education
al work, which affords abundant
opportunities for recreation and
pleasure.
How important it is then that the
standards of filmdom be be estab-
lished and recognized for their true
value, and that picture managers and
scenario artists be made to under
stand that filth and froth will not
be tolerated. In other worls, the
qualifications for men of this charac-
ter should embrace an admixture of
moral conscience as we'll as artistic
talent.
1t is worth whilo to state that the
local picture managers have been
giving the Union City public some
really good pictures-pictures that
appeal to the better impuloes as well
as the taste for strong dramatic
works. One very notable instance of
this kind was the Heliotrope film
Monday night at Jimmie's Playhouse.
In this there were three very talented
artists and some tense moments, all
moving around charming girl and
a beautiful motive. The picturiza-
tion was also fine. Then Mr.. Cox
gave us a first National last week
with a northwest setting, some good
strong points and characters, having
to do with smuggling furs, righting
of wrongs and respect for the law.
Union City can be congratulated
in great measure upon the pictures
shown here.

PASTOR ON TRIAL FOR
DOMESTIC DIFFICULTY
Rev. H. G. Ryan, of Fulton, Before
Church Committee.

Church Committee.
The Rev. HI. G. Ryan, of the Full
ton, KY Methodist Church, was
placed on trial before church COM
mittee to-day on charge of chas-
tizing his wife unjustly. Sessions
were held behind closed doors in the
First Methodist Church. Only one
witness, the attorneys and the com
mittee members were permitted to
remain.
Habeas corpus proceedings filed In
| Dresden recently were prelude to
the church trial These were for the
custody of the young son of Rev. and
Mrs. Ryan.
The charges before the church
trial board are not criminal, but ap-
pear to be result of incompatibility,
domestic quarrels and small town
gossip.
Witnesses at the session included
Mr.. and Mrs. J. J. Owens, of Fulton
Mrs. R. H. Beadle and the Rev. r.
H. Pigue. Among the witnesses will
be AL Vowel, M. M. Vowel and Luz
ther Vowel, brothers of Mrs. Ryan.
The trial committee, appointed by
Bishop Atkins, of North Carolina, is
composed of the Rev. T. w. A. Baker,

Atkins is in charge of the affair.
The Rev. J. M. Jenkins, of Buntyn,
Tenn, appears as attorney for the
church and Attorney L. G. Crump, of
Dresden, appears for the Rev. Bass.
The committee appointed by Bishop
Atkins brought in it's verdict at 4
o'clock after a hearing that lasted
over the greater part of two Gays and
developed much evidence of sensa-
tional nature. The verdict was: "Hav-
ing fully considered all the testimony
