LOCAL THEATRES BAN
PICTURES OF BEAUVATS
NAMED STILLMAN CASE

That the Fred K Beauvais picture
entitled "A Lonely Trail" featuring
the Canadian guide sensationally
named in the Stfllman divorce case
will not be exhibited in any of the
theaters operated by companies sub
sidiary to the Southern Enterprises
Inc, in the six southeastern states, is
the announcement issued from the
general Offices of the company hero
today. This action was taken after
a conference with heads Of all subsid
larry companies, despite the fact tina
the picture was recently passed ap
proved by the New York state board
of censorship.
The fact that BeauVais was named
as correspondent by James StilIman,
New York banker, in his suit FOR di;
vorte and in this manner gained ma.
tionwide notoriety, Is assumed to be
the reason for this decision
1.-The policy Of this company in tho
past, declared ?. F.eFreeman, gen
eral manager, has been to avoid ex
plotting individual actors OF pictures
which would place false premium
upon prejudicial notoriety. We prefer
to present actors who have come tc
the screen solely through dramatic
ability and merit. That policy will
be strictly adhered to in operating
through our subsidiaries in the flu
ture.
THE Democratic responsibility Of
selection and rejection must remain
with the public despite the actions Of
legally constituted board of cen
sors and in presenting pictures in oul
theaters, we shall at all times be
guided by our best judgment regard
ing public opinion.
Theaters operated by the Lakeland
Amusement company, subsidiary tt
the Southern Enterprises Inc, il
Lakeland, Fla, are the Auditorium
| and Casino theaters.

or all the work that concerns the
American Red Cross today, nothing is
more important, more primary in its
responsibility than the care OF our ex-
service men and their families. This
applies equally to enlisted men in the
regular force of the United States.
and to the great number of ex-service
men who were disabled over there
fighting for the greatest country on
tho globe. The warning OF the surgeon
generals Office that we will not reach
the peak of disability among ex-service
men before 1926, is worthy Of very
careful consideration.
The Mason County Chapter OF the
American Red Cross has, and is, per-
forming a great duty. There has never
been a soldier or his family in want.

ization that has not received assist
ance. There has never been. a "trav-
cling" soldier that is one going from

piled TO this chapter, that has not re-
ceived its assistance, its sympathy and
its encouragement. They are always
well fed while in the jurisdiction of
this chapter. and given enough funds
to get to their families and homes.
Just one day last week there appear
ed at the headquarters of the Mason
County Chapter OF the American Red
Cross in Maysville. Kentucky. lady
who was bent and old. Her soldier son
lived in the far distant state Of Wash
ington. He had sent her a ticket in
order that she might come TO him and
spend her last days, but she had no
money with which to purchase her
meals on this five day trip. The Mason
County Chapter OF the American Red
Cross supplied that good old mother
with funds sufficient to supply heI
with meals on that delightful journey
This is but one of the hundreds oi
instances where the Mason County
Chapter OF the American Red Gross
has come to the assistance of the sol
diers and their families.
We feel II a duty to express our per
sonal hope that the good people o
iMaysville and Mason county will ex
press their confidence in their Masol

Cross in unmistakable terms. and civ
literally to this wonderful organiza

Torn BY Great Quake Sat
urday-Towns Wiped
Olt.

Santiago, Chile, Nov. 13.-Fourteen
hundred persons lost their lives in a
devastating earthquake and tidal wave
which rent the coast of northern Chile
Saturday, according to most accurate
estimates today.
Starvation, pestilence and exposure
are claiming additional victims in the
wake of the disaster and relief cara
vans are pushing - aid homeless in
habitants of the stricken territories.
Communication with the shattered
towns along the coast from Valparaiso
to Antofagasta, the district which bore
the brunt of the shock still was dis
rupted. but couriers brought word to
the capital of whoie villages leveled by
the quake, with survivors, wounded,
lying by hundreds in the streets.
Vallenar, Copiaro and Coquimbo,
three little coast towns. suffered most
from the shock. They were inundated
by rush of the Pacific which follow
ed the first earth tremors.
But little villages farther back in
the hills appear also to have suffered
terrible loss of life and destruction of
property, which it may never be pos
sible to estimate. There were reports
that whole communities werd bed
out.
The largest quake, felt over the en-
tire South American continent and
registered on seismographs all over
the worl6, lasted for over three hours,
although it was perceptible to human
senses only two minutes.
